          Perhaps. But its just in general with all these pod creators.
          Making videos in the week, leading people into certain players, setting up a team and strategie...and when the gw starts its a whole other team.
          Im not saying i follow-up every move they say, but sometimes it feels not right imo, because there will be a lot of people following what they say

              Im not a fan of copy cats,
              I will always follow-up my gut and will never pay for advice, bit some people do. And if you ask for money you should also give your honest answers to people. Not say left whole week and then change it to right when its too late.

              Yeah that would almost be preferable as would make him a easy captain pick next week

          Same here. I ended up doing Gabriel to Saliba this week so I didn't lose a FT.

          Keeping an eye on Cancelo and Robbo this weekend and how attacking they look.

          A good cameo or start from Isak may get me interested in a second forward and shift from 5-4-1.

          I may end up with Archer to Stansfield though!

        Hmmmmmmm. So the Diaz has covid/is injured rumours explode conveniently minutes before the deadline … no one in the world heard anything until just minutes before FPL deadline … not even a squeak ….. if true there are some nasty little critters out there …

            Probably malicious given the convenient timing … can’t see any ITK comments but mass chatter .. nothing anyone can do anyway.
