Yes I can hold my hands up and say so far I have him wrong, Mbuemo is doing well so far this season.

Don't know whether him and his lard @rse can keep up though.

And there's me after all that being his biggest fan didn't fancy him against Everton or City took him outCryGrin

And yet, City would be ideal for him with counter attack, my usual early season 150 points behind will be reached very soon.Crazy

There are reliable sources, the one last season that leaked that Haaland wasn't playing late in the season was a good example that caught a few out who started him..

Somebody suggesting they have been looking for the leak, and yesterday may have nailed it.

Take care until it's all confirmed.
Report mesmerised • September 6, 2026 10:11 PM BST
Think Andy from LetsTalkFpl said last season that he doesn't really get given any leaks anymore since FPL moved the deadline further back, the one he gave last season relayed from twitter, didn't make much difference iirc, it was City team news, took the key players but was it Marmoush that started and was cack. Though it could have been a massive edge if it had worked out. That was the only real leak of notice I remember last season.

Haaland has mentioned fpl himself a few times, no doubt he feeds his Norwegian posse back home some team info, English football in Norway is massive.

this is one of the things that is wrong about the game, price changes forced people to make transfers early, then later in the week injuries strike and team news starts to come out at press conferences etc. Prices changes should happen after the deadline to take place the following week like other fantasy games do.

potential bonus points.

I captained Thiago, -2 for booking for taking shirt off.

Frustrating game.

Fernandes is on pens, free kicks, plays 90 mins every week, never gets injured, scores from open play, he is a must, Mbuemo may do better than last season, but he will still be miles behind Bruno's output come May, or come what May. Kind Regards.

He’s not renowned for scoring from free kicks.

I fully expect him to outscore Mbuemo over the season, but at the prices he needs to score 50% more points than him.
