Four weeks on from Thomas Hartnell's Gameweek 4 wildcard, the squad that was torn up would have outscored the ones that replaced it by 23 points, 269 to 246. Bart Verbruggen, sold that week, has scored 29 since; the best of the arrivals, Rogers, has 21. "I'm not saying it was a mistake," said fan Timothy Lewis. "I'm saying I've kept the box." Bart Verbruggen in particular went on to have a fantastic career in football since leaving Hartnell's side, scoring 29 points over the last four gameweeks.

OLD CHAINS SQUAD 72, NEW SQUAD 57
There is selling a player, and then there is selling Vuskovic the week he scores 11. Tom Glover managed it on a wildcard, as one of seven changes that left Food Chain FC 15 points worse off than the squad they started with. Richard Pitt, who has him at Wiz to the Top, is understood to be in no hurry to sell.

"TOTAL FOOTBALL" POINTS PARTY FOR KARATES
No stars, no passengers: Yeah Against Karate's 80-point week was spread right across Nathan Stacey's side, and leaves the Karates in fifteenth. Eight of them scored five points or more, and nobody ran away with it. "No egos. Everyone doing their job," said Roy Keane. "That's how football should be played. I'd still have had a go at one of them."

NATURES'S MANZAMBI "WORTH EVERY PENNY" OF £6.0M
A rare signing only stays rare until it works. Manzambi, owned by nobody else in the league, marked his Nordi by Nature debut with 11 points, 10 more than Szoboszlai managed in the shirt he left behind, and Andy North banked every one while the rest of the league watched through its fingers. "Enjoy it while he's ours," said fan Kevin Knight. "By Friday he'll be in every team in the league and I'll have to find something else to be smug about." All things considered it was a good 80 point gameweek for September Manager of the Month Andy North's side.

Goals, own goals, assists, clean sheets, cards, minutes and xG are from the players who counted. A captain’s goal still counts as one, and so does an own goal. Points and bonus include the captain multiplier. Bench is what the unused bench scored. Subs are the points from players who came on. Hits are the transfer deduction.

The last five gameweeks have been kind to Darren Addy's Net Six and Chill, the luckiest side in the Gert Lush Bristol FPL ML at +23.2 points per gameweek versus expected. Not kind in a vague, spiritual sense either: measurable, spreadsheet-certified kindness. The clearest exhibit was Joao Pedro, who turned gameweek 4 into a 24-point night from 7.2 expected. "Margins matter," said Gary Neville. "And Addy has had the margins turning up with flowers and a card." Still, +23.2 over the last five gameweeks leaves Addy some way from the luckiness of Woolcock over the whole season (+16.5). See the Manager Profiles section for the full breakdown.

ONE-MAN POTATOES CLIMB THE TABLE
It was Tavernier's week. The Jacquet Potatoes midfielder returned 10 points, the pick of a great 82-point week that took Rich Painter's side past FPL Beery FC, Gleedlikers, Olliempiakos, Net Six and Chill, Golden Goal FF and Food Chain FC and up to nineteenth, with the rest of the side doing their bit around him. That leaves them one point off Eze Come Eze Go. "Nice enough," said Mark Lawrenson. "10 points. I've seen better. Can't remember when, mind."

JURY STILL OUT ON HAZEL'S WILDCARD
The jury is out on Charles Hazel's wildcard and has sent out for sandwiches, with a verdict due in about four gameweeks. The evidence so far: the new squad at Yma, ten changes in all, scored 67 points this week, the one it replaced would have scored 71, and the pick of the arrivals was Calafiori, with 6.

IRN BRUNO HAVE A STINKER
Adam Ryan's Irn Bruno went to Chelsea for three of their signings, and this gameweek Rogers (2), Palmer (2) and Joao Pedro (2) managed 6 points between them, in a 53-point week for the seventeenth-placed side. The supporters want answers, and have gone straight to the source. "I've emailed Chelsea to complain," said fan Catherine McLean. "They said they don't know who we are."
