  1. My thoughts on Wildcarding, the best Chelsea defender and Gameweek 6 captaincy 10 hours, 6 mins ago

    Nice article. Had Alonso at the start. Took him out on WC at GW4 - essentially to bring in TAA, but I could've had both without too much rejigging. So much regret, I feel it might be the worst transfer out I've made in a couple of years. I was mostly motivated by fear of the odd benching to Chilwell, but that's definitely not the kind of decision I would've made last season in DEF. I think it's actually a good position to take a chance on a rotation risk - much easier to have decent coverage than at MID or FWD for benchings. Can easily cover an Alonso or Cancelo with a LIvra, Marcel, White, Duffy etc. I would rate the Chelsea lot as: 1. Alonso 2. James 3. Christensen 4. Rudiger/Azpi I don't think my opinion on that has changed since GW1. » Read

  2. FPL Hall of Fame: Tips and strategy from nine-time 10k finisher Finn Sollie 19 hours, 26 mins ago

    Sorry, missed Raph in the team. If in doubt, would move him for Sarr/Townsend » Read

  3. FPL Hall of Fame: Tips and strategy from nine-time 10k finisher Finn Sollie 19 hours, 39 mins ago

    I like these insights in words (can't be bothered with videos!) Seems Finn is looking longer-term than most, but is very flexible. I can never understand the elaborate "should I get Player X for 2 weeks, then Ship X and Z to get A and B, then jump from B to C after that?" posts. It's just inviting disappointment and/or extra hits IMO. The worst experience I had last year was trying to setup a BB in the DGW for about a month. Absolute tears. » Read

    One week punt, I would move Greenwood and look at Sarr or Townsend. » Read

    Bringing in someone whose team isn't even in the 3rd round. So yeah, low risk. Still normally like to wait and minimise the risk even further - a lot of niggles aren't revealed until the pressers. » Read

    I think mostly you talk about all the unsafe options then recommend the safest. Any differences are on the edges. I'd imagine that is better that promoting risks and when they don't work, get absolutely slated by your audience for leading them to make bad picks. » Read

    Yeah read that and enjoyed it a lot. I mostly ignore price changes as well. This one was fairly low risk at least. » Read

  10. Who has the best FPL fixtures in the next six Gameweeks and beyond? 1 day, 17 hours ago

    I made my FT before the price changes. I think this is the earliest I've made a transfer since the phantom Son injury, GW 4, 2020-21 season (which was followed by a GW5 wildcard). It's all mildly terrifying. » Read

    I'd probably roll it over. Although why Shaw for Livra - creating cap space for something else? In option b, are you starting Coady in GW6. » Read

  12. Who has the best FPL fixtures in the next six Gameweeks and beyond? 1 day, 18 hours ago

    Personally bought him in because he looked reasonably secure and playing OOP. It was a calculated risk. Personally shipping him because I don't have any other clear moves to make, and trying to create a bank for some flexibility down the track. The nailed aspect is a consideration but not primary for me, and I assume most who bought. » Read

    Bench A IMO James more likely to play after missing a game than if he'd played it, surely? Not sure if Chelsea Carabao Cup team will provide any clues. » Read

    I should say in fairness to people "creating content", you have to play to safe for the most part. » Read

    I don't think it's exactly like that - doubt anyone thought he was essential - and there are also easier targets for laughs. For example: Benrahma was an extremely popular trade-out last week. Now he's an extremely popular trade-in. Proving yet again the main determinant is the advanced stat of "last weeks score" All-in on Wolves, Leeds, or any future mid-table team due to fixtures is a permanent good laugh. R James is more nailed than Alonso because Chilwell, completely ignoring Azpi, CHO and Tuchel's selection patterns. Alonso now being considered more even though he is now more likely to miss the next game than R James on the rotation theory. » Read

    Thanks for positing something that isn't asking for trade advice and adds value. Glad it got stickied. » Read

    Absolutely lucky. Don’t think there’s much between 25 and 25k or maybe even 125k. But that’s how I knew the 70 avg thing. I averaged 69.something » Read
