FPL community,
I'm lucky enough to have spoken to these legends who have an unreal OR currently, and they are happy for me to share their knowledge / reasoning why they believe they're doing so well.

@FionnHayes3 "Having only joined Twitter fpl and YouTube halfway last season which I owe to my rank to be fair, @LetsTalk_FPL and @Capkin_FPL were my first two I found helpful, aswell as using @BenCrellin for a lot of useful FPL info.
I haven't taken any hits so far this season and last season only used 2 max finished at 27k OR. I've kept faith in majority of my premiums, owned Salah all season and only recently transferred out Son and Kane.Nowadays, I've kind of stepped back and done what I think is right.
My current rank I put down to a bit of luck with a good bench, the right captain choices and just an overall thought of going with what I think is right. Even if a player is the most captained, I did it cos of my thought, not the herd mentality.
Advice would be to stick to your own feeling, donât chase points, and get those benches working! I used my WC in gw10 and it was to great effect."
@FplTexan = "Current rank is 240. This is my first full season of FPL. I joined around GW10 of last season 
, but played NFL and NBA fantasy for 10ish years. I have taken 5 hits this season.I have kept faith in the premium players this season,

With the exception I I transferred out KDB 3 times this season. I look at statistics on sites such as Understat and Sofascore, I also watch as many games as I can. I think the main reason for my high rank is the right captain selection and sticking with my gut instead of twitter.
My advice for people going forward is to not give up because it's not going well, I've seen people fly up the ranks in a couple of GWS. Also even tho it can be challenging, stick to what you think is best and dont make rash decisions, I used my wildcard GW 3".
Conclusion = Obviously still early days for them both but hopefully this information can help you going forward,
As you can see not many hits have been taken and they have kept faith in their premium players, not just transferring them out because of one or two blanks as you

Will be quickly wanting them back.
They also stated regarding twitter herd mentality to try and stick with your own decisions and not being influenced by twitter noise. Having a bench that plays is also important especially given the uncertainty that Covid is causing.

They both also mentioned captain decisions have played a big part looking at their teams they haven't taken any unnecessary risks with that.
