GW 26: Like a Knife Through Hot Butter

FPL is a game that’s often characterized by the feeling of disappointment. Cold, hard, and unadulterated disappointment. And yet, before every seemingly juicy double gameweek, it seems like we FPL managers have a genuine reason to be hopeful. Double Gameweek 25 was one of those gameweeks—how exciting was it that Man City and Liverpool, two of the best teams in the league, would have two nice fixtures each?

In MJ’s words, perhaps we should come to expect disappointment; that way, we’ll never be disappointed. But there is reason to be hopeful, surely!

I daresay it seems almost inevitable—though that is admittedly a dangerous term—that Hwang and Neto will carve through the Blades’s defense (ironic nickname, isn’t it?) like a knife through hot butter.
