Yeah, that makes sense. I’ll have to do the same

Saka > Bowen; Saka’s injury forced the transfer, but in hindsight, it helps since he has been on a low-scoring run for a few weeks AND my aim is to bring Haaland back into the team

Easy captaincy decision

Good luck all

Cunha > Jackson; Cunha will get a ban, but it seems me going so early in the transfer might not have been the best move (he could start today vs Leicester!)

Alt-Nouri > Huijsen (another ban situation)

The captaincy was between Salah and Palmer

Captaincy was a choice between Palmer and Salah. Brentford has a poor away record, which led me to choose Palmer. However, Fulham are without Bassey and Andersen, so Salah is definitely a good option too

Made no changes and Palmer as Captain ended up being the correct choice.

2 Wolves left to play who can hopefully push me above 60 PTS #FPLcommunity

Can’t use injuries or any other factors as an excuse tonight. Spurs played against a team that closely mirrors their own playing style and, from the 60th minute onward, were completely dominated while contributing nothing to the game. This reflects poorly on Ange and Tottenham

I'm not one to tell people how to support their own club; everyone is entitled to different levels of expectations, but I have become quite surprised with the sheer negativity of our season so far, BY OUR FANS!

I've got a lot to say and will post it on Twitter after the next game

Yeah, the performance definitely was not up to par, but I just find it hard to blame the players or coach for that match.

Maybe I'm being too lenient, but we just could not field a diverse enough team from a profile aspect. I got a lot to say which i'll post in due time. Maybe during the next game

Spurs’ were unfortunate with the absences and not only the Defenders/GK

Losing two of your direct wide players (Odobert, Moore) AND needing to put your other option (Son) upfront, as you’re missing both of your out-and-out strikers. Means it just becomes a back-and-forth with no control.

I admire the risk, game is all about gambles!

I've been dropping further and further down the ranking, so decided i needed to take my first PTS hit of the season.

Palmer as captain for the Southampton fixture is the way to go

Haaland > Cunha

I’ve finally done it. I have removed Haaland out of my team, AND before his price dropped to 15.1M (now 15M)

No extra FT in the bank, and with Konate unavailable, it'll be just my luck to see Haaland score 2 or more goals #FPL

Man City creating records all over
3-3 - Feyenoord are the first side to ever avoid defeat in the Champions League after still trailing 0-3 in the 70th minute of play. Remontada.

Great result

Give Kulusevski freedom, and you’ll see him shine, just like he has all season. This was a big result and a much-needed 3 points.

We have work to do, but we are under the right coach to get it done. This team will get better and the numbers have shown it all season #COYS
