30 years of 30 years of hurt never stopped us dreaming
The release of the single ‘Three Lions’ is now closer to the 1966 World Cup final than it is to the present day.

A surprise Andersen benching, a surprise Roefs injury and an unsurprising NOR absence makes for 22 points off the bench. 69 overall, and nudging the top 2m OR. I guess sometimes double Arsenal defence is the way?
Now, who will annoy me more - having to play Dubravka or keeping Rogers? 🤔
#FPL
Kelleher (WOL, lee) -4
Or
Dubravka (BOU, ful)
🤔

With reference to last night’s showing from Villa: “2s”? 2s?? I’d be delighted with him returning 2s at this rate…
#FPL
Narrator: I should have.
#FPL
You’ve now got 7 of my starters. And you’ve benched Timber who I started (good); but you’ve also benched Dubravka and Mane who I also benched (bad). What are you doing to us?
A computer can never be held accountable. Therefore a computer must never make a management decision.
Always a good time these days to repost this slide from an IBM internal presentation in 1979.
No definitive news on a pair of City assets = roll the transfers and flex the bench.

VC: Bruno

Double Arsenal defence: not so bad.
Captain Haaland: not so good.
Vice Captain Bruno: excellent.
Green arrow: small.
OR: still over 2m 😬🤔🙃
#FPL
And then the full set!
Well, balls. #FPL #TheOneIDidntChoose #ComeOnMbuemo
60mins +2, Assist +3, Defcon +2, Conceding twice -1, total = 6. Easy.
Why do I own Morgan Rogers? An awful lot of 2s to wait through before any hauls arrive…
#FPL
Took another hit. Had a breakdown. Still on double Arsenal defence and perma-captain Haaland. Bon appetit.
Wirtz & Muñoz ➡️ Mbuemo & O’Reilly

Aw man, I’m definitely glad to hear that. I’ve been almost scared to try the new series…
The more I hear about inverse proportion, the less I like it.
Oh absolutely, my run of red arrows is at odds with the Scout Picks’ success 😆 I’m not sure about whether I should be happy or worried about consistently having that proportion…
There’s a fun thing happening where every week the Scout picks has 5 of my team. Exactly 5. It’s never the same 5 two weeks in a row, but it’s been consistently 5 of them for a good number of weeks. #FPL
My -4 for last week (including Hill in for Keane) gets better and better.
It made it to Apple Podcasts happily for my early morning dog walk this morning 👍💪👏🐶
I think holding onto Timber for his lack of clean sheets and minimal attacking involvement while O’Reilly, Van Dijk, Guehi and even Dalot shoot others up the rankings has been really tough to take.
Hey you guys - I’m starting to think that double Arsenal defence plus perks captain Haaland maybe isn’t the way to go?!
#FPL
Took a hit. In even more of a mess. Two points down in the end, and picked the complete wrong bench order, to an almost comical level. But the most frustrating part is that I don’t think there’s much wrong with my team 😬🙃🤷🏻♂️
#FPL
(Next stop: VVD? NOR? Ditch Muñoz while the going is good?)
Now that Wirtz is out - he should have let Mané take it 👀
#FPL
Arguably it’s better for us non-owners that he scores the goals rather than he gets fouled for the Palmer penalties 😬
