Japan 2024 Away Authentic Forgot I had it, lovely shirt, going to be used for 6-a-side.

Really love being able to chuck YouTube on and you can find a live game. Even more comforting knowing it's got a good number of people watching live like me

Mexico Away 22 One of the best modern era shirts that never got to be worn at a WC even though it was listed as the official away strip for the tournament. It's sublime!

14/15 Away Shirt Found on my travels and you can't pass on a Dembele shirt, it's the rules.

33pts I bought Delap instead of playing Gross because I'm an FPL genius. Think I might be able to charge for my advice soon

Next is the Barcelona 26/26 Away ADV (Elite) shirt. Loved the colour and snapped it up with a 20% discount.

Bad GW aside, I did purchase some shirts this week. Firstly the Bayern Wiesn (Oktoberfest) shirt. This is very much getting mixed reviews, but I love it. Also great for a 6-a-side team that does different colours each week.

GW5 Out White Joao Pedro In Maitland-Niles Delap (-4) Decided to take the hit and have some fun. Yes, that is Armstrong in my team because apparently I fancy getting 1pt from a player.

87pts Guess you can consider the WC a success in the short term, that bench though is very healthy and will always leave a slight disappointed feeling.

One of the best features of Draft League is the taking away of the constant Captaincy conundrum. You can just enjoy how your players score without wishing they had the armband. That said, this team on paper looks dreadful, then you're pleasantly surprised by the outcome

GW4 WC Fairly template to most, kept Gvardiol for the price and the home fixtures in the coming weeks. Kadıoğlu is a gamble but I've already lost value on him and kind of stuck with limited options to move to right now. Horníček in goal from next week as his next 5-7 fixtures are good.

USA 24/25 ADV Elite Home shirt Nothing fancy in the overall design, but I really liked the collar on this shirt.

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 06/09/2026
66pts Green arrow, a healthy bench too. It's likely the TC is a failure compared to future GW's but at least I got 1 return. WC time now as I would of lost about .7 on this team over the weekend.

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
GW3 Team so far, 2 transfers: Out Palestra Igor Jesus In Gvardiol Wissa Fairly happy, but there is a little bit of me considering Munoz in for Tzolis for a -4 for a one week go. Seems foolish to take a hit but Ipswich collapse will do that. Have to WC in GW4 due to 6 players going down tonight

For reference as to the difference as Vinted won't pull the listing because we all just scam one another these days. It's not even a close imitation, it's shoddy and ridiculous. Listing even says dri fit material which is a Nike feature not Puma.

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
77pts A bit of a disaster compared to almost everyone else. Temptation to WC is reaching fever pitch but I have to tell myself 77 is still a good amount and the choices are right, just the luck/outcome wasn't as good as others.

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 28/08/2026
GW2 Transfer rolled Mbeumo C (Probably should be JP) Took the dogs for a walk instead of deadline concerns, dropped Palestra for Robertson. Could make zero difference, we shall see.

53pts Really poor start on a BB, can't regret making these decisions just have to live with it.
0170
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 21/08/2026
GW1 BB Nothing fancy, took the odd punt on Tel, Palestra, & Tzolis
0210
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
My draft team looks absolutely chaotic, but with some random punts in. If these don't work then I know I can snag some new transfers in, and Silva from Bournemouth via the waiver.

Gold Cup shirt Think it just pops, likely this will be seen as a classic in the future it's not one you see many wearing or talking of.
010
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 16/08/2026
Couple more picked up in the sales. The Brazil away I liked the colours but it's fit is really shocking for an Elite shirt. The Mexico 3rd has some really nice badges, this one is really popular but it's not as good as the Gold Cup shirt from the year before
021
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 12/08/2026
FPL draft i made a few weeks back. No changes so far, no tinkering. I had Shaw mostly due to assured minutes, not some fancy pipedream. Bench would/will need work before the game starts

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 08/08/2026
Some shirts get overlooked or just ignored for many reasons, the Red Bull Salzburg 20-21 3rd shirt looks basic from afar but the sponsor they did something unique that year..

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 03/08/2026
You do also find out when going through storage boxes that your memory at times is a bit shit, and thus you own 3 of this shirt. Lovely Ivory Coast shirt doe

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 03/08/2026
What I have been up to this week is sorting out my storage boxes, and I found a few shirts I forgot all about. This one, well, it's not everyone's top choice but the nameset helps sell it...

