00:00FPL Game Week 26, final team selection decisions.
00:03In today's video, we're gonna go through,
00:05hopefully, everything you need to know
00:07to get your team ready for Game Week 26.
00:09We'll look at players to buy,
00:10we'll answer some of the key questions
00:12going into the upcoming game week.
00:13What should you do with players like Jal Pedro
00:15and Cody Gakpo?
00:16We'll also look at the big assistant manager questions
00:19this week.
00:20Should you move off Unai Emery?
00:21Should you move off Arnie Slott?
00:23Should you go for a table bonus manager?
00:25And should you do any of this for a minus four?
00:30What is up everyone?
00:30FPL Harry here.
00:31Before we dive in,
00:322,000 likes is the aim.
00:33Subscribe if you are new around here.
00:35And actually, before we go and talk about
00:36any final big talking points in FPL,
00:39on my video from yesterday,
00:41there were two questions asked
00:42more than practically any other FPL question is.
00:44First of all, apparently some people were saying
00:47the audio was different.
00:47Where's the mic?
00:48The mic is here.
00:49It just has to live on a little stand
00:51because I'm not at home until the next video,
00:53which will be on Sunday.
00:55I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to do that.
00:57So, I'm going to leave it at that.
00:58Which will be on Sunday.
00:59Of course, there'll be the deadline stream
01:01on Friday afternoon with a Friday deadline.
01:03So, there will be that.
01:04The mic is here.
01:05The mic hasn't changed.
01:05So, hopefully it is all okay.
01:07And the other thing was,
01:08apparently I spoke so quickly in that video,
01:11I tried to get it out as fast as possible.
01:13That's because there were a few children in our hotel
01:15who seem to be playing a game at the moment
01:17in the afternoon where they run around
01:18and knock on people's doors.
01:20And I can't have that in the background of the video.
01:22So, I'm trying to record in a really quick window
01:25before they come back.
01:26I don't know how else to deal with the situation.
01:28So, that is why I'm trying to speak so fast.
01:30But, let's have a look at Game Week 26.
01:32To start off with some key questions.
01:35The first one is,
01:36I think probably the most big question we've asked is,
01:38would I sell Cody Gappo or just bench him
01:40and play Morgan Rogers?
01:42If you're not free hitting in Game Week 29,
01:44I would just sell Gappo.
01:46Because you're going to have to sell him regardless.
01:48There is a Champions League draw on Friday.
01:51And the reason that's important is,
01:53one of the big fixtures that you might want Gappo for
01:56is Game Week 28.
01:56They have Southampton at home.
01:58But, they're going to have Champions League
01:59in the midweek before and after that fixture.
02:02Plus, the Carabao Cup final after that as well.
02:05If they get drawn against PSG, which is possible,
02:08and then they might play Wednesday in the Champions League,
02:11away at PSG, Saturday against Southampton,
02:14and then Tuesday against PSG again,
02:16there is a possibility that Gappo doesn't start
02:19that Southampton game at all.
02:21Now, they've dropped a few points recently.
02:22So, maybe he does start and they just go
02:25and try and play 60-70 in every game.
02:27But, it does add a little bit of caution
02:28and a little bit of worry in my mind.
02:30So, if you get that draw, particularly if they draw PSG,
02:33do I think he's going to play?
02:33We'll talk about the injury update.
02:35I think there's a big enough doubt in my mind
02:36that he maybe won't play.
02:38So, I would be looking to sell Cody Gappo this week.
02:40Morgan Rodgers is not a bad option.
02:42I think Chelsea at home is actually quite a good fix
02:44to the way Chelsea are defending and playing at the moment.
02:47But, I would be looking to future-proof your team
02:50a little bit more with probably selling Cody Gappo.
02:53In terms of the best replacement,
02:55Mateusz Kunia is the one that I would go to.
02:56If you're going to free hit in game week 29,
02:58then I would go with Mateta.
02:59But, of course, he blanks in game week 29.
03:01So, if you're not free hitting like me,
03:03then I would go with Mateusz Kunia.
03:04A few others that you could potentially have a look at
03:06are Mahmoud, Chris Wood, and Beto
03:08if you need a cheaper option as well.
03:10And the final one is basically,
03:11is there anything worth a minus four this week?
03:13Now, there will be some of you watching
03:15who have the injuries to the likes of Ahmad.
03:17You might have Gappo.
03:18You might have a few others in there.
