Gameweek 29 Team Reveal (Subject to Change)
Notes
- No clean sheets for Bournemouth defensive assets in either of their DGW fixtures meant I secured another green arrow in GW28, up to an OR of ~13K.
- With my Free Hit not in play for blank GW29, my transfers this week are fairly straightforward as I take my first hits since GW21.
- I will be taking a -8 to transfer out the rotation-prone Pervis Estupiñan, Bukayo Saka and Dominic Solanke for Pedro Porro, James Maddison and Ivan Toney, giving me a total of ten players with a game in GW29.
- I prefer removing Saka over Phil Foden as I have slightly more value tied up in the latter; I’m also expecting Saka’s price to drop further as FPL managers sell him ahead of Arsenal’s away fixture against Manchester City in GW30.
- I’m planning to wildcard in GW31, so can always bring Saka back then if needed (and hopefully for a lower price).
- I will therefore be lining up in a 3-3-3 formation for GW29 with Alphonse Areola in goal and Alfie Doughty, Porro and Charlie Taylor across the back.
- My midfielders will be Jarrod Bowen, Maddison and Son-Heung Min, with the latter the stand-out captaincy option this week.
- I could remove Foden for an additional -4 but don’t feel it’s worth it given the available replacements.
- Upfront, Carlton Morris, Toney and Ollie Watkins will lead the line. Morris was one of the biggest xG underperformers in GW28, so I wouldn’t worry about bringing him in on Free Hit or holding if you transferred him in last week.
