Planet Fpl - The Fantasy Football Podcast

On the Sky Fantasy Football Podcast Suj and James discuss their Overhaul picks and thinking behind them... and spoiler... there's some regrets. But at least Suj remembered to do it! There's discussion on the most popular picks among the top 1000, the appeal of Kevin De Bruyne may be subject to Erling Haaland's fitness, what last night's Cup eliminations for West Ham and Brentford mean for Jarrod Bowen and Ivan Toney, learnings from the 5 weekend games, captaincy for the 3 gamedays to come and listener Qs covered.

Clayton joins James on the Podcast for discussion on FFP and the Premier League's version Profit and Sustainability (PSR), and it's fresh off the news that Everton (again!) and Nottingham Forest will be referred to an independent panel which will decide the punishment the two clubs will face. Why have the two clubs failed PSR? When will they find out their punishment? And it leads to a conversation as to whether FFP/PSR is there to protect the 'cartel' of the Big/Greedy 6 and stop those looking to break into it the upper echelons of the league from doing so.

We may only be halfway through Gameweek 21 but it's been another drama fuelled week and it began pre deadline with Suj missing Friday's deadline and wait until you hear who the captaincy is on! While for James it's been a slow start to the FPL week, but we are only halfway through. There's discussion on the 5 games played so far which saw controversy at Burnley, Cole Palmer rewarding captainers with the only goal for Chelsea against Fulham, Manchester City won a brilliant game at Newcastle, it was goalless at Goodison and Tottenham twice came from behind to earn a point at Old Trafford. But we need to talk about Kevin De Bruyne. Back with a goal and assist to help turn the game around on Saturday, can FPL managers ignore him with money in the bank and brilliant fixtures on the horizon which now includes a Double Gameweek!?

With just over 48 hours to go until the closure of the Sky Fantasy Football Overhaul Suj and James deliberate the players under consideration for selection ahead of the Friday night Burnley-Luton encounter, but should Sky managers really consider skipping the very first game after Overhaul? Every team covered, with a number ruled out of interest; there's a core 5-6 players likely to be in the majority of teams, considering how to get injured and unavailable players back in needs to be remembered, covering captaincy is discussed and James reveals his current draft.

It's the first big Chip strategy Podcast of the season as Suj and James layout a roadmap of what to expect during the second half of the season with blank and double gameweeks and the various options available for Chip strategies. There's discussion on a now 'probable' Double Gameweek 25 for Liverpool, what could happen to the unfulfilled fixtures featuring Manchester City and Bournemouth and an understanding of the blank and double gameweeks to come during the season. There's analysis of what weeks will be popular for Chip usage of the Bench Boost, Free Hit, Triple Captaincy and the second Wildcard and why working out when to Free Hit may be defining. Is there a current optimal strategy? Plus, why too much Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham could cause a major GW26 problem that may also be repeated in GW29; why the end of season doubles may be crap for Fantasy managers and the fallout from the weekend including Arsenal losing again, the fitness status of Jarrod Bowen and Erling Haaland and Tottenham's likely p

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Chelsea fan Gary Mantle and Fulham fan Dara Curran to discuss all the latest at their clubs as both prepare for Carabao Cup Semi Final 1st legs this week and Saturday's West London Derby. If Chelsea are to get themselves into contention for a Champions League place they need to find consistency and soon; can they do it? But does Saturday's game mean more for Fulham? And how confident are they following their victory over Arsenal? Plus, all the important FPL assets covered including Malo Gusto, Cole Palmer and Raul Jimenez.

On James' live stream this afternoon, further analysis on why this weekend's Cup games hold so much importance to our next FPL decisions, and that includes replacing Mo Salah and Heung-Min Son who depart for International duty ahead of an FPL gameweek that could yet, though unlikely, end up as a Double Gameweek!

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Bournemouth fan Neil Grover and Liverpool fan Dan Lord to discuss the latest at their clubs and preview the GW21 encounter on the South coast. Bournemouth have been on a terrific run under Andoni Iraola led by popular FPL pick and talisman Dominic Solanke, can they keep it going and trouble a Liverpool team that top the table but have now lost Mo Salah to AFCON? There's discussion on best FPL assets from both clubs, particularly in the midfield area, thoughts on holding or investing in Trent Alexander-Arnold long-term, GW21 captaincy, the rotation of Liverpool's forwards and lots more.

With the Overhaul now open Suj and James discuss the fixture schedule for the forthcoming months to decipher the teams Sky Fantasy managers will want to invest in for the short and long term and to cover captaincy. There's discussion on how the want for coverage of some teams eliminates the need for others and the importance of working back from the ideal Sky Fantasy team, particular if the intention is to buy back those on International duty such as Mohamed Salah and Heung-Min Son.

On the Gameweek 20 Review Suj and James discuss all the drama from the games so far and it began with Cole Palmer hauling and ended with Mo Salah hauling after missing a 1st half penalty. Elsewhere there was disappointment for Manchester United and Arsenal in defeats at Nottingham Forest and Fulham, Tottenham were 'lucky' again and Wolves dominated Everton. On the agenda for many FPL managers will now be finding replacements for departing AFCON and Asia Cup players including Mo Salah and Heung-Min Son and the Podcast has a theme of midfield replacements under consideration throughout, but also a warning of why the final decision shouldn't need to be made just yet.

