A full midweek has been and gone. We review Arsenal and a disappointing Gabrielle Triple

Captain for all of us so far. We debate whether it's too late to go for Juel Pedro and for once,

yes, you heard this right, I made a decent transfer. Well, firstly, apologies for any confusion.

This is an FPL pod dropping with you on Friday, but it was all part of the master plan.

It wasn't the fact that Jules had too many things on the Thursday and couldn't fit us in.

It was the fact that we realised after we recorded our last episode that it was probably a bit silly to come to you on Thursday because the main talking point was Arsenal.

And of course, they didn't play until Thursday night.

So we're recording at the crack of dawn on Friday morning, still reeling, I think, from the fact

that we all played a chip and we're all probably wondering why after Arsenal's final

tour against Brent. But we'll come on to that very shortly. How are you all feeling about the game

week so far, Sam? Are you as unenthusiastic as me?

No, I don't think so. It's enough a little green arrow. So we take that. That feels okay. And, you know, look, there's always, in my view anyway, because we've still got another game week, another game to play in the game week. We've got another opportunity for it to be a greener arrow. So I feel like actually it's quite positive. I wasn't really expecting much out of the Brentford Arsenal game. I think in reality, I thought if the clean sheet was going to go, it was probably going to be in that one. So when it did, it was okay. I mean, look, Gabrielle picked up the DefCon, didn't he? I was, the most,

the thing that annoyed me the most was him getting booked. I was like, don't do that. I can't be losing points for things like that. But never mind. They at least all played all three of the ones that I had. So yeah, 50 points so far this game week. The Man City Boys, it was for me, saving me. Semenio, Gahey, and then obviously,

Harlan, all of them returning that feel felt really nice actually to have that game go well.

But yeah, it's so far a green arrow. I'm in theory it can only get greener next week with

the second part of the double game week. So yeah, I mean, look, the triple captain is what

it is. I very, very last minute decided to play that, got complete FOMO from it.

I played it at 559. Yeah, I was very close to the deadline. I was not playing it until

550. I had no interest. No. I was the same. I had nothing until I didn't realize you had actually. No, well mine happened a little bit earlier in the day than yours. I, um, I was walking to pick up my youngest from school and I thought, what am I? I can't not do it. Can I am going to have to? Because realistically, it's a single game week otherwise. I was quite happy with that and then I was

looking at my team and I was just in the end I thought just do it just do it now and then it's

done try and maximize this double game week and do I regret it I don't think so I do ask me this

time next week and then I'll let you know right jules interrupt mine and sam's waffle about whether
