GW35 - 54pts. 17K >>> 14k 🌎 Very solid week, Eze putting in work.

Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 02/05/2025
GW34 - 91pts. 24K >>> 17k 🌎 Just a monster of a GW. On reflection, pretty pleased with how I mapped out the chips. Yes, this one popped off but the overall strategy and thinking was good on refelection. Last few weeks to close out a very hot run season.

Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 26/04/2025
GW34. OR 24k 🌍 Free hit week. Hard to get too excited but hopefully can make a gain on those that have already used.

Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 24/04/2025
GW33 - 74pts. 25k >>> 24k 🌎 Bench boosted 7pts in GW32 and just the 3pts with the TC in GW33 and still managed two teeny green arrows. It's not great but I will take it. Free hit this week looks straightforward.

GW 33 OR 27k 🌍 Two frees. Murphy >>> Rashford Estupinan >>> Kiwior Triple Captain Saka, let's go

Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 17/04/2025
GW32 - 86pts. 28k >>> 25k 🌏 A terrible bench boost but a small green arrow. Triple captain and free hit still to come.
000
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 12/04/2025
GW32 OR 28k 🌏 Gabriel >>> Estupinan BB active. It was very close between WC and BB but decided to stick with the original plan and go with Saka next week. BB looks strong.
050
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 08/04/2025
GW31 - 58pts. 36K >>> 28k 🌏 Not getting the Murphy points is annoying but a good gameweek anyway. 3 chips in 3 weeks incoming.
000
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 05/04/2025
GW31 OR 36k 🌎 Just a roll this week and then BB next week.
020
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 04/04/2025
GW30 - 54pts 40K >>> 36K 🌎 Will take that. Now a decision on where to move Gabriel. May just hold for the moment.
020
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 02/04/2025
GW30 OR 40k 🌎 Late to the party this week but happy with my spot wildcarding. Looks pretty template as expected but I did really like the option of gambling on Saka early. Boo Arsenal defence.
010
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 17/03/2025
GW29 - 57pts. 47k >>> 40k 🌎 One of the more absurd weeks in recent memory. Ran hot all year and this one summed it up. Left myself no room other than to wildcard so the button has been pressed. In a good position for a strong run in now.
020
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
GW29 🌏47k Alisson >>> Pickford Salah >>> Kluivert This could be a pretty funky week. I really wanted to avoid burning the Isak gains so Haaland just couldn't work and expect Brighton to lock them down. Lets go Bruno. Wildcard incoming.
020
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 11/03/2025
GW28 - 58pts 44k >>> 47k 🌎 Pretty happy to tread water this week given am well set up for the run in. Annoying not to get the Bruno points but the decision was benching ahead of Pedro anyway. Will use the two frees this week to get a full team out then likely straight into a WC.
010
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 08/03/2025
GW 29 - OR 44k 🌍 Rolling the transfer to enable two fts next week and will get a full team out for the blank GW before hitting that wildcard.
010
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 28/02/2025
GW27 -> 62 (-4) 58pts. 🌎 43k >>> 44k Really pleased with that week given the captain blank. Continue to run hot, Nkunku great returns. Now in a fine position to get through to the wildcard in GW30/31. Almost certainly rolling this week.
010
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 25/02/2025
GW27. 🌍 43k Disasi >>> Ait Nouri Rogers >>> Nkunku Pivoting away from the GW29 blank and taking a hit this week instead. Just looks like a better option now and can then play the magical 4 chips in a row. Easy Captain Palmer, benching Isak 😨
020
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 24/02/2025
107pts. 93k >>> 43k 🌎 Glasner the obvious run good here but Bruno, Beto, Hall, Liverpool defence all going well. Just gotta run hot at this time of year. Chip season on the horizon.
030
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 21/02/2025
GW 26 - 93k 🌎 Emery >>> Glasner So many paths. Am now looking at using the free hit in GW29 rather than holding for GW34. Still have some flexibility with the Wildcard in terms of activing GW31 or holding until GW35. This just looks the best for my team but all very close. Lets go Salah.
010
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 20/02/2025
89pts. 79k >>> 93k 🌎 Bad week. Attention moves to navigating through BGW29 to set up a chip bonanza. Fairly certain I will take some short term pain to avoid using the free hit in BGW29 and dead end into a GW31 wildcard. Can then play a chip for 4 consecutive weeks. All transfers precious now.

Incredible work. Seriously, maybe I haven't looked in the right places but I dont remember the last time I heard a conversation like this.

Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 18/02/2025
I always listen to the podcast whilst multitasking - working, gaming, cooking etc. This time I find myself leaning back in my chair, just totally zoned in listening/watching. Incredible conversations. I was grinning at times and felt a bit tearful afterwards. Merino as a striker. 😪

Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 14/02/2025
🌎79k Ass Man - Moyes >>> Emery Konsa >>> Disasi The Konsa injury is really irritating. Disasi is just a short term gamble for the DGW really... and doesn't hurt me in the medium term. Still feel behind the curve but been riding the run good all season long.

Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 13/02/2025
116k >>> 79k 🌎 Well done Beto. Solid work.
010
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 01/02/2025
🌎116k Calvert Lewin >>> Beto Ass Man looked relatively obvious this week so let the chaos of that ensure. Team looks a bit messy but okay in the short term? Who really knows at this point. Variance be kind please.

City -1.75 now, not a lot of love for them. That line just has to be too low.

Bloody hell, today's newsletter was so good. With the accompanying youtube vids too and the walkthroughs of the plays. Glorious stuff. 👏 Love these tactical breakdowns.

48pts. 67k >>> 116k 🌎 A horror of a week and now have to sort out the mess. The rolling of transfers managed one measly week. Into the real meat of FPL now and can still target a good finish.
020
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 24/01/2025
67k 🌏 Nice straightforward roll this week. Team looks good and okay for next few weeks.
020
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 21/01/2025
57pts. 88K >>> 67k 🌎 Pleased with this week. A DCL goal, Bruno pen and Liverpool defence getting it done. Should be in line for a first transfer roll in 7 weeks. Much needed with everything coming up.
010
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 18/01/2025
88k. 🌏 Evanlison >>> Calvert-Lewin I don't love it but its fine. Planning to get some transfer rolls in now, desparately need it.
140
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 17/01/2025
What are we supposed to make of Forest -1.25 when United went off -1.75 last night. Saints are definitely going to be better under Juric and showed that last night but like cmon, really. Dibling hurt but Downes likely to be back.
100
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 17/01/2025
75pts. 104k >>> 88k. 🌎 Nothing too spectacular but will take the green arrow. Evanlison has to go now, DCL looks fine with the double in GW24. Doomed to never have more than 1 FT in the bank. Hoping to get some rolls in after this week as team looks fairly well positioned.
030
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 14/01/2025
103k 🌎 Mbeumo >> Fernandes Evanlison injury is annoying, forcing another move. Bringing Bruno in this week was just too valuable. Spent £££s in the bank, Saints are cooked and looks a good long term hold. Nothing leaping out as an Evanilson replacement that moves the needle enough atm.
130
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 07/01/2025
66pts. 98k >>> 104k 🌎 Killed by the Forest game last night but fairly pleased overall. Mbeumo the star of the show but will still probably go this week. Bruno looks too enticing as a final move, utilising money in the bank before hopefully rolling transfers for the rest of January.
020
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 04/01/2025
🌏98k Gabriel >>> Trent (finally) Mbeumo > Bruno looks good next week but, other than that, hoping to be able to just check out now and bank some transfers. Had zero flexibility all season and +variance has bailed me out. Mbeumo, Evanilson and Castagne are the difference makers this week. 🙏
000
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 01/01/2025
66pts. 55k >>> 98k. 🌎 Bad week. Wrong captain, Trent mega punish and all the wrong bench decisions. Thankfully my fringe guys came in hard or this could have been 100k ranks gone. Trent in this week and hopefully able to roll much of January and get some much needed flexibility down the road.
010
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 29/12/2024
55k 🌏 Ederson >>> Becker Straightforward transfer this week and one more week to fade Trent points before moving for him. Some marginal bench decisions and feel like its going to be one of those weeks where Captain pick is going to dictate the arrow. Happy treading water as team looks meh. 🥶
030
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 28/12/2024
Pretty content with double Liverpool defence, not expecting anyone else from their attack that I will want. ATM am benching Hall but its close with both Castagne and Konsa. Also probably benching Evanilson. Close calls this week on the bench, will change if get any expected minutes updates.
000
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 28/12/2024
Bournemouth are a very solid team. I will almost certainly go Becker, I can go premium in the GK spot and still have funds for future moves. Well played on the last few weeks!
100
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 28/12/2024
60pts. 42k 🔻🔻🔻 55k 🌏 Frustrating week, managed to fade Trent & get in a good spot then saw all my differentials put up blanks. Forced into 3rd keeper transfer of the season now. Will still almost certainly move for Trent in a couple of weeks. Gotta ride it out until then as team looks mixed.
120
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 26/12/2024
🌏 42k Saka >>> Odegaard There were some interesting lines this week. Took the lowest variance approach and with £2.3m in the bank now, I can flex elsewhere if needed. Looking for a big performance from Ode but also Evanilson and Joao Pedro might dictate the green arrow. Fade Trent one time 🙏
020
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 23/12/2024
89 points. 57k >>> 42k 🌏 Another good week making it 10 green arrows in the last 12 GWs. Saka is an interesting one now. None of the pretenders look all that compelling but it's probably Son.
030
Mark Porter @markporter1.bsky.social · 21/12/2024
🌏57k Pinnock >>> Castagne No transfers in the bank but squad looks well set to tackle the Christmas period. The Pinnock injury made this week pretty straightforward. Was going to move to Colwill anyway but Castagne looks a better emerging option after the Fulham injury situation.

65 points. 95k >>>> 57k🌎 The run good continues. Isak and Hall transfers paid off handsomely. Team looks in a decent place although some areas I would like to make upgrades - namely Davis, Pinnock and Evanilson. Nothing pressing though so it's looking like a roll or a Davis>Colwill type move.
