Fintan

Finished my first full season of FPL with an overall rank of 581, 5th in 🇳🇿! Watched every episode of @TheFPLWire (@lateriser12 @BigManBakar @zophar666) and loved using @fplreview and @MikkelTokvam's transfer algorithm. MVPs for the season were Son, Laporte and Rudiger.

Follow me on blue sky 🦋

Think this a good team if you were planning to hold the WC but using it earlier might be better this season, building up FTs and then riding the wave after a GW 6 WC. Anyone found any other nice WC windows? Would love to hear a reason to hold it

First draft for posterity's sake - not sure if I will go with or without Haaland and Trent.

It's not going well...

Was backpacking for most of the day before deadline but managed to find a bar of cell service to do Tsimikas to Lascelles and switch captaincy from Salah to Martinelli👍 2.4m -> 2.7m Too painful to contemplate the paths not taken this season. On the plus side, this view:

I'm interested what people's thoughts are on WC 10: Mitoma + Martinelli + 0.1m or Palmer + Son

Only been playing two full season so fair to say I've gotten quite lucky. I don't think my last 2 seasons rank will stay quite so high after this season 😭

GW6: 81(-4) points Trippier monster haul saves the red arrow. Feeling good about my moves last week even if it blocks off Morris. I'll aim to roll this week and pick WC 10 or WC 19 after. Taking solace in the fact that four points gained is a 400k rank improvement.

GW 5: 2.5m 🌏 A rough start to say the least. Not quite sure what to do this week with 1 FT. I have exact funds for Chilwell/Jackson to Trippier/Alvarez for a hit. Furious for not bringing in Botman instead of Udogie, would have exact for Chilwell to Trips. Thoughts?

Does anyone know if Lewis Hall would start for Palace? #FPL

Shout-out to @aboveaveragefpl for sending me this mug for winning their mini-league last season! No small thing getting anything to NZ 🇳🇿 😂 Looking forward to next season, hopefully with another mug at the end 💪

OR 24 this season moves me up to: 277th 96.90 rating (+2.67)

The final week takes me up to 24th 🌏 and is enough to keep my spot at 1st in New Zealand 🇳🇿 Amazing end to an unbelievable season. Wasn't sure I would ever beat last season's finish at 581, am I on for a single digit rank next season 👀 ?

GW 37 74 points 94 ➡️ 76 Happy with a slight green, the second half of the man United game couldn't have gone much better for me (even if Shaw was subbed). Two FTs going into GW 38. Would be nice if there were some big news to shake it up, otherwise Eze and Watkins likely.

GW 36 92 points 49 ➡️ 94 Absolutely brutal not owning Wilson or Estupinan this week. If Rashford were fit this week I think a lot of those Estupinan points are on the bench. Anyways, still in the top 100 with two weeks left. Rolling or Alvarez in most likely.

GW 35 41 points 51➡️49 A boring week for FPL but fun week for the PL. Mac6 the hero, somehow getting bonus in a 5-1 defeat. Two FTs this week will probably go towards getting Isak in along with a City or Arsenal defender.

GW 34 131 points 150➡️51 A great week made even better by a last minute Mac pen. Will either roll my transfer or swap Schär to Ake or Akanji to make room for Wilson or Isak in GW 36.
