Educating Pork PL · Final GW03 · 2026/27
Park the Bus
A difficult week despite the captain
Park the Bus falls from sixth to ninth after 40 points. Haaland’s 18 captain points were helpful, but the rest of the scoring XI added only 22.
Captain: Haaland · 9 × 2 = 18 points
Management: 2 transfers; no hit. No chip
This week in the league: Joint 9 of 12 on net points
Three things worth knowing
The next position
Boo Tottenham is the next team above, 8 points ahead. You lost ground to that rival by 10 net points this week.
Beyond the armband
Guéhi supplied 8 counted points outside captaincy; 6 of 12 league squads owned him.
The bigger picture
Overall rank fell by 1,073,197 places to 7,294,622.
The useful takeaway
Mitchell’s 15 stayed on the bench. The main review is the supporting XI and selection decisions, rather than blaming a captain who returned nine base points.
