In this jam-packed Gameweek 9 First Look, Adam and Baker dive into the chaos of the Premier League and Fantasy Premier League action post-international break. From Mateta’s hat-trick heroics (and somehow underperforming his xG!) to Harry Wilson’s shot-fest, we break down the key moments, transfer hits, and FPL dilemmas that defined the weekend.

What’s Inside?

- Adam’s holiday FPL blackout and last-minute transfer panic!

- Mateta: Are budget strikers like Kroupi the new meta?

- Tactical deep dives: Why Saka is the Arsenal must-have.

Mini-league updates, shoutouts to our Patreon crew, and a nod to our sponsor, Crypto Block Dan.

Plus, we unpack the Bournemouth-Palace madness, Arsenal’s misfiring attack, and Haaland’s consistent xG grind.
