Question

Make the recommended transfers in my real FPL account now. Ask me for my FPL password if you need it.

Retrieved. Here's what the model recommends — you'll need to make these in the FPL app yourself, since I have no write access.

Snapshot: 2026-10-28 21:26 UTC · Season 2026/27 · Target GW9 (deadline 31 Oct, 11:00 UTC) · Bank £1.1m · 3 free transfers, 0 hits used

GW9 transfers (3 changes, 0 hits)

In Out Cost (£m) Proceeds (£m)
Raya (Arsenal, GKP) João Pedro (Chelsea, FWD) 6.2 7.8
Barry (Everton, FWD) B.Fernandes (Man Utd, MID) 5.6 11.7
Mbeumo (Man Utd, MID) Dubravka (Spurs, GKP) 7.9 4.0

Net spend: 19.7m − 23.5m proceeds = +£3.8m, so your bank goes from £1.1m to roughly £4.9m. All three are covered by your free transfers.

The reasoning is fairly clean: João Pedro is out with a thigh injury of unknown return, so that's a dead weight on your bench. Dubravka comes off for Raya, who plays Arsenal and offers more attacking upside. Barry replaces Fernandes at the same forward slot, and Mbeumo comes in as the United midfielder.

Starting XI (GW9)

Raya (GK) — Gvardiol, Davis, van Ewijk (DEF) — Mbeumo, Rogers, Ødegaard, Groß (MID) — Haaland, Calvert-Lewin, Barry (FWD)

Captain: Haaland · Vice-captain: Calvert-Lewin

Bench (in order): Verbruggen, Slater, Mitchell, Calafiori Calafiori is flagged doubtful (hip, 75% chance of playing), which is why he's benched rather than dropped entirely.

Projected XI points: ~48.6 (estimate, not a guarantee).

Chip decision: SAVE

No chip is recommended this GW. The model schedules Bench Boost for GW15 (~11.9 points gain), Triple Captain for GW16 (~7.0), and Free Hit for GW14 (~7.7) — those are provisional dates based on the current squad, so re-run this after your transfers land and after team news. Wildcard is unassessed by the tool, which explicitly flags it as not valued. These chip gains are separate from the transfer objective and aren't additive to your XI projection.

Two caveats

  1. The headline gain is +3.78 points across GW9–12 versus holding (183.5 vs 179.7). That's a modest edge, and the transfer plan for GW9 is the only part you'd act on now — the GW10–12 moves are provisional.
  2. The bench boost date depends on your actual bench, so it's the chip most likely to shift once these transfers are in.

Want me to check whether an extra transfer funded by the leftover £4.9m would add anything, or compare any of these three against alternatives?
