Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for our DG25 Preview!

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for the GW23 Preview.

Barely a couple of days since the last deadline so not loads of talking points, although some key further info on Mr. Erling Braut Haaland, with his long-awaited return to action.

The radar reflects the impact of the return of one the most expensive and highly owned FPL assets ever in Haaland. The lads discuss how desperate, or not, the need is to get him back in immediately. Another striker at the other end of the price spectrum sneaks his way on as does another Man City premium player and - unusually for the lads - a guy they've got all excited about despite the numbers. Pure vibezzzz.

What's that - can I hear the bees? With very few transfers taking place yet the lads wheel out the honey traps again and try to suggest a scenario they can see happening this gameweek.

They end, as ever, with captaincy and a little game they like to call Who The Heck Is Stat?!

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge - it's been a while! - for the GW22 Preview.

Plenty of news to get listeners caught up on, including injury updates on some major FPL hitters, updates on future double and blank gamesweeks, plus a look ahead to a likely big BGW29. The lads also provide a small update on Afcon and the Asian Cup, with few FPL big hitters returning early.

The radar has a similar feel to GW21, but there is a notable addition, although the lads are unsure on his xMins in coming weeks.

Two swims against the tide in consecutive gameweeks is a real rarity this season, but the lads are back once again to oppose a player with over 200k transfers in at the time of recording. They also look ahead to this week's best captaincy picks.

And history is made when they finish, as ever, with another great round of Who The Heck Is Stat?!

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for the first gameweek of 2024, to preview this elongated GW21.

Plenty of news to get listeners caught up on, including injury updates on some major FPL hitters, the departure of others to Afcon and the Asian Cup, along with a look ahead to potential blank and double gameweeks on the horizon. As ever, the lads go through the permutations and what impact each could have on your team.

A slim but promising radar heads to the south coast for two mid-range picks, while the fringe has a familiar feel but includes a new Brazilian who may have found his shooting boots.

A rare swim against the tide this gameweek sees the lads refuse to get excited about the return to some degree of fitness for an FPL favourite, while captaincy - and the impact of having your captain feature in the second half of GW21 - is one of several points discussed.

They finish, as ever, with another great round of Who The Heck Is Stat?!

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for the final time in 2023, to Preview GW20.

Transfers few and far between with another quick turnaround so the lads opt for another shortened show, covering the essentials. Talking points include the last week to use wildcard plus Haaland news.

Some new and some remaining names on the radar, with one from last week pushing on up. A former FPL must-have comes back into the thinking after much-increased underlying numbers and with Haaland out, who from City could benefit?

No time for a tide of transfers to build so the lads move on to Captaincy - a last stand for Salah ahead of AFCON against a UCL rival? Or are there other better options?

Ho Ho Ho! Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for the final pod before Christmas - GW19, kicking off the day after the big man's been down the chimney.

In a shortened pod, and with injuries, rotation and suspensions afoot, the lads start by quickly getting you up to date on all FPL news.

The radar has a very similar feel to GW19, but a big name drops off, a hat-trick hero gets downgraded, and a new sneaky addition to the fringe might take advantage of some good upcoming fixtures.

No swimming against the tide this week, or a honey trap, so the lads move (and end) on Captaincy, assessing the risk of putting the armband on a City asset without hearing from Guardiola beforehand, especially with some other attractive options.

Ho Ho Ho! Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for the final GW before Christmas - GW18.

It's a blank GW for two teams but first the lads review the circumstances around an inadvertent BGW17, particularly unfortunate from an FPL POV from those who brough in Solanke. The lads also discuss festive rotation and the EFL Cup.

Stop what you're doing - there is a pick on the centre of the radar for the first time in what feels like forever, although he may have a familiar feel... There are also additions to the mid-range and the fringe, including two picks dubbed 'vibes'.

A festive honey trap could allow the lads to glaze their seasonal vegetables if they lure their opponent in, while there's focus on a standout captaincy option. And the little game they like to call Who The Heck is Stat?! ends with some festive drama.

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! The lads return to preview GW17.

Premium player chaos in the news this week with reports of a Haaland injury (or is there??) and the spectre of Son and Salah's departures for most of Jan, mixed in with the impending Wildcard deadline, all leaving managers with big dilemmas. The lads explain and consider the options.

City and Brentford blanking in GW18 heavily impacts fixture runs and so the radar hasn't vastly changed for the past few GWs. That said, the lads consider a move to THE CENTRE for a previously unlikely candidate, who might come into the thinking if no-Haaland is confirmed and a few more possible candidates who've crept their way onto the fringe.

The tides this week hugely influenced by blankers and suspensions so more honey traps are being laid out... will anyone ever get caught in one?!

For once, captaincy is a minefield with many options to consider even if Haaland ends up playing - but particularly so if not. The lads then finish, as ever, with a little game they like to call Who The Heck is Stat?!

Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! The lads return to preview this short-turnaround GW16.

Plenty of FPL news, particularly the injury to a high-owned Bryan Mbuemo and the continued benchings of high-owned Matty Cash, with a few other examples of rotation in GW15 too that may have left managers frustrated!

The radar has a similar feel to GW15, with the lads assessing why Solanke or Isak aren't quite hitting the centre, but there is some movement with a budget 'keeper being upgraded from the fringe to the mid-range, and a new exciting addition to the fringe. The lads also highlight and unusually tight defence if you need some defensive reinforcements.

After a bumper swimming against the tide last week, the lads return to trying catch each other in their honey traps, focusing on away wins and a league powerhouse up against a league minnow.

Just two standout captaincy options this week - and maybe only one, given the fixture - before they finish, as ever, with a little game they like to call Who the Heck is Stat?!
