X is full of toxicity these days so I am hoping I can have decent conversations with people on here about football and FPL
If I can find a way to nail the last few GW's I think my OR's can improve considerably. Another struggle towards the end but happy with the finish overall

FPL season has completely stalled. No real progress and recent chips were a disaster. Think I am going to roll this GW and hope for some magic on the final day to try and top some mini-leagues

Grateful the season is not over for United. Hoping Amad and De Ligt are back for the semi-finals

Hard to have any sympathy. The enormous TV deals have only helped widen inequality within the football pyramid and worldwide footballing structure, over-inflating players' wages and agent fees, whilst pricing the everyday person out of watching live sport
I know this is the type of story that has many of you looking for your smallest violins but I suspect your favourite teams have been bankrolled by pay-TV money, so there are consequences to pinching this stuff.

DAZN, Sky bosses warn that rampant piracy threatens broadcast industry with financial crisis
'I think there’s almost an argument to say you can’t get exclusive rights anymore because piracy is so bad', a DAZN executive said.

We have got to a point where we have to sell Onana but the issue as always is his PSR cost given he still has a number of years left on his contract. We would have to sell him for around £33m and get someone to match his wages. Think this will be an incredibly difficult sell.

Being aggressive has got me back into the top 100k. That is why I am going Palmer 🧢 over Salah this week. Palmer more likely to blank, but equally more likely to get a hat-trick

Not creating much and continually conceding goals to crosses and set-pieces is a worrying trend. Onana has also developed this knack of continually parrying shots back into the danger area which is costing United. Worrying times really.

Three 100+ points GW's in a row. Assistant manager chip has gone better than I could have imagined

Currently thinking about going against Haaland after GW29 so I can keep Salah. Potentially going to get Foden, Marmoush and Gvardiol and hope that combination + Salah beats or matches those teams that have to sacrifice a lot to get Haaland back

Another very good GW despite the first hit of the season. I got very lucky with Wood points from the bench but chasing table bonus with AM has gone quite well so I'm happy I took the risk.

Was always going to be difficult to get a result given the injuries, but the level of performance has been worrying for some time now. The situation is looking bleak right now given the system doesn't suit most of these players, and there is no money to help mould the squad to suit it.

INEOS have made a couple of mistakes since becoming part owners but worth remembering that the financial situation is almost entirely down to the Glazers. The leveraged buyout, and subsequent debt that United are still paying off is leading the club into a perilous position

Going in the right direction. We go again with Emery this GW

Happy we got the win but for large parts of that match United were a complete mess. No real structure in their buildup, hardly created any chances, hardly used the width the wing-backs give us. Has to improve.

Worried for the first time as a United fan. Playing 6 or 7 defensive players but it isn't making the team more defensively solid. It isn't worth the sacrifice given the attack looks completely devoid of any goals or creativity. Amorim has to be more bolder.

I don't understand the Leon Bailey links at all. Often injured and his goals and assists tallies are massively underwhelming. This would be a huge downgrade on Rashford.

Great second-half. Created loads of chances and the combination play was really good. Mainoo at n10 was outstanding

Not great but an important win. Still seeing individual mistakes and the attack is struggling. United barely create any chances. But the shape looks very good and offers control.
I think with time and the right personnel Amorim will get it right.

Onana isnt a positive in possession anymore and keeps chucking them into his own net. You cannot have a GK that is this much of a liability. Get rid. Garbage.

Thank god for Amad. That performance absolutely stunk for 75 minutes. I just don't trust most of these players. But we cannot keep playing this badly and losing games otherwise Amorim might lose his job and I do not want that to happen because I think this guy will get it right given time.

Not much has gone right this FPL season but bringing in Foden a few weeks back has worked out very well
