Any 52/48 breakdown is still triggering …

Gotcha - that was the reference I needed for today!

Oh wow - the Debenhams building has been converted into university buildings?! I knew it was happening - I used to get on the bus from Cheltenham into Gloucester and walk through the brutalist concrete squares into the iconic Debenhams many times over the years!

Today’s game didn’t affect me too much - just squeaked a one point green arrow. Was looking so much better until Watkins’ goal was disallowed and then Joao Pedro happened …

Done - interested to know your findings!

Forgot to post my team!

GW29 🔐

🧢 :Semenyo
🌎 :724K

Transfer rolled - really wanted Ekitike but would’ve meant ditching Haaland or taking a hit. Still came close to doing both but went for an uncharacteristically sensible roll

Good luck all! 💙

83 all out - hit takes it down to 79 and 724K. First decent week I can remember in ages and a 12 point green arrow. Fully admit I got lucky with Bruno vice and KDH bench jam but I’ll take it!

Yes, absolutely. If he’s doubtful now there’s every chance he only plays one game in GW29-31 and I’m wildcarding in GW32

I want Ekitike and that’s the easy and obvious way for me to get him

DCL not a bad shout actually. Just need someone for GW29-31 and then I’ll wildcard

I’m so finished with Watkins but who can I even rage transfer him to?

I’ve got Haaland and Thiago and no cash so can’t afford Gyokeres or Ekitike. I’m thinking Raul Jimenez but what are his minutes going to be like? Maybe Sesko finally starts, but if not, who else? Evanilson? Pedro?

Looks good! Might be tempted to go Rice over Hall?

GW28 🔐

FT: Timber ➡️ van Dijk
FT: Wirtz ➡️ Wilson
-4: Guiu ➡️ Thiago
🧢: Haaland
🌍: 930K

Wirtz injury has pushed me into a -4 but that’s ok. Last chance saloon for Watkins, he could be rage transferred out before the second game if the week has started …

Good luck all! 💙

Yeah I think I’m leaning towards Wilson. I’d really like Rayan though, he seems much more fun

Ok at least I have exact money to go Wirtz and Guiu to Thiago and 5.9M midfielder. But who?

Wilson
Dango
Tavernier
Rayan
Anderson
someone else 🤷‍♂️

Was not expecting that about Wirtz but at least it’s clear confirmation.

44 all out, three point red and still just clinging onto the top million. I need an exciting week!

GW27 🔐

Rolling FT - Captain Haaland

OR: 885K

I’ll be hiding behind the sofa for Palmer and Pedro and already planning next week’s moves. Pretty fed up with my constant non-moving rank, but guess there’s still time. Good luck all! 💙

The predicted lineups from @emma1.bsky.social are brilliant - here it looks like 80% of Arsenal experts think Timber starts and 20% think White comes in

Two point red arrow. Felt a lot worse and could’ve been so much better if I hadn’t taken a bit to remove Rice and get Gabriel in to TC him. Dorgu to Bueno and captain Rice was the play I came close to but chickened out of.

GW26 🔐

FT: Dorgu ➡️ Gabriel
FT: Rice ➡️ KDH
-4: Andersen ➡️ Hill

🧢 🧢 🧢 : Gabriel

OR: 797K

Let’s do this!

For GW26 I want to go Dorgu/Rice to Gabriel/Rayan with 2FT but need a raise 0.7M via an additional -4 to facilitate. Which is best?

Wirtz —> Enzo
Andersen —> Hill
Watkins —> Pedro
Mbeumo —> Rogers

Or any other suggestions? I’m leaning Hill because I don’t want to lose any of the other three

68 all out - grey arrow bang on safety score.

810K —> 797K, small rise but sounds better as it begins with a lower number … 🤷‍♂️

Just hijacking the conversation to say it’s my favourite movie of all time. Might not exactly hold up to modern CGI standards but anything with Jimmy Stewart is watchable again and again for me

If you see this post, post a character that begins with D

GW25 🔐
🌎 : 810K
🧢 : Bruno Fernandes

Transfer rolled - midfield looks strong but feeling light on Chelsea. And no idea how to get Gabriel into the team, that can be next week’s problem with two FTs

Good luck all! 💙

Worst thing is I bottled exactly the same move last week (for a -4). JP hauled from the Chelsea bench and my Watkins autosub (Andersen) came on for a zero pointer. If Watkins stays fit he feels like a good hold though. Waiting on the Emery presser

I’m the same - real FOMO for the pair of them but nobody I want to ditch. Wirtz for Enzo possibly, but I like having Wirtz as a differential. If Watkins is doubtful I’ll go to JP but otherwise it’s the Chelsea game behind the proverbial sofa for me.

69 all out and an 8 point green. 986K —> 810K

Best week in ages but could’ve been so much better. Transfers cost me 13 points and I bottled out on a last minute -4 of Watkins to Pedro which could’ve gained me a handful more.

At least a decent move in the right direction.

My Senesj to Dorgu move this week not looking the most astute 🤦‍♂️

GW24 🔐

FT: Senesi ➡️ Dorgu
FT: Cherki ➡️ Mbeumo
🧢: Fernandes

Yes I was one of the fools who went early on Dorgu, he can be next week’s problem now.

Debated moving Watkins out for a hit (Pedro? Thiago? Evanilson?) but decided to risk that he plays.

Good luck all! 💙
