Summary
This weekend's GW2 action saw banter-level fantasy blanks for key players like Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford, and Nicolas Jackson while other pre-season darlings like Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbeumo continued to score points—not to mention the "we knew they had it in them" guys like Luis Diaz and Solly March who have started this new season in incredible form. How do we manage to overlook the potential of some options while convincing ourselves to stay the course with others? This week, we discuss the plan for GW3 and if (or for how long) we can continue to ignore the high-flying player we don't yet have in our FPL squads. Hail Cheaters!

| 0:00.0 | Hey, all cheaters. Welcome to the always cheating podcast. My name is Josh. I'm here with Brandon. Brandon, how are you? Josh, that was a banter weekend, as some people would call it. |
| 0:27.8 | Yeah, yeah. Certainly from a fantasy perspective, there were some highs and lows, but the matches as well, just some really dodgy performances from some tough teams. |
| 0:41.7 | FPL-wise, it was a tricky one, right? It was a great weekend for X, G, and XA |
| 0:47.2 | underachievers, right? A lot of people looked good and did not actually give you anything |
| 0:53.2 | fantasy-wise. I think I'm on 39 points right now, which is above average. And I actually, because I was like, oh, like, am I, like, even on a green arrow. And I actually am, but, you know, I started at 3.6 million or something going into this game. So I'm up like 800,000 places. So I feel, I feel pretty good about that. And if he plays, I have Gabriel |
| 1:13.1 | Centerback, Arsenal Centerback Gabriel tomorrow. You can't just say Gabriel, right? Because |
| 1:18.0 | it's like a, there's three Gabriel's Gabrielle's on Arsenal. Yeah, Gabriel, Martinelli, Jesus. |
| 1:22.5 | Call him G1, G2, G3, maybe. Yeah. I guess I struggle to pronounce his last name, and so I don't try. |

| 1:46.3 | Like Pliny, the elder, whatever, you know, yeah, exactly. |

| 1:54.8 | Those are the players who've got in the Arsenal game. |
| 1:56.5 | Okay. |
| 1:56.8 | So it was a mixed bag. |
| 2:00.0 | I think, stupid on Brighton, basically. Brighton were my performers this week. I got, I think it was 12 from Matoma, I think roughly the same. I don't have my actual team. Let me pull my team up here. 11 from a stupon. Yeah, 11 from a stupon. Yeah, 11 from a stupon, 12 from a Toma. And so that felt good. |
| 2:19.1 | I mean, I also have Bruno and Rashford, and I got three combined points from those two. |
