ManagerAlfonso Castrejon
Alfonso Castrejon of El Cochiloco faces the press after Gameweek 5.
The RookieAsks daftly
Alfonso, quick one: You scored 38. Isn't a normal week about 66 for you?
SnarkyEl Cochiloco replies
38 points. The average of 66 is made mostly of other people's good luck.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
The room wants to know, Alfonso: £2.0m unspent while the squad creaks. Is that a savings plan or a cry for a shopping trip?
Conspiracy theoristEl Cochiloco replies
I have a spreadsheet that proves it. It proves nothing, which is exactly the proof.
Haaland Captain12 pts (6 × 2)
Cherki: 8 pts. Swapping the armband would have gained 4 pts.
Vice-captain: B.Fernandes, 2 pts

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
A word for the manager of El Cochiloco: Wissa missed from the spot. Will you be sending flowers?
EgotistEl Cochiloco replies
The goalkeeper got lucky, and I wish him luck with the rest of his career.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
On behalf of the press pool, Alfonso: Dang Football Club is 3 points ahead of you. Which of their decisions are you modelling to overtake them?
IQ 150+El Cochiloco replies
3 points is one good captain pick. Overtaking Dang Football Club is a differential game, and I know the exits.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
Let me put this to Alfonso Castrejon: Your back line conceded 12 between them. Was it selected on fixture difficulty alone?
Spin doctorEl Cochiloco replies
This has been a challenging week, as challenging weeks go.
Final for Gameweek 5: this press conference is fixed now that the gameweek is over.

Worked out from your transfer history (up to 5 can be banked), so FPL's own count has the final word. 4 made this season, and not a single hit taken.
38points left on the bench
Most wasted in GW3: 19 pts.
Not counted: GW1 (Bench Boost, when the bench's points count).

Up £2.5m since day one. That's the squad and the bank together.
