Gian Jaen of Gaucho F.C. faces the press after Gameweek 5.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
Gian, if I may: Raya delivered 1 point and a shrug. Is he under contract, or just visiting?
SnarkyGaucho F.C. replies
He stood there. It's an underrated skill.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
Back to Gaucho F.C., if I may: B.Fernandes, form 1.7, still starts. Is loyalty a strategy?
Drama queenGaucho F.C. replies
The stars aligned against me. Mostly Mars, which is red, like my bench.
Haaland Captain12 pts (6 × 2)
Thomas: 9 pts. Swapping the armband would have gained 6 pts.
Vice-captain: B.Fernandes, 2 pts

The ProfessorAsks cleverly
Let me put this to Gian Jaen: You rank 147,643 overall, ahead of 99% of the world. Is that skill or survivorship?
Conspiracy theoristGaucho F.C. replies
Gaucho F.C. didn't make a mistake. Gaucho F.C. was made to make a mistake.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
The room wants to know, Gian: Bart's Team is 10 points ahead of you. Which of their decisions are you modelling to overtake them?
EgotistGaucho F.C. replies
Bart's Team is only ahead of me temporarily, like a pedestrian in front of a bus.
The RookieAsks daftly
Gian, quick one: You scored 50. Isn't a normal week about 75 for you?
IQ under 40Gaucho F.C. replies
I like points. They go up. Mostly.
Final for Gameweek 5: this press conference is fixed now that the gameweek is over.

Most wasted in GW3: 16 pts.
Not counted: GW2 (Bench Boost, when the bench's points count).
