  • #6: Free Hit 9?
    Sep 24 2024

    This week on Expected Grass, Nima (@FPL_Nima) and Simon (@analytic_fpl) kick back to chat about FPL wilcarding 6. Nima's just hit the wildcard button and is mulling over his options, including whether to bring in Bruno Fernandes. Simon, meanwhile, drops a casual bombshell about potentially using his Free Hit in Gameweek 9.

    The guys toss around ideas for team structure, weighing up pricey defenders against stacked midfields. They also touch on short-term punts versus playing the long game, and try to make sense of what's going on at Manchester United.

    It's an hour of chill FPL chat, some laughs, and a reminder that in this game, you never really know what's going to happen next.
