MuΓ±oz didn't join my suspended duo but is an ever so slight injury doubt so Free Hit could still be on the cards, yay!

Without much thought, these are the players that will definitely make it:

- Saka & 2 other ARS (vs WOL)
- Thiago & Dango (vs LEE)

All other positions up for grabs.

Slough Town 1-3 Macclesfield: Silkmen progress in FA Cup Macclesfield beat Slough Town to progress to the third round of the FA Cup for the first time.

We are into the 3rd round of the FA Cup - exciting!

Good memories of 3rd rounds a long while ago, particularly seeing Shevchenko/Lampard etc in a 6-1 loss at the Bridge. Our GK got sent off (Shev simulation) and we didn't have a sub, so captain CB went in net :)

So far 2 of my players are suspended for GW16: Calafiori & Schade. It could be 3 if MuΓ±oz joins them tomorrow.

Plan 1: play free hit & ignore losing value on Semenyo/Mbeumo etc.

Plan 2: transfer out Calafiori -> Timber, Schade -> Neto (or similar) & bench MuΓ±oz for Alderete

Thoughts?

Football things that irk me:

1. When a player does something good (but not great) and then proceeds to madly wave their arms to gee up the crowd.

I always feel like saying: "If you'd actually scored instead of missing the target, you would have earned my applause. Do your job and I'll do mine."

My #FPL team's solitary Saturday return comes from new addition Bruno number 1.

And oddly Haaland outscoring Salah by 2 points still counts as a win, right?!

Are this Arsenal side ever going to win the league?

2 losses vs LIV & AVL
3 draws vs CHE, MCI & SUN

Doesn't look/sound too bad on paper, and yes they are still top of the league. But it's not even Christmas and I just can't shake the feeling that they've already messed it up.

Tempting...BOU haven't looked great recently...but Foden on fire...on balance I wouldn't take a hit for it this week.

Perhaps people mean "there was a reason I made Decision A. The outcome was bad but there WAS a reason, so that's ok."

When peeps say "good decision, bad outcome" what do they mean exactly?

Person A: "Haaland got an xG of 1.54 vs NEW so it was a "good" decision to captain him."

Me: "Err....no it wasn't. He got 2 points."

Surely any assignment of "good/bad" should ONLY be measured by the outcome.

Thoughts?

It's been a disaster but I've had fun! Just need a Mbeumo hattrick and Bruno hattrick of assists and all will be forgiven.

Haaland & Bruno G are in the team!

Don't normally like early transfers but price rises looming tonight and I'm 99% sure that these are the 2 I want.

My 3rd roll of the dice for a super sub. Thiago & Welbeck failed. But will Mo do the business?

In other news, I'm likely to reverse my transfers for GW15 and do:

Mateta -> Haaland
Salah -> Bruno G (or similar)

Will it be a 1 pointer, or will he be a super sub? C'mon Danny boy!

If Bruno is benched tomorrow, that's 3/3 of my transfers in!

I have owned 3 players all season: Semenyo, MuΓ±oz and Mateta.

Perhaps it's time to bid a fond farewell to Antoine & JP.

Thanks for the points chaps.
