THREE QUESTIONS

A decision before a rebuild.

This is an example of the questions the check answers. Load your squad for its calculated routes, source dates and limitations.

WHAT THE CHECK COMPARES

Keep the alternative in view.

A better draft alone does not establish that spending the wildcard is worthwhile.

Ordinary transfers

Rolling and repairing your squad provide the baseline. Transfer hits count against each route.

The same window

Compare each candidate wildcard week over one six-week horizon, shortened at season end.

Tonight’s affordability

When price forecasts are available, see which draft moves could cost more if you wait.

Your picks

Keep your must-haves, exclude players you don’t want, then recalculate the routes.

How it works

Your squad. Your alternatives. Your call.

01

Load your public squad

Enter your current-season Team ID or Points page link. No account is needed for the check.

02

Compare the routes

See ordinary-transfer and wildcard routes over the same window, with projected points after hits.

03

Review before acting

Inspect the proposed moves, source dates and limitations. Any changes to your real team must be made on FPL.

HOW TO READ YOUR RESULT

Make the wildcard earn its place.

The check starts with your existing squad and compares ways to manage it over the next six gameweeks. It can recommend saving the chip. Projected points are estimates, not guaranteed returns.

Compare now, later and ordinary transfers

Each route includes weekly line-ups, captaincy and transfer costs over the same period. Expand a route to see its moves and weekly points. A full rebuild is compared with what ordinary transfers could achieve, rather than only with leaving your current team untouched.

Separate the decision from tonight’s price risk

Choosing to wildcard and choosing to make transfers tonight are different decisions. When a price forecast is available, the check shows the draft moves affected and the cost of waiting. It does not promise future squad-value gains, and a price forecast can be wrong.

Read the limits before using a close result

The search is bounded, so a better route may exist. Other chips, squad value after the window and later price changes are not fully modelled. The spread shown is projection variance, not a calibrated probability that one route will win. Source warnings and missing-data blockers remain visible.

QUESTIONS

What your wildcard check can tell you.

Understand the comparison before committing your chip.

Will it always recommend a wildcard?+

No. It compares wildcard routes with ordinary transfers and can recommend saving the chip. The result depends on your squad, available transfers, fixtures and projections.

Does it change my real FPL team?+

No. It reads public squad data and shows a comparison. You make any transfers and activate any chip yourself on the official FPL site.

Does it account for other chips?+

The comparison does not fully model other chips. Check those plans separately and read the assumptions in the result before deciding.

Does it predict how much team value I will gain?+

No. When price forecasts are available, it estimates the immediate cost of waiting on draft moves. It does not promise future squad-value gains.

What if my squad or forecasts cannot be verified?+

The result displays source times and warnings. Missing or conflicting inputs can block recommendations; retry when the data is available. A blocked first load offers a clearly labelled sample briefing.