03:19You might have Jal Pedro,
03:20who we don't think is going to start
03:21against Southampton anyway.
03:22And in which case, taking a minus four
03:25to fix your team is something that you can do.
03:26However, there aren't that many players at the moment
03:29that I think are worth a hit this week.
03:31It might benefit you further down the line.
03:33Again, they're a caveat,
03:34that if it gets you an extra player for 29
03:36and you're going to have to take a hit regardless
03:38to get to that extra player for 29,
03:40then yes, you could do it.
03:41But whether it's an assistant manager
03:42or whether it's a player, it's just a transfer you like,
03:45I don't think there's very much I would do
03:46for a minus four this week.
03:48And the final big decision, big question of the week
03:51is what to do with your assistant manager chip.
03:54So to answer this very simply,
03:57most of you have Unai Emery or Arnie Slott,
03:59and that is what about 90%,
04:01maybe even more of assistant managers are on at the moment.
04:04The first thing to say is I wouldn't sell either of them
04:07for a minus four to anyone.
04:08I wouldn't take them out.
04:09They're both favourites to probably win their game,
04:11Aston Villa or home to Chelsea
04:13and Liverpool away at Manchester City.
04:15You'd probably predict the way that the teams are playing
04:17that Aston Villa and Liverpool
04:18would probably win those games.
04:20So I wouldn't sell them for a minus four.
04:22In terms of would I sell them for free,
04:24I wouldn't sell them for free
04:25unless I was going for a table bonus manager.
04:27So Mikel Arteta is actually the highest ranked
04:30projected points this week
04:31with Arsenal at home to West Ham,
04:33but I wouldn't do it for free.
04:34I don't think there's a big enough gap between them.
04:37I don't think Arsenal are gonna go and win that game
04:39four or five nil and really score a lot of goals
04:41to get you a big haul.
04:42And actually in terms of predicted points,
04:43there's not that much between them.
04:45So I would only sell them if you're selling them
04:47A, for free and B, to a manager with a table bonus.
04:50Now there are a few managers
04:51that you could potentially look at.
04:52The ones highlighted with sort of the orange bar
04:54on this table are the ones with a table bonus.
04:57Oliver Glasner, Crystal Palace,
04:59Ruud van Nistelrooy, Leicester
05:00and McKenna of Ipswich are the top three ranks.
05:02You also have Wolves going away to Bournemouth as well.
05:06I don't like the Wolves one.
05:07You're probably looking at Leicester.
05:08You're probably looking at Ipswich
05:10and you're probably looking at Crystal Palace.
05:12Crystal Palace is my favourite.
05:14I then have Ipswich second
05:15and I actually have Leicester third
05:17just because I don't think they get anything
05:18against Brentford.
05:19Would I do this for free?
05:20Yes, if you have maybe two or more transfers
05:23and you're okay set up for game week 29
05:25or maybe you're free hitting in game week 29
05:26or if you're chasing rank.
05:28If you're in a position where you have one free transfer,
05:30your team is a mess for game week 29
05:32and you're not free hitting,
05:34I don't think I would be using a transfer
05:36on the assistant manager.
05:37So a few things, I wouldn't sell them for a hit.
05:40I wouldn't sell them to a manager
05:41unless it has a table bonus.
05:42Glasner would be my recommendation,
05:44Crystal Palace away at Bournemouth
05:46but I would only do it if you're in a luxury position.
05:49In terms of captaincy with Liverpool
05:51going away to Manchester City this week,
05:53there are a few sort of debates.
05:54There are a few other players
05:55that start to come into consideration
05:57but with Manchester City's defending
05:59and the way Liverpool and Mo Salah
06:00are attacking at the moment,
06:01Mo Salah does remain my number one pick.
06:04We've got Brian Mbama away at Leicester.
06:06Although he's been disappointing,
06:07he's actually my number two pick
06:08over going with Alexander Izzac.
06:10Kluivert in at number four
06:12and then basically anyone else.
06:13I've got Palmer in here
06:14but with the way Chelsea are performing,
06:15it could be someone like an Ollie Watkins as well.
06:17In terms of captaincy poll that I put out on Twitter,
06:1965% are going with Mo Salah.
06:21That does mean that one in three of you
06:23are considering going with a differential captain.
06:25Now that is very split.
06:27Brian Mbama, Izzac and Bournemouth midfielders
06:29have about 10% each.