It's green arrows for Suj and James on the Gameweek 19 Review but very different fortunes for their teams on a dramatic Thursday night as Brighton scored four against Tottenham at The Amex and West Ham caused a shock by winning 2-0 at Arsenal. And they weren't the only surprises this week as Chris Wood scored a stunning hat-trick in Nottingham Forest's victory at Newcastle, while Wolves were another team to score big as they scored four at Brentford and there were some surprising bonus points for offensive FPL defenders. All the games covered, including Manchester United's comeback victory against Aston Villa and Manchester City looked back to their best at Everton with Phil Foden the star of the show. And there's lots to debate ahead of tomorrow's GW20 FPL Deadline, with several great options for captaincy and some extreme benching headaches for some may lead to an activation of a number of Bench Boost chips. But there are warnings of more potential weekend rotation and notes that although GW20 may look grea

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by West Ham fan Chris Stone and Brighton fan Sam Murray to discuss all the latest at their clubs ahead of their GW20 meeting in East London and both clubs are still to play tonight in GW19. Jarrod Bowen is currently FPL's 5th highest scoring player but will the departure of Mohammed Kudus to AFCON mean Bowen moves back to the right? Should they be a concern for owners or those intending to invest? Or is he likely to be a popular captaincy choice in GW21 at Sheffield United? Brighton just wish they had players who could play wide, with Kaoru Mitoma and Simon Adingra added to a lengthy injury list. Could 4.7 midfielder Facundo Buonanotte step up or is the multi talented Pascal Gross a better investment? Could Jooa Pedro now see increased minutes in a wider role? Both teams have attractive long-term fixtures and don't play again in the Europa League until March. Enablers such as Alphonse Areola and Jan Paul Van Hecke are also covered, but both have struggled for cle

With only a week to go before The Overhaul Suj and James discuss all the latest talking points for Sky Fantasy Football and for many tonight feels like the last night to invest. And that means a final look at Chelsea and Manchester City players, but which offer the best investment? Is it too early to punt on Christopher Nkunku? What should managers do if Erling Haaland suddenly returns tonight or on Saturday? Plus, remaining captaincies discussed, Gameweek data learnings, listener questions and notes for after Overhaul, including which Salah and Sonny might need to wait until March and there will be some ugly single gamedays Tomorrow on Planet FPL: Clash of the Correspondents, West Ham v Brighton with Chris Stone and Sam Murray Today on Patreon: The Patreon Q'N'A and there's a Watchalong with James tonight from 7pm BST for all the Wednesday night football For the full Planet FPL schedule this week, including our offering on Patreon view this post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/content-dec-24th-95233013 Want t

On the Gameweek 18 Review Podcast Suj and James discuss more fun with flags as several FPL managers see their teams decimated by injuries and suspensions and for many those problems are defensively, and with cash spare in many a FPL managers bank balance Trent Alexander-Arnold is now a priority for many. But it won't be for everyone... Meanwhile Dominic Solanke netted a hat-trick at Forest, managed for the first time by Nuno Espirito Santo, Liverpool and Arsenal shared the points in the top of the table and the bottom 3, written off by many, all had great results including Sheffield United, who denied Aston Villa a place at the top of the table on Friday night. While Suj and James go into Christmas celebrating home victories for their clubs; a limp Manchester United were comfortably dispatched by West Ham, for Tottenham it was a far more difficult assignment against a revitalised Everton.

On James' live stream this afternoon there's discussion on Wildcard options for those blessed to still have the chip, notes on possible rotation over the festive period and among a varied assortment of questions there's a warning that buying back Mo Salah and Heung-Min Son when they return from international duty may not be as easy as many would think... and that's down to Blank and Double Gameweeks...

James presents the annual calendar year football quiz with 50 questions on events that happened in football, primarily featuring Premier League clubs in 2023. And Suj brings his worryingly sketchy memory for the answers to make you all feel like there is an achievable target to beat.

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Tottenham fan Ricky Saunders and Everton fan Sean Norton to discuss the latest at their clubs, including each's starving for a trophy and preview Saturday's GW18 meeting at White Hart Lane. Despite the absence of several key players, some of it self inflicted by suspensions, and a spell that saw them pick up 1 point from 5, Tottenham are 6 points off top and have 6 of the next 10 at home. The couldn't... could they...? 4 wins and 4 clean sheets on the bounce for Everton have taken them 7 points clear of the drop zone and without the ten point deduction Everton would actually be ninth. They now want their points back so they can challenge for Europe! There's lots of Fantasy discussion, including Son's positioning on the left and whether he should be captained this week by FPL managers. Pedro Porro is proving popular and so now is Richarlison after 3 goals in 2, but would Dejan Kulusevski or Brennan Johnson be a better bet? Plus, Everton defensive assets will no
