GW25: The Green Arrows of Recovery
I’ll be honest, I’ve not enjoyed the last three weeks. I started the blog on a wave of green arrows, heading towards the top 1k. Since then, I’ve overthought things, I’ve tried to be clever, and to a certain extent I’ve run out of luck. I’ve seen so many Red Arrows you’d think I was…
GW23 / DGW24: Acropolis Now
The Parthenon is in Ruins If GW22 was a Greek Tragedy, GW23 was the night where the lead actor turns up drunk and wets himself on stage, leading to terrible reviews from vindictive critics who have just been waiting for something to go wrong. And if that was GW23, well DGW24 was the beginning of…
GW23 Preview: Why Pay Mau?
I have a cunning plan. A plan as cunning as a fox who has just been appointed Professor of Cunning at Oxford University. It might not work of course. DGW is just around the corner and any sane person wants 3 Liverpool players. I have Mane and TAA, so there is room for one of…
GW22: A Greek Tragedy
I’m so close to being top of the Greece league and I’m sad. Not for me, I’ll be fine. But I’m sad for you because I have some really great content lined up for if I ever do make it to the top. I just hope you get to see it. It is now two…
GW22 Preview: Am I Madd?
One fixture stands out above all others this weekend. Despite Southampton sorting themselves out since the last time, and nobody is expecting a repeat, Leicester should still have a good go at smashing them all over the place. 3-0 seems like a not-unreasonable prediction. My problemo: I already have 3 Leicester players and Maddison isn’t…
GW21: Happy New YEAAHH!
Having decided not to make any transfers, I was obviously fairly satisfied with my team going into GW21. My only doubt was whether I’d made the right call on Pope over Schmeichel and which of my bench would score points. Strong pedigree for bench points across the board there. First up, the early kickoffs are…
GW21 Preview: New Year, Return to Mediocrity?
For the first week of the new year, no fixtures really jump out as ones I want to bring players in for. A few players who are tempting: Maddison – he really is very very good, although I already have 3 Leicester players so I’d have to use 2 transfers to get him in, and…
A brief-as-possible recap, Part 2 (GW11-20)
TL:DR Version.. GW11: Tomori in for Matip. Everything works in my favour. Prince Charming scores and gets a clean sheet. 14 points for him. Vardy scores again, obviously. 5 in 3 since coming into my team. Abraham scores and gets an assist. 12 points for him. Then first sub John Lundstram scores twice and ends…
A brief-as-possible recap, Part 1 (GW2-10)
TL:DR Version.. GW2: Pukki! I was right! But I bottled captaining him. Went with Salah who did nowt. Firmino and Sterling scored at least, but other than that it was a couple of assists from my MF and a very poor show from my DFs.52 points, up into the top million. GW3: WILDCARD ALREADY! Nothing…
FPL 19/20: Gameweek 1
Note: Don’t worry, I will do a much shorter recap of the other 19 weeks Having made my predictions, it was time to choose the potential Absolute Legends who would be pulling on the [blank colour] shirt of Westermania in this surely breakthrough season. Sterling and Salah, obviously, only a fool wouldn’t have both of…
