The Quarter Pounder with cheese is made with 100 percent fresh beef, cooked when you order it. Then comes the melted cheese, the slivered onions, the pickles, the ketchup and the mustard. Add hot crispy fries and an iced cold Coke, all for eight dollars.

And if things go well, one loose fry at the bottom of the bag. The Quarter Pounder with cheese meal, now eight dollars. Ba-da-ba-ba-ba.

Joe (1:39)

Hello and welcome to another video and podcast from Fantasy Football Scout. My name is Joe and today I'm joined by Mark, aka FPL General, who will be revealing his team ahead of Gameweek 10

Hi, welcome everyone. So we're recording this on Monday, the 2nd of November. So there's one more match to go with Newcastle versus Everton. I have no more players to go. So I'm on a red arrow and that red arrow will get bigger as well. Welcome, Mark. How are you?

Mark (2:11)

I'm good, Joe. Good to be back. Hard to believe we're going into Gameweek 10 already. It's going pretty quickly despite the long three-week break that we had. And we have another one coming up pretty soon, of course.

We won't mention that just yet. But yeah, a small red arrow like yourself, no players left, but hopefully no major damage done.

Joe (2:29)

Yeah, hopefully not. I mean, I think I've gone down a little bit because I think there were some overnight changes, some DEFCONs. So Califuri, who was a very rare moment when I was counting Califuri's DEFCONs. Sadly, they knocked off one overnight, which is bad as well. Okay, so what we're going to do today, we're going to look to see how Mark gone on in Gameweek 9 We're going to look ahead to Gameweek 10 and beyond. We're going to look at double digit defenders. They're very much on people's minds. As we're looking to get a march on the climb up the rankings as well. We've got a whole bunch of defenders who are getting double digit scores. They've got a whole range of points. So we will assess the best options. Plus we'll look at the fixtures, see who's got the best set of games coming up. Plus we'll look at the Capsule Matrix for the weeks ahead. So lots to chat about. Do press that like button, it does help us out.

Not earth shattering, but it's okay. It's not a bad week.

So yeah, do you want to take us through your team, who you're happy with, who you're sad with?

Mark (3:52)

Yeah, so rolling back to last week, Joe Pedro injury news.

I moved early on Tuesday because of the price changes last week. Got rid of Joe Pedro, brought in Nico Jackson. And the main reason for that was because I want to do Kinski to Raya this week. And I'm on that. And I was last Tuesday as well. So that was why I went early. Jackson did the business, which was good.

My Gameweek was always going to depend on my defense versus the Arsenal defenders, basically.

Because I was planning to triple up this coming Gameweek, I thought this was my last opportunity to take on the Arsenal defense. Calculated the gamble, didn't pay off, of course. Liverpool, I know the XG won't suggest it, but they were well on top for a lot of that game and could have easily scored. But I needed, De Kuyper did the business with a nine-pointer, but I needed one of Gavardio or Nico Williams to do something, and they didn't. But it's fine, it didn't pay off. I would do it again if I was back there. And now I can just get triple Arsenal defense this week and never doubt them again, is the plan going forward. Kinski's been actually good for me the last two Gameweeks. He's got me two clean sheets, but it's not going to be enough to save him from becoming David Raya because that has been the plan for a wee while. Midfield, the game we started well with Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers, but it didn't get much better after that. Grossblank, Gibbs White again, he's been a major problem for me. Up front, Kaepernick Blank as well. Captain Hallan for a blank, and then Jackson with a nine-pointer. So the bench looks bad because there's 16 points there for California Concert. It was 18 before the California Defcon disappeared. So yeah, one of those where if I was 10K on top 100K, I wouldn't have taken the gamble, but it's very hard to get opportunities nowadays to get a bit of a jump. And if I play that game week a few more times, it might have went in my favor once or twice. And yeah, it wasn't to be. But again, like I said, no major damage was done.
