PALMER INJURED? ⚠️ | MY FPL GAMEWEEK 22 FINAL DEADLINE DECISIONS | Fantasy Premier League 2024/25

[@schzam2604]

Watching from a hospital bed, op went well, just a few hic cups lol. Such a benching headache this week, 40mins of Ross will made my mood better, thanks for the stream mate

[@FPLRaptor]

Big love mate, thinking of you! Glad the video can help a bit 🙌🏼❤️

[@DanielShaneWalton]

Get well soon

[@ImmortalTreknique]

Get well soon 💪👊

[@lasmudge424]

Onward and upwards 💪🏻

[@arnold7365]

Quick recovery mate

[@kristianpavlic]

Came for FPL, got droped some life knowledge. Solid content, bro.

[@FPLRaptor]

Hahaha thank you bro, appreciate it!

[@willpierce2211]

Absolutely impressed by the staying positive section. FPL hasn’t really been bothering me, but all of that advice is so useful for anything else in life, so I’m glad I watched its entirety. And the fact that section was given the most time is great, more people would appreciate it more than they realise.

[@FPLRaptor]

Thank you so much, appreciate you watching and commenting!

[@azaro12]

Good advice on the mental health issue, thanks for doing it. One element that maybe hard to process when FPL just seems to go against one maybe the competitiveness of mini leagues which may put one under the stress of looking foolish, getting a lot of flak, feeling inadequate among ones' peers, etc.

[@BeauBagley-os5ob]

All you can do is keep grinding and optimizing the best you can and hopefully be the one making your friends sweat with your performances. That’s how I’m dealing with it, I’m up for a challenge of digging myself out of a massive hole that bad luck and poor decision making earlier put me in. 750k rank rise GW21 for me, if I string together a few fat rank rises, I’m in business. Have fun and continue to hunt that’s all we can do at the end of the day

[@MrSkateroli]

The mental health section was BRILLIANT Ross! Thank you so much! Such wisdom...great practical advice!

[@JLGGaming]

I love it how you always apologize for someone shouting outside when we can never hear it on the mic 🤣😂

[@dalehas2]

So true ... I've never heard any of the noises you apologise for

[@JoeKennedy-z5t]

Liked your talk about mental health so much I subscribed. Kudos!

[@tesp007]

I love the mental health section. Thank you 🙏 It’s so relevant to why we get so involved with FPL. It’s so hard to not let it effect you when you dedicate so much time to it. You’d think it would become easier the longer you’ve been playing but I can honestly say it gets worse 😂. My 73 year old dad has been playing for 19 seasons like me… he generally comes last every season, takes risks and laughs at himself. All your tips are really good - tip 7 is definitely the hardest… but so important 🙏.

[@FPLRaptor]

Big love!

[@tomoconnell2727]

there are a lot of content creators, and - yes - i watch a bunch of them, but i don't get from them the inspiration that i get from you, thank you. i am so glad that you don't 'just' talk about the numbers or the templates, but also address how to 1) have fun with FPL and 2) stay emotionally healthy doing so. you keep this grounded and fun, much needed in this endeavour... again, thank you.

[@FPLRaptor]

Thank you so much mate, that his great to hear!

[@juksu]

I really enjoyd your insights about mental healt. Like you said there’s been a positive shift from not talking about anything around it to the point where everyone is suddenly more open about their feelings and wellbeing. That being said, you seem like a guy who’d be a great motivator for anyone feeling depressed so it’s kind of sad that being a content creator here in KZbin seems to be more profitable (and maybe less stressfull if you’re like me who likes to bring work to home after 5PM) for you than being a fulltime psychology professional. Not that I’d know anything about what else you do besides these awesome FPL videos but I assume these take alot of your time. All the best and keep this content flowing mate!