06:31There is a big split between all of those
06:32and then a few other sort of players like Palmer,
06:35potentially like a few others
06:36like an Erling Haaland or a Marmouche
06:38getting a few differential punts in terms of captaincy.
06:41Salah will be my captain.
06:42He is predicted to score the most points this week.
06:45Liverpool are predicted to score almost two goals
06:48but actually interestingly,
06:48they're not predicted to score the most goals this week.
06:51Newcastle and Bournemouth as examples here
06:53and actually Brentford are equal with Liverpool
06:55but the other two predicted to score more goals.
06:57So there is an opportunity to go against Mo Salah
06:59if you're really chasing.
07:00Predicted points between these are actually really close.
07:03Mo Salah doesn't get too much away at Manchester City
07:06but with the way Liverpool are attacking,
07:08they've also dropped points recently
07:09and Manchester City defending is pretty horrible as well.
07:12Salah is my recommendation and he will be my captain.
07:15Now we're recording before all of the Friday press conferences
07:18so there was not loads of injury updates to give you.
07:21So there will be big updates.
07:22I think 16 of the 20 Premier League teams
07:25have a press conference on Friday.
07:27So we'll discuss all of that
07:28in our deadline stream on Friday evening.
07:30Of course, remember,
07:31it is a Friday evening deadline once again.
07:34Just a few of the big things to come out
07:35of what we know so far.
07:36Liverpool did have their press conference.
07:38Gatpo still remains a doubt.
07:40Arnie Slott said he's hopeful
07:41but it is touch and go.
07:42It is really close whether he's gonna be available.
07:44So if you own him,
07:45I probably wouldn't be relying on a bench
07:47unless you've got someone really,
07:49you know, a good player on your bench.
07:50Maybe you just bench Gatpo anyway
07:52but generally I would probably be looking to sell.
07:54Conor Bradley looks like he is gonna be out
07:56for at least game week 26 and game week 27.
07:58It might even last into game week 28 as well
08:01and that does boost Trent's minutes.
08:03Now Trent has been starting games and getting 60, 65 minutes
08:06and that's probably likely to continue.
08:08It might be pushed up to 70, 75
08:10with Kwanzaa coming on at right back
08:11but it makes Trent even more nailed than he even is
08:14because of even with the amount of games
08:15that they're playing at the moment.
08:16And the final one is Ahmad.
08:17We kind of have known this for about a week now
08:20but we haven't had too many videos since then.
08:21Ahmad is likely out for the season.
08:23He's gonna be out for several months regardless.
08:25He's in my team.
08:26I will be looking to sell him.
08:27I just don't know who the best replacement for me yet is.
08:30In terms of looking at some of those best players to buy,
08:33we're gonna start off in goal.
08:34Of course it does depend though
08:36on what your chip strategy is for game week 29.
08:38If you are free hitting in game week 29,
08:40Liverpool and Crystal Palace
08:42will remain the top players for you to buy
08:43because of course Crystal Palace double again
08:45in game week 32 soon after the blank in game week 29.
08:48But if you are not free hitting in game week 29,
08:51then you need to make sure
08:52you're getting 11 players out that week
08:54because Aston Villa, Liverpool, Crystal Palace
08:56and Newcastle who all have had sort of good fixtures recently
08:59all have quite reasonable investment in
09:01have blanks in game week 29.
09:03So in terms of goalkeepers,
09:04Kepa remains number one, Pickford remains number two.
09:07They look great recently.
09:08Ryer three, Henderson four.
09:10So if you're free hitting in 29 and you need a goalkeeper,
09:12Henderson is the one I'd buy
09:14because of the doubling game week 32.
09:16And then we're going with Verbroeken in at number five,
09:17but generally the top four are the ones
09:19that I would consider going with.
09:21Inter defenders, Gabriel remains number one.
09:23They have West Ham at home this week.
09:24Also with the lack of sort of goal threat
09:26they have in the team at the moment,
09:27they will be a little bit more focused
09:29on defensive solidity.
09:31Kerkes and Howson are in at two or three.
09:33And then we've got Munoz in at number four.
09:34Again, if you're free hitting in 29,
09:36Munoz should be a real priority, of course,
09:38alongside Trent Alexander-Arnold
09:40because of the fixtures they've got
09:41before the blank and after the blank as well.
09:44And a potential differential part is Ait Nori.
09:46Now I put this in my transfer targets video the other day,
09:48and a lot of you said you wouldn't go back to Ait Nori,
09:50and I completely get it.
