Question
Check my frozen team. When was the snapshot created, which season and target gameweek does it cover, which GW is my squad based on, and what deadline does it contain? Does that prove it includes every private transfer I made since GW8?
Answer
completed trace cc4c9642Snapshot facts (frozen, not live)
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Snapshot created | 2026-10-28 21:26:50 UTC |
| Season | 2026-27 |
| Target GW | 9 |
| Squad based on | GW8 |
| Deadline contained | 2026-10-31 11:00:00 UTC (GW9 deadline) |
| Bank | £1.1m (11 tenths) |
| Free transfers | 3 |
| Chips used | None — wildcard, free hit, bench boost and triple-up all still available until GW19 |
Squad is 14 players (Verbruggen, Dubravka; Gvardiol, Calafiori, van Ewijk, Mitchell, Davis; Ødegaard, Rogers, Groß, Slater, B.Fernandes; Haaland, Calvert-Lewin, João Pedro).
No — it does not prove that
Three separate reasons:
1. Timing. The snapshot was captured on 28 October, roughly two and a half days before the GW9 deadline it contains (31 October, 11:00 UTC). Any transfer you confirmed in that window sits on the live FPL side of the cut-off and is simply not in this capture. The snapshot cannot see past its own timestamp.
2. No transfer log. The payload records squad state — names, clubs, purchase prices, current prices, statuses — but no transfer timestamps, no "transferred in GWx" fields, no change history. There is no field in it that could evidence when a player arrived, so completeness cannot be verified from it. "Based on GW8" tells you the squad is a GW8-era arrangement; it does not certify the transfer list applied to it.
3. Corroborating signals are suggestive, not conclusive. Free transfers = 3 with no chips used is consistent with transfers having been made since the GW8 deadline (unused transfers roll over), and the current prices diverge from several purchase prices — e.g. Rogers £7.7m→£8.0m, Gvardiol £5.5m→£5.7m, Haaland £15.5m→£15.8m — which suggests a re-priced, post-GW8 squad. But that is circumstantial. It cannot confirm every transfer is captured, nor rule out one made after 28 October.
Also worth flagging: the snapshot ID carries a working-state ("dirty") marker rather than a clean-export tag, which is a further reason to treat it as a provisional capture rather than a verified record of your FPL state.
What would settle it
A direct read of your live FPL entry's transfer history (the list of each transfer with its confirmation timestamp) against the 2026-10-28 21:26:50 UTC cut-off. Anything confirmed earlier is in this snapshot; anything later is not. The available tools all read this same frozen snapshot, so I cannot perform that cross-check from here.
One practical note for the GW9 deadline itself: Calafiori is flagged doubtful with a hip injury and João Pedro is out with a thigh injury, so both are unavailable to change before the deadline — that's from the snapshot's own news fields, not a live injury update.
