Wrote a few words (for the first time in a while) to try and place Salah's early season data in context with his past few seasons.

His positioning was laughably terrible for an FPL asset, compared here to Tyler Adams, Mosies Caicedo, and Declan Rice. They specifically made note on commentary of one occasion Bruno got forward as "a rare forray", a phrase typically reserved for when Craig Dawson runs up the pitch a bit.

I think yesterday's Bruno Fernandes performance was the absolute quintessential Bruno game that he will struggle to top all year. In the *same game* he somehow managed to prove right both those who hate him, and those who love him as an FPL asset.

👀 Salah has 7 defensive contributions at half time?

I was pretty locked into 4/5 def and 4/5 mid for while but went round and round on the 5th mid spot and the front two. I was on Elliot Anderson for the longest time but liked the short term upside for Reijnders. Front two could have been Mateta or Strand Larsen.

Just realized that other than Gvardiol, everyone in my team is classed as either a differential or has EO over 100% and will actively hurt my rank. We all know which players are going to return.

I don't love how they colored a Liberal minority as blue! Still around ~80% for a Lib gov't but more like 50:50 whether that's majority or minority

Remember those tough decisions last week whether to sub-out your 4 or 5 pointer for a great Wednesday option? Not so much this week. 🤢

The new way to prove I have been hacked or kidnapped is if you ever see Theo Hernandez anywhere near a fantasy team with my name on it (I dont play Serie A)

Would have liked to do something more interesting, but injury risks forced a very boring Haaland and Hien to Mbappe and Zappacosta. Hoping to just hold ground this week at around 400 OR and then try and climb a few spots in the run in.

Verbruggen is the sixth keeper to notch a Premier League assist this season (Ederson, Flekken, Pickford, Leno, Sels).

These players would be third on their team in assists if they played for Man Utd.

NASA say the asteroid has about a 2% chance of hitting earth, which is about the same odds as Nwaneri scoring from here. This doesn't feel sufficiently low to give one much comfort.

Ah, maybe not

I have a very poorly timed work call during the hour after #UCLfantasy lineups are released and the deadline so need to largely settle on a team now. I'm on Limitless and currently landing here. Biggest questions are probably Foden and maybe Olise and then whether to play an Inter defender.

Locked in for #UCLFantasy MD7. Really didn't like any options available for Saka and ended up with Trossard. It's a one week as I'll play LL next MD. Might be a tough week with plenty of WCs and LL around together with potential rotation risks. A grey arrow would be fine.

Overall rank: 287

Top solve. Oof

Hard to come up with a more logical yet intrinsically unappealing set of moves.

This was pretty cool. I was searching for the name of a regular piece I used to write a million years ago (12 to be exact!) and I came across a post in the old FFScout comments section where someone first shared a link to my crappy blog with @lateriser12.bsky.social (thanks Tinkerman if on here).

No doubt Cunha is outperforming his underlying data, but the creeping narrative that he is some kind of Almiron isn't fair. He was a very legitimate, analytics pick when many bought him in ~GW10. Hard to see how his production is notably flawed whereas Mbeumo is a valued, underrated asset

Conversely, the games in which Forest have given up more than 1.0 xG have come against better sides. This is obviously intuitive, but most teams don't follow such a clear split.
