Third year FPL player. 90k, 60k. Still trying to learn and not make dumb decisions. COYG
Now that we have gotten past officially having the 5 transfers and AFCON players leaving, what are the likely doubles coming? Any chance like last year where we would benefit from 4-5 transfers come GWs 24-25? Trying to decide how aggressive to be in coming weeks

Bro...this stinks
December 10, 2025 at 8:55 PM
A couple more weeks like last week, and you are there! Only 30 points
December 9, 2025 at 8:08 PM
Brentford is great! I heavily considered that as well but just didn't see super strong results from either (obviously fixtures can make form). They have each only scored over 4 points twice in 15 weeks. Just gambling on a 2-week spike with Chalobah (also probably not starting him against NEW)
December 9, 2025 at 8:04 PM
Also, banking on us both getting in the top 13 in the @fplusaleagues.bsky.social #silver league to keep moving up

It could reasonably be
RB - White
RCB - Timber
LCB - Hincapie
LB - MLS

...aka no one who started at that position prior to the most recent game (when we weren't good - gave up more than 2 XG for the first time in forever) and only one normal starter

Saw some discussion of double ARS DEF for this week - I know it is Wolves but the defense is SO much different without both Saliba and Gabriel - if Saliba is back, then a double up is reasonable but good luck knowing who plays when
December 9, 2025 at 7:56 PM
Prior to the injury, I was set with Munoz like I was with Gabriel - he starts every week. But I have both him and Lacroix on the bench. I went Chalobah for a two-week punt before going Tarko in GW 18.

Virgil feels like the hardest one - will play every game, almost scores regularly but chaos @ LIV

These are great charts! Great little debate on @aboveaveragefpl.bsky.social about whether you can win FPL having these guys - they help ensure a great rank but do they help you get to the top

And the greens are coming soon! Stay patient. What are you thinking with the 5 transfers?
December 9, 2025 at 3:51 AM
Yeah that's such a bummer - I did the game earlier in the year where he got like 2 returns in the las tminute. I feel like I was the only one on WC13, which brought in much luck with Foden. I did WC too early last year and regretted it so kept to @pras-fpl.bsky.social's preseason hype of GW13

Great FH!

Also bummed to not be owning some WOL assets for the upcoming period but seems like a no go

I love that you are lifting up some West Ham players on the podcast - enjoying owning Bowen. Not sure about owning Diouf though - you can talk me out of doing him to Timber this week haha.

How are you feeling about Bruno? Debating Bruno to Saka but not sure if that will just be a bland lateral move
October 6, 2025 at 12:07 AM
Josh King is 100% in my GW1 team - maybe not starting though...thanks @planetfplpod.bsky.social

Agreed. I really want to spend less defensively but I don't know how to avoid Gvardiol (assume 6.5) and Gabriel (assume 6.5). Will be interested to see MLS, Raya, Saliba, Gabriel pricing.

Is Hinshelwood likely a DEF next year?
June 2, 2025 at 5:25 PM
MLS is interesting - wonder what his price will be (5.0? 5.5?). He has very little offensive output w/ Arteta operating either at left back or as the deepest-lying midfielder by inverting.
Will Hinshelwood be a DEF?

DEF - Wan-Bissaka, Dorgu
MID - Odegaard if 7.0 (should be fitter)
FWD - Larsen

Thanks for doing it! Made it much more fun running after promotion. Excited for the silver league next year
May 26, 2025 at 11:07 PM
I'm on a 15 point red with Bowen to go - would love a goal! haha
