FPL Gameweek 7 Preview - Was Wildcarding a Mistake?

Hiello again, everybody.

We've barely been able to stomach FPL, after we both played our wonderful wildcards. But, here we are again, gutting it out anyway with another preview.

Full piece here:

Alternatively, as always, here's a shorter TLDR


Is your FPL season over after a bad wildcard? 

Not at all!  I feel your pain, my wildcard cost me 38 points this week , but don't lose hope. The top 10k and 3 million rank are still within 100 points of each other!

 Current point totals by rank:
10k - 457 points
1m - 399 points
3m - 369 points

Best Upcoming Fixtures 

  • Man City: FUL (H), wol (A), SOU (H) – Great run, but outside of Haaland, rotation risks are high
  • Brentford: WOL (H), mun (A), IPS (H) – Mbeumo is the top target here. Pens, talisman, and cheap
  • Everton: NEW (H), ips (A), FUL (H) – Not great options, but McNeil and Calvert-Lewin are decent budget picks.

Buy/Sell

Plenty more detail in the piece, on these! But, here's a quick summary:

  • Buy: Mbeumo, Solanke, McNeil
  • Avoid: Jackson, Raul, Leicester defenders
  • Maybe: Luis Diaz, B. Johnson, Delap

Captaincy Corner

Saka vs Southampton, or trusty Haaland at home 
It’s a tight call this week, but don’t stress too much!

It’s still early days, so play smart with your transfers and captaincy choices. You’ve got plenty of time to turn it around! 

That's It

For the fellow (non-Palmer especially) wildcarders out there, it can't get any worse... right?

Let's all find out together, in Gameweek 7!
