Drin faces the press after Gameweek 6.
The RookieAsks daftly
So, sakadeez, the idea is to get more points than the other managers. Is that right?
IQ 150+sakadeez replies
In the first-order sense, yes, though strictly we maximise points under a budget constraint and a transfer cost. You have just described the objective function.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
54 points in Gameweek 6. How much of that is signal and how much is variance, and what would the confidence interval on your process look like?
Egotistsakadeez replies
Very narrow, because I am rarely wrong. The rest of the league is the variance.
Ødegaard Captain2 pts (1 × 2)
De Cuyper: 15 pts. Swapping the armband gains 28 pts so far.
Vice-captain: Wissa, 0 pts

Scored more than the average manager in 1 of 5 weeks, before hits. Hits not shown: GW5 cost 4.
Averaging 51.8 a week through GW5. High point: GW4 with 67. Low point: GW5 with 35.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
Critics call sakadeez 'a group chat that was handed a budget'. Your response?
Snarkysakadeez replies
At least the group chat is funnier than your column. And it replies faster.
Invented for fun: nobody was really asked anything.

1free transfer for GW7
Worked out from your transfer history (up to 5 can be banked), so FPL's own count has the final word. 5 made this season, and the hits cost you 4 pts.
Unverified Your hits don't match this count, so FPL may have granted extra transfers.
