    Long way to go in the game, but BBing this week with Tav and Dub feels so good. If Kroupi goes and gets something...

    do you think Hill is helping Bournemouth's defence become just that little bit more solid again?

    also frustrating to see Rice was upped to 11 defcon late on in the GW 😥

    So having changed his mind and rescinded Adli YC, why didn’t he give Verb a YC?

    1. FPL Sanky

      Because he had Verb in his FPL team

    2. Too embarrassed!

    These content creators getting crappy pick like Tavernier and jammy pen points, always painful, still don't think he is a good pick, fixtures are meh

      Depends on your chip strategy I guess, but they are literally top of the fixture ticker between now and 31 (popular WC window).
