For me the biggest issue is that it blocks you from using other chips in that period.
By using it smart, it can actually bring big points - especially if you go for an outsider.
Managers from smaller teams will be able to rake in more points than the obvious managers from big clubs when they face a club ranked at least five places higher, to encourage us to choose managers outside Pep, Slot, Arteta, and Maresca.

I like that you can change your choice of manager even after choosing to use the chip. The manager you have in the first week can be changed; it is not locked in for the entire period the chip will be active.

I already have an idea of an option in my head.

The mystery chip is complete garbage, and it is much worse that one must create a budget and make room in the team to accommodate a manager. I can't have Enzo Mascara with 3 Chelsea assets. How does it make sense ?

Fitting it into the budget will be a pain in the ass though.

I really like it, when we discussed what additions we wanted to see, I said I'd like to have managers added into the game.
Could be a lot of points if played correctly, let's see who'll make the most of it.

Whoops, I just used up my 1.3m balance. Now I will have to reshuffle after December to fit in this chip. I like it too, it's definitely a start to having managers, and at this moment, I could slot in any manager I want since I don't have the max 3 per team in my squad (another departure from my old style of max Liverpool assets).

More info: https://www.premierleague.com/news/4192707

BTW any of you actually follow the advice from The Scout? The email that comes into your inbox. I've been picking 1 player or 2 from the Scout picks, every time I'm forced into a transfer. Their captain advice is off though (every time they say Salah is not it, he is haha).

I won't be surprise if someone from Man United is in-charge of that Scout by FPL, given how well the club has done in this past year in terms of scouting, you know it's just about right...

I really don't ever follow anything they say, and sometimes when our thoughts seem to be aligned, I really do tend to go another route.

The only chip I've actually thought about this so far this season is the triple captain chip, and that was because of the Liverpool game being postponed, aside that, I think all my chip will come towards the final stretch, If I don't find a reasonable window to slot them into, the assistant manager chip however does feel like the best window would be the week right after my second wildcard.


We get to pick just one manager in all of these 3weeks or we can switch managers through the week.
Any ideas or some better understanding what that line might mean?

You can switch the assistant manager after the first pick which is free, but at the cost of a free transfer or -4 points just like players.


Just too bad that the chip, like every other one still can't be used together, meaning, for this one as well, when activated one cannot use another chip for the next 3 game weeks.

I guess one just have to live with it right, just like with maximum of 3 players per team, I'm sure a lot of us really do want to have more most times, but that's the beauty of the game at the end of day, a little bit of tinkering, a little bit of complication.

Fellas, mystery chip is finally announced:

Just read the notice and it’s said to be playable in GW24, that’ll be sometime in January With details to how the points would be allocated on performance of the team.
It says, it would be a 3week straight pick so, what I don’t get is?

Just realized I missed to proclaim GW14 winner, sorry about that.

Gw 14 winner is ajiz138, send me your Rollbit username asap and make sure to open the sportsbook at least once.
To be honest, I was waiting for this announcement because GW14 had the most points, but no matter, I'm glad you announced it again. Grin

PM will be sent soon.

Not a good week for me, and it really all came down to my captain choice, perhaps if that Saka goal for Arsenal had stood it could have been somewhat different,
The point difference is not so much; I don't think anyone has a solid grip on their position just yet; things can quickly change in one GW. I am sure some people can say worse about this GW for them.

...while it wasn't really a good round, keeping Mbeumo saved me a bit, it could have gone from bad to worse real quick.

I guess I'll just keep him for next round as well, maybe he'd get something going against Chelsea too  Wink
I had him but sold him off. I still don't regret it because I don't think he can maintain scoring in each game with Wissa around.

Winner of GW 15 is Ulven with unreal 81 points in a week when Salah didn't play so it was sort of expected it would be one of the teams without Salah in it. Well played, send me your Rollbit username and make sure to open the sportsbook at least once.

Its hard to get the right players in. Plus when you dont have luck with Saka things end badly in that round and i understand you because this happened to me in the few weeks before. All bad round but this round finally got 70+ points but its too late for me to catch up to the top. Just brought in Cunha and Kelleher so hoping for some points from them. Now everyone has Salah and Palmer and is hard to catch up need to think out of the box to get some extra points.

You declined the one I proposed at the start of the season; I waited for you to get above since I know you want to go ahead before accepting the side bet; the gap isn't more than 10, so it was a good trap; I'll leave a neutral tag for reference.
Those were my words, funny you would use that against me. Of course I've had to tease you a couple of times into making this bet and you did eventually. I just needed togetclose enough but fortunately,  I got above although, I'll even be okay with us having to equate the plain if that would make you feel good about the bet. Let's say, we note the point difference in this week and see if I fall behind or above at the end of the season.

I just know I'm going to try my most to catch up one of those price position, that's the goal for now but, I think I know what to do with that 2mbtc if I do win. If I don't, what the hell, best man wins right.

I missed the deadline to set up my team...
Palmer captaincy saved your ass; it could have been worse if you had made any changes, as I know you would have chosen Saka captaincy.
Luck, I guess Cheesy  It would have been Saka for sure; I expected an easier game for us than Chelsea against Tottenham.

I have three players not playing: Gabriel, Salah, and McNeil, so I am waiting for the auto-subs to kick in for me. Luckily for me also, Solanke scored this GW.

Is anyone else going into this game with potentially nine men?

Here. And I couldn't switch reserves after I heard the news, so Wood, even with 8 points, was last on my bench... Harwood and Mazraoui will slot in for Salah and Gabriel for a grand total of 3 points. Very, very painful. Of course, having captained Palmer for a poor return, my vice was Saka, so I also lost out there.

A bit of a pain this time management thing, I have to look up the precise moment picks are locked.

I guess I still didn't do too badly thanks to Mbeumo mostly.

Im getting tired of some managers/coach changing at the very last time the starters and making some players who usually play dont be into the starters.

What a safe of the round for someones having Palmer as a captain. Sadly i had Haaland as vice captain, and poor guys the ones with Watkins as captain.
Saliba and Vardi saved me. Grin

I get a little annoyed when users use the feedback wall as each other's notebook.

I found a good solution / inactive account named "Note"  Smiley

Hope "Note" doesn't comeback alive and see wall of neutral tags on his wall and sue all of us to theymos. Grin. I just followed your footprints.

Edit: Note is banned.
