    I have two free transfers as totally forgot last GW and did nothing to my team, my FPL season mirrors United's atrocious season. I have become apathetic toward football, I am very happy the World Cup is a year away, I need a break from football.

    After Arsenal failing to keep up with Liverpool, I've been more than ready for a break too. Even from FPL! I will be playing the Norwegian and the Swedish fantasy games during the PL break, and as soon as the game is launched for the 2025/26 season, I will spend a lot of times on making drafts.

    This summer will be huge for several teams. A lot of work will be dome in board rooms in the coming months.

    Don't forget the "World Cup" next month..........
    The FIFA Club World Cup is starting in mid June.

    Has Zubimendi signed yet ? Do you want/need another mid ?

    Yes! Imagine quite a few teams will do business before the Club World Cup too.

    No news re. Zubimendi lately, although what is said, is that he's close to joining. I really hope he's that missing piece in midfield.

    Desperately need another midfielder in my opinion, but a creative/advanced one to try replicate the dual threat Xhaka had. Zubimendi is used to playing deeper but then again so was Xhaka so I'm lightly optimistic for his signing. More importantly though is a striker and a left winger.

    Indeed, I don't have high hopes for Arsenal if they don't get their striker and left winger. Crucial business.

    I remembered to change my team, as I still have TNT subscription will watch United get beat by Villa later.

    Still deciding on my moves. Will be watching Arsenal obviously, but am tempted to have a separate stream up with other matches.

    _________

    Here are the gameweek 38 captaincy picks!
    Salah: 7
    Isak: 2
    Saka: 1
    Mitoma: 1
    Maddison: 1
    Mbuemo: I1
    Haaland: 1
    Wissa: 1
    Marmoush: 1
    Cunha: 1

    In the final gameweek of the season, seven managers are looking to Salah to bring them the last push in the rankings, followed by Isak, who is captained by two managers. These two are the only players backed by more than one manager. Good luck everyone!

    Typical first ten minutes United completely dominant Villa can't get the ball.

    I forgot we go on tour end of season to pick up a few millions.

    Not checked my team will wait until full time, I forgot who my captain is 😂

    Heaven is going to be a star, Heaven and Yoro the future is bright in defence.

    How has United not scored there, Maguire turned into Messi again.

    United playing some good football, you really have to question the application of the players when they can play like this.

    Would imagine Villa would show up against United. Looks like they didn't based on what you write here!

    Red card Martinez totally took Rasmus out.

    That was crazy, apparently he may leave also.

    Rasmus scores... Offside 😂

    Villa in trouble Chelsea scored so my Forest double defence backfired.

    How many chances does United want, we are terrible on final third at converting opportunities.

    Villa will nick a goal on the counter at this rate and punish us.

    Oh, my ... Everton lead at Newcastle. Potential disaster in the making ...

    Villa up to fifth if they can hold on.

    My FPL team probably is very low in points. All the games going against me.

    Haven't seen many teams doing great – except my money league rivals, all of whom have Bowen in their teams…

    Controversy Villa scored from a Bayinder miss hap... VAR...

    That's a goal IMO, no foul. Typical.

    Ref blew whistle early so no goal.

    Villa robbed there.

    Amad goal, major controversy. Great goal though Villa goal should have stood will cost them big time.

    You're still looking to win our mini-league, I think, congratulations on that!

    Penalty to United, Amad fouled chasing a superb Casimiro long ball.

    Eriksen been told to take it by the manager.

    Goal nice gesture.

    Half expecting another of the owner's on field meltdowns at the City Ground should Forest lose ....

    Grealish didn't even make the bench for Guardiola, expect he'll be off in the summer.

    Wonder if Nuno Espírito Santo is still the Forest manager when we start next season… Still a great season by them, even though they missed out on CL.

    Haven't been able to contribute as much as I have wanted to, this season. Life has been a bit busy. I hope to write a nice end of the season write-up within the next few days.

    Thanks everyone for playing! FPL is a lot of fun, but it's much more so when you havea competitive league to compete with!
