Neil Patel-Hernandez of Red Lobster FC faces the press after Gameweek 4.
The RookieAsks daftly
The room wants to know, Neil: You beat the average in 2 of 5 weeks. Is the average very good?
EgotistRed Lobster FC replies
The average is the problem. I am the solution.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
On behalf of the press pool, Neil: The Special Ones trail you by only 12 points. How robust is your position to one bad gameweek?
SnarkyRed Lobster FC replies
They can breathe all they like. I've got a window.
Haaland Captain18 pts (9 × 2)
Raya: 14 pts. Swapping the armband would have gained 10 pts.
Vice-captain: Raya, 14 pts
14 ptsleft on the bench

Scored more than the average manager in 2 of 5 weeks, before hits.
Averaging 59.8 a week through GW5. High point: GW2 with 101. Low point: GW5 with 33.
The RookieAsks daftly
A word for the manager of Red Lobster FC: 3 of your players are flagged. Is there a doctor in the house?
Conspiracy theoristRed Lobster FC replies
I trust the numbers. I just don't trust where they come from.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
Neil, if I may: Wissa, form 0.7, still starts. Is loyalty a strategy?
Drama queenRed Lobster FC replies
Oh, cruel Gameweek 4! Fortune is a fickle mistress, and she has my number.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
Neil, a question for you: Davis scored 14 on your bench. Have you considered starting your players?
IQ 150+Red Lobster FC replies
Bench points are an unobserved counterfactual with selection bias. Nobody knows in advance which of fifteen players will return.
Final for Gameweek 4: this press conference is fixed now that the gameweek is over.
