Enjoy Football, Cricket, good music and TV. FPL Optimist. Boro fan down south.
I also think it's the case of there isn't a better week for a lot of teams. A lot of discussion about gw16 as alternative but my side looks pretty good for that week and would rather make transfers then than free hit and lose value potentially on price rises

Yes, I watched your show back. Some great discussion. Does feel like a very swingy week. Good to see your fortunes are turning and your climbing up the ranks 👍

I like your side Tom. Can see Saka doing well at Chelsea still. I'm on free hit but fairly template. Still can't decide on this or whether to swap Kelleher and Munoz for Martinez and Van de Berg/Collins. Like the idea of having a palace player still in there. Can't help feeling Sarr will do well.

Like the Cherki/Doku shout Joe. If money no object do you prefer them over Foden still or is it down to what you can do with the money it frees up ?

Agree. Good to see Whittaker started to hit a groove. He seems to have a bit of presence about him now. Think Hellberg will get the best out of him

Very unfortunate not to get something from the game. Played really well. Sad to see fans leaving in large numbers before the end

Can't make the pod tonight but will enjoy catching up later 👍
November 25, 2025 at 8:28 PM
I'm on it Tom 👍

Another case of most transferred player in getting no points - amazing how often this happens
November 22, 2025 at 4:16 PM
Sorry to hear that Dan. It sounds like you're going through a tough time for sure but you'll get through this and find pleasure in the smaller things. It will get better, hang in there and take care !

This sounds really interesting Mark..am really intrigued what a semi-interactive murder mystery podcast will entail !
November 11, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Good luck Tom. Like the moves. Hopefully another green arrow 👍
November 8, 2025 at 11:24 AM
Yes. Remember your opinions on the pod. Quite keen on leaving some money for Virgil in 12 as they seem to be improving defensively and he's due a goal. Saka would use up all the funds and prevent this flexibility
November 6, 2025 at 8:11 PM
Enzo in is a good move Tom..are you tempted at all by Saka or happy to look elsewhere?
November 6, 2025 at 8:06 PM
Thought Mcgree looked great from the bench..much needed positivity and creativity. Ayling attitude great too. Rest disappointing
November 4, 2025 at 10:05 PM
Thanks for posting Ben. Really useful. Hope your fpl luck changes soon too

Yes, agree. I think the ability to have multiple transfers enabled a more proactive approach if anything. I've spent both my transfers this week on Reinders and JP to Sarr and Mateta so will be with you on the 🤞 for tonight. Happy to take the risk. Can always FH if everything goes terribly
October 29, 2025 at 6:18 PM
Great pod as usual. couldn't join live but good to watch back and see the different approaches. A lot of patience/sacrifices due to potentially enable Salah in the future - not sure it's worth it but we'll see..
October 29, 2025 at 6:12 PM
Such a weird season.. never been less sure on transfers. I still haven't owned a forward other than Haaland that's scored a goal 😂
October 26, 2025 at 9:10 PM
Same score Tom. Was quite pleased with it until the Spurs game ! 2 transfers already. Presumably JP frustrations ?
October 26, 2025 at 7:47 PM
Gyok to mateta and Van de ven up to Timber/calafouri ?
October 26, 2025 at 8:04 AM
Brilliant! Having kids puts the ups and downs of FPL into context too. So easy to over obcess about it. Just makes you a bit more ratty sometimes if you have a bad week 😂
October 18, 2025 at 10:14 AM
Ah..you went for it ! I've still got Bruno so hoping Bruno scores obviously but good luck.
October 18, 2025 at 10:10 AM
I think I always know what I'm going to do but I think you're always looking for any confirmation bias 😂
October 18, 2025 at 10:07 AM
Thanks for the advice..I've gone for it. Just waiting on a Foden benching now !. I get the childcare issue. Deadline is always tricky to keep an eye on team news - I've 2 kids of my own so don't like looking at my phone too much (or my wife doesn't 😂)
