@LetsTalk_FPL This would've been in the works for a while. I suspect Liverpool have passed on Alonso, rather than missed him.
Whether that's the correct decision remains to be seen.
@LetsTalk_FPL Either way, you've had a great season. I was a bit surprised you (C) Gyokeres, but hindsight is 20/20 vision. He still might get half an hour off the bench and get a return.
@FplToni I'm a Liverpool fan and the notion of bringing Salah in is pretty mental to me. Fair enough if you've got transfers to burn, but there's still better moves you can make imo.
It appears that a Polymarket account called "Magamyman" made $515,000 in a single day betting on last night's U.S. strike on Iran, with the first trade placed 71 minutes before the news broke publicly.
When this person bought in, the market had this at a 17% probability. They turned roughly $87,000 into over half a million dollars overnight.
Reminder that Donald Trump Jr. sits on Polymarket's advisory board and his firm invested double-digit millions into the platform last year. The DOJ and CFTC both had active investigations into Polymarket that were dropped after Trump took office.
Prediction markets cannot be a vehicle for profiting off advance knowledge of military action.
We need answers, transparency, and oversight.
@LetsTalk_FPL I was watching the deadline stream and there's absolutely NO chance that any of this was premeditated.
You would've VC Bruno anyway, so you've gained no advantage whatsoever.
Situations like this bring out of the worst in people. Keep doing what you're doing, Andy.
