Faded the grey arrow with the last minute Greaves goal. Gakpo from 0 to 25pc ownership stung. Currently deciding whether to start Timber or Ait Nouri next week.

Pen takers is just the fpl meta with the way the game is set up - can’t honestly bench Bruno for Rogers. Rolling for the second week in a row. Want Mbeumo back soon; no interest in Everton obviously. Think Bournemouth will beat Forest, who I think have rode their luck a bit lately. 37k GL all!

Stopped the run of two reds with a green arrow in fpl this week off the back of an old school Liverpool clean and back to 36k where I’ve been bobbing about for the last 6 weeks. Should hopefully be able to roll at least.

transfers came in nicely but missed cap so that’s 2 solid reds on the spin and back to 58k

Would bite your hand off for a grey arrow with this team- Roger’s fifth yellow means I have to start Bruno. Plus if Liverpool Man U is postponed I’m completely screwed (also meant to be travelling down south for it). Only one free so something like Bruno to Gordon feels too luxurious.

Great week (even though the Arsenal boys couldn’t get me over the line) after a couple of bad ones - up to 26k. spent most of last week thinking who of Pedro and Bruno to bench this week but probably going to have to play them both

A. Ramses Becker in. Team looks good (but I thought it looked good last two weeks). 60k 0 frees 1m - GL all!

15k red. guess i’m making a gk transfer with my free this week -between Sels and Alisson- the latter locks me in to TC Salah in the everton dgw. I haven’t really looked into the assman chip but hopefully there will be another decent time to play it

With only one free there’s no festive fun for me (Saka to Bruno). Having brought in Joao Pedro last week I was really happy with my team but hadn’t factored in poss having to move funds- if Id have rolled I’d probably have ended up bringing in Jackson this week instead. 44k 0 frees 2 milly. GL all!

81 points and missed a 7th green on the bounce to slide back to 44k. Bruno looks the obvious choice for Saka replacement- don’t really have the squad depth for jota/diaz and Ode blocks a 3rd arsenal. Maybe I’ll tank my season for Phil.

Achievement unlocked: had to pull over at 10:55 to make a transfer as I didn’t register the early game. Joao Pedro in for Strand Larsen (kept Ait Nouri so banking on a Timber start- you never know the new manager might play him at left wing ;)) 0 frees 0.2m 40k GL all!

Expected the worst for the gameweek after the Robertson red card but take the grey arrow and move on. Lucky Gabriel started in the end!

Enzo Trent and Isak in for Mbeumo Lewis and Watkins. Ideally wanted to keep Lewis but couldn’t risk Gabriel benching with no news (better for me if he just misses out now). Lot of people I respect on Palmer cap- I fancy Mo’s form plus think Brentford are better than Fulham. 0 frees 0.5m 50k. GL all!

Hit captain get a green. Even the banter boys at the back chipped in, and Wood continues to be great. 3 transfers and will probably spend them all as don’t have much interest in Haaland.

Rolling two frees then. Wood comes in for Salah. Flekken over Fabianski because i need some Wolves goals and Newcastle are inconsistent anyway. Swapped captain to Palmer as I was probably underrating Fulham a little. Don’t think Watkins will get 70+. Waiting on Lewis news for bench order. GL all

Timber ensuring a green to near 100k despite not hitting cap. Watkins trying to make himself indispensable in my team. Lost patience with Wolves. Could roll, could use my two frees to swap Mbeumo to Trent but whilst aesthetically pleasing feels a little sideways

Rolling. RAN over Lewis and Rogers over Wood. Need goals in Villa game, so hopefully Brentford oblige. GL all

much more satisfying chunky green this week with Strand Larsen outscoring Cunha. Haven’t decided about Joao Pedro and if I’m just keeping Wood, would need to do Strand Larsen out tonight as I’ve only got 0.1m spare, but with just one free I’ll probably roll

Ok so Timber in for Konate and will have to forego JP for another week (thankfully just a few days). Happy I didn’t pull the trigger on JP last night #personalgrowth . Salah (c) GL all!

Had to eat another JP price rise whilst waiting on further Konate news today (sounds like he’ll be out but not long term). Reasonable case to bring in JP for any of my attackers, but looking like I’ll have to use my one free on Lewis out for someone like Van Hecke (or Timber for Konate if bad)

Don’t know if it’s just cause i’m not as dialed in to fpl this season but can’t remember being so underwhelmed by what is a fairly chunky green (thanks again Flekken!). Think it’s because everyone in my ml has Cunha, and the best thing about fpl is watching your classy players pop up with a pearler

Was all set on bombing Lewis out for Timber but settled on Konate in for Mykolenko- having to start him against City is next week’s problem. 0.2m 0 transfers. GL all

Right then- how do I spin this fplreview graphic in a positive light? :)
For context:
i’ve spent less time each week on fpl this season than last few years and (uncorrelerated but) my team is probably the least template it’s been in years (still own Watkins)

pros
1. 5.5m
2. Ben white out for the pile up
3. I can join in the Lewis exodus
4. Niche office reference
Cons
1. i’ll have double arsenal D and Wood first bench this week
2. Konate still 0.1 cheaper
3. Arsenal still might still end up conceding exactly one goal a game over the stretch
