GW35 - 54pts.

17K >>> 14k 🌎

Very solid week, Eze putting in work.

GW34 - 91pts.

24K >>> 17k 🌎

Just a monster of a GW.

On reflection, pretty pleased with how I mapped out the chips. Yes, this one popped off but the overall strategy and thinking was good on refelection.

Last few weeks to close out a very hot run season.

GW34.

OR 24k 🌍

Free hit week. Hard to get too excited but hopefully can make a gain on those that have already used.

GW33 - 74pts.

25k >>> 24k 🌎

Bench boosted 7pts in GW32 and just the 3pts with the TC in GW33 and still managed two teeny green arrows.

It's not great but I will take it.

Free hit this week looks straightforward.

GW 33

OR 27k 🌍

Two frees.

Murphy >>> Rashford
Estupinan >>> Kiwior

Triple Captain Saka, let's go

GW32 - 86pts.

28k >>> 25k 🌏

A terrible bench boost but a small green arrow. Triple captain and free hit still to come.

GW32

OR 28k 🌏

Gabriel >>> Estupinan

BB active. It was very close between WC and BB but decided to stick with the original plan and go with Saka next week.

BB looks strong.

GW31 - 58pts.

36K >>> 28k 🌏

Not getting the Murphy points is annoying but a good gameweek anyway. 3 chips in 3 weeks incoming.

GW31

OR 36k 🌎

Just a roll this week and then BB next week.

GW30 - 54pts

40K >>> 36K 🌎

Will take that. Now a decision on where to move Gabriel. May just hold for the moment.

GW30

OR 40k 🌎

Late to the party this week but happy with my spot wildcarding. Looks pretty template as expected but I did really like the option of gambling on Saka early.

Boo Arsenal defence.

GW29 - 57pts.

47k >>> 40k 🌎

One of the more absurd weeks in recent memory. Ran hot all year and this one summed it up.

Left myself no room other than to wildcard so the button has been pressed. In a good position for a strong run in now.

GW29

🌏47k

Alisson >>> Pickford
Salah >>> Kluivert

This could be a pretty funky week. I really wanted to avoid burning the Isak gains so Haaland just couldn't work and expect Brighton to lock them down.

Lets go Bruno. Wildcard incoming.

GW28 - 58pts

44k >>> 47k 🌎

Pretty happy to tread water this week given am well set up for the run in.

Annoying not to get the Bruno points but the decision was benching ahead of Pedro anyway.

Will use the two frees this week to get a full team out then likely straight into a WC.

GW 29 - OR 44k 🌍

Rolling the transfer to enable two fts next week and will get a full team out for the blank GW before hitting that wildcard.

GW27 -> 62 (-4) 58pts.

🌎 43k >>> 44k

Really pleased with that week given the captain blank. Continue to run hot, Nkunku great returns.

Now in a fine position to get through to the wildcard in GW30/31.

Almost certainly rolling this week.

GW27.

🌍 43k

Disasi >>> Ait Nouri
Rogers >>> Nkunku

Pivoting away from the GW29 blank and taking a hit this week instead. Just looks like a better option now and can then play the magical 4 chips in a row.

Easy Captain Palmer, benching Isak 😨

107pts.

93k >>> 43k 🌎

Glasner the obvious run good here but Bruno, Beto, Hall, Liverpool defence all going well.

Just gotta run hot at this time of year. Chip season on the horizon.

GW 26 - 93k 🌎

Emery >>> Glasner

So many paths. Am now looking at using the free hit in GW29 rather than holding for GW34.

Still have some flexibility with the Wildcard in terms of activing GW31 or holding until GW35.

This just looks the best for my team but all very close. Lets go Salah.

89pts.

79k >>> 93k 🌎

Bad week. Attention moves to navigating through BGW29 to set up a chip bonanza.

Fairly certain I will take some short term pain to avoid using the free hit in BGW29 and dead end into a GW31 wildcard. Can then play a chip for 4 consecutive weeks.

All transfers precious now.

👏 well played sir 👏

Incredible work. Seriously, maybe I haven't looked in the right places but I dont remember the last time I heard a conversation like this.

I always listen to the podcast whilst multitasking - working, gaming, cooking etc. This time I find myself leaning back in my chair, just totally zoned in listening/watching. Incredible conversations. I was grinning at times and felt a bit tearful afterwards.

Merino as a striker. 😪

Ass Man - Moyes >>> Emery

Konsa >>> Disasi

The Konsa injury is really irritating. Disasi is just a short term gamble for the DGW really... and doesn't hurt me in the medium term.

Still feel behind the curve but been riding the run good all season long.

Well done Beto. Solid work.

🌎116k

Calvert Lewin >>> Beto

Ass Man looked relatively obvious this week so let the chaos of that ensure.

Team looks a bit messy but okay in the short term? Who really knows at this point. Variance be kind please.

Charly Alcaraz 😍 an absolute joy to watch, really hope he does well.

City -1.75 now, not a lot of love for them. That line just has to be too low.

Bloody hell, today's newsletter was so good. With the accompanying youtube vids too and the walkthroughs of the plays. Glorious stuff. 👏 Love these tactical breakdowns.
