• We’ll get Bodø/Glimt’s starting XI before the deadline again this week. They have an extra day’s rest compared to last week, but Fredrik André Bjørkan and Andreas Helmersen could still miss out. Their involvement will determine both my transfer plans and captaincy decision.
• If Bjørkan and Fredrik Sjøvold both start, I’ll sell Alexander Warneryd for Adrian Pereira and bench Uba Charles Nwokoma. This might look like a kneejerk reaction to Pereira’s 17-point haul last week, but I’ve had this move in mind for several weeks. Tromsø face a difficult run of fixtures, while Rosenborg have an excellent schedule for the remainder of the season. Unfortunately, I should have made the move a week earlier!
• If Bjørkan misses out again, I’ll still bring in Pereira, but I’ll sell Bjørkan instead of Warneryd. This would also free up a spot for a third Bodø/Glimt player later on. I’m comfortable going into next week’s match against Viking with just two of their players.
• Selling Bjørkan would leave me choosing between Nwokoma and Warneryd for a starting spot. I currently prefer Nwokoma, as I fancy Aalesund’s chances against Sarpsborg 08 more than Tromsø’s against Viking. I originally planned to start Claus Niyukuri, but he has lost his place in the starting XI for the last two matches. I simply can’t trust his minutes anymore.
• In attack, I have eight players I’d happily start, so Helmersen’s involvement will shape my final decision. If he misses out, I’ll put him on the bench and start my other seven attackers. However, if he starts, I’ll need to leave someone else out. Heine Åsen Larsen currently occupies that spot due to his difficult fixture, although I could bench Marcus Haagensen Reed instead. When I brought Reed in on my Gameweek 18 Wildcard, I expected to leave him out most weeks. However, his excellent performances during the second half of the season have completely changed my thinking, and I now want to start him.
• Captaincy feels wide open this week, with strong options from both Bodø/Glimt and Viking, alongside Amin Chiakha and Emil Breivik. Helmersen currently has the armband, and I’ll stick with him if he starts. Otherwise, I’ll likely choose between Chiakha and Peter Christiansen. The latter has scored in seven consecutive matches across all competitions, and I currently find him a more exciting captaincy option than Zlatko Tripić.

• My plans are very much up in the air this week. With four free transfers and 1.6m in the bank, I have plenty of flexibility. I could either make three transfers or save them all for next week!
• Bodø/Glimt’s starting XI will play a big part in my decision. If Andreas Helmersen misses out, I’m considering selling him alongside Sondre Granaas and Alexander Warneryd to bring in Alvheim, Ole Didrik Blomberg and Mikkel Ceïde. However, if Helmersen starts, I could easily roll my transfer and head into next week with five available. This feels like a week where things could swing massively either way.
• Amin Chiakha gets the captain’s armband again, which feels like a fairly straightforward decision. I’ll also leave my Tromsø players on the bench due to their difficult away fixture.

• This week’s fixtures fall under the slightly confusing Gameweek 12, following the World Cup’s impact on the schedule. The league originally planned this round for July before moving it to October.
• I’m planning to roll my transfer, giving me five free transfers to work with next week. That should put me in a strong position to target the potential title decider between Bodø/Glimt and Viking, alongside some favourable fixture runs across the final four Gameweeks.
• I’ve also decided to bench Alexander Warneryd for Tromsø’s difficult clash with Viking. That allows me to keep the in-form Marcus Haagensen Reed in my starting XI, which feels like the better option this week.
• Finally, Amin Chiakha gets the captain’s armband again. His favourable fixture against HamKam makes him a straightforward choice this week.
