In #FPL #GW12 I sold Haaland.

I came off the back of Haaland (c) v Spurs, TC fail on Haaland (c) and 7 back to back red arrows pushing me to 3.5m.

I decided to stop looking at my rank, sell Haaland/distribute the funds. It coincided with me opening a BlueSky account…

🐝 Mbuemo -2 BPS v CRY
⚪️ Robinson -3 BPS v SOU

FPL currently do not manage OPTA BPS changes beyond the final match of the gameweek.

It’s resulting in players receiving no BPS when they should have.

@planetfplpod.bsky.social flagged this issue a few months ago…

Looking ahead to #DGW24 #FPL

Which defender would make way for Myko, if any:

⭕️ Gabriel (MCI)
🦅 Munoz (mun)
⬜️ Robinson (new)
⚫️ Hall (FUL)

Fixture ticker long term says Hall, though perhaps not a good week to jump off.

Alternatively I ignore the EVE double…

lmao no, TikTok users are not moving to Bluesky. They would literally rather learn Mandarin than learn how to read a feed of text posts. This is a millennial retirement home.

📉 55 Points

🤚🏻 My run of green arrows ends

Late share as I travelled to Thailand over the deadline, decided to roll as a result.

Not a lot to shout about, NFO my biggest rank killers + Boomo.

🎲 #GW21 likely to roll again… with a benching headache on Banana Beach.

🚀 Seven green arrows in a row since #GW12 and a 2.3m rank rise.

I played blind with rank for six of these weeks, which I enjoyed.

Nestled in the top 703K now as we enter 2025 and the second half of the season. Four chips in hand. Feeling a strong top 50K finish can still be achieved. #HappyNewYear

🚀 84 Points

🔥 Double Liv defence / New attack
♻️ Seven green arrows in a row

TAA repaying last week’s FOMO. Decided I’d follow that up with Muñoz FOMO, in for Timber. One consideration to move off was the 4 ⚠️ he was given his 5th last night. Luck vs Skill….

🎲 #GW20 likely to roll.

This is a first world #FPL problem…

Do I need to give up on the Munoz dream?

I accidentally built an Avengers level FPL defence.

#FPL #GW18

🚀 72 Points (-8)

🔥 Gordon, Timber
♻️ Six green arrows in a row

The decision to spread the Saka cash early paid off. Many are now moving to Sarr/Gordon, predicting future moves is how I enjoy playing. TAA, in hindsight, was led by fomo.

🤔 next GW is either a roll or bring Munoz in…

Boxing Day. Leftovers. Football.
December 26, 2024 at 11:51 AM
19 hours later, 2 more players for Santas Sak 🥁 to consider:

4️⃣ Sarr
5️⃣ Gordon

The above allows Greaves -> TAA. I’m unsure on TAA vs rotating Hall/Robinson. I may sell Timber soon.

The Saka injury has inadvertently hurt the Allison pick imho as now money is free for all to move to TAA including me.
