No, I'm not dead (at time of writing). That said, you will be seeing significantly less of me. I am using my consumer voice and all but eliminating my twitter use. I'm still involved in the FPL community elsewhere. Drop me a DM if you want to connect.
Just a quick update that now exist in more places on the internet. I've got an Instagram (and soon Threads) account set up. Come on over and say hi! Here is a sample of my first post.

Hey all, a quick update from me. I'm still alive and posting model predictions and summaries over on my new Substack (FPLStrategic). Come and check it out!

If you are wondering. If Haaland was a midfielder, his data would read:
35 Goals
8 Assists
31 Bonus
298 Total Points
(I may look at Salah as a forward later, or I may not)
(Also, if Haaland was a defender it would be approximately 367 Total Points)
Erling Haaland is creeping up on Mohamed Salah's record for most #FPL points in a season... 👀
Will he beat the record in his four remaining games?
2 points in 27, no game in 28, and 0 in DGW29. Outside of that run, A return every week since GW23
Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.6m) has produced a return in each of his past six matches, racking up 36 points 🔥
Over that run, he’s created 15 chances, including seven big chances, resulting in a league-leading six assists ✨
Is he an essential defender to end the #FPL season? 👀
In isolation, if you captained Haaland, every point he scores actually hurts your rank. But obviously this is due to chips, so let's take a simple look at the choices you made/should have made better to avoid this Haaland pain:
No Haaland:
🩹Lots of pain.
But, If your combined players score more than an ideal team with Haaland in it (spreading funds etc), then you are actually feeling gain (despite that big 'pain' showing up on livefpl).

I'm cool if Bruno starts in goal. You know, to reduce his need to run so much. Definitely no general nor very specific FPL reasons I want this.
