For a free hit in GW10, the creator would prioritize triple Arsenal defence over selecting Noni Madueke or Martin Ødegaard.
The creator's proposed free-hit structure uses Raya, Calafiori and Gabriel, replacing a midfielder slot with defensive coverage.

If I were free hitting I'd go all in on triple Arsenal defence rather than Madueke or Odegaard, so Raya, Calafiori, Gabriel.

David Raya and Gabriel are Arsenal's two safest defensive picks over the longer term, while Calafiori and Konsa have future minutes concerns.
The creator says Calafiori will not start every match and expects Konsa to become a problem after Saliba returns, leaving Raya and Gabriel as the safe bets.
FPL Focal · FPL PLAYERS TO BUY | GW10 ✅ · Nov 2, 2026
Calafiori's been class but won't start every single game, Konsa will become a problem at some point after the break too on Saliba's return so Raya and Gabriel are the two safe bets.

Riccardo Calafiori carries rotation risk for GW10 because his start may depend on his Champions League minutes.
The creator says Calafiori is risky and outlines several possible defensive replacements if he plays in Europe.
FPL Focal · FPL PLAYERS TO BUY | GW10 ✅ · Nov 2, 2026
Calafiori is slightly risky as well dependent on Champions League minutes midweek... if he plays Calafiori in the Champions League there's an outside chance he goes Hincapie or Lewis-Skelly, or Mosquera RCB, or White RB.

Arsenal defenders are credible Gameweek 10 captaincy options against Hull, with Calafiori and Gabriel specifically discussed as possible best captains.

Gabriel is a transfer target, but the creator would only prioritize buying him if Calafiori's European involvement creates doubts about his Gameweek 10 start.
The creator sees Gabriel as a strong long-term option but wants to assess Calafiori's Champions League minutes and expected start against Hull before committing funds.

If Cal Fury does start in the Champions League midweek, that will create a bit of a debate in my mind... And that might be the point where I look to free up some money to do Cal Fury up to Gabrielle.

The creator will decide between Riccardo Calafiori and De Cordova after the press conference, with Calafiori selected only if Arteta confirms he is ready to play.

Gabriel Magalhães is a worthwhile longer-term defensive buy because he offers a more secure Arsenal starting spot than the rotation-risk alternatives.
The creator argues that Gabriel justifies his price in the current premium landscape and can form a secure Arsenal defensive pairing with Raya while Calafiori's minutes may become less reliable.

I think Gabrielle kind of justifies himself and I also think he gives you that second secured spot longer term into the Arsenal defense... Calafiori could start to become a problem as the Champions League ramps up.

The creator would bench Riccardo Calafiori in Gameweek 9 because his availability is uncertain and the Liverpool away fixture is difficult.

Calafiori should be benched for Gameweek 9 because Arsenal are expected to concede to Liverpool and a substitute cameo is a concern.
The creator expects Liverpool to score, plans to bench an Arsenal defender, and prefers the safer route of benching Calafiori rather than risking a one-point appearance.

Calafiori remains a projected Gameweek 9 starter, but his yellow flag and Arsenal's defensive rotation options make his minutes uncertain.
The creator retains Calafiori in the projected XI while highlighting the small injury, his substitute appearance, and Arsenal's alternative defenders.
FPL Dylan · FPL Gameweek 9: TEAM SELECTION | Fantasy Premier League Tips 2026/27 · Oct 29, 2026

Gabriel is the best long-term Arsenal defender, making a future Calafiori-to-Gabriel move attractive if the budget can be created.
The creator explicitly ranks Gabriel first among Arsenal defenders and cites Calafiori's injury and rotation risk, while noting the move is not currently affordable.
FPL Dylan · FPL Gameweek 9: TEAM SELECTION | Fantasy Premier League Tips 2026/27 · Oct 29, 2026
In the long run, Gabriel is the best Arsenal defender, and Calafiori is quite injury prone, and we could see him rotated in the future.

A minus-four hit becomes a realistic option if João Pedro, Bobby Thomas and Calafiori all appear unlikely to play, particularly to replace João Pedro alongside either Gonzalo García or Slater.
The creator wants to avoid a weak eleven and may accept the hit if multiple flagged players are unavailable, though he hopes one defender becomes available and makes it unnecessary.

Calafiori is the most likely of the three flagged players to play in Gameweek 9, but his availability remains uncertain until the deadline.
The creator gives Calafiori the highest estimated chance of playing despite the lack of reliable injury updates and his yellow flag.

Silva is the creator's preferred defensive replacement if Calafiori becomes an issue.
The creator identifies Silva from Bournemouth as the likely move after already owning a Spurs defender and not having enough money for Gabriel without additional transfers.

Calafiori should be held unless he is ruled out for both Gameweek 9 and Gameweek 10.
The creator values Calafiori's upside and prefers to wait for clearer injury information, although he may sell next week if Calafiori returns for Champions League action but not the Hull fixture.
Let's Talk FPL · 1 transfer 🔒 Time for another? 🤔 My FPL Team for GW9 🔥 · Oct 29, 2026
The only transfer I think I'd be willing to make this week is Calaflori out, but only if he's definitely going to miss Gameweek 10... So, unless he gets ruled out for 2 weeks, so Gameweek 9, Gameweek 10, I think I will probably just keep hold of him.
