FPL Review Elite 1k 23/24 Overall Rank - 2,261 Ironman finisher, FPL addict and LUFC season ticket holder…so clearly a glutton for punishment!

If you’ve not yet watched Adolescence on Netflix, watch it. Episode 3 is up there as one of the best single episodes of TV I’ve ever watched. The acting, cinematography and script are all phenomenal.

Absolutely buzzing that Keith Dunn is on BlueSky. Keeping up with the Barkley was one of the few things I thought I’d miss about that hellscape bot app that ultimately replaced Twitter. #BM100

Ten runners completed Loop 1 within the time limit; 9 continued to Loop 2. 14 runners have been tapped out; 16 remain on Loop 1 and will be tapped out when they return. #BM100

Both FT’s used. DCL to Ndiaye, Dibling to Dango. TC Salah. Now, I’m absolutely praying for the ~4% chance of being able to FH25 into Arsenal/Chelsea/Spurs/Fulham. #FPL

So; this gameweek’s going well. Odegaard ill, DCL off the bench for him…who then gets injured before the pen. Two late Liverpool cleans ruled out. Good times.

Both of us owning Bruno for most of the season only for us to get cucked by him this week as we hold Ødegaard. We all know how that script will play out.

Didn’t check my team for about a week and came back to a bin fire. EV pretty much stinks. Rolled my 1 FT as opposed to getting back onto Bruno from Ødegaard. #FPL

Somewhere in Yorkshire there's a bunch of secondary school kids turning to their parents and saying "See, I TOLD you he was a dick" #TheTraitors

Probably fair to say that over the 2 week period that so far this use of 3 FT’s was…very unsuccessful. Hindsight optimal of course!

3/4 FT’s used. Bruno finally departs the team, along with Mbeumo & Flekken. Odegaard, Eze & Pickford in. Cunha to Isak already pencilled in for this evening with the rolled FT! #FPL

Team needs a bit of surgery now though but fortunately sat on 4 FT’s. Looking like Bruno & Flekken to Alisson & Eze and hopefully can still then afford Isak in GW20 unless he continues to rise rapidly in value every day!

I stand by Review was too low on Cunha back when I brought him in because of (imo) too low pen share, but this is some generational xG over performance from him since! Assuming not banned for the Spurs game, I’ll be keeping him again.

The manic festive period coupled with a potential banned player incoming…yet, another roll. Up to 4FT’s now. May use a few next week, but again likely Cunha dependent. #FPL

Small red arrow from 80k - 87k. even with 55 points coming in the last game! Team looks pretty good for next week too (bar the probable Cunha ban). May just end up rolling again. #FPL

Rolling this into 3 FT’s next gameweek. Review wanted Andersen over Trent, but I just can’t bring myself to do it. Slim possibility it won’t even matter any way if Cunha gets banned post deadline! #FPL

I really wish there was a FREE Team Model that could tell you the best choice by: - being more accurate than the markets this season - giving clean sheet % - breaking down win/draw/loss % - projecting multiple weeks into the future *Disclaimer: This post is paid propaganda of elevenify.com

Thoughts on the mystery chip, #FPL managers?

Man, Leeds are just SO so good this season. In any typical Championship season there are like 2-4 excellent teams and then [Everyone Else]. This year Leeds are miles apart in performance, and one of the best defensive teams I can remember in the league.

Gabriel out means I’ll need a Dunk start off the bench. Did at least avoid the two alternative lines of Gvard to TAA or Andersen to Colwill by rolling at least. #FPL

The fact that 3 of these, plus my only fit bench option who I’ll very feasibly need, don’t play until Thursday almost makes this team worse. The slow, painful creep of the impending red arrow.

Buzzing with that one, into the top 150! Pretty consistent rise bar a 2017/18 fall off. Great work once again from @fplresearch.bsky.social #FPL

Also, pleased with the consistency of the “performance” score and rank percentiles across 14 (yep, FOURTEEN) seasons. The bit that’s questionable is spending that much of my life on this ridiculous pastime.

Red arrow from ~140k to ~175k but the team suddenly looks a bit threadbare with a combo of injuries (Andersen & maybe Gab)/illness (Solanke)/suspension (Dibling)/xMins risks (Gvardiol). Only got 1FT too and 1.4m in the bank, so every possibility I just roll and pray I can get 11 out. #FPL

There’s the cameo then. Assuming Gabriel plays tomorrow the Josko screamer is practically nailed on now. #FPL

Chris Corkery@chris.football

Stuck with this. Got a weird hunch I may regret it by end of gameweek though. Dunk cameo & Josko worldie incoming. #FPL

This guy’s just an absolute baller. Top of the league, onto Saturday we go. #LUFC

⚪ Ao Tanaka vs Luton Town: ▫ 114 of 120 passes completed ▫ 13 passes into the final third ▫ 5 of 7 long passes completed ▫ 5 of 7 ground duels won ▫ 4 ball recoveries ▫ 2 interceptions ▫ 2 fouls won Here we go again. #lufc

Did Gabriel to Trent with my one FT last night to avoid eating a price drop on Trent. Bit frustrating having only brought him in last week, but it is what it is. Having a load of attackers v defenders isn’t ideal but the DCL redemption arc this week when he braces is about to hit like crack. #FPL
