    Rico move paid off, Callum Wilson doing very well fpl extra points every week so far, I missed than one

    I had him at the start but transferred him out for Pukki in gameweek 3. But he's kept getting points since then. That being said, he didn't do much before getting that late goal last night. Abraham is on my watchlist too.
    Bonus points have bailed me out got 49 points with four players left so Sterling and bad Captain choice not hurting as much as first thought, I should maintain my 58 point average which at this stage is decent

    Love it when that happens. Just shows that there's more than one way to get a decent gameweek score.

    There are rumours that Greenwood has been dropped from the Squad for West Ham which is madness if true...

    That would mean Rashford is our only Striker, hopefully this is false for more than one reason

    Took a hit to make three transfers (mini wildcard) to improve my team, maybe jumping the gun as still games to play including midweek cup matches though cant hold off in case of price rise.

    I might be down to one sub (Dendoncker) if that's true!

    I hate it when price rises forces early transfers. I've missed out on several players already because of price changes.

    Hopefully Greenwood was not seen and did travel, though looks unlikely. Apparently Mount could be fit.

    I had to get Abraham and Son in for Vardy and Mount, the hit was Van Dyk to free up some money to allow those deals.

    Watching Man City highlights, De Bruyne must be the best player in the world currently. He stays in my FPL team all season barring injury

    Seems like decent moves that! Really want Son too, but I'm 0.1-0.5 short no matter what moves I make…

    He's really been impressive this season (as he's always been when fit). You really see the difference with a City including De Bruyne in the starting eleven, and one without.

    It pains me to say that if De Bruyne stays fit he will be the difference and City will likely win the CL.

    Decided to hang onto Sterling he will get points over the course of the season, happy with my midfield Cantwell, Sterling, Salah, De Bruyne, Son. going forward I can always bring in Mane if needed

    That's an impressive midfield! Missed the price rises of Cantwell myself, so I can't get that midfield even if I want to. I'm relying on a cheaper midfielder becoming as good an option as Son/Cantwell.

    My Strikers are none Premium Pukki, Greenwood and Abraham, though Chelsea really have some great fixtures after today Abraham could rack up some points

    Same here re. non-premium strikers, although I have Wilson instead of Abraham. Won't be surprised if I make the transfer of Wilson > Abraham eventually.

    Watching United v West Ham game shortly, are you able to get the Arsenal game in Norway

    No, they're showing the Chelsea-Liverpool game instead. I think TV2 deliberately (at least most of the time) choose their games based on how big a fanbase the teams have, which unfortunately sees many interesting matches not aired live.

    Arsenal-Villa isn't a particularly interesting match though.

    Confirmed no Greenwood in the match day squad

    Sky have United v West Ham then Chelsea v Liverpool a good afternoon of football. Though Ole has picked a slow side we will lose

    Really need Mount to play now!

    West Ham are all over the place, so I can see United winning this game. Harder to predict the Liverpool-Chelsea game, I think!

    If Mount does not start I have Kelly as a last resort though not sure he will return for Palace as Kelly has been out injured and I think other Palace defenders have returned

    I think there will be goals at Stampford bridge my prediction is 4 - 1 to Liverpool though I need a clean sheet with double Liverpool defence

    Haven't followed the Palace lineups closely, but Kelly did play the first gameweeks, did't he?

    There will be goals in the Liverpool-Chelsea game, that's for sure. And I do think it will be goals for both teams. Liverpool most likely the winner.

    Just checked Kelly on the bench, if Mason Mount misses the game it could be a 10 player week for me gr

    It looks like some FPL teams have been hacked (targeted most likely). Worth keeping an eye on:

    So people are hacking teams and deleting them a bit daft, maybe an idea randomly change difficult passwords

    Annoying when that happens. Bad luck too, as you'd think Greenwood would have been in the squad/maybe even played if not for the tonsillitis.

    I agree I was expecting to see Greenwood start, just changed my password on FPL as I was using the same password as last year, just in case that's how the hackers have got hold of information

    From what I've seen so far, it's FPL manager's that are well-known in the FPL community that's been targeted. Maybe others, but haven't read anything about that.

    Changed my password as well, just in case.

    Twats ruining other peoples fun, there must be a backup for the players teams though then again we are talking almost 7 million FPL Managers

    If there's a small number of managers affected (as FPL themselves seem to suggest), I'm sure they're able to restore the teams somehow – much like an in-game bug or something like that. Will be interesting to see what happens; one of those affected runs a stream I use to watch, so he'll surely provide updates.
