Hi everyone and welcome back to this week's Off the Bench podcast. I'm Sam from FPL family.

0:21.5

And I'm Andy,

0:29.7

FPL Sonaldo. Wow, Andy. Game Week 11. My goodness. Harlan going off at half time for a one pointer, blanks for Saka, Sala, Madison's son, Watkins and Alvarez. Meanwhile, Marcus Rashford,

0:37.1

who's still owned by over 13% of managers,

0:39.9

misses out altogether. It was just one of those weeks for FPL managers. The average this

0:45.2

week just 32. That's 12 less than it's been at any other point so far this season.

0:51.2

For me, this was definitely a week of what could have been. Andy, how was Game Week 11 for you?

1:28.5

So one to forget, but I don't think one to dwell on too much.

1:32.2

How about yourself, Sam?

1:33.8

Yeah, for me, it was a week where I was saved by two players.

1:37.9

So Mark Gahey's clean sheet coming in very handy.

1:40.4

And then Jared Bowen, with his return, I think I had 25. It was a red arrow, but actually,

1:47.3

I thought, just before we came on here, I was like, okay, I've got a, I've got a man up now and