09:51You can buy someone like a Mikalenko as well in here
09:54if you don't own him already.
09:55But Wolves do look much more improved
09:57under their new manager.
09:58We've seen that over the past couple of games as well.
10:00And Ait Nori does have some decent attacking threat.
10:03Inter midfielders to buy, of course,
10:04excludes the highly owned ones in Salah and Parma already.
10:08The Bournemouth midfielders remain my top three.
10:10We've got Kluivert, then Dango, and then Semenya.
10:13The little caveat is if you're gonna wildcard
10:15probably 34 or 35 onward,
10:18then I'd go Semenya over going with Dango or Ottara
10:20because of the return of Evan Nielsen,
10:22potentially impacting Dango's minutes up front.
10:25Then it is Matoma, then it is Ryan and Bermo,
10:28and then it is Wanyeri.
10:29Wanyeri is lower than the others if you have the money,
10:32but he is a really, really good cheap enabler
10:35The only issue is you have missed the Leicester fixture.
10:37Now, the other big question being asked is
10:39would I double up on Bournemouth mids or buy one of them
10:41and buy someone like a Matoma or buy a Wanyeri?
10:44I double up on Bournemouth mids
10:45before I buy any of the others.
10:46And that is probably my plan at the moment
10:49in terms of my Ahmad replacement.
10:51Into the forward line, we have Kunja.
10:52He is the number one.
10:53The fixtures for Wolves over the next few weeks
10:55start to get really good.
10:56Bournemouth away this week isn't perfect,
10:58but the upcoming fixtures probably make way for that.
11:00And they play Southampton in the blank as well.
11:02Mateta is second only if you are going to free hit
11:05game week 29.
11:05He should be in your team, definitely.
11:07100% owned if you're free hitting in 29.
11:09If you're not, then you look elsewhere in the list.
11:11I like Marmouche.
11:12With Harland potentially having a knock,
11:14his minutes go up.
11:15He looks really good as well,
11:16and he's a very cheap and affordable price.
11:18Criswood in the number four.
11:19And then the cheap option,
11:20if you need him for the blank in 29,
11:22is going to be Beto at Everton.
11:24Benching rankings are up next.
11:26We're going to start off in gold.
11:27David Rye is first at home to West Ham.
11:29Then it is Jordan Pickford.
11:31Berugan with the fixture going up against Southampton.
11:34Then it is Kepa.
11:35Then it is Flecken.
11:36Then it's Henderson.
11:36Then it is Sells.
11:37De Bravka, Martinez, and Alisson
11:39going away to Manchester City.
11:41I probably would just bench.
11:43Into the attackers,
11:43Brian and Bermo against Leicester is a definite start,
11:46as is Kluivert, as is Palmer for me.
11:48I would go Palmer over the likes of Criswood,
11:50which was a big talking point
11:51and a question that was asked a lot going into this video.
11:54We've got Visa high up,
11:55and we're actually going with him
11:56because of that Leicester fixture
11:57over someone like Mateta.
11:58But generally, if you've got these forwards,
12:00you're probably starting them.
12:01You've probably got someone weaker,
12:02even like an Ahmad,
12:03that you can easily bench this week.
12:05Watkins is next.
12:06Then it is Mateusz Kunia.
12:07Then it is the other Bournemouth midfielders
12:09who are not on penalties in Dango Atara and Semenya.
12:12I would still play both of those, though,
12:14over Criswood, who's over Marmouche,
12:15and who's over Morgan Rodgers.
12:17You all know that Cody Gatpo is way down in the list.
12:20I'm not confident enough that he starts.
12:22He's returned away from home,
12:24also not being good enough.
12:25He's also below Jalpedra in the list.
12:26I'm not guaranteeing that Gatpo starts,
12:28so I probably wouldn't be taking the risk on him.
12:31Gabriel is the top for defenders.
12:33Then it is Kyrgios.
12:34I would be starting Trent
12:35over most of the other cheaper ones,
12:37like a Robinson or a Lewis-Hall.
12:38You've got Gordon in there.
12:39If you have him, you can play him,
12:41but he is playing up against a Forest team
12:43who are pretty difficult to break down.
12:44Then it is Munoz.
12:45I'd play him over Robinson.
12:46I'd play him over Hausson.
12:48Just because Kyrgios has more attacking threat,
12:50he's higher up the list.
