Chelsea XI prediction for gw14.

Probably the hardest one to predict all season with this being the first midweek rotation for the "A" team. I think the core of the team stays the same, but 4-5 changes will be made.

Some interesting decisions on Jackson v Nkunku and what shape he'll go with...

Have seen a few considering Semenyo vs. Kluivert this week for FPL and I have a bit of a crush on Bournemouth so thought I might throw a thread together. 🧵

You already know wealth is unequal but did you know how unequal?

On official figures, the top tenth own half of everything

The bottom three-tenths? They own 1% of all the wealth between them

Wealth has raced ahead of earnings, creating a new caste society

Tax is only part of the answer: we also need a new political economy that differentiates good & bad wealth

I ended up on a pretty off-beat strategy this season. I haven't WC'd, I used my Free Hit in GW9 and I've taken a lot of big bets against the crowd.

Some analysis of how the fuck I got here here - I don't know where I'm right/wrong tbh

Buckle up bitches it's a 🧵

Updated look at spread market player goal & assist projections, for the rest of the season

Saka, Gordon, Vardy & Trent markets missing with injury doubts, but JP, Øde & Havertz back from the last update

Saka would be projecting ~11.5G/8.5A, Gordon ~8.5G/5.5A based on scaling previous GW markets

Have been thinking about takeaways from the wonderful bps podcast from @aboveaveragefpl.bsky.social and I think I have found something vaguely interesting re: forwards and the value of their first goal vs additional goals. This season forwards have 191 bonus points from 110 goals.

I was so ready to jump ship to BlueSky when the Xodus started. I hate what twitter outside of the FPL bubble has become.

This article hits the nail on the head.
