EPL GW-11 FPL Player Picks

With a brace in Manchester City’s win over Bournemouth, Erling Haaland punished the millions of managers who decided to captain someone else in Gameweek 10. Mohamed Salah and Jean-Philippe Mateta, who were also among the most-captained players, found the net as well, but their returns were nowhere near Haaland’s. The Norwegian reminded everyone why he […]

Don’t look now, but the Bears have one of the hottest offenses running as we enter Week 10 of the 2025 NFL season. Overall, it has been the most explosive in the league to this point. And it has me so thankful that Ben Johnson chose to coach the Bears instead of taking his talents elsewhere: the Bears offense ranks since week 3: Sack ra...
