Planet Fpl - The Fantasy Football Podcast

It's the final week before Overhaul in Sky Fantasy Football and the advice is to sit tight until the weekend has passed. With the transfer window still open & big transfers still likely Suj & James are trying to avoid thinking too far ahead. Are Michail Antonio and Bruno Fernandes the obvious captaincy selections for the two gamedays days this weekend? A host of Twitter questions answered, why rank shouldn't mean too much at this stage, pros and cons of our GW1 selections, if 'anything' could make us use a transfer this week, why two fixtures after Overhaul could still change date, attacking mids v defensive mids & and plenty more...

There is a potential problem on the horizon for FPL managers with current government legislation stating that individuals returning from red list countries must quarantine and with internationals following this weekend that means many star name could miss GW4 and possibly even GW5. Suj & James investigate which players could be affected, if clubs can deny their players leaving for international duty and why there could yet be exemptions provided for players... but even if there are exemptions South American stars could still miss out... Plus, last night's brilliant win for West Ham against Leicester is reviewed - is Antonio now the standout captaincy option in GW4?

On the first Clash of the Correspondents of the new season James is joined by Matt Samuel and Gary Robinson to preview Sunday's GW2 clash at St Mary's between Southampton & Man Utd. Can the Saints stop leaking goals? Defensive issues remain a concern and it only adds to the appeal of United's Bruno Fernandes who is buzzing following an opening weekend hat-trick against Leeds. Is Bruno now the best captaincy option this weekend...? Plus, there's a deeper dig into the squads... Is 4.0 Valentino Livramento now the first choice Southampton right-back? Can Adam Armstrong score enough goals to help push Saints up the table? Are there rotation concerns ahead for the likes of Mason Greenwood? And what now for Paul Pogba? Is he likely to stay part of an attacking front four for United?

Suj & James assess the fallout from their first weekend in Sky Fantasy Football, if there were any regrets from their opening selections and transfer/captaincy plans for the weekend. Mo Salah to Heung-Min Son is looking a popular move on Sunday, will Suj & James be making the move. Plus, replacements considered for Ilkay Gundogan and lessons learned from the opening weekend including some interesting notes on those that hit passing tiers, the problem with attacking enablers and why it's not worth ever engaging with the Sky Fantasy Football social media account...

On this Podcast, Suj & James take a more detailed look at defensive budget enablers in FPL following the opening Gameweek and ponder best options, not necessarily for now, but in the weeks to come as FPL managers may be looking for value to help fit an extra premium player in their teams. There's an assessment of all the 4.0 defenders and two stand out as options to keep an eye on in the coming weeks and the 4.5 assets under consideration are discussed, but are there less players of interest than the original pricing had suggested there might be...?  Join our Planet FPL mini league, the winner will be invited on to a Planet FPL Podcast next summer!

We've made it to the end of Correspondent Week! And on the final Podcast Suj & James are joined by Tom Medd to get all the detail on the Premier League's newest addition Brentford. Ivan Toney is proving very popular for FPL managers and appeals at 6.5 with a good opening and he's a likely shoe-in for Tom's team, but is he the only Brentford player of interest? Tom takes us through details on the squad, what we can expect from the new signings and who he expects to start for The Bees for their opening night fixture against Arsenal...

The final Day of Correspondent Week begins with Dan Lord joining Suj & James to talk all things Liverpool as The Reds aim to win back the Premier League. And they will be boosted by the return of Virgil Van Dijk but will the towering Dutchman start in GW1? And going forward who is most likely to partner Van Dijk? Mo Salah is likely to be heavily backed and captain for many in GW1, but is there any case to go with Sadio Mane instead? And does Diogo Jota offer a great early season option at only 7.5? And we're back to the Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson debate... can James bear to go without both...?

Ted Maw is Suj & James' guest on the final Day 6 Podcast of Correspondent Week to discuss all things Chelsea at a time when it is looking creasing likely that Romelu Lukaku might return to the club. Does Lukaku make Chelsea title contenders? Are they expected to challenge even without him? Ted explains the difficulty in predicting Chelsea's opening weekend line-up and with Crystal Palace at home there is a will from many to punt a Blues player or two in FPL, but is it worth it with a very difficult looking spell after the opening game? The ridiculous squad depth is assessed, why from GW7 it may be all-in on Chelsea assets and there's also a discussion on the academy and why some of The Blues brightest youngsters are leaving the club...

Suj & James welcome Leicester City correspondent Aaron Lagor onto the Podcast ahead of the Foxes trip to Wembley for the Community Shield and the build up has been disrupted by an injury to one of their brightest prospects. Wesley Fofana was set to be a big part of the discussion but a serious injury suffered on Wednesday night looks likely to rule him out until 2022 and with Jonny Evans also doubtful for GW1 there's suddenly concern about The Foxes defensively. But has the appeal of Kasper Schmeichel, Caglar Soyuncu or the full backs increased because of it? Are players linked away likely to stay? Is Harvey Barnes back up to fitness to offer FPL mangers an exciting mid price option with attractive opening fixtures? And there's a discussion about the system and it looks like Leicester could be reverting to a back four, which could be bad news for one of the forwards, but good news for another...

Suj & James kick off Day 6 of Correspondent Week by welcoming Norwich City Correspondent Mark Hammond to discuss The Canaries hopes of staying up and FPL enablers. Norwich start with a brutal start of Liverpool, Man City, Leicester & Arsenal... surely we can't start with any of their FPL assets... well it takes Mark 5 minutes to get Suj & James very interested in one particular player and it becomes clear during the Podcast that there are a number of budget players who should be considered despite the daunting start and there is an encouraging run of fixtures after the difficult start. Will The Canaries be better than their previous campaign in the Premier League? They might be, but will it be enough to survive? And will Mark captain Mo Salah against The Canaries in GW1?

Sam Murray joins Suj & James to discuss his club Brighton & Hove Albion and a host of cheap attractive FPL assets that could perform very well this season. And they have excellent opening fixtures... Is Robert Sanchez the go-to 4.5 goalkeeper? Is Yves Bissouma the stand out 4.5 midfielder? There's discussion on 4.5s Adam Webster, Joel Veltman and if Lewis Dunk at 5.0 is worth paying extra for, what system Brighton are likely to deploy, if any of the attacking players are worth considering and new signing Enock Mwepu attracts comparisons with an FPL legend...

New Aston Villa correspondent Lee Jackson makes his Planet FPL debut alongside Suj & James to discuss his club Aston Villa and he ends up having to pull double duty...! ...That's because only hours after recorded was completed Villa announced the signing of Danny Ings out of nowhere. At the end of the Podcast Lee rejoins James to give updated thoughts following the signing of Ings and the impact on popular forward Ollie Watkins. Make sure you stick around until the end! Plus, at first glance Emi Martinez, hero for many FPL managers looks expensive at 5.5 at first glance, but his ownership is high but he may be worth paying for again. New signings Emi Buendia and Leon Bailey, both 6.5 are covered and should be of interest in FPL, there's thoughts on Jack Grealish's move to Manchester City and Lee details Villa's likely starting line-up and there's a warning on one of Villa's defenders...
