Who Got The Assist? Fpl Podcast

Sam & Tom are in to focus ahead again , as we build on last week's chat on the template shift to drill down into the key midfielder picks getting #fantasyfootball managers excited as the meta shifts again. With a focus on gearing up for blank gameweek 31, which of these - over the next 4 - do we prefer as part and parcel of our #fantasypremierleague midfield makeup? Plus in form vs fixtures, some defenders and forwards - and even goalkeeper - analysed, a contentious captaincy yet again, one week punts and our teams with one of us having already made their moves...

Sam & Tom are in recording during the final game of #fantasypremierleague #dgw26, so cheering or wincing during the stream is likely! We'll be looking ahead to #gw27, as many #fantasyfootball managers probably are after a below average double, and asking what shifts we've already seen to the template (causing the pain!) and anticipating how we'll start to gear up for the blank in 31. Plus a small outline of the chip landscape - to be discussed in more detail next week! - our form Vs fixtures keying into that, and the usual regulars, including a potentially contentious captain decision this week should Haaland be ruled fit.

Join Tom – and some voicenotes from Sam! – for a brief solo pod talking through how we did in 25 and some plans for #fantasypremierleague double gameweek 26. With most of us set for Arsenal players, eyes turn to two follow up questions: do we triple captain Gabriel? And who else do we look at this #fantasyfootball gameweek? Plus an update on one week punt and our plans for the week ahead. Short one this time. We’ll be back WEDNESDAY WEEK.

Join Sam & Tom, who'll be live as the second half of EFL semi final between Arsenal and Chelsea plays out behind them - telling us who of the two has a #fantasypremierleague double gameweek 26! As a result, we'll try to leave off definitive chat as long as possible, instead focusing on our results from #fpl gameweek 25, a transfer window roundup, and a short chat about 50/50s and a refresher on how to navigate them best with Tom in particular suffering from 4 in a row backfiring. Then it's the regulars: form Vs fixtures (as well as we can given the football), one week punts, captaincy picks and our teams. If the game went late eg to pens, there may be a q + a and a live stream vibe as we wait for the result to be confirmed! Like and subscribe to the channel if you haven't already

Sam and Tom are in slightly earlier (due to work commitments) for this week's WGTA, as we first off try to make sense of the mad events between 10:49-11:00am on Saturday morning after the leak that Haaland and Foden weren't starting for City. We chat about what we did, how we felt and ultimately how that - thankfully, now rare - event can get the goat of even the most seasoned #fantasypremierleague managers. And then it's on to the fixture swing that 24 begins, as we analyse the existing #fantasyfootball template, and chat through how we think the great runs many teams are about to embark on will see it transform. Then it's a form Vs fixtures update, one week punts, captain choice (now back on the menu!) ahead of #GW24 and look at what we're doing with our teams.

After a less than ideal weekend of #FPL, Sam and Tom are in to preview both the upcoming #fantasypremierleagye gameweek and to expand on the upcoming fixture swing highlighted last time out: which are the teams and players to keep an eye on, and why is Bruno Fernandes a must own in #fantasyfootball? Plus a form Vs fixtures based on those swings, captaincy corner - a quiet one - and one week punts before our team reveals.

The hectic festive period ends as we #fpl managers enter a period of transition between that and the fixture swing and incoming chip season to come as we come to the cusp of the business end to the #fantasyfootball season. Tom & Sam look over the potential forecast for the next little while, with Sam explaining the picture for chips and giving some possible dates and routes for us to consider. And then it's looking at midfielders as many are seeking to move on the likes of Cunha and, perhaps, Foden or Saka - do you go expensive with Palmer or across to Bruno, or downswing elsewhere? Plus a range of other players in form Vs fixtures before your usual features and then a look at our teams. If you haven't already, please like and subscribe to our feed.

