Keeping faith in Joao Pedro has been a good stroke of luck, Ouattara deserved more today which would of been frustrating if my dull as dishwater transfer Chalobah didn't get his solid 6pts. That transfer got me the green arrow, so i can take some solace in that move.

Next 2 are quite good for Chelsea even if their defensive stats are less than impressive.

Ended the GW on 73pts and still got a red arrow.
Thankfully not a too dramatic drop in rank, but still bitterly disappointing considering the score.

I was certain Saliba would play today but the jitters got the better of me and so made the change. Watch Gabriel go off at HT for a rest now and Saliba do the full 90.

Decent week considering no Gabriel and losing Saliba early. That Ouattara haul will sting for a good few weeks, but I'm doing ok still which is a nice feeling.

Nothing fancy again, wanted to free up more money for next week. Have 2ft and 3.7 itb giving me a decent amount of options.
Kept Rogers as no one owns him, keeps dropping in price, and got rested midweek.

Healthy green and a very happy man this week. Decisions to be made on Spurs players but I'm at least making slow progress up the ranks.

Carried over the other transfer for after the IB, gives me an option for Salah if i decide i canne go in that Utd game without him.

Not bad considering i missed the deadline and didn't make any moves. Green arrow and a bit of relief after not going TC on Haaland.
Waiting till Friday before making moves due to my defenders all being a bit uncertain with injuries, etc.

Out
Johnson
Tchatchoua
In
Rogers
Mings (-4)
It felt like Villa had ok fixtures over the next 3 to justify a hit, this also gives me players more likely to play as Johnson & Richarlison missed West Ham.
Mbeumo is captain, I may of lost the plot.

A half decent bit of luck today to help get me over the line. Big Bernd possibly been my only good GW1 player i started with.
Spurs players will need looking at after Tuesday.

WC played
Defence is markedly better, midfield has players that'll start and bench cover, strikers are decent for minutes in the short term.
Had a thought to potentially FH this team in GW4 so wasn't overly concerned with double Utd and Spurs rotational assets.

Had no choice but to play the WC now as my midfield is shot to pieces and that defence has been me riding my luck since the start.

Probably should show my draft. I've made no changes since doing this when FPL began a few weeks back, you can see obvious issues like both Spurs options here are currently injured.
I also have 4 million in the bank, so i can shake this up a fair bit.
