*Musings*
FPL - Let me tell.

The game and the community growing by the day.
Used to be a little village with cobbled streets and hay.
Gone big time now – a multi-ethnic-metropolitan-city. We’ve even got our own rock cult piggy (@pig_fpl).

(cont)
Back in the day we had two buildings that crossed five floors.
Nothing more guarded than the top secret FPL Tower doors.
Complex pricing algorithms. Calculations that were WILD.
No changes, no exceptions, unless of course, Mark Sutherns dialled (@FFScout_Mark).

(cont)
Back then, FPL was played by only a few.
Players were raw and played with instinct, had no refined view.
Sat next to the ‘man in the stands’ who handed out bonus points back then.
Was Mark who thought I’ll just build a website instead of scribbles with a pen.

Why touchmaps are not always a good indicator of the game and should be used carefully (especially for strikers).

What this shows is the defensive work he did but in possession and when in attack, Kane was very much occupying the spaces a CF would. Obviously the (cont)
final ball was missing against Everton but Conte is a good coach and my main take away was he was asked to be in the box every time an attack was there. All I want to know from Kane. Also, conte will appreciate the defensive work which is why he didn't get hooked and (cont)
Son did as mentioned by @BakerFPL343 on his pod. Still early days but just be careful with how you use touch maps. Coaching and good players in (Lo Celso and Ndombele) will make Spurs more finessed.

Just want to chat some Marcus Rashford (thread)

Firstly he's crossed 20 returns in his last two seasons (wasn't on pens last season) and that was playing with an injury. It was visible how injured he was because every United fan will tell you there was a stark difference..(cont)
..in his performance once the niggles started coming. He was close to being top 5 player in the league before that. I said on the pod 2 weeks ago that if he's put the injuries behind him, he's going to play a big role in FPL. He's looked really good so far, getting sharper (cont)
..every game. Showing good finishing as well. Enough random waffle. Tactically want to talk about a few things. Ronaldo doesn't have the same pace anymore. I've noticed he's dropping deep a lot. Which means Rashy is making multiple runs behind the defence. He's pretty much (cont)

*The Fuck Rank Protection Thread*

Hello. Welcome to the thread. There's a lot of conversation around "protecting rank" especially for those that are highly ranked. If that is for you, fair enough, but I insist you read on and i'm hoping to talk to your inner rebel (cont)
In my opinion, every year that we continue playing this game, it gets more and more difficult to reach the upper echelons. My school of thought whenever I've entered the top 10k with a few Gameweeks to go has always been - "Fuck. I am not getting this chance in FPL again". (cont)
You lot were with me on the ride last season. I was 1k with 8 Gameweeks to go. The same thought came to me again. I wasn't going to get this opportunity ever again. I didn't say, fuck, rank protection yada yada (not wrong but i'm trying to inspire here so bear with me) (cont)

Just trying to think off the top of my head of the errors I've made this season and want to just document them somewhere.. First up was going without Salah in Gameweek 1. It was Salah against a newly promoted team when everyone was going to cap him. Too big a risk early..(cont)
...doors. What sucked me in was a draft I made without Mo and that enabled me to get 2 more 8.5-9M ish players with a high perceived upside. Both of them were gambles (Kai + Dele) and the wish to start off on fire was bait I took and fell into a trap. Speaking of which that(cont)
is definitely a big error. There was too much trust in unproven assets early doors and need to take a leaf out of @FPL_Salah's book and turn down the volume with regards to unproven assets and unnecessary risks early doors. Also i'll admit that when the template is so..(cont)

[THREAD]

Just a ramble of thoughts that I have with the upcoming DGW. I'll keep it brief and to the point.

1) Antonio. He's still building fitness and the games are two days apart. Fixtures are good yes but know that its a punt. I agree that the options in that price...
...are limited but wanted to re-iterate that the games are two days apart.

2) High upside punts outside of the usual suspects? Mane, Timo, Vardy and Sterling. When it comes to Liverpool and Chelsea, I think the impact of the longer break is going to make a difference. Lamps..
..mentioned how important it was to get some time on the training pitch in his presser. Remember that when Chelsea had the full backs and Ziyech fit, they were a different beast. Fixtures after 19 nice too. Vardy faces Leeds in two games after the Double and you know..