Happy new year! Tom & Sam kick off WGTA 2026, returning after a couple of gameweeks within which Gabriel's return shook the #fantasyfootball template as we passed the halfway point in the season

It's the final WGTA of 2025, coming to you on a Saturday night with Tom and Sam in the midst of a hectic #fantasypremierleague - and real life! - schedule

After an eventful weekend of triple captaincy successes (not ours), an emerging Christmas saviour in Ekitike aka Palindrome and a big injury for Bruno Fernandes, Tom & Sam once more don our Christmas jumpers to try assess the fallout in our penultimate pod of 2025 ☃️ It's teams in red and players who might be in the red zone in focus this week, as we tackle both #fantasyfootball managers' conundrums: how to replace one player and buy another? And what will minutes look like for the teams over the mad period?

Sam & Tom are joined by FPL General to preview both #fantasyfootball GW17 and the upcoming late December calendar in our annual festive edition! We discuss the mad schedule in the most wonderful time of year for #fantasyfootball managers, identify the kind of player we'd like Santa Claus to leave us in our stocking, talk player photos on previews, go through the Christmas shopping list in Form Vs Fixtures, talk Haaland driving our sleigh, and finally look at where our teams are for this week.

Off the back of Bruno Fernandes magicking them a #fantasyfootball green arrow out of what was looking like a disaster, Sam and Tom are buoyed and in high spirits as we get given our 5FTs due to Afcon and wonder how to spend them

Tom & Sam reconvene midway through a #fantasyfootball gameweek to bring you another quick dip into the world of #fantasypremierleague as yet another deadline approaches. This time, we focus on potential uses for managers’ FT(s) as we encounter a fairly unique “use it or lose it” situation with them as we reach the feted Afcon Free Transfer refresh, putting managers all up to 5FTs simultaneously. Do you take a short term punt, or grab someone for the longer term? Plus best captains, a one week punt update and our team plans for GW15.

After rather successful weeks for once, Tom and Sam look ahead to GW13 with plenty of chips being played by #fantasypremierleague managers.

It's time once more to think about #fantasypremierleague as the final international break of 2025 ends with a few notable players now in doubt for GW12! Sam & Tom look over the news from the break and ask if and how #fantasyfootball managers should react, especially as, ironically, a couple of those flagged in Semenyo and Gabriel form core parts of this year's template. Then form Vs fixture looks at picks for the congested period on the horizon, it's getting closer in the one week punts and could it finally be the week to go against perma-captain Haaland?

Sam and Tom are in during the interlull (sorry we're a day late!) for a zoomed out pod diving into how the #fpl template is fitting together this campaign: is it actually as weak as we've been thinking? and might anyone break through? Plus, a look at our initial plans for #fantasypremierleague gameweek 12, with Sam especially scratching his head with 4FT to use If you enjoyed this, leave a 5-star review, say something nice if you’d like, and do subscribe to our feed – we really appreciate it, and it helps us so much!

With the 5 Free Transfers we get in GW16 on the horizon, Sam & Tom ask if it's time for #fantasypremierleague managers to be more aggressive and go shorter term with their picks

Patience Vs Proactivity | #FPL GW10 Tom and Sam discuss the value of holding onto your faltering #fantasypremierleague assets versus acting to remove them this week, as the season reaches double figures. Plus a lot of new assets added to the form Vs fixtures grid, one week punts and the best #fantasyfootball captain this weekend!

As FPL returned after international break, we’re here to assess the fallout as Haaland rolls on, Mateta bags a hattie (and could’ve had more) but others falter – and Ange is shown the door after just 39 days. First we give a mention of the dawning Dyche era at Forest and its possible fantasy football ramifications, and then it’s on to our main topic this week: has the midfield actually disappointed as some are suggesting, or is it just that Semenyo’s ridiculous performance has distorted our perception? And then in form vs fixtures, a focus on forwards and defenders – in particularly Palace and Chelsea assets, plus Big Nick Woltemade. Plus finally one week punts, a best captain chat and perhaps a quiet week for our teams with Sam having just wildcarded and Tom desperately attempting to keep his knee in check.
