Early Chips = Huge Mistake 😱 GW17 Wildcard Is FPL's Cheat Code 🎯 Best Strategy For All Chips Watch: youtu.be/EemUitJT0jI So much talk revolves around using chips early. Here, I explain why waiting until Gameweek 17 for the wildcard offers the best chance of success.

It's a great recasting

All this hype about Trai Hume being an OOP defender at RW. He played RW eleven times last season. In those games: - One goal - zero assists - one clean sheet - zero defcons I understand the temptation at £4.5m, but the evidence suggests there are far better options out there.

Avoid Bruno! 😱 Defcons = Maverick 🔥 Elite Midfielder Rotation 🎯 New Draft & Strategy 🤔 Watch: youtu.be/-E5vDxudprY Bruno Fernandes is GW1's biggest trap. Defcon Daddies allow a unique, aggressive strategy - how to reach GW12 with EVERY chip, by only changing ONE player.

Early Bench Boost Drafts 🎯 Why Saving Chips Is The Best Strategy 🤔FPL 26-27 Watch: youtu.be/NcDHYtN_W7w The early bench boost is the hot topic. No Haaland or Bruno may maximise the chip. However, the best play is not to play it at all.

-3 taken. Dest ➡️ Digne Medina ➡️ Porro Yamal ➡️ Bellingham Vini Jr ➡️ Gordon Quiñones ➡️ Oyarzabal Clean sheet shield active. Still debating another -3 to replace Hakimi. Captaincy: Dembele, Oyarzabal, Bellingham, Messi (if I remember 🤪😭). 12.4k as it stands.

Missed Deadline = Rank Disaster 💩😭 Kane Or Haaland? 🤔 Budget Bargains 💲 Watch: youtu.be/_RaB65aCxAg I left Messi on my bench. Instead of being ranked 1.6k, I am down to 12.5k. Heartbreaking. This is my strategy to save the situation.

Missed the deadline by two minutes. Left with zero-point Dest as captain & Messi on the bench. Would've been about 800th in the world right now. Now, I'm down to 7.4k. Fantasy football is a cruel game at times. Never had a run like this before, and for it to end like this is savage. Proper gutted.

2.5k! 🔥9 Point Captain - Not Enough?! 🎲 Transfers - Triple England? Dembele Out? 😱 Watch: youtu.be/h9ZioEZ7X3E Nine points is a poor captain's return. You have to take be brave and twist. Kane or Bellingham? The answer is probably both - even if it means no Dembele.

My transfers were: Emi Martinez ➡️ Rangel Dumfries ➡️ Kounde Balogun ➡️ Quiñones Bellingham ➡️ Lamine Yamal Not *that* confident on a Mexico win, but feel now is the time for Yamal. Captain: Hakimi ➡️ Mbappe ➡️ Vini ➡️ Quiñones ➡️ Yamal ➡️ Dest ➡️ Messi ➡️ Manzambi. 2,199 OR.

Top 1k! 🔥 R16 Transfers - Kane Essential? 🎯 Secret Differentials 😱 Watch: youtu.be/kWXF5WlzQ_g The turnaround to R16 is quick, so we have to be ready. This is my team, why I'm signing the players I will, and why I'm likely ignoring Kane. World #1 still feels possible.

No late changes or tinkering, went with the draft from the video. 329 points OR: 2,012 48 points off World #1. Not sure if I can do it but will give it my all. The current #1 outscored MD2's world #1 by 50 points in MD3, so it is definitely possible. All the best.

676th With Mbappe, Kane, Salah & Messi To Go! 🔥🥳🚀 + My Knockout Rounds Strategy Watch: youtu.be/dUZjCpPXsLU Even after taking a -9, I've so far matched the wildcarders. With some huge players still to play, it could get even better. Early strategy thoughts for R32 too.

189th overnight, despite taking a -9. Manzambi & Hakimi paid off the hit big style. Only Dumfries & Dest today, so it will surely drop. Salah, Zico, Mbappe, Kane, Messi & Medina after that though. Will likely stick on Vini Jr. 15 points is a huge score. Still in dreamland tbh.

-9 taken. Probably the end of the lucky streak, but it was fantastic while it lasted. Coufal ➡️ Hakimi Theo Hernandez ➡️ Dumfries Olise ➡️ Zico Bellingham ➡️ Manzambi Balogun ➡️ Kane Gives me a captaincy run of Manzambi, Vini/Saibari, Dest, Dumfries, Salah, Mbappe, Kane, Messi.

Has FPL content become too commercial and oversaturated? I really enjoyed discussing this with my good friend @trig-talks-fpl.bsky.social in this video 👇 🎥 www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDbl...

160th now. This surely has to be the peak, probably of anything I ever do in fantasy games. Find it hard to believe it's even real. Even if the rest of the tournament is red arrow after red arrow, even being here briefly feels very special.

247th in the world. Still got triple France and Bellingham to play, if required. Can't believe this is happening, especially after the FPL season I've just had. Dreamland.

This rank will never hold, but I had to share it because it might never happen again. Considering I only decided to play an hour before the MD1 deadline, this tournament has turned out the be the perfect palette cleanser. I feel my fantasy confidence returning.

Ah sod it, sick of @trig-talks-fpl.bsky.social going on at me so I've put a team in. Seen a couple of random names mentioned, but otherwise it's PURE VIBES ahead of becoming Andy Solio next season. Not creating a league so don't ask, but join Trig's league instead: play.fifa.com/fantasy/join...
