Summary

On the eve of another international break, we review the first eleven gameweeks of this FPL season through the lens of each week's dream team. That's right—it's time for the Kings of the Gameweek. What lessons can we learn and what patterns can we discern from the teams, players, and positions that appear in the FPL site's often overlooked feature? We also discuss the ongoing points draught for fantasy forwards, the continued excellence of fantasy defenders, and an urge to try new fantasy formations. Hail Cheaters!

Hey, Lacheters, welcome to the always cheating podcast. My name is Josh. I'm here with Brandon.

0:20.3

Brandon, how are you?

0:22.4

Okay. I don't know if I know how to feel anymore, Josh. You know, we've been playing fantasy for more than a decade now. And there are those weeks where you just really don't know whether I'm feeling fantastic, whether I'm feeling okay, or whether much like our friend and I think you should leave, I just don't want to be around anymore. Well, I can tell you were doing okay because sometimes, you know, when you're really, it goes to show that just how much better this year is that even when you're having kind of a rough week, your mood is still better. Whereas I feel like last year,

0:54.8

if it was a bad week and it was like already kind of a bummer to watch games with no fans in the stands, it was like a bad week and it was like, Brennan might just quit everything right now, you know? And it feels so it feels like, it feels the energy is a lot different now that it was before. I know. I felt it because, you know, you and I had did this,

0:52.2

I had done a Patreon pot on Thursday.

0:53.8

And I think, I felt it because, you know, you and I had did this,

1:10.3

I had done a Patreon pot on Thursday. And I think, I think I was giving you good advice, but I think you, you couldn't hear me because we recorded that late on Thursday. I had fallen asleep, trying to put my kid to bed. This is a thing that many parents know about, which is that when you try often when I'm trying to put my kid to bed, I'll end up laying in bed next to them. And because,

1:30.7

uh, you know, it's like exhausting to get your kids to bed, I haven't just fall asleep in the bed. And so I, so I'd woke it up from that. And, uh, I went into recorder pod and you said it was like talking to a zombie on that podcast.

1:25.4

I was a little out of it.

1:26.6

I was just sort of like,

1:28.1

no one should make a transfer this week.

1:30.0

Like,

1:30.2

don't know. And you said it was like talking to a zombie on that podcast. I was a little out of it. And so I was just sort of like, no one should make a transfer this week.

1:47.5

Like that's number of points.

1:49.2

We basically denied the existence of FPL.

1:52.7

And I think hindsight being what it is, that was probably the best move this weekend.

1:57.9

Like everyone just take your hands off your keyboards.

2:02.7

Let the FPL gods do what they want yeah so i think it's going to be an interesting game week 11 to

2:08.8

to quickly review here before we um start looking forward because i don't i really don't know how to

2:16.9

describe how odd the game week was because

2:20.0

none of the heavy hitters came through, as predicted, we both started five at the back
