- My team

Have noticed most of the bigger FPL content creators drifting back over to X because of the numbers.

I get it. But personally I prefer interacting with people who don't call me a woke snowflake who can fuck off to Lego Land for daring to suggest Musk might be a bit of a madman...

Less is more.

If you've read Henry Winters piece on Rashford and are still making derogatory comments about him... you are literally part of the problem.

If he never plays for Manchester Utd again, he will always be one of our own. And a hero to thousands.

Salah, Palmer, Saka & Haaland all at home to shit defences. Zero goals between them. Thanks once again FPL you tornado of testicular torsion

The gaming equivalent of getting fucking Whammed every single day

Let’s dive in.

Manchester City’s day of reckoning is coming – it may even arrive at Anfield | Jonathan Liew An overreliance on Guardiola’s genius has sent champions down a diverging path to Slot’s revamped Liverpool On this week’s episode of the Rest is Football podcast, the Manchester City midfielder Rodri was asked if he ever fancies emulating Pep Guardiola…

Festive FPL fixture frenzy: Where could rotation strike? The festive fixture pile-up is almost upon us, with seven Gameweek deadlines to negotiate in the space of 31 days. Where could rotation hit?

A romp through the festive fixtures and turnaround times. Never has 'a picture says more than a thousand words' been truer than in the case of @legomane.bsky.social's graphic here:

Early predictions for price changes tonight (www.livefpl.net/prices)

⬆️11 players: Porro + RAN + Mazraoui + Mitoma + VVD + Onana + Odegaard + Young + Aina + Saka + Cunha

⬇️Haaland, Semenyo (if red flag stays), Dunk, Raul, Lewis, Gvardiol, Vardy, ESR, Rogers, Watkins, Neto, White, VdV, Keane, ...

“The broligarchs’ ascendancy on both the foreign- and domestic-policy fronts has taken many observers by surprise—including me,” Brooke Harrington writes. theatln.tc/ToQswFr7

If anybody is, for some reason, interested in our defence, Mazza is definitely the one.

I didn't expect him to be our RCB, but he's been our best defender across both games and got a delicious assist tonight.

He is a BPS monster. If we do keep a clean sheet, he'll get 8 points as a floor.

FPL: We need to talk about Jarrod Bowen GW14 seems enticing. Is he an option?

🚨 FPL: We need to talk about Jarrod Bowen

I’ve just sent this week’s Data Dribble newsletter!

• What changed, and why does it matter?
• Hefty £7.5m price tag and its implications
• What does he have in common with Bukayo Saka?

And much more...

Let’s dive into it

I think it'll soon become clear that the FPL twitter community has moved to BlueSky.
Some of my twitter followers aren't interested in being part of the community, so I plan to post my usual updates on the Blank and DGW schedule on twitter (as well as here), but I won't use twitter for much else.

Trump Media Outsourced Jobs to Mexico Even as Trump Pushes “America First” On the campaign trail, Donald Trump threatened businesses that send jobs south of the border, while his own company that runs the Truth Social platform outsourced coding jobs to workers in Mexico, out...

11/ Part of the anger from Trump Media’s staff came from management outsourcing jobs to Mexico and elsewhere.

How will the company’s actions square with Trump’s promise to punish companies that outsource abroad during a second term?

Trump Media Quietly Enters Deal With a Republican Donor Who Could Benefit From a Second Trump Administration The deal with energy magnate James E. Davison illustrates how Trump’s stake in the Truth Social company, which makes up a majority of his net worth, presents conflicts of interest.

4/ Trump’s company quietly entered into a business deal with a major GOP (and Trump) donor - an energy magnate who has vast lobbying interests.

It’s GW12, the final international break for months is almost fucking over. Every twat and his dog is now on Bluesky.

But who have been the worst 11 players to own so far.

Let’s dive in and find the hell out.

Completely agree. It’s lovely.

That’s a proper statement of intent.

The ball is well and truly rolling! ⚽️
