In the latest edition of the United Hour Podcast, we interview Duncan Drasdo of MUST - covering ticket prices, new stadium, INEOS and what fans should be demanding from our club.
Also, due to technical issues we couldn't put a notice up for the previous episode which was about the game against Bournemouth and other stuff. If you'd like to listen to it, click here.
Yes, who did you have?
Haaland (c), Bruno (v)
Nice!
I had the same two but in reverse. All ends up the same, 26 points from Bruno incoming.
I’m on 77 week with two players to play next
How the feck has Mazraoui got a bonus point?
Clean sheet mostly, albeit an unusual one coming on when he did. They usually register highly in bonus, and he was the only player on the pitch who got one.
Looking at the rules now:
Clean sheet = 12
Playing 60+ = 6
90%+ pass completion (minimum 30 passes) = 6. He had 93% from 45
That's 24 for a start + whatever other bits and pieces. Those clean sheets + passes can really score well, remember last season where City would dominate a game, keep a cleanie and the backline would pass it amongst themselves to get massive pass completion. Always likely that Ruben Dias or Gvardiol would sneak into bonus even if they did barely any defending in terms of tackles and whatnot.
Hmmmm, never gone into that detail. Stupid but thanks for explanation.
Feels harsh on players like Casemiro (14 defcon) or actual assists tbh.
No worries, and I tend to agree.
To cut FPL Towers some slack, suppose it's hard when everything is based on stats. Going to get some anomalies or odd situations that don't always feel right. They're always tinkering with BPS from year to year too seemingly.
It would be nicer if Haaland played and blanked.
NOW Gabriel returns. Where were you in DW you fecker?
Saliba!
True enough, I was being nice to the guy rather than begrudge my luck!
Bit of a fortunate one for those who capped Haaland and vice capped someone who hauled. Who knows though, maybe Haaland would have bagged a hat-trick if he did play.
Imagine there will be some who not only stumbled onto vice captain Bruno but also bagged something good off the bench with Haaland not playing. They're the true lucky feckers.
It will be interesting who to see who people have first on the bench in general. I have Pedro and i expect nothing.True enough, I was being nice to the guy rather than begrudge my luck!

Also, bringing Mbeumo in didn't pay off for me. And without WC available i am stuck with him.
Switched VC from Bruno to Ekitike then to Thiago all at the last few minutes.
But can't complain too much, a goal is still a goal.

I am so happy that this is last game where i have double Arsenal defence. No point anymore in that.
I hate just watching my lead be slowly chipped away over the Sunday games! I wish Haaland had played and there weren’t so many Bruno jammers! Leeds looked pretty resilient.
So is City going to be the only DGW left? Just wondering about chip strategy. I’m thinking TC for Haaland, then free hit for the game them and Arsenal don’t play in. The use my Wild Card soon as I’m bleeding points.
They both have blank in 31 so it is obvious choice for free hit. Tc.....well, Haaland is obvious chouce in DGW.
Aaa okay so I’m safe to use my wildcard? Because I’m doing very bad right now.
No need to wait. Wc for next two rounds, then goes FH and then you have 7 rounds left to use TC.
Bruno captaincy working like a charm! Wish we had t conceded
How does defcon actually work? I see Mainoo has got 10 DC but no 2 points for it?
Think its 12 for midfielders
Okay thank you!
Timber!! In his last game in my team.
Maybe i didn't need to sell him after all.

70 all out, a little 2 point green arrow.
Pleased that Timber and Gabriel bailed me out with attacking returns while conceding. Even the point for 3+ saves from Raya is a little plus after the cleanie went. 20 points between the 3 of them.

Thought there will be some created by the FA Cup semi final weekend too in GW34.
It depends though on who exactly makes it. If they're not in European quarter finals the teams whose games are called off for the FA Cup can be moved to midweek in 34.
If they're in Europe then I think they can be moved to 33 or 36 for doubles.

We could do with a spreadsheet?
Anyone on here good with spreadsheets… ideally in colour?
Should be a very interesting midweek anyway with Haaland, O’Reilly, Wilson, Anderson and now Rice all potentially flagged ahead of games. It could turn into a bit of a massacre with players getting rested on top.
82 points overall. This was a solid day with Bruno, Wilson and double Arsenal.
I must find a gk who can keep CS though.

After GW29…. it’s the big one!
The Redcafe FPL cup competition!
Draw is after GW29 and byes given to some teams (as we have less than 512 in the league) depending on GW29 scores.
“For those about to die… we salute you!”

Nothing on Anderson here on mine? What’s the deal with him?
Illness if you mean Andersen.
First century of the season for me. Wondering if Sesko is a better pick than Mbeumo now?
Well, he wrote Anderson, but probably meant Andersen I guess?
Made up for you.
Timber is a FPL troll.
I brought him in in GW7 and started off with a assist.
Between GW8 and when i got rid in GW27 he got 2 assists.
Now he has a goal and a assist in the 2 games since.

Look to be finishing on 75 which isn't too shabby but would have been better off keeping Captain on Haaland and VC on Bruno. The gamble of Captain Sesko did not pay off.
Do we reckon Haaland is out for the midweek game too?
I've just noticed he blanks in 31 as wll so might be worth swapping him out now. I'm considering Ekitike or Thiago.