[@arc-system-for-dads]

Ross, I loved the section on mental health issues, it's such an important topic to highlight! So many of us use FPL as an escape from our everyday problems...and it's a shame when the game we love starts to impact the things that are really important in our lives: family & friends. Keep raising the awareness 👊🏻❤

[@darshnshah2002]

Thank you Ross on lecture on how to stay positive. I support United and the way things are going, this really helps. Looking forward to more of such content. Cheers❤

[@ashleycurzon8697]

Its a subject that so many people struggle to talk about but somewhere like this FPL community is a great place to do it as your normally more open and relaxed when doing something that is fun!! Ross its nice to see its not just our teams you care about but us as people!! Thank you so much!! Much love ❤️

[@danielstephenson709]

Very rarely comment on any videos, but just had to say what a fantastic section on mental health. It really nicely puts things into perspective for FPL and life in general. Your content into the psychological side of FPL is always brilliant and this is a wonderful idea to include for the community. Thank you Ross.

[@FPLRaptor]

Thank you so much!

[@sethryan8393]

Thank you for the staying positive section I really enjoyed it ✌️

[@Giraffe972]

I like the way you used the isaks shirt badge to fit the graphic 🤝

[@FPLRaptor]

Hehe it's the little things!

[@seefoghall]

For many, it's not just a game, it's a passion. It's so annoying when people on their ivory thrones put down those of us who enjoy things in life.

[@Cedisdead]

Also me owning Amad... :)

[@jast4089]

Hey Ross, great piece on the mental health. I ditched FPL 7 years ago because of the worsening negative effects of a bad GW. Many of the mechanisms you spoke about have been working great for me on this first season back. Especially not getting worked up by thing out of our control. A deep squad is great to cover injuries/tough GW's but man does it make benching difficult. GW22 Start XI - Sels, Aina, Robinson, TAA, Gabriel, Salah, Palmer, Gordon, Raul, Isak, Wood. Bench: Henderson, Hall, Mbeumo, Sarr. 1.8m ITB - Plan to roll this week.

[@Mirkhudayev]

As a psychology student myself, I loved the last part of the video so much! Never I would thought I see this on this channel but I loved how you spent some extra time to help people out here. Maybe I can give another tip that I do myself. When I see things did not go as planned (almost every gw since fpl is really unpredictable lol) I think about beginning of the week where I built my squad on pretty much rational choices and I say yeah it made sense back then so I did the best I could. It gives me relief for some instance and then I check other friends of mine or other creators squads and I see also for them things could be better. Knowing you are not alone is helpful too.

[@Volfox72]

Keep it up Ross. Amazing video ❤

[@FPLRaptor]

Thank you!

[@ksmon3052]

I love these mental talks! It helps with everyday life also 😊 thanks!

[@vladasbarto]

Ross, great content! And it's excellent that you talk about mental health! I'm becoming more and more yours fan.

[@lukeyboy1237]

Thanks for the double upload day Ross 👍

[@FPLRaptor]

Thanks for watching as always mate!

[@lukeyboy1237]

Great section at the end too mate. Thank you!

[@SeyeneEtok-qf7uj]

I think the how to stay positive session was more important than the FPL session, thanks a lot, a lot of information dished out ❤

[@DamianBuczma41]

I like how you handle this season, so much better than last. Stay positive! You all do!

[@jpjordan90]

Big props to you Raptor for the mental health section. Never ever heard that on an FPL vid. Respect to your for using your expertise and your audience reach to get some important messages out there.

[@prmntl777]

Ty for speaking about mental health, u the best content creator out there❤

[@liamjones5532]

I started your second most recent video 2 hours ago whilst doing things around the house, meaning I was pausing every now and again. Just finished it refreshed KZbin to see you’ve done another video. I don’t know wether to laugh or cry😂

[@JoshC_mufc]

Loved the mental health part of the video Ross. Will definitely help a lot of people

[@FPLRaptor]

Thank you, I appreciate that!

