<h2>Gameweek 29 Review</h2>
<p>What a bizarre gameweek that was! A hastily arranged double Gameweek then became a regular gameweek again due to the postponement of the Man City vs Arsenal game. For myself, it was a good gameweek, with a score of <strong>82 points</strong> meaning that I progressed from 245k to <strong>131k</strong>, my highest rank of the season! Its been a good few weeks for me, going from 317k since Gameweek 26 to now. This week was also my best Gameweek rank of the season (104k). The star of the show was undoubtedly <strong>Harvey Barnes</strong>, with a strong supporting roles from stopper <strong>Alex McCarthy</strong> and <strong>Sadio Mané</strong>. Getting <strong>Salah</strong> as vice captain for <strong>De Bruyne</strong> following the postponement felt like an overdue piece of luck, although perhaps <strong>De Bruyne</strong> could have outscored him had the game gone ahead, who knows. Here it is:</p>

<h2>The Elephant in the Room</h2>
<p>It won't have escaped your attentions that Coronavirus or Covid-19 has the world in its grip, and efforts to contain and delay its spread are already having an effect on sports, and on FPL. I have seen people say that FPL is not important in the current climate; this is true of course although, in the scheme of things, it never was, it's just a game. However, perhaps it can act as a welcome distraction from what is going on, and if we do end up having to 'self-isolate', FPL is at least something you can still do on your own in the house! This season has brought it home to me the element of luck involved in FPL - you can take steps to maximise your chances of getting good luck but, at the end of the day, many aspects are completely out of our control. This week was a classic example of this; I feel for people who had loaded up on double Gameweek players, or used a chip this week; but like my ill-fated Mané triple captaincy recently all you can do is curse your bad luck, but remember that it is just that, a game, and move on.</p>
<p>None of us knows how the rest of this season is going to pan out but here are some thoughts on how to handle this situation from an FPL viewpoint:</p>
<ul>
<li>Most readers will know that I generally advocate this anyway but, more than ever, keep your transfers until as near the deadline as you can, given the threat of further postponements, possibly at short notice</li>
<li>For a similar reason, it may be worth considering having a captain and vice captain from different fixtures and probably on different days; the longer in the future a game is, the more chance there is of something happening to make it postponed</li>
<li>It may be worth holding off on using chips, especially the Wildcard and Free Hit, as these may be even more useful in dealing with any resulting disruption</li>
<li>Again, and above all, remember that FPL is just a game, a fun game, but a game and one with an element of luck</li>
</ul>
<p>That said, until we are told differently, it's on with the show...</p>
