Given only elite sport can continue during lockdown, are we expecting Sheff Utd v Newcastle to be postponed?

The FPL game is so unrealistic. As if Danny Ings would score every game in real life.

When Son's on form, Son gets points. When Kane's on form, Kane and Son get points.

🤔 FPL managers, would you rather... 🏆 A - Win FPL once, but never finish inside the top 10k again. or 🔝 B - Never win FPL, but finish inside the top 10k every season.

Don't like a -4 after a WC but Antonio for Bamford had to happen and Sarr's fixtures mean I think he's worth a 2 week punt over Torres. 5/5 captain returns this season.

Was meant to be on the FPL show tonight. After nearly 4 hours on a train and 1 hour in a taxi I get there and have come down with a really bad cold. I was given some stuff and fell asleep on a couch. When I woke up @FPLGeneral was discussing Burnley.

If you constructed your wildcard team for one week, you did it wrong. If you created it as a platform for the next few gameweeks, judge it in a few gameweeks.

Wildcarded last night. Rather than waiting until GW7 to get the team I want, I thought I'd just get it now. Thinking Spurs isn't a 4 FDR fixture for Chelsea so no need to wait for them any longer.

Everyone's looking at City v Norwich in GW2 forgetting Chelsea play Palace in GW1. Palace have lost a few players and there's talk of them transitioning to a more attacking team. Remember when De Boer tried that.

I've crunched some numbers for GW9 and after extensive analysis can confirm 45 points is what the optimum skill level got you. The skill level decreases gradually to 66 points. 67+ points is all luck. Over 100 points and you're rubbish.

Everton low-down: The front 4 are all playing well. Rich and Theo are the only ones to return but I think they'll even out over the next few weeks. Points are coming for Tosun and Sig but the latters price makes him the least appealing of the 4. Avoid defence until CB pair form.

Probably no need to take a hit with Livra on the bench but Grealish & Lukaku to Havertz & Vardy Could afford Son and want Son but going Havertz's fixtures over Son's form, ability, explosiveness & FPL greatness.

Antonio to Watkins, other transfer rolled. Kane's last chance. Although after captaining him the last two weeks, hauling now after I've taken the armand off him might annoy me in to selling anyway. Ronaldo's just a better option.
