Gameweek 26 Tips: Fantasy Premier League (FPL) | Which blankers to ditch and a new budget assist king in the Premier League?

Pundit tips

Don’t go tearing your team apart! After I told you to consider playing your triple captain chip last week (unless you played it on Sané as I did!!!) you might be feeling pretty good about yourself!

Now we do have a blank Gameweek coming up in GW27 where 4 teams won’t play due to the league cup final (Everton, Chelsea, Man City & Brighton) but this doesn’t mean you need to remove all players from those teams.

Your planning should be focused on having 11 players on the field. Personally, I’m looking to still keep 2 players from each of those teams and then bench them for GW27. If you only field 10 players in GW27 it’s not the end of the world so just make sure you have a plan!

I’m also appearing on the ‘What the FPL’ podcast (@WhatheFPL on Twitter) with Yaron and Gaz tonight so be sure to listen out! You can find the Podcast on iTunes and various other podcast sites!

You can find me on Twitter @FPL_Jim, where you can send me any questions, send me a direct message if that's your thing and I'll always get back to you.
