Stuck a couple of your players in FPL after yesterday. Wildcard innit.
Think you’ll do alright with them. We’ve a good run of fixtures. Burnley and Brentford next two games. I’ve already got our keeper and Xhaka. Might add a 3rd.

You have used your wildcard already?

Gotta feeling I should have used my bench boost. Could miss out on some decent points by the looks of it. I’ll keep my wildcard for another few weeks until all the teams have settled and the transfer window closes.

I've done this daft theory where debut players always score or assist in their first game and so far I'm right in general but getting the right ones is the trick Reijnders was in my thinking but didn't go for it. Pedro blanking at the moment.

Yeah that Reijnders looks a bit special. He could score a lot of points.

I’ve also picked Pedro. He’ll be gone soon if this performance is anything to go by.
 
We’ll see. Everyone has a price. If he really does turn out to be all that he’s not going to be happy playing in the championship when premier league teams come calling.

The whole point in doing what we are now doing is not being held hostage to PSR / FFP ... we had 3 top 5 finishes within 5 years before we were hamstrung by the footballing authotities ... won't get fooled again ...

You need to look at your own, given the amount of money you've spent ..

We got promoted all the way to the premier league without spending any money and selling the likes of Clarke and Stewart along the way. We also sold Bellingham and Watson for about 45m before we even started spending. It’s give us so much room for PSR. The players we’ve signed now will go for more money in the next year or two.

Totally different circumstances to you spending heavily in the championship to get promoted.

You weren’t fooled just badly managed by the looks of it.

I'll take badly managed with a Premier League title and an FA Cup in the 10 years from bring promoted ... do you think you'll equal that? ;)
