Initial reaction

Fantasy Football Scout contributor Andy reacted to the Double Gameweek news on X. He stated he was thinking about using the Free Hit for it.

Using the Free Hit in Gameweek 25 would allow users to stock up on Manchester City assets, consider Brentford picks and bring back the likes of Mohamed Salah, Son Heung-Min and Trent Alexander-Arnold.

However, other managers will be happy to hold onto the Free Hit with big bigger Blank and Doble Gameweeks ahead.
