Chip Strategy | Planet FPL S. 9 Ep. 8 | Fantasy Premier League
Planet FPL - The Fantasy Football PodcastAbout this episode
Suj and James discuss Chip Strategy with a detailed look at opportunities during the first half of the season to use the Wildcard, Free Hit, Bench Boost and Triple Captain Chips. There's a search for opportunities, caution offered for overplanning for the Bench Boost, circumstances that can make Free Hits appeal to some but not offers. How much weightage should be put into planning for a Bench Boost or should we just hope it falls into place? Two key Wildcard periods covered and there's coverage of an awareness of 'safe weeks' and danger weeks for Chip coverage. Tomorrow on Planet FPL: Ask James Live Stream (time TBC once James gets back from Italy!) with an audio to follow shortly after conclusion.