[@samihamra9870]

Great stream my friend, and amazing part about the mental health! In a VERY worried way I feel FPL mirrors my other parts of life, multiple seasons now where work / personal life on top so does FPL, and when everything going against so does FPL! Maybe it’s murphys low, desperation leading to bad calls in FPL or just in my head, but this season the same, the last 2 months have been tough, so did damn FPL, from 38K to 600k in very few weeks! 😭😂🤦🏽‍♂️ New round, new possibilities tho, good luck ya all! Hehehe

[@davehannigan1788]

Great section on MH and FPL. Have worked face to face with people struggling with MH issues for years, and I just wanted to say 👏🏼 well done sir, some great advice there. Keep using the platform for this I say 👍🏼

[@raymondlenaghan3320]

Thanks Raptor for the mental health section. Meaningful advice for sure. We all love the game of FPL but so good to see this section woven into your video. Nice one.

[@dalehas2]

Psychology section was excellent ... concise & relevant advice in 7 easy to understand points. We should always remember that FPL is a game to be enjoyed ⚽🌟😊 For me the best thing about FPL is it expands your interest to all teams. Instead of just supporting your favourite team (Liverpool for me), you become interested in players from all teams - players you have in your FPL team, and teams you target to score points against. You become a Premier League fan, not just a one eyed, one team supporter.

[@TonyGallagher_]

Hey Ross .. Absolutely loved the mental health section.. massively helpful and much appreciated Cheers dude Tony

[@nashvirsingh3589]

The how to stay positive section is so powerful and gave me a new perspective on a lot. Legend Ross!

[@jordanbuck8126]

Love the staying positive section! Big respect

[@edwards1492]

The stay positive section was superb, very well done mate 👏🏼

[@gyatshotamang4947]

love the content on the mental health boss!!! this is what separates you from the others !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for everything !

[@FPLRaptor]

Big love mate, thank you!

[@morra123]

Thanks for the "staying positive" section, really needed that after last week

[@SombhooG-xd4bq]

Loved the mental health discussion. Puts the game in context. Thanks

[@zqba009b]

Really enjoy the how to stay positive section. Thanks for including. Great tips. Hope everyone has the strength to use them when they need it.

[@FPLRaptor]

Big love mate!

[@UltraBlueForever]

Mental health's section is very good. Very good advices regardless of whether fpl has an influence on your life. Keep going and cheers from Bulgaria 🍻

[@georgemichaelides2336]

Staying positive section probably the best FPL piece of content I've watched - fantastic. Well done Ross! I could easily rewatch that after every red arrow

[@FPLRaptor]

Thanks mate!

[@SuperLarson777]

The mental heath section was class Ross. I am one of the lucky ones who can switch off anxieties at the click of a finger my partner gets stuck in a loop of negativity. Now, where she has no interest in FPL, i think shell find that section useful.

[@kersankistan3461]

Loved the psychology bit. Thanks Ross!

[@TomsIRL]

Loved this episode. Good on you Ross for sharing your knowledge on mental health

[@DiscoverWithSim]

I think what get brushed over by quite a lot generally by players, is in the situation of Palmer, keep a focus on your auto-subs and bench. Game changing

[@345AMGAMING]

Thank you raptor for the amazing advice ❤️

[@babyGZIP]

thank you for a great "... few minutes on mental health" -- really refreshing and helpful to hear this perspective. these tools are powerful

[@apexbaines9014]

Wood doesn’t GO massive Wood IS massive! 🌳

[@NathanMellows-uj8mp]

Love this mate. Really helpful. The combination of my team Spurs losing to Arsenal & Amad hauling certainly has been problematic, but I actually made a decision this morning that my clients came first & being fully present was key. However, my long term Arsenal client certainly didn’t help when he eagerly arrived to his session today 🤣 Appreciate your work 👌

[@cheekster777]

Thanks Ross.

