Episode notes
Spend At Least One Free Transfer
- Use at least one free transfer now because unused transfers stay capped at five next week and you won't gain extra capacity by waiting.
- Keep some transfers for emergencies or January tweaks if you don't need to spend them all immediately.
Five Transfers Act Like A Mini Wildcard
- Treat the five free transfers like a mini-wildcard that lets you change up to a third of your squad.
- Use multiple transfers if you need significant surgery, but consider holding some for injuries or AFCON absences.
Upgrade Bench For Bench Boosts
- Use transfers to upgrade your bench ahead of a Bench Boost if you plan for that chip.
- Remember transfers don't add money, so reshuffle funds carefully when improving bench quality.
