@piersmorgan 1. He wasn’t “killed”; he died in an accident 2. The club could’ve approached the PL & asked for dispensation for this premeditated stunt - they didn’t 3. Who the fuck are you to take any kind of moral high ground given your track record over the years?

***FIXTURE REARRANGEMENT ANNOUNCEMENT*** All of the postponed fixtures will now take place in an additional fortnight added to the end of the season. This decision has been taken to give @BenCrellin an emotional breakdown after countless hours thinking he could outsmart us.

Some FPL pearls of wisdom for each team. 🧵 • ARS - Odegaard quietly flying just above the radar at just under 15% TSB • AVL - Avoid, Avoid, Avoid. Gerrard already on borrowed time • BOU - Target them with players facing them, not by buying them!! Awful

157 Pts with 7 to play inc Triple Captain KDB. This Bench Boost is really paying off with 48 pts from them. So glad I set my team up like this with my Free Hit. This was absolutely the right week to play my second Wildcard. - FPL Twitter

I paid £10.5m for Fernandes. If I sell him I get £11m. If I want to buy him back for GW30 he’d cost me £11.6m (although I reckon he may get a couple of price drops between now and then). He’s also owned by an insane amount of managers. No, he’s going nowhere.