[@ImmortalTreknique]

😊💪👊🖖🍻

[@cheekster777]

@ 👊🏻

[@batajohn]

Brilliant video Raptor! Mental health segment was top notch. Thank you for sharing you psychology knowledge and expertise.

[@ahmeda7816]

Great mental health segment! I am pretty sure many people would benefit from these sound tips.

[@trinigodblessyouth4964]

I absolutely respect this Mental Health tips Ross ..Big respect too you mate

[@Dubplatespecial]

Beautiful content mate. Mental health section was on point 👏🏽 Would anyone suggest taking a -4 to put Gordon in for Enzo? Haven’t taken any hits this season but sorely tempted by this!

[@RaulRatcliffe06]

Great vid Ross 💫thank you

[@Paul_425]

Imo for mental health in fpl, I get excited with setting up the team per gameweek. Often times poor experiences in fpl are because I have an expected outcome. So now I just put my team together out of excitement, without any expectations. Last gameweek is a good example. I transferred foden out for bruno and foden scored a brace. Leaving me with a red arrow. Then the united game happened, and it just so happens I had Amad who scored a hattrick which propelled me to a green arrow 😅 Moments like that are special and exciting. I'm certain if I had a certain outcome my experience would have been downplayed. Just go I to fpl without expectations but follow your excitement when it comes to building your team. And watch the universe unfold. 😅

[@robbenstein]

Mental health section was brilliant 🌟 🙌

[@petermulligan6856]

Great mental health section mate 👍

[@FPLRaptor]

Thanks!

[@californiaplant-basedeater2761]

1. If you go by the data, Joao Pedro looks bad. 2. If you go by the eye test, Joao Pedro looks bad. Therefore, start Joao Pedro over the guy that both just scored a hat trick and also looks good on the eye test, and also is playing at home.

[@Matallica01]

Excellent stay positive section

[@GhufranMahmood-l2h]

❤❤❤ for the mental health section

[@JohnBarwood-n4y]

Gabriel has watched the stream and saw where you put him on the list - he will now go score a couple of bullet headers 😂

[@FPLRaptor]

I hope so!

[@paulyyy29]

Ross would you start Cuccurella or Timber?? I am leaning towards Cucc! Cheers!

[@mojodanslabiblioteque]

Respect raptor- I didn’t get enough A levels to study psychology or humanities - well none - I know who Maslow is though ❤

[@luxlight3754]

I get what you say, bit Iwobi's crosses weren't bad!

[@ianmason3372]

Credit to you for looking at mental health impact, goes way beyond this game.

[@ztruth2525]

.FPL has helped me with the football experience, mentaly. Instead of hating players or teams (because they won over my team) I now invest in most of them.

[@tervkeh3426]

I don’t think I’ve ever heard any background noise on any video. Better mic than harry

[@Nittigrader]

I am wondering if the opponent xGC rank number is based on home and away fixtures combined, and if it’s possible to could be filtered to the number relevant for that specific fixture instead. For example maybe wolves is 12th with numbers combined; strong at home but abysmal away or vice versa. That would also be relevant when choosing a captain where Palmer’s opponent is at H and Salah’s is at A. 😄

[@jamiehewitt2513]

Hope you’re doing okay Ross ❤

[@HKHughee]

Would you start Semenyo or J Pedro Ross?

[@BeauBagley-os5ob]

We all want to do well and beat our friends in our MLs and do the best we can in the worldwide rankings. But worst case you lose some cash in your ML and don’t hit the heights you’re hunting in the OR battle. Keep doing your best and plugging away and have fun fam. Not the end of the world in the worst case and hopefully we all kick some ass in our MLs at least. Best of luck everyone!

[@Yotee]

is neco williams nailed/a good option? feel like its a cheap route into the forest defence which i currently dont have, thanks ross

[@steveGynwa]

Now that Sarr is doubtful. Would you start Saliba instead? Or just buy Amad? Already have Gabriel.

