ManagerAlfonso Castrejon
Alfonso Castrejon of El Cochiloco faces the press after Gameweek 4.

The RookieAsks daftly
Alfonso, a question for you: Saka la bolsita is right behind you. Shouldn't you run?
SnarkyEl Cochiloco replies
They can breathe all they like. I've got a window.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
The room wants to know, Alfonso: Verbruggen made 6 saves for you. Is that goalkeeping skill, or a sign your defence is under siege?
NonchalantEl Cochiloco replies
Whatever. Moving on. Is this the last question?
João Pedro Captain24 pts (12 × 2)

Scored more than the average manager in 3 of 5 weeks, before hits.
Averaging 66.0 a week through GW5. High point: GW2 with 111. Low point: GW5 with 38.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
Let me put this to Alfonso Castrejon: Kinsky scored 7 on your bench. Have you considered starting your players?
IQ under 40El Cochiloco replies
Can you repeat the question? Slower? With pictures?
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
On behalf of the press pool, Alfonso: Wissa, form 0.7, still starts. Is loyalty a strategy?
EgotistEl Cochiloco replies
Wissa will find form, because I believe in him. That's how it works.
The RookieAsks daftly
Sorry to ask, Alfonso Castrejon: João Pedro got 12 points as captain. Does that mean you did it right?
Conspiracy theoristEl Cochiloco replies
Notice how nobody ever asks about the bonus-point office.
Final for Gameweek 4: this press conference is fixed now that the gameweek is over.
