I don't speak much here, but Andy was the first FPL content creator I followed on social media. It was during Covid season where I started taking FPL more seriously. Ever since, I have watched 90% of his videos and stream, and he is one of the big reasons I love FPL.

[Andy @LetsTalk_FPL]

The reaction to this Haaland stuff is absolute insanity at this point.

The sheer volume of comments, tweets, abuse, insults etc when I had zero info. It’s utter madness.

“He had his captain on Haaland all week”.

I didn’t!

It was literally on Bruno at one or two points during the stream and on earlier videos in the week. It was a super close call! Just because you don’t think it was, doesn’t mean it wasn’t.

It’s the reason I wasn’t bothered by refreshing and being on Bruno, I liked both picks 🤷‍♂️

Just because being top 1k would change how people approach the game, doesn’t mean it does for me. The idea that someone wouldn’t captain Bruno if top 1k is just stupid.

I’m human, just because I do this for a living doesn’t mean I’m always calm with my decisions, sometimes it’s last minute, it’s not acting, it’s just who I am. There are plenty of deadlines streams where I know exactly what I’m doing and I’m chill. Why don’t I also just “act” otherwise for views then? Because that’s not what I do.

I’ve had so much shite thrown at me, it’s ruined my weekend, and the sad thing is, it’s all for nothing. People are angry for made up stuff in their head - I had no more info than anyone else. And now I’ll have to listen to it for a while despite doing nothing wrong.

People just making stuff up -“well you must have known he was a doubt” etc.

No truth in it whatsoever.

The first I ever saw of it was from a tweet AFTER the deadline and I assumed it was something of nothing, until Saturday afternoon when the rumours started, at which point it was too late to do anything about it anyway.

I’ve been offered info from a big Chelsea account before for money, I declined it without even asking how much. A Man United account asked if I wanted info recently, I said no.

My Twitter DMs are completely shut off now unless I follow you, I barely check Instagram messages. I’m in zero FPL group chats.

I actively try and avoid info like this, especially as my audience has grown, unless it’s public like the recent Haaland and Foden benchings.

Not sure what more I can do.

I’m just taking a lot of heat for no reason, I’ve gained zero advantage from this whole thing. People just want someone to blame, and it looks like it’s me, despite having no prior knowledge of this whole thing.

It’s just sad.

And yeah, it comes with the territory, it doesn’t mean it’s any more fun to have to read.

Keep going @LetsTalk_FPL . FPL won't be the same or even as big if it wasn't for you.

For me, Andy is the most relatable content creater. He is honest and always admits it when he makes mistakes. I have no doubt that the whole situation is genuine. He has done it many times before - leaving captaincy decision till the last minute.

tears man he literally talks like his low IQ fanbase

[Alex Vollo @AlexVolloFPL]

Everyone's on about Tarkowski vs West Ham this week because they've conceded from corners in every single GW so far.

But here's the catch: Everton's corner routine is basically identical to the one West Ham keep collapsing against, near-post screens to block runs and overload, before isolating a man at the far post. But the funny thing is Tarkowski isn't the end target of that routine. He's the screener.

The players actually on the end of those passes and shots so far are O'Brien and Keane, both leading Everton for attempts from these exact situations.

So yes, West Ham are vulnerable and a goal from a corner feels written in the stars. But if you’re advising Tarkowski purely because of "every week they concede from corners", that's a bit of lazy research, the numbers and eye-test suggest it's O'Brien or Keane who are the real threats.

I have lost a few subscribers over this.

Many have advised that I stay neutral as it’s “better for business”. But honestly, I don’t think I would be able to sleep at night.

I’m very fortunate to have this platform, and grateful for the opportunity to spread a positive message.

Btw Real Madrid staff not attending the ceremony because they lost should tell you how classless and egotistical club that they are. Everything that is wrong with football

I wish Barcelona every success.

Enjoyable team.

@fpl_greenarrows I did end up with Porro, but it was a very close call

[Cule @FPL_Cule]

Late FPL decision, would you start Porro or Lewis?
