Yipchaa!
Yeah, few obvious targets, and in the same video I nabbed that graphic from, Andy (Let's Talk FPL) pointed out that the following fixtures for those teams aren't spectacular, so would you want many of the players in there beyond GW22?
Suggests a Free Hit might be the best option, but again, will there actually be better GWs later in the season?
Either way, squads probably going to be morphing and changing a lot between now and the deadline, both in FPL and the real world

The doubles that week could also get messed up by any FA cup cancellations.
Anyway there is no way I am using a free hit on this gameweek (and I already used one free hit this season), or any other chips. The way things look now I will only spend 4 points on transfers, and will end up with 6 double gameweek players.

Aye, I could also get to 6 with my two banked transfers. Might take a -4, but again, would have to balance it with the value of the fixtures that come after.

Yeah its cancelled.
Everton-Leicester on Tuesday postponed
Everton's Premier League home match against Leicester City on Tuesday is postponed because the Foxes do not have enough players to fulfil the fixture.

So, impact on FPL may not be as dramatic, though of course it may still impact his health/fitness.

It's hard to keep track of all the cancelled/re-arranged/cancelled again matches and players with covid. It's like playing covid roulette on top of Pep roulette.
There seems to be an international break on the last weekend of Jan with no England games. I've read that prem games can be re-arranged for that weekend (which would make them double play games) but teams be without whichever players do have international games that weekend. Which adds another layer of complication.

Yeah, particularly with the DGW and him arguably being currently up there with the most reliable attacking options, I imagine that's ballsed up quite a few plans.
There are different routes out of it, but gonna be some head scratching all the way up to hair pulling ahead of the next deadline.
Yet, ironically, Pep's roulette crew have been amongst the least affected by Covid

Only down to gameweek timing though - there were plenty absent from their recent cup game for covid reasons. And plenty of Foden owners who felt the impact of covid this gameweek.Yet, ironically, Pep's roulette crew have been amongst the least affected by Covid
That tue, not to mention the impact of his misdeads the previous week or two.

At least I squeezed 11 points out of him in between his time on the naughty step and his covid absence. He can sit on my bench next gameweek unless my plans are forced to change again, nice fixtures for him soon.

I guess Madisson will be my transfer in this week as he's near the top of the form league and Leicester have 2 games. Wait until Friday though to see if their games are on or if anything else falls to the pandemic.
Lord Camomile
Yipchaa!
Aye, definitely on my list of potentials.
As you say, though, leaving it all as last minute as poss.
Lord Camomile
Yipchaa!
So much for Maddison being a smart play
Everton look to have a really favourable run of fixtures, which is why it's so irritating they haven't had really had a favourable run of form/results up to this point
Lord Camomile
Yipchaa!
Ach, been there, always a fucker when you're forced to make transfers earlier than you'd like.
Lord Camomile
Yipchaa!
Bloody hell...
I was hopeful I could just about squeeze through the GW without using a Free Hit chip, but it's getting trickier.
That said, was getting rid of Son anyway, and losing one of my Arsenal players in order to field a full XI may not mess with my longer term plans* too much
Plus, Spurs and Leicester still potentially playing at least one match this GW, so not a total washout there, either.
*"longer term plans", lol

The North London derby is only maybe off. I'm going to make Kane captain and pray to the god of covid roulette for mercy.

if your captain doesn't play at all, then your vice captain scores double, doesn't he?
can't remember if i've had my captain not play. score bugger all, yes...
Lord Camomile
Yipchaa!
Me and my FPL plans.

Exasperated, not angry.
I am deeply torn too. Watford have two decent looking games, so Dennis is plausible, but Mount has two games too, but one is against citeh....
