🧠 BGW32: the Free Hit cheat-sheet 💫

Summary for the lazy

⏰ Gameweek 32's deadline is FRIDAY 21 April 18:30

🥊 It’s Free Hit weekend for many!

⛔ It’s also a blank. Brighton, Man United, Chelsea and Man City miss out.

🤕 Rashford and Shaw have travelled to Spain and it’s not for a piss up

👑 Return of the King?

And stick around to …

Alright? James here. I’m away at the moment. The Professor - who, just like your Mum’s best china, is usually reserved exclusively for Premium subscribers - will take the reigns for the next few issues.

You’re in very safe hands. The Prof has literally never finished outside of the top 100k in 7 seasons of playing: a quite ridiculous record that he’s comfortably on course to maintain.

Yes he’ll be running through the need-to-know stuff ahead of Blank Gameweek 32, but if you’re lucky, he’ll also sprinkle in some actual FPL advice.

A rarity in these parts.

Over to you, Prof.

Unashamedly, we are about to hit my favourite weekend of the FPL calendar. It is the week I get to pick players nobody in their right mind would ever spend a transfer on.

It’s blank fixtures Free Hit time, reader.

In what other week can you justify Timothy Castagne. In what world would you ever see FPL Twitter personalities plugging Joachim Andersen. And in what realm would I be allowed to make a case for a 500 year old Jordan Ayew?

Just like that time at school when all the good football players were away on a trip and they had to select from the dregs, it’s my time to shine.

Blankety Blank

There are four teams blanking this week, which, for those of you not immersed in FPL terminology, means four teams won’t play. They are:

Brighton
Chelsea
Man City
Man United

Here’s the latest from Ben Crellin, in case you’re more of a visual learner.

Free Hitting

After including players like Ayew in my rally cry above, it’s probably best if I lean on The Professor for some Free Hit template advice.

The best captain for Gameweek 32

Usually here we would post some hilarious picture of Erling Haaland. And given that we are quickly running out of said pictures, we are delighted he isn’t the go to option this gameweek.

So hop in the Deloreon as we’re going back in time to the days when Big Mo was the go to.

The Return of the King.

Just like the good old days, please.

In Vengaboys voice: Woah, they’re going to Sevilla

Worst title joke ever? You’ve seen nothing yet.

Your two favourite injured players in your FPL squad are (seemingly) back.

Oh wait, that’s me. Here’s what I’m doing this week:

Differential Corner

As promised, we’re going to start including three differentials in every email between now and Gameweek 38.
