Navigating the disruption + best differential options for GW18

The FPL General is here to provide guidance on how best to navigate the increasingly disrupted and unpredictable FPL schedule Plenty of captaincy & transfer advice, the usual watchlist update, plus these questions answered: Should we fill our free-hit squads with differentials? Does it make sense to play free-hit if there are only 5 games being played? Do you enjoy how chaotic this FPL season has become or long for a return to normality? Is it best to save your chips for later in the season when the covid postponements have calmed down? If I use two free transfers now and then free-hit a day later will my free transfers remain or be cancelled? Lacazette or Martial for free-hit squads? Who are the top differentials for GW 18? Is it worth taking a points hit to get 9 players for GW18 enabling us to keep our free-hit chip for later in the season? With all the postponements is the wildcard becoming more of an option for those of us who used our first wildcard early? Are triple-ups too risky this season with all the potential postponements? Double gameweek19 - to bench boost or not? Is KDB a trap? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
