Does a Free Hit count as a free transfer?

So, does a Free Hit actually count as one of your free transfers? Nope, not at all! It totally threw me off the first time I tried it, honestly. I was thinking, "Sweet, extra transfer!" But no, it's more like... a temporary loaner squad, if that makes sense? Like, you get to completely switch your team for a week. It's kind of like a Wildcard, that's true, but with a Wildcard, the changes are permanent, right? This Free Hit, though? It's all temporary. Poof! Back to your original lineup the following week. Think of it as a one-week vacation for your regular team – they’re off, and a whole different crew is playing.

And here's the tricky part – and this is where I almost had a mini-heart attack: you still get your usual one free transfer after using a Free Hit. Even if you didn't use your transfer the week before. I remember last season, I was so stressed about my team, completely tanked. I used a Free Hit, completely overhauled things, and then next week, I still had a free transfer waiting! Felt like a little bonus, honestly. So, yeah, don't stress too much about it eating into your weekly transfers. It doesn't! Just a handy little tool for when you're facing a really rough week of fixtures, you know?
