This is Unconventional FPL because I don't play by the template. Curve balls thrown left, right and centre! Enjoy and lock in!

Mini-league code is ccg5vc.

Arsenal fan too.
💭GW5 Plans

I have rolled a transfer and will have accumulated 3 free transfers for GW 6. I now have £101.2m of overall value, which is pretty good as far as I am concerned. The captaincy is on MGW, and I am gonna be hoping beyond all hope that Haaland does nothing against Sunderland.

📊GW4 Breakdown
🌎OR: 4.1 million

Getting 71 points has just kept me in the green zone by less than 1 point. Overall, I am happy with this result primarily because I captained my best-performing player — João Pedro. I was equally happy with the purchase of MGW, who’s already gone up in price.

I've got 71 points in GW4, which kept me in the green zone on less than 1 point. I feel really proud of myself for buying MGW even though slightly upset by the sale of Schade.

And thank God I got rid of Elanga who temporarily was in my WC squad.

I am on WC this week. Probably, the highlight of my WC is the absence of Erling Haaland and the presence of Bruno Fernandes. It’s a combo of gut feeling and unwillingness to play 15.5 million for one player.

I think I have unearthed an absolute gem rotation-wise for cheap defences. Leeds and Hull from GW4 to GW16.

🟢 — good
🟠 — average
🔴 — poor

Here are your options worth 5.0 million or less: Egan, Mendy, Tzolakis, Muharemovich, Trafford, Bogle, Justin.

📊GW4 Breakdown
🌎OR: 4.2 million

I got 64 points on Free Hit, with Ødegaard and Isak being my two key contributors to the tally. The captaincy was on Haaland because his ownership was close to 200%.

Overall, a positive week with a 12-point green arrow.

Ødegaard has really helped me to get a decent green arrow in GW4: 64 points and 12 points above the safety score.

Might even consider getting him in on the WC because he looks really involved and quite sharp to be honest with his passing and the runs he does.

#FPL

To me, this quite well sums up the transfer chaos going on at the moment. GW4 must be quite entertaining!

#FPL
September 6, 2026 at 9:07 AM
I am currently on 54 points with Martin Ødegaard remaining to play. I have also activated the WC and trying to farm some transfer value.

Hoping Ødegaard is going to help me maintain some decent green arrow. Before today's games, I am on a 16-point green arrow.

#FPL
September 6, 2026 at 8:48 AM
Okay, that is more like it! By the way, the draft GW4 WC might have just been thrown to the bin.😁

And I think Isak was taken off after 64 minutes simply because the game had already been wrapped.

I am playing the Free Hit in GW3. The captaincy is on Haaland. This is how my team is lining up.

I've had some conflicting thoughts about KDH and Ødegaard but was eventually swayed towards Ødegaard due to Chelsea's leaky defence.

Surely, this team must haul! We'll see!

📊GW2 Breakdown

🌎OR: 5.8 million

I finished on 78 points, 3 below the average but 3 above my safety score, and actually climbed some rank. The decision to captain Tzolis went horribly wrong for me, and I will try to follow my logic of captaining home players going forward.

Read on below.

#FPL

Having no Bruno F. (23) or Haaland (13) feels painful this week. I am on my safety score, though, despite having neither of them.

Have still got my three Arsenal and Tzolis captain to play. Might still be looking at a decent GW although the bench boost has only garnered me 8 points.🙏

↗️ Schade! Get in! Joāo Pedro too! I'm loving this game! Green arrow loading up! 💚💪

I find it quite ludicrous how so many FPL content creators were hyping up Kinsky seemingly dismissing De Zerbi's brand of football and Tottenham's overall defensive record last season. I never was on that bandwagon.

But unfortunately, I've got Van Hecke and Tel on bench boost.

#FPL
August 29, 2026 at 9:02 PM
I have shifted the captaincy from Mbeumo to Tzolis.

In GW1, Ipswich showed quite good defensive solidity, and Manchester United do not quite convince me in general to fully trust Mbeumo. Meanwhile, Arsenal and Tzolis might click even more now, and Villa are missing Gomes through suspension.

📊 GW1 Breakdown

🌎OR: 6.4 million

So I have got 43 points, 7 below the average. I didn't play the BB, so that's a caveat that puts a bit more of a positive light on my tally. I will be playing the BB in GW2, my team is in the screenshot.

Read on below. #FPL

🛝 How could I not own Haaland or Bruno and still be below the average?! The answer is criminal Thiago: -2 9-point swing.

22 points after three players played and 32 after ten did. Classic FPL!

João Pedro is currently trying to salvage my GW1.

#FPL
August 24, 2026 at 7:20 PM
22 points with Raya, Gabriel (C) and Christoz Tzolis having all played. Feel pretty chuffed about this start to GW1.

#FPL
August 21, 2026 at 9:08 PM
I might come to regret removing the captaincy from Tzolis, but nonetheless I am so far happy about captaining Gabriel.

Sould be a comfortable win for the Gunners in the second half. Come on, you Gunners! 🔴⚪

Plus Calafiori could become essential down the line.

#FPL #Arsenal
August 21, 2026 at 8:00 PM
I have shifted the captaincy from Christos Tzolis to Gabriel Magalhães, following the advice of Erik Ibsen to raise your floor rathen then your ceiling. Gabriel really fills me with calm and confidence. And he also got 9 GAs last season, so he could well get attacking contributions too.

What kind of fraudulence is this on PIX? Tottenham and Aston Villa have both won the Europa League, and you are supposed to choose between them who hasn't won a European cup. Am I missing something? Maybe @fplraptor.com can clarify?

❗With Erling Haaland's ownership dropping fast, I think many different strategies could shape up along the way and conservative, aka boring, strategies might not be quite as good as they normally are.

🔥 That spells one exciting FPL season!

❗Erling Haaland's ownership has dropped below 70% and around 4% since before the Community Shield (from 73.8 to 69.8 percent) and could still fall lower before the GW 1 deadline. Definitely, going without Haaland is becoming more and more popular.

🚨 Arsenal signing Ezri Kons is gonna be a big conundrum for all Mosquera owners! Ben White's minutes are also under a threat. But will Konsa be starting from early? Clearly he's not going to start in GW 1 and probably GW 2.
