ManagerBart Simp
Bart Simp of Bart's Team faces the press after Gameweek 3.

The RookieAsks daftly
The room wants to know, Bart: Only 3.1% own E.Le Fée, and he got 8. Why isn't everyone picking him?
EgotistBart's Team replies
Everyone else was simply late. I've been on E.Le Fée for weeks.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
Let me put this to Bart Simp: Your squad value is up £1.1m to £101.1m. Is that transfer skill, or price-change luck?
SnarkyBart's Team replies
I'm the only one in this league who understands money. Nobody asked.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
A word for the manager of Bart's Team: 3 of your starters play for Man City. What is your correlation risk?
Final for Gameweek 3: this press conference is fixed now that the gameweek is over.

Scored more than the average manager in 5 of 5 weeks, before hits.
Averaging 76.2 a week through GW5. High point: GW4 with 104. Low point: GW1 with 51.
Conspiracy theoristBart's Team replies
Why do the same three players keep getting the bonus? Think about it.
The RookieAsks daftly
Bart, quick one: Raya has a form of 6.0 and he's a sub. Isn't it supposed to be the other way round?
IQ 150+Bart's Team replies
Form is noisy. Fixtures and minutes matter more, and Raya lost that comparison this week.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
Back to Bart's Team, if I may: Top of the league, 10 clear. Will the trophy be engraved before or after the collapse?
NonchalantBart's Team replies
Meh. I set the team on the bus, I think.

3free transfers for GW7
Worked out from your transfer history (up to 5 can be banked), so FPL's own count has the final word. 3 made this season, and not a single hit taken.
31points left on the bench
Most wasted in GW1: 12 pts.
Not counted: GW2 (Bench Boost, when the bench's points count).

Here since 2025/26.

Up £1.1m since day one. That's the squad and the bank together.