Friend of mine managed to get me the Costa Rica authentic away for less than retail, it's a lovely shirt! Kind of nice to wear in this sunny weather too

Current MD3 WC. May move one or two around, Argentina is all gambles as they seem fairly set for rotation now they're through and it's Jordan.

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 24/06/2026
GW2 88pts Bad captain choice, few iffy decisions, some bad luck with injuries to 3 players too. WC time to give myself a swing at the rotations and see if i can get a rank jump.
010
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 19/06/2026
This away shirt had the chance to be well regarded and fantastic, but that break makes it look like a poorly executed shirt with a confused pattern. Doesn't add anything either, so why it's there is a mystery.

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 18/06/2026
Rd2 - 2 transfers out Manzambi Semenyo In Enner Valencia (Old lads for the spectacle) Doue 12th man played. Doue brothers on the bench, the French option is if Williams is a disappointment I have an alternative.

Don't see myself playing WC fantasy but had a go at a team seen as everyone is posting up. Slightly bemused there is a template team considering it's a WC and not just league play. Kessie is the only real iffy choice, but a penalty taker and integral to Ivory Coast. Rest didn't overthink it too

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 24/05/2026
Took a -8 for 3 moves, they returned a total of 5pts. One of those moves I'm certain I did not make, and I did not make DCL my cpt but there you go. It's over, finally.
060
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 20/05/2026
58pts. Red arrow, another selection mistake, Saka was at least my highest scoring player so I got the captaincy correct. Languishing at 1million, who honestly cares now? Worst season in over a decade, may just get Kyle Walker and call it a season
050
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 15/05/2026
GW37 Out Munoz Mbeumo In Maguire Saka (-4) Took another hit, fancied Saka today and keeping faith in Mbeumo has gotten me nowhere. Slab head in as no one seems to be talking about the Utd defence and they could keep a CS if MGW is still out for Nottingham Forest
090
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 14/05/2026
90pts It's nothing fancy, but it's a welcomed rank rise on a BB. Didn't need Canvot for a -4, but I took a chance.
070
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 09/05/2026
GW36 Out Mavropanos Ouattara Thiaw In Canvot Hinshelwood O'Reilly -8 taken, doesn't matter if I finish 1mill or 850k at this point so why not buy who I want?
040
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 05/05/2026
61pts Green arrow, nothing fancy, it'll do.
080
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 01/05/2026
GW35 Out Jose Sa Solanke In Raya Calvert-Lewin (-4) Both sales were due to likely season ending injuries, been shit all season regardless of decision making or 'playing safe' so lets just make moves and see what happens.
090
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 28/04/2026
41pts Sold Richarlison for Solanke which turns out was monumentally stupid, had 4 players in the Monday game and got bugger all as well. Season nearly done, been miserable, Tottenham won finally at least
070
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 24/04/2026
GW34 Out Van Hecke Timber Richarlison In Mavropanos Munoz Solanke (-4) Went Solanke against City a few weeks back and did me good, lets roll the dice again. I'm doing shit anyhows so why not just enjoy my picks going forwards.
160
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 22/04/2026
82pts Captain gamble failed, should of kept Van Hecke, Leno outscored DGW keepers pretty much so could of kept him, should of played better this year. Ah well

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 17/04/2026
First FH draft, seems dull like grey hallway paint, but I sort of like it.
030
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 13/04/2026
42pts Horrible GW, horrible season, horrible feeling of being bad at this game even when you're making moves that are not stupid or reckless. FH coming I think
080
The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 11/04/2026
Another shirt I picked up just over a month ago was the England women's Away ADV shirt. For £50 it's a bargain

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 11/04/2026
Definitely picked the right ones, these are fantastic!

The Average FPLers @averagefplers.bsky.social · 10/04/2026
GW32 Out Ekitike In Haaland Bit boring, would appear I've not fully got back into the swing of FPL after having 3 weeks off. Could FH next week for 11 DGW players, or BB with SGW players on good fixtures, got a wee bit of time to decide

Anger at the world aside, I have got time to finally picture some shirts and enjoy having them. Some namesets can make or break a shirt, the Día de los Muertos namesets though are nothing short of beautiful.

For anyone after the Curacao shirt, adidas UK has an event/page for both types up. Thankfully that saves me about £120 in VAT, and shipping fees from the only other place that was originally offering the shirt.
