NOTES
- I’m rolling the transfer for GW2, and I think most teams will be better off doing the same. Blanks and doubles are coming up, where transfers will be far more valuable. On top of that, this looks like a difficult round to predict, with no real “must-have” players.
- I clearly misjudged the risk of a benching for Abubacarr Kinteh, as he didn’t feature in GW1. That could become an issue in later rounds, but I’m not in a rush to sell. The plan was to bench him this week anyway.
- Viking’s main man Zlatko Tripić gets the armband once again.
- Looking ahead, it’s time to start thinking about the Bodø/Glimt players. Their loss in the Champions League removes the risk of further blanks in GW3 and GW4, and there’s now a strong chance they could even have a double in GW4. We should get confirmation on that before the GW3 deadline.

NOTES
- After a very disappointing Gameweek 1 – missing out on the Hjertø-Dahl hat-trick, largely due to my chip strategy and a penalty miss – it’s time to move on to Gameweek 2. There’s no point dwelling on it. I’m still very confident in how the team looks, so I won’t be drawing any conclusions just yet.
- This week, the team is in a good place. The Tromsø vs Brann fixture could be a tricky one for most managers, but I’m not too concerned. Tromsø’s full-backs still offer plenty of attacking upside and could easily return.
- With the midweek games causing a lot of uncertainty around upcoming doubles and blanks, things look a bit chaotic. Because of that, both chips and free transfers will be key to navigating the next few Gameweeks. For now, I’ll be rolling the transfer.
- The main decision comes down to a benching headache. At the moment, Emil Breivik is on the bench, mainly due to the away fixture against Viking, although it feels like a 50/50 call. Captaincy stays on Zlatko Tripić, given his consistency, a strong home fixture, and the lack of standout alternatives.
- Good luck all!

NOTES
- After a solid start to the season with 65 points, we move into GW2.
- It looks like a straightforward roll this week. However, Bodø/Glimt’s unexpected exit from the Champions League midweek has made a GW3 Wildcard a real possibility, especially if they end up with a double in GW4.
- The final bench spot is a tricky one. At the moment, it’s Alexander Warneryd, mainly because I expect Brann to score and he clashes with my two Brann attackers.
- Captaincy stays on Zlatko Tripić, which was always the plan. That said, Viking’s midweek cup exit, along with a disappointing start to the season, does raise a few concerns.
- Good luck everyone!

NOTES
- After scoring 55 points last week, I’ll be rolling the transfer, with captaincy staying on Zlatko Tripić.
- With Lillestrøm blanking this week, Thomas Lehne Olsen moves to the bench. After his brace last time out, he looks like a top asset – especially with a double gameweek on the horizon.