[@rossurquhart7209]

Hey Ross, fellow Ross here with a benching dilemma…. Would you rather start Cunha or Diaz this week? Cheers!

[@cosmic66.]

Amad scored against Brighton last time they met, and they seem to have a habit of conceding from the right hand side. For that reason I’m playing Amad over Pedro, but either could be good. Pedro just hasn’t had the best form despite returning in 2 of the last 3, but he did knick a last minute winner against United in August. It’s a toss-up, I could see both blanking or even both returning this week.

[@TomtheFish-w8d]

Hi Ross. Thanks for your video as always. I went early on getting Enzo in as an enabler for triple Liverpool. Do I bench him and play either Lewis or Cunha? Appreciate your opinion mate.

[@ishaanhall78]

4 free transfers. How do we feel about Trent to konate in order to do Joao Pedro to wood?

[@MightyMacca74]

Would you bother doing Davis to Hall for free even though it is very luxury

[@lukereschke8273]

Hey mate, thoughts on transferring out Jackson and Gabriel for Trent and Gakpo with my 2 FT? It’s my last arsenal defender so a little hesitant but I’d like to get in on the DGW cheers

[@finbarralvan6218]

I have Wood, Isak and Gabriel Jesus, who do you recommend I replace Jesus as a long term option?

[@ogbaemeka6682]

Play two strikers, get another midfielder

[@Spectzit]

Do I start Luis Diaz (Brentford away) or Murillo (Southampton home) PLEASE HELL FOR WHO TO START?

[@MightyMacca74]

Murillo-Diaz may be ill and faces frequent rotation and forest are good defence

[@Helldiver_87]

Thoughts on Colwill to Anderson and Strand Larson to Pedro?

[@rickfyandrade4472]

Bench Gabriel or Munoz?

[@bluersheehy1935]

Don't forget guys it's only a game have fun

[@seefoghall]

You are forgetting Bournemouth have like 13 injured players.

[@emanuel6693]

didnt stop them vs chelsea

[@seefoghall]

@emanuel6693 yeah, Chelsea .. Lol

[@James-xm3ex]

Have faith in the cherries bro. My lads

[@sj_fpl_]

FPL and Premier League are the only two things that makes me smile.

[@trinigodblessyouth4964]

Wellbeck has been good for me this season..He absolutely loves too score vs Man united...if he only scord or assist i am bringing him right in...Jao Pedro actually plays better when wellbeck playing

[@Sidd-YouTube]

Broooo... 70k to 170k last GW... Thanks for the "stay positive with FPL" section :)

[@oliverthedapperbritishgent6973]

Should I start Palmer & Sarr or Joao Pedro & Rogers?

[@sondreryksund2140]

TC in GW24, or is there any other obvious gw's to use it?

[@kareemattia4455]

Where are Man city defenders (Gvardiol) in the benching order?

[@hmqlegend5674]

good evening Ross, I stupidly transferred in mateta whilst I probably should have waited. Leaves me in a situation where I want mbeumo for enzo and only way to do that is raya to dubravka/jose sa/random keeper. Or Gabriel to konate. What would you do? This is because enzo is going to drop tonight so I need to decide really quickly

[@AnimalWorld-hg1gl]

Start Myko or Rogers Rap?

[@Mr.KD_007]

I have 2 ft Should I simply go for Johnson to Gordon and sarr/semenyo to a 4.9m mid this GW or should I use 1 ft this week Johnson to Amad and on Gw 23 go for Sarr/Semenyo to Gordon and Nickolas Jackson to Gakpo?

[@MightyMacca74]

GW23

[@deyo7s]

So maresco said Cole was doubtful, why do we not take him at his word? Or am I misunderstanding the word "doubt"

[@leefisher]

Good video. Where is Semenyo on list. Is he ahead of Mbeumo?

[@FPLRaptor]

Oops missed him! Probably just below Mbeumo for me

[@markhallsworth4111]

Hey Ross
