GW16. Before this season I actually thought I was good at this game 😂
Swerving recent popular picks like Foden and Bruno has been insanely punishing these last weeks

Never expected Myers, Lankinen and Forbert to suddenly become my favourite Canucks, yet here we are.
Props to Tom Willander and Connor Garland too 👏

GW14. Tiny green arrow. Going to be even harder than I thought to climb out of this mess I have created for myself.

This GW's transfer worked out great, but his efforts were pretty much all for nothing due to this idiot (i.e. Me) not owning bloody Marc Guehi or Daniel Munoz

Bought Gakpo GW9. Guess which week I chose to free hit him out (for Salah) 🤦🏻♂️

GW13. Green arrow BUT exact same score as my non-FH team and also missed out on several popular big scores, so another pretty disappointing week.
Ironically, team could use a FH this week. Senesi, Sarr and Pope all issues, as well as possible midweek rotation to worry about.

GW12. KDH saving my GW from the bench. Otherwise another pretty horrific GW.
First green arrow in 4 GW's, though. A 0pt green arrow, but green nonetheless.
Top 10k here we come!!

GW11. Still getting red arrows at 5m OR, which is quite remarkable really.
I've completely disassociated from FPL & FPL content at this point - which definitely helps the mental state during these terrible gameweeks. Only still going out of curiosity of what horrors the next week could bring...

GW10. Did the same J.Pedro > Mateta move as everyone else.
Benched VdV's haul last week so excited to play him for his 1pt return this week.
If I can't get a green arrow this GW at rank 5m, I don't know what I'm doing here anymore

GW9. Things going from bad to worse. My own worst enemy.
• Sold Salah this GW - scored
• Sold Foster this GW - scored
• Sold Mbeumo last GW - 24pts since
• Benched VdV (for Gudmundsson) - 22pt swing
Time to step away from the wheel for a while.

GW9. Made some desperation moves:
• Salah > Saka
• Reinjders > Gakpo
• Foster > Wolte
Need a good gameweek, but absolutely expecting the worst

GW8. Small red arrow and pretty terrible gameweek.
• Pope over Dubravs
• Sold Mbeumo (for Sarr)
• Brought in Sarr over Mateta
3FT's so tempted to blow it up by selling Salah and getting in some - you know - good players, but will wait till closer to deadline (and hemorrhage more TV, probably)

GW8. Currently going with a lesser-spotted 4-4-2.
Mbeumo > Sarr
Richarlison > J. Pedro
Dodged J. Pedro all season but jumping on just as people seem to be jumping off. Also backing against Senesi this GW. Bench order pretty random 🤷♂️

GW7. Small green. Lyle Foster surprisingly didn't get the haul I hoped for 😂
Richarlison and Mbeumo on the chopping block for GW8 but won't be thinking about that for a while.

GW7. Team looks fine until you get to that forward line.
Team news dependent but likely rolling a transfer (to 4) - not enough $ to do anything substantial this GW.

GW6. Rank rise of almost 3 million should probably be considered a success, but blanks from almost all my "differential" WC picks is kinda disappointing. Doubt they'll stick around for long.
First green arrow of the season.
Will be playing Lyle Foster next GW, so might be the last.

Good job I planned perfectly for the eventuality of a KDH suspension

WC6. Some template picks alongside some (probably) downright stupid picks. Kept Salah, which I'm hoping will prove to be a differential over the coming weeks.
Concern now switches to the highly possible - and some may say inevitable - likelihood of my OG team outscoring my WC team.

Don't really use the FPL app, but just noticed my red arrows show as green there.
I will hereby therefore be using the app more often.
