Last season I finished 21st in @officialfpl, qualified for @Greyhead19's Great and the Good and won a rather large 🏆 for finishing top of Fantasy 606's mini-league.

Here's a few things I learnt along the way.

🧵.....

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@DafPritchard Go full L’Equipe

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@FplMode Milenkovic to play though. Every cloud...

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

All about home advantage this week. Lewis might not start but only other option was Konsa. Rolling into the ITB we go. #FPLCommunity

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@dis_fpl Get yourself over to Bluesky. The FPL community over there is pretty embryonic, but it is at least sensible.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@lateriser12 @SkontoRigga Odegaard should be back to somewhere near full fitness at the same time too.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@Pras_fpl @lateriser12 And even it's only a short hop over to Belgium, it's the disruption to routine for players. Under-rated factor imho.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@Greyhead19 Might not know before the FPL deadline.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@FPLOneManTeam It's more fun than Raya though. Proper rollercoaster.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@fpl_tactician I'm in the 11 or 12 points category personally. Nailed on.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@rhodrillwyd Fanna fydd o wsos nesa fyd!

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

Watching football games to see how many saves a keeper makes is what the beautiful game is all about #FPL

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@LetsTalk_FPL Hoping he can do a Bruno Guimares in that case 🤞

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@FPL_TomHadley I don't think you can go wrong with talismanic assets. Not that many around sadly.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

Never like taking hits in #FPL but...

IN: Salah (c) + Cunha = 24 (-4)

OUT: Haaland (c) + Eze = 4

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@FPLGeneral This is how it should be. Hard decisions all the way!

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@BenCrellin2 I watched The Shining when I was about 12 (bad idea in hindsight) and some of its scenes I can remember vividly over 30 years later. Brilliant cinematography.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@Greyhead19 That doesn't look like the leisure centre car park where I made my Saka ➡️ Son transfer.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@FPLRobbed This was my first thought as I benched him in the bus team 🙈

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@fplblackbox_az @fpl_flair Isn't it more likely that someone more senior has come in on the Monday, stuck a Teams meeting in the diary, and reversed the weekend decision. Standard, fairly dull, Monday workplace behaviour.

[Geraint Owen @geraintwn]

@LetsTalk_FPL I think the key to it all is the 2nd paragraph here in @OfficialFPL 's own rules on assists. No conspiracy as far as I can see, just applying the rules (full disclosure: I am a Son owner since 8.45am on Saturday)
