NOTES
- I planned to sell Niklas Castro when I picked him on my Gameweek 18 Wildcard. Brann’s fixtures are now getting tougher, while their recent results have also been poor. Castro then missed their cup match with a minor injury, making the sale even easier.
- I think I’ll bring in Sondre Sørli. Sarpsborg 08 have an excellent run of fixtures ahead. They play four of their next five matches at home. I don’t think I need a strong bench this week. Therefore, I’m happy to keep Eirik Hestad and hope he returns after the international break.
- Fredrik André Bjørkan dropped to the bench last time out. That wasn’t a major surprise, as Bodø/Glimt had faced Bayern München four days earlier. After getting a rest, I expect Bjørkan to start against Brann.
- Amin Chiakha gets my captaincy again. He keeps scoring for Rosenborg and now faces an appealing fixture. Kristiansund conceded eight goals against Viking in their previous match.

NOTES
- I’m making two transfers this week, with Isak Dahlqvist and Niklas Castro making way for Adrian Pereira and Sondre Granaas.
- Dahlqvist is an easy sell as he isn’t first choice. Pereira stands out ahead of Rosenborg’s excellent run of fixtures. His attacking data puts him ahead of Mikkel Konradsen Ceide, who I also considered.
- Castro is also an easy transfer out after a disappointing run. I considered Granaas, Kone Docherty and Emil Konradsen Ceide as replacements. In the end, I settled on Granaas because of his minutes and fixtures. However, there isn’t much between the three.
- Amin Chiakha gets the captaincy. All the data points towards him as the standout option this week. However, never rule out Zlatko Tripić doing what Tripić does.

NOTES
- We’re finally back! I managed a small green arrow last week, and now it’s time for the final push. The end of the season will be here before we know it.
- I made three moves earlier in the week. Adrian Pereira, Emil Konradsen Ceide and Odin Bjørtuft came in for Niklas Castro, Solt and Haitam Aleesami.
- I wanted to hold the final transfer until next week. However, with nothing in the bank, I decided to make it now. I also want to keep this team together longer term.
- Ole Didrik Blomberg was tempting. However, Champions League rotation concerns put me off. I also wasn’t sure which midfielder I wanted to sacrifice for him.
- My plan is to roll transfers over the next few weeks. That gives me an easy route to Blomberg later if needed.
- Zlatko Tripić takes the captaincy. The decision feels fairly straightforward at home to a weak and potentially tired Lillestrøm side. Good luck, everyone!

NOTES
- With a top 1k finish now looking unlikely, I’ll attack the rest of the season differently. I plan to target the easiest fixtures and remove any weaknesses from my team.
- Niklas Castro is the obvious weakness. Brann produced a shocking performance last week, losing to bottom-of-the-table Start. They now face league leaders Bodø/Glimt, so I’m happy to avoid their assets and sell Castro.
- Rosenborg have the standout fixture this week. They come into it in good form and face a Kristiansund side that conceded eight goals against Viking. I already own Amin Chiakha, so bringing in Emil Konradsen Ceide for Castro feels like a straightforward move. It gives me a double-up on the Rosenborg attack while fixing the weakest part of my team.
- Captaincy has to come from Rosenborg for me. Chiakha continues to score regularly and gets the armband this week.
