FPL Lounge

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! In this review of GW12 - hopefully with all technical difficulties in the rearview mirror - the lads discuss Tottenham's dud attack, despite returns for Reguillon, a gift from Jota and how two 3-3 draws provided positives and negatives for the radar picks. 

Am EFL legend is this week's Blankety Blank, while the Top Differential is a premium asset with some of the best underlying numbers in the league. Go figure!

The jury's out on Swimming Against the Tide for a few more GWs, before finishing with captaincy and looking ahead to GW13 - unlucky for some.

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! Technical issues blight the lads again this week but, after discussing the manager merry-go-round, the radar sees a rare GK sighting along with Spurs and Palace assets with good runs coming up. There’s even room for a gamble on a striker who could benefit from the managerial switches.

A seemingly quite straight-forward tide to swim against for the lads this week – an ever-present in their thinking this season was the most transferred out player at the time of recording.

Captaincy - so obvs Mo Salah gets discussed (#originalcontent) - but with other premium assets facing weak defences maybe there are some genuine alternatives this week?

The lads then end, as ever, with a little game they like to call Who The Heck is Stat?!

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! In this review of GW11 - in lieu of GW11's Preview - the lads discuss a mixed bag for the players on the radar, with Tottenham proving dull, Chelsea lacking a clean sheet, but Jarrod Bowen proving his worth.

There's no party in Blankety Blank and Top Differential sees another West Ham attacking midfielder reward his low ownership.

Swimming Against the Tide ends with a bore-draw, before finishing with captaincy and looking ahead to a post-International Break GW12.

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! In this review of GW10 the lads consider some mixed outcomes for the players on the radar. Unknown illness for one plus multiple out of character defensive performances, for the big teams and Brentford, causing upsets.

A usual suspect appears in Blankety Blank and Top Differential sees reliable midfielders get the nod over defenders popping up out of nowhere with goals to boost their points tallies.

Neither Andy nor Chris managed to catch the other in the Honey Trap this week with ‘the field’ offering far too much resistance.

They cover off captaincy before a brief look ahead to next week including the ever-present perils of Europe for some midweek.

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! It’s a midfield bonanza on the radar this week with lots of options that have caught the lads’ eyes: almost as many as there are flagged players at the moment!

A certain team from East Anglia appear to have great fixtures coming up – but can any of their players go on the radar? And Brentford defenders get another look in too – another team with a good fixture run.

Given the lads’ agreement with so many high transferred in players this week, there’s nothing to swim against. Instead, there’s a glorious return of the Honey Trap – the lads try to entice each other to take up the challenge.

Captaincy means more Mo Salah eulogising but there do seem to be at least some alternatives for consideration this week. They finish, as ever, with a game they like to call Who The Heck Is Stat?!

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! In this review of GW9 the lads look back over their players on the radar, with mixed success for the Lukaku replacements – cheaper alternatives doing better than other premiums. And although KDB and Mane were both benched, another should-be premium City Midfielder seems to be emerging. Similar themes crop up in Blankety Blank and Top Differential and in the captaincy review they consider whether its perma-captain Salah for the foreseeable future? They end with a quick chat about injuries and how the midweek League Cup fixtures might affect things.

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! How do you solve a problem like Lukaku? That's what the lads try to answer, following the news that Chelsea's no.9 is likely to miss a few games, running through premium, budget and even midfield replacements.

They yet again swim against the tide, have a fairly simple task of running through captaincy options before finishing, as ever, with the game they like to call Who The Heck Is Stat?!

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! In this review of GW8 the lads look back over their players on the radar, with Chelsea assets underwhelming vs Brentford, with 4 blanks in a row for Lukaku although their defence held firm - if you can predict who will start. Mixed fortunes for their cheaper enablers on the radar, and the lads try (and fail) once again to come down on the keep or sell debate for Michail Antonio - who also features in Blankety Blank. Some interesting future radar candidates emerge in Top Differential, while an underwhelming Everton allows the lads to pat themselves on the back for Swimming Against the Tide before ending, as ever, with a review of captaincy and a quick look ahead to GW9.

A huge welcome back to the FPL Lounge! The lads are back to preview Gameweek 8.

An update from Andy and Chris on the FPL Lounge Podcast.

Unfortunately, due to personal circumstances, we won't be able to continue with our usual schedule of podcasts for the foreseeable future

We hope we'll be able to do the odd show, on an intermittent basis so do listen out for those. Listen to this update for further info about our plans.

Thanks for your continuing support - for a completely free, amateur show with no budget, the comments we've had over the weeks and months on Twitter and Insta really mean a lot to us and are a huge reason we continue with the show. 

We hope to be able to return to our normal schedule one day, but for now that's beyond our control.

Until next time, as ever, thanks for joining us in the FPL Lounge.
