    FPL is turning into a form of poker.

    A game that more often rewards aggression than conservative play.

    Depends what kind of player you are.

    After 70 points last week I had no problem doing - 8 this week.

    Gonna have fun this year. We will see how this ends. Used to play it safe last year and it was costly mistake.

    Yeah have the same attitude this year. Will have fun with it. Season could be a mess. Might as well enjoy it.

    Didn't enjoy 30pts last week though!!

    Stunning free from Pereira for 2-2.

    Digne transfer in turning out to be a disaster. 😢

    Very frustrating as a non Everton owner

    If you were one of those that did TAA to Digne - you probably wouldn't be overly happy now either.

    That's my point.

    Traditionally, a 70 point start would dictate that you stick, or at least continue to see the lie of the teams.

    Now, its be aggressive at any opportunity. "Gotta get Everton into my team on the foot of a good performance". I've seen double ups and treble ups.

    The reason is there is a gap between the top 7 and the rest that is quite distinct. So if you get your timing right, massive hauls can be yours if you're super aggressive at the right time.

    Before the last 2 or 3 years, I don't quite remember it being like that.

    It's not a complaint. I just think the game is slightly different to how it used to be.

    Glad I kept Pereira!

    Great return from him today so far which I was not expecting.

    Yeah true in fairness, you'd think there's still something in this for him though

    What's the craic with Johnstone?

    Is he getting close to saving anything at all or just exposed?

    Defense isn't great. new signing to come might tighten things up.

    Thought the same - he saved Richy's header that Keane turned in - dunno how that's not a save, and then there was a shot in first half that i saw him stopping.

    It wouldn't go in if he didn't touch it in the end I think.

    Stop it Everton. I can't take any more.

    Didn't trust DCL at start of season - even for 7m, but might have to look at getting him - with all these tap ins.
