GW17 92pts ✅
Mixed emotions. Obviously stellar week. But I was 2 benching decisions away from 115pts. Missing 1 haul happens, missing 2 seems excessively cruel.
Big decision on Saka this week. Can’t rush. Feel it will be very important how I use those funds.

Urgh, Saka dropping last night means I'm 0.1 off a lot of potential plans. Stupid Xmas party got in the way!
Think this means I'm gonna have to go without Trent for the moment, which is terrifying.

GW 18 - 11/11 home players. Easy captain choice. Hopefully everyone is fit and not suspended, and I can enjoy my Xmas hangover without having to make any FPL decisions.
In theory one of the easier rolls of the season. Although there is scope for punt in the Gordon/Rogers position.

Picking Castagne over Robinson is like picking Dragusin over Porro.
Yes it will save you budget but he isn’t a nailed on player, has little attacking threat and a reminder that Fulham have only had 2 CSs all season.
He is not the Messiah.

This Spurs attack is so potent. But, I just don't see an asset that I want to invest in. Maddison is probably the stand out, but just can't trust his mins. Son is always the lynch pin, but again his mins are so poor.
Would love to get one of them, but not until I see 80+ mins on a regular basis.

Early GW 17 plans - 1FT
Mykolenko OUT
Robinson IN
This was always the plan as BOU & FUL rotate so well.
Will stick with the Gordon punt for 2 weeks.
Then GW19 the plan is Gordon & JP to Eze & Raul (this could be Iwobi/ESR & Mateta).
GW19 is a long way away & lots can happen to derail said plan.

The Gordon > Mbeumo move did in fact backfire slightly. But was a 3 week punt. So will add up over the weeks to see how profitable or not it was over time.
Week 1 -
Mbeumo - 10pts
Gordon - 6pts
Total win/loss = -4pts

Forgot to update earlier as was on the golf course. 2FTs
Mbeumo & Lewis OUT
Gordon & Huijsen IN
Feel like Gordon could have got more out of that fixture today. But a cracking day regardless
Robinson for Myko was always the plan next week. Myko continues to smash it on the bench

Even though it feels sensible to use 1FT on my defence & roll the other FT, it does feel quite boring
On the other hand Mbeumo to Gordon with my 2nd FT is a punt, a 3 week gamble before Gordon becomes EZE/IWOBI. It could backfire. But seems fun
I think I’ll take the fun road & cry when Boomo hauls

GW16 POA
Lewis for Huijsen(BOU) is happening. Playing Gabriel & Myko vs Ars(a) comes in if hes out. Not great, but the alternative is I bring Robinson(FUL) vs LIV(a) in a week early. So I don't see the huge upside.
Meanwhile I can take a punt on Mbeumo > Gordon for 3 weeks.
How are you looking?

There is a very real possibility that I make 3 defensive transfers in the next 2 weeks. NOT IDEAL!

This aged well after the weekend. And I think I’m gonna stick with him again. Hopefully Brentford can figure out how to play away from home!
As much as I understand that Mbeumo has been underwhelming of late. I don't see a clear alternative. Pair that with the fact he is still on pens, a 90mins man & has good pedigree. I think I'm leaning on keeping him for 1/2 weeks, bank the transfers & move with more info and free transfers in 16/17.

It’s frustrating how many of my decisions this week are reliant on Gabriel’s fitness.
Praying he gets a start in the CL, even if it’s just 45mins.
We certainly won’t get any information out of Arteta.

Not bad considering i only had 2 playing defenders and one of them got sent off.
Defence is a shambles. Have 2 FTs to start to sort it out. Praying Gabriel is back this week 🙏

Haaland and City being bad is bad for the game. That template of the 3 premiums, 2 Ars & RAN defence with JP, Cunha and Jackson up top is going to be everywhere.
Will be very hard to make significant rank increases until city start improving.

Salahs haul actually hurt my rank by about 200k. But no complaints.