12:51Mikalenko, Lewis-Hall, Oloaina.
12:53And then Jalpedra.
12:54I don't expect Jalpedra to start against Southampton.
12:56I think it will be Minte, Matoma, Ruta, and Welbeck.
13:00And then Jalpedra off the bench.
13:01So I would be benching Jalpedra if you can,
13:03and I would be benching Gatpo as well if you can.
13:07Then just looking very quickly
13:08at RobTFPL's predictions for the game week.
13:12You can see that Arsenal are actually,
13:13that is the big banker of a game week.
13:15So if you are looking to buy a defender or a midfielder,
13:17someone like a Wanieri, someone like a Gabriel
13:20that we've already spoken about,
13:21or David Wyatt could be one to look at.
13:23You could also look at someone like a Trossard.
13:24I wouldn't be going with a Moreno though
13:27as a six million midfielder is probably not where I'd go.
13:30Liverpool, their projected goals are actually quite low
13:32in comparison to some of the other teams,
13:34which is why there is a little bit of a debate
13:36for captaincy moving off Mo Salah,
13:38but I would recommend still going with Mo Salah.
13:40And only one team, and that is Arsenal,
13:41hits that 40% threshold for clean sheets.
13:44So in terms of defenders,
13:45I'd be picking the ones with most attacking threat
13:48because it looks like clean sheets
13:49are going to be difficult to predict this week.
13:52And then finally, we're going to wrap up
13:53by looking at my team.
13:54And there was no team selection video this week
13:56because there's not really much to talk about.
13:57And we were waiting until Aston Villa, Liverpool
14:00finished on Wednesday evening as well.
14:01In terms of my team, in game week 25,
14:04I did get 99 points, so close to the 100 club,
14:07but actually Salah's bonus point he lost at the end
14:10was good for my rank, but bad for my overall score,
14:12not hitting 100.
14:13But just three points above my safety score,
14:15it was a green arrow.
14:16Very, very lucky, basically,
14:18because Gakpo, who could have played both games,
14:20ended up playing neither.
14:22And Ollie Watkins, who could have only played one game,
14:25ended up playing both, playing 90 minutes in both
14:26and scoring twice.
14:27And that was enough to change me
14:29from a big, big red arrow
14:30because of the amount of assistant managers being played
14:33to actually a small green arrow.
14:35So that was, you know, a massive stroke of luck.
14:37I cannot argue enough that that is the case.
14:39Again, the assistant managers hit me hard
14:41over the past couple of weeks,
14:42but I have kind of got away with it,
14:44again, with Watkins this week
14:45and with the triple campancy last week.
14:47Moving me up from just inside the top 15K
14:49to just inside the top 13K,
14:51so a very small green arrow,
14:53but with no chip active, I will absolutely take that.
14:56In terms of my team going into game week 26,
14:59I've said I want to sell Ahmad.
15:01The next price drop doesn't actually impact my team.
15:03The replacement for Ahmad is almost certain
15:06not to get into my starting lineup.
15:07Again, looking at the benching ranking,
15:09who would I be buying that I'd probably start this week?
15:11Maybe I'd buy a Bournemouth midfielder
15:13and bench someone like a Chris Wood,
15:14but I don't think that that's really a sensible thing
15:16to use a transfer on this week.
15:18So it is gonna be a 3-4-3.
15:20It is Mo Salah captain.
15:21He is in Burmo with the vice captain.
15:24I plan on just rolling my transfer,
15:25keeping Ahmad on the bench.
15:27Mikalenko, I'm just gonna bench.
15:29I could play him over Munoz,
15:30but given I've got Pickford,
15:31things feel pretty set for me.
15:33I'm gonna have to sell Ahmad at some point,
15:35but I don't feel I need to rush the decision.
15:37A few of you have also asked
15:38about chip strategy for my team as well,
15:40given I haven't played the assistant manager yet.
15:43There will be a chip strategy video out
15:45after game week 27, going into game week 28,
15:47once we've had the next round of the FA Cup
15:50in that weekend as well.
15:51So we'll discuss it in a lot more detail then.
15:54My plan is to play through 29,
15:55not use my free hit assistant manager in 31 to 33,
15:59free hit 34, wildcard 35,
16:02and bench boost in a single at the end of the season.
16:04That is my current plan,
16:05but we'll discuss it more after game week 27.
16:09And that is all for the final
16:10team selection decisions video.
16:12Of course, there will be a deadline stream.
