Nico Zarzaua of Newpi faces the press after Gameweek 5.
The RookieAsks daftly
A word for the manager of Newpi: You had 3.5 expected goals and 1 real ones. Which one counts?
EgotistNewpi replies
The goals are coming. I schedule them personally.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
Nico, if I may: You've beaten the average in 0 of 5 weeks. Are you its rival, or its understudy?
IQ 150+Newpi replies
The average manager is noisy, and short samples overstate any gap. I'd want a longer series before rewriting anything.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
Nico, a question for you: You are 19th of 21, inside the bottom four. What is the probability of climbing out?
Final for Gameweek 5: this press conference is fixed now that the gameweek is over.

Averaging 49.0 a week through GW5. High point: GW2 with 66. Low point: GW1 with 42.
NonchalantNewpi replies
Sure. I mean, what are you gonna do?
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
On behalf of the press pool, Nico: Belloumi fell one tackle short of the bonus. Is that fate, or just rudeness?
SnarkyNewpi replies
One short. That's my entire fantasy career in two words.
The RookieAsks daftly
Nico Zarzaua, Newpi supporters want to know: Only 9.1% own Pickford, and he got 8. Why isn't everyone picking him?
Spin doctorNewpi replies
We appreciate the question, and we will issue a statement in due course.

2free transfers for GW7
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.
1points left on the bench
Most wasted in GW5: 1 pt.

Up £1.0m since day one. That's the squad and the bank together.
