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

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Snapshot created | 28 October 2026, 21:26:50 UTC (id 20261028_212650_step17-current_3a1d9408-dirty) |
| Season | 2026-27 |
| Target gameweek | GW9 |
| Squad based on | GW8 |
| Deadline contained | 31 October 2026, 11:00 UTC (the GW9 deadline) |
| Team name | [team name] |
Supporting snapshot state: bank £1.1m (11 tenths), 3 free transfers remaining, no chips used, and Wildcard/Free Hit/Bench Boost/Triple Captain all still available until GW19.
The snapshot was created roughly 2½ days before the GW9 deadline it contains, and it already carries injury flags (Calafiori doubtful — hip, 75% chance of playing; João Pedro injured — thigh, unknown return), so it was taken with some GW9 news incorporated.
Does that prove it captures every private transfer you made since GW8?
No. A frozen snapshot proves only what the API served at the moment of capture, and it carries no transfer ledger. Specifically:
- Anything after 28 Oct 2026, 21:26 UTC is definitely absent. If you made a transfer in the last few days, or have one lined up, it will not be in this data.
- Transfers between GW8 and the capture time are only implicitly included. They would show up as the resulting squad, prices and the £1.1m/3-free-transfers state — but there is no per-transfer record in the data, so you cannot verify which players or how many changes are reflected.
- The
based_on_gw: 8tag describes the fixture/result state the squad was priced against, not a transfer log. It does not certify that the squad is the product of a complete, error-free set of GW8→GW9 moves. - The available tools do not expose a transfer-history endpoint, so completeness cannot be confirmed from this data at all — only the current captured squad can be inspected.
One useful consistency check: the snapshot's transfer plan is built on the assumption that this captured squad is your real one. If your live FPL team has diverged since 28 October, every projected figure below would be stale.
Live snapshot-based advice (GW9, model: full)
For reference, on this frozen squad the tool returns make_transfers: true — gain 3.78 against a threshold of 2.0 over the GW9-12 plan horizon:
- GW9: buy Raya (1), Barry (249), Mbeumo (427); sell João Pedro (165), B.Fernandes (426), Dubravka (497). Captain Haaland, vice-captain Calvert-Lewin.
- GW10 (provisional): buy Gabriel (4), sell Calafiori (8). Captain Gabriel, vice Haaland.
- GW11 (provisional): buy Vuskovic (504), sell van Ewijk (175). Captain Haaland, vice Vuskovic.
- GW12 (provisional): buy Khalaili (588), sell Gvardiol (391). Captain Calvert-Lewin, vice Khalaili.
- Bench (GW9, in order): Verbruggen, Slater, Mitchell, Calafiori.
- Chip decision:
save— no valued chip is recommended now. Triple Captain is provisionally planned for GW16 (~+6.98), Bench Boost for GW15 (~+11.89), Free Hit for GW14 (~+7.69, and flagged as needing transfer-plan review since it changes then restores the squad). Wildcard is unassessed — the tool states it is not valued and needs manual review. Chip gains are extra expected points on top of the XI projection and must not be stacked in the same GW.
Note also that the snapshot's own assumptions state the schedule holds the squad unchanged in future GWs — rerun the recommendation after any confirmed transfer or team news, since a real GW9 change would invalidate the GW10-12 steps above.
