Question

Check the chip-value tool using the full model for GW9 only. Can it calculate the expected points gain from playing my Wildcard?

completed trace 30942a61

Result of the chip‑value query (snapshot 2026‑10‑28, target GW 9, “full” model)

GW	Your XI (baseline)	Triple Captain	Bench Boost	Free Hit
9	45.61 points	+5.88 pts	+5.24 pts	+7.90 pts

Available chips (as of the snapshot): wildcard, free‑hit, bench‑boost, triple‑captain.

The tool does not return a value for the wildcard. Its calculation assumes the current frozen squad is kept unchanged for every game‑week; a wildcard simply allows you to change the squad, but the model does not simulate any alternative line‑ups or transfers that could be made with it. Consequently the only “gain” it can report for a wildcard would be zero (the baseline XI is already the best it can project without additional transfer planning).

So, no – the chip‑value tool cannot calculate an expected points gain from playing your wildcard for GW 9. It only provides hypothetical gains for chips that alter the points‑scoring mechanics (triple‑captain, bench‑boost, free‑hit) while keeping the squad fixed. To evaluate a wildcard’s benefit you would need a different analysis (e.g., a transfer‑optimisation run) rather than the chip‑value endpoint.
