NOTES
- I’m writing my team reveal on Monday this week, as I’ll be travelling over the next few days. Therefore, if anyone in my squad picks up an injury or completes a transfer after Monday, I won’t have seen the news at the time of writing.
- I’ve also made two early transfers. My travel plans played a part in that decision, while potential price changes could have made both moves impossible if I waited.
- My first transfer was Lars Ranger to Ruben Gabrielsen. Ranger could return from injury, but it remains difficult to know whether he will come straight back into the starting XI. Gabrielsen appears to be the safest starter in the Lillestrøm defence and also comes in at a cheap price.
- I used the money saved from that move to replace Teodor Haltvik with Gustav Nyheim. Nyheim offers a cheap route into the Lillestrøm attack and now looks like a secure starter.
- Those transfers leave me with 10 Double Gameweek players in my starting XI, including all three forwards. As a result, I’ve activated the Attack Attack chip.
- Ideally, I would have preferred Thomas Lehne Olsen over Henrik Udahl for the chip. However, bringing him in would have required too many additional transfers, so I decided that the move wasn’t worth it.
- I still have three free transfers available, which gives me several options for the following Gameweek. Lillestrøm and Tromsø both blank, so I’ll need to make some changes. Thankfully, all of my Lillestrøm players are cheap, which should make the situation easier to manage.

NOTES
- My Gameweek 14 team reveal is below. I had to delete the original version and start again following a transfer bombshell, so this is slightly later than planned!
- My planned transfers carried over into this week. Those moves brought Sturla Ottesen and Salieu Drammeh into my squad.
- However, shortly after I made the transfers, a Norwegian news outlet reported a major development. Lillestrøm had reportedly decided to sell Drammeh instead of Felix Vá. As a result, I had to discard my original team reveal and replace Drammeh with Vá, wasting a transfer in the process!
- Thankfully, the five free transfers we received after the World Cup came in handy here.
- I’ve also activated the Attack Attack chip this week. Bodø/Glimt, Hamarkameratene, Lillestrøm and Viking all play twice in Double Gameweek 14. With the chip active, all of my forwards will score double points.
- There is also no need to select a captain when using either the Attack Attack or Park the Bus chip.

NOTES
- It’s an early deadline this week, and a huge one for me with five free transfers available and the first Double Gameweek of the season. I’m also in a strong position overall, sitting just inside the top 300.
- The current plan is to use all five transfers. Leo Cornic, Jens Hjertø-Dahl, Emil Breivik, Teodor Haltvik and Henrik Udahl will make way for Kristoffer Haugen, Felix Vá, Aksel Potur, Peter Christiansen and Sørås. Those moves leave me well set for the Double Gameweek, as shown above.
- I won’t make any early transfers, though. I want to keep an eye on any further transfer rumours, while Odin Bjørtuft‘s injury status could also influence my final plans before the deadline.
- I still have my 2K chip available, and this looks like the perfect opportunity to use it. With both Bodø/Glimt and Viking playing twice, I can maximise its potential by backing Zlatko Tripić and Kasper Høgh.
