It's possible to send me DMs but I can't read them as I won't be doing the age verification.

GW11:

23 points
OR: 1M52 down to 2M33

Awful week. Gameweek rank so bad LiveFPL don't display it.
Blanks all round except for assist for Woltemade and a goal for Haaland, whose points counted against me.
2 missed penalties and Virgil's goal disallowed.
Cap Mateta fail but 4th best pts (2)

#FPL

GW11:

Rolled 2 FTs.

Virgil & Gakpo stay in first XI despite the tough fixture and doubts if G starts.
Captain Mateta.
There'll be 3 FTs available for GW12. Likely a CRY DEF coming in but there are many routes to that.
November 8, 2025 at 1:04 PM
#FPL

GW10:

89 pts

OR 2M37 up to 1M52

Decent green arrow. Triple ARS DEF/GK did well with new addition Timber. Mateta too, Woltemade not so much.
Caicedo got DC & bonus at the end. Ndiaye showing his value again. He can stay until AFCON.

MCI v LIV next GW - might not use a FT.
November 4, 2025 at 1:07 AM
#FPL

5 players down and all got returns for 43 points. Great start. Let's see if Gakpo & Virgil can follow it up. Caicedo getting the extra DEFCON in the last couple of minutes and gets the 2 BPS too.
November 1, 2025 at 7:36 PM
I thought denying a goalscoring opportunity was a red card offence. BBC reporter disagrees.
November 1, 2025 at 3:51 PM
#FPL

3 transfers made from 4 available.

OUT:
VdV, Joao Pedro & Gyok

IN:
Timber
Woltemade
Mateta

Stuck with plan A

All my ARS eggs in the DEF/GK basket
Only 1 CRY player for now
No MUN
Hanging onto 2 x LIV. Apart from GW11, fixtures good and if they improve, VVD & Gakpo will be part of that.
October 31, 2025 at 8:57 PM
#FPL

GW10 transfer dilemmas. 4 FTs available, 0.6 ITB

Definitely OUT:
JP (had him 4 games, 0 returns 0.07 xG total)
Gyok - (4 games, 0 returns, better value ARS available)

Def IN:
Mateta
Timber

Possible FWD in Wolte or Thiago ( T more ITB for elsewhere)

Prob DEF out VdV, want to keep Virgil.
October 31, 2025 at 4:20 PM
#FPL

GW9:

40 points
OR: 1M95 down to 2M36

Can't say I was unlucky with Van de Ven - he was last sub.

Blanks from the entire MID & FWD lines.
20 pts from Gabriel, Raya & Senesi, 20 pts from all the rest. 23 for VDV 😔

4 FTs for GW10 - 3 likely to be used. Wolte, Mateta, Timber/Munoz?
October 26, 2025 at 7:33 PM

Dominic Szoboszlai:
1 Goal, 1 Assist. 1.0 xG, 1.0 xA
October 25, 2025 at 9:32 PM
#FPL

GW9:

4 FTs available. Reijnders to Caicedo - a bit short on money for Enzo but Caicedo's fine.
Giving JP & Gyok another fixture before deciding who goes for Woltemade.
If Gabriel doesn't play, Esteve off the bench isn't bad.
October 24, 2025 at 4:36 PM
#FPL

GW8:

88 points with Bench Boost

OR: 3M54 up to 1M95

Big green arrow. Had been 6M after GW5. 15 pts from BB is fine.
The BUR guys did well with cap Haaland, Gabriel, Gakpo & Raya. Pedro & Gyokeres is a classic form v fixtures conundrum. Woltemade is on the radar.
October 20, 2025 at 11:54 PM
#FPL

GW8:

Bench Boost active.

Had considered moving Ndiaye out for Enzo but deicded to roll even if Enzo wasn't a doubt.
Decision to BB this GW was down to good fixture for 3 x BUR.
I'll be happy with 12-16 for Dubravka, Ndiaye, Senesi & VDV.
October 18, 2025 at 11:49 AM
#FPL

GW7:

73 points
OR 4M2 up to 3M5

Decent green arrow. Bench decisions worked out. At this rank, Haaland captain helped quite a bit. Gaps to better ranks largely unchanged.
3 FTs available for GW8 and probably bench boost.
October 6, 2025 at 12:40 AM
#FPL

GW7:

2 FTs available - rolled.

The bench has changed multiple times. Playing Virgil rather than JP might pay off or backfire. I can see Anthony outscore a starting player again.
3 FTs after IB for BB8 (or 9). Ndiaye (mci) out for ? and deal with any IB problems.

*VC changed to Gyokeres
October 3, 2025 at 5:18 PM
#FPL

GW6:

Wildcard played

61 pts
OR: 5M9 up to 4M2

Returns for capatain Haaland and 2 x BOU but blanks otrherwise. Gabriel 13 pts & Anthony 6 on bench.

Rejects Kelleher & Watkins get something now they're gone.

A much needed green arrow. Squad looking solid for a bench boost in GW8 or 9.
September 30, 2025 at 12:24 PM
#FPL

WC6:

Out: Kelleher, Konsa, Munoz, Livramento, Salah, Wirtz, Tielemans, Watkins, Wood, Evanilson.

In: Raya, Gabriel, Senesi, VDV, Gakpo,Reijnders, Anthony, Haaland, Gyokeres, Joao Pedro

Staying: Dubravka, Virgil, Esteve, Semenyo, Ndiaye

3x ARS, BUR
2x MCI, LIV, BOU
1x TOT, EVE, CHE

BB 8/9?
September 27, 2025 at 1:21 PM
#FPL

GW5:

34 points
OR: 5M0 down to 5M9

Worst ever start to a season ✅
L's for the W's - Watkins, Wirtz & Wood ✅
Triple AVL blanks ✅
2 highest scoring players on bench ✅
Highest scoring GK on bench ✅

Wildcard activated ✅

Currently on Haaland & Salah draft but that may change.
September 21, 2025 at 5:54 PM
#FPL

GW4:

68 points
OR: 5M0 up to 4M999

Into top 5 million.

Blanks for Kelleher, Wirtz, Wood, Watkins. L's for the W's.
Something for eveyone else including new boy Evanilson.

All chips intact.
September 16, 2025 at 2:08 PM
#FPL

GW4:

1 FT available. Guiu out for Evanilson.

Tielemans moves to the bench who may be needed for yellow flagged Ndiaye.

OR 5M90 0.2 ITB
September 13, 2025 at 9:56 AM
#FPL

GW3:

Green arrow and back into the top 6million!
Defence+ Ndiaye to the rescue. Blanks otherwise but no injuries (yet) and all played at least a few mins.
I don't suppose Guiu will play much at Chelsea but no great urgency in moving on 2nd/3rd bench.
OR: 5M90
Prob no transfer until IB over.
September 3, 2025 at 1:17 PM
Campaigning CAN work.

Don't give up hope.

C'mon UK, EU etc. you can make your politicians and powerful people do the right thing. Accept no more excuses.

GW2:

46 points

OR 5M47 down to 6M13

Returns for Ndiaye, captain Salah, Munoz, Kelleher & Esteve.
Blanks otherwise.

Not too worried at this stage. Only 20% ish of top 10K haven't used a chip. Over 20% have used 2 chips.

Palmer likely to go. Where to use the extra funds?
August 26, 2025 at 3:40 PM
#FPL

Belated GW1 post.

51 pts. OR 5M47.

Chris Wood made a big positive difference, while Thiago's late goal in the same match saved me from NFO clean sheets in other teams.

Salah goal & Muñoz CS only other returns.

No panic - early days.
