Mo, I love you to bits mate, but please stop taking your shirt off when you score. Not only does this remind me how badly out of shape I am, but it also deducts 2 points from my FPL team.
Best regards, Matt.
You, the fans, keep me going. You give me more strength than I think you’ll ever know.

If you could change one thing about FPL, what would you do?*
*I'd replace assists for pens with Penalty Created so that the 'assister' gained points even if the penalty was not converted.

If it goes:
2018/19: Aaron Wan-Bissaka
2019/20: John Lundstram
2020/21: Stuart Dallas
Then who is *that* player this season?
Obviously Tino Livramento was on course for it but, obviously (and sadly) injury has plagued his season.

The good thing about the GW14 deadline being so close is you can disguise your rage transfer as a regular transfer.

Taking a -4 to switch Saka for KDB in Gameweek 24 has cost me a total of 38 points.
That is an average of 12.6 points lost per Gameweek.

This is my wife's team.
She auto picked it in Gameweek 1, then decided she wasn't going to play this season (a decision I wish I'd emulated).
Look at the state of it!
It beat your team this week, didn't it?

The recent Watkins buzz is a perfect example of FPL Twitter's 'over-aggrandising' of an FPL asset.
What has happened in reality is that, since Jesus and Nkunku have got injured, Watkins has become the best of a not-so-great bunch in a certain positional price bracket.
Which is

In lieu of having any football to watch, I went exploring my home yesterday.

According to FPL Twitter Doherty is either Lundstram reborn or a complete trap.
Is it just me who thinks he is merely a half-decent, good value option who doubles in GW29 and doesn't blank in GW30?

Looking at my son's FPL team, going into GW6.
My son: "I need to get rid of Grob."
Me: "It's Gross, not Grob."
My son: (squinting at screen): "It's Grob!"
Me: *considering how best to explain the German 'eszett' character*
Me: "...yeah, you need to get rid of Grob."

OK, so after a reasonable start, I have fallen 3.9m places from 500k to 4.4m. I think we can all agree, that's pretty damn awful. In fact, it's my worst ever start to a season.
My choices are: I can either mope around, complain about how my season is over, and allow negativity

Whether or not humans should eat meat is a complex and nuanced debate.
Whether a man should get a pet cat and then kick and slap it around his house is not.
Don't attempt to conflate the two; you'll only end up weakening your own arguments.

Thought dump on Haaland injury. 💭
At first I thought this was a blessing in disguise, as I desperately need to open up some funds for upgrades around the squad.
My initial plan was to get at those funds by selling either Saka or Son - but I am not too keen on either option

Which of your own decisions this season really annoyed you?
For me:
🔹️Bringing in DCL for a hit when Everton doubled
🔹️Transferring in 2 x Villa players an hour before the Villa game was postponed
🔹️Bringing in Azpi over James in GW9

If you are ranked 500k now then there are 95 points between you and the Top 10k.
With 26 GWs left, you need to gain just 3.65 points (on the safety score) each week, between now and the end of the season, to end on a very respectable finish.
That is nothing.
Never give up!
I’d say if you’re outside the top 500k your season is over. Just enjoy it now, play recklessly.
The players you have to bring in to get back to the template won’t move your rank.
My team is 49% deemed “Very Differential”.
That’s the way it’ll be staying.

Fellow GW9 Wildcarders, I suspect there will be many price changes this evening, so don't mess about with hitting the Wildcard button.
Do it immediately after the deadline tonight and capture all the team value for tomorrow morning. 💵

It's been a privilege to be a constant in your life for almost ten years. We are all very thankful for the joy you brought us.
I will fondly remember your waggy tail and insatiable appetite, even at the very end.

If Grealish goes to City he is straight out my FPL team.
At £8m, playing 90 mins for Villa, I would have him as a consistent returner of points. Not many double-digit hauls, but a steady stream of returns.
At City he'll be a rotation risk and is not explosive enough to justify.

PLAYER PRICES WHICH HAVE CAUGHT MY EYE 👀
GOALKEEPERS:
Robert Sanchez (Brighton - £4.5m) ✅
GW1-6 Fixture Rating: Good 🙂 (bur/WAT/EVE/bre/LEI/cry)
With 10 CS in 27 apps, and great opening fixtures, I think Sanchez is a bargain. I personally opt for two GKs from the same...

My son scored a penalty today and when he ran off, did the 'sucking thumb' celebration, much to the amusement of the crowd.
To be clear, my son is 7 years' old and, as far as I am aware, has not recently fathered an infant.

For those who took hits this Gameweek, how's it going?
I did:
🔹Salah (2) -> KDB (5)
🔹Cancelo (1) -> Shaw (2)
🔹Darwin (0) -> Kane (2) [-8]
So: Net gain = -2
Need 2 points between three players to break even.
With how this season has gone, I don't take that for granted!

If I were OGS I'd be thinking, with Cavani back fit, and a relatively easy game against Villa, I would be tempted to give Ronaldo a rest so he's fresh for the must-win CL game against Villareal.

HAVE A FLEXIBLE GW1 SQUAD⚽️
The start of the season is the most volatile regarding starting XIs and player price changes.
It's essential that your squad be dynamic in the first few weeks. This🧵covers:
-Predicting player prices💰
-Covering price points💷
-Keeping £0.5m ITB🏦
