Welcome back to this week's off the bench podcast. I'm Sam from FPL family.

And I'm as from FPL Blackbox And I'm As from FBL Blackbox.

As what a game week it has been. Again, I feel like every week we could start podcast by going,

what a game week it has been. But this week, what a game week. Many managers went into the week

with multiple flags on players. I know for me, I had flags on Madison, on Saka,

on Slebeer, on Botman. In the end, Botman misses out. And for me, that was a total disaster.

Because who comes off my bench? But Purvis is Dupinyan with his minus two points.

Honestly, that hurts so much. You wild carded, heading into game week seven how was it i did and

it went well i can finally say after a pretty miserable season so far uh i finally got a

a decision right the wild card's finally because you hold it off and hold it off and just hope that

when you do play it you you end up with more points than you kind of originally had. And I can say I'm 12 points better off with the mighty Cabore to play Burnley tonight. So looking forward to watching that. Oh, interesting. You didn't go for Morris in the end then on World Card. I didn't go for Morris. No, I wanted him, but it was, he's a problem from this week.

He's a very good pick this week. And if you had to be captained him, you must be absolutely laughing.

Because with Harlem blanking, it was a great decision. But I haven't got much value in my team.

It would be a transfer out, you know, next week. So I'm playing the, with the wild kind, I think you've got to play the longer game a little bit. Yeah. Now, for me this week was, well, I mean, I've got Morris and I've got

Cabore still to come. So it's not yet a disaster. But I first bench GRB. And as soon as that game

kicked off between Aston Vetter and Brighton, which we'll talk about in more detail in a bit, I was like, I have made a horrendous mistake here.

But I looked across my front eight and was like, with Morris in there, I have to play him across the double.

And I just, there wasn't anyone else I could bench.

And that 90 minutes where Aston Villa were writing, I watched thinking my game week is going quickly into the mud.

And I need some people to kind of step up and save

it. Now, I did have a couple of good assets that did that. However, there were a lot of assets

that just let me down, which is why as I hit my wildcard button on Saturday. Oh, the reveal.
