Planet FPL - The Fantasy Football Podcast

Suj and James discuss the fallout of Gameweek 18 and a weekend that saw only four of the 10 fixtures go ahead. There's extended detail on those fixtures as Arsenal and Man City romped to victory away from home, Wolves and Chelsea ended in stalemate and there's a very detailed analysis of the thrilling 2-2 between Tottenham and Liverpool with tactical insight and coverage of the controversial refereeing decisions.

Plus, Gameweek 20 could be postponed with belief growing that Premier League clubs would like to delay the Gameweek until the New Year. What is the impact to FPL if this is the case? It could lead to FPL's biggest ever Gameweek and it may arrive sooner than we think...!

Coming Up on Tuesday on Planet FPL - The People's Poll Podcast, pick from these topics on Twitter up until around 6pm (UK) time via this tweet https://twitter.com/PlanetFPLPod/status/1472903783390879745?s=20

Both James and Suj are now on Wildcard ahead of today's Gameweek 16 deadline and on this Podcast reveal what is likely to be - subject to this afternoon's team news - their final Wildcard selections.

For James he's been active on Wildcard since Saturday evening and bar one or two spots has a clear idea of what he wants to do with only a couple of spots open for a debate and he explains his plan moving forward in forthcoming weeks.

While for Suj, the Brighton-Tottenham postponement and other injury issues has forced a Wildcard activation, but there aren't that many changes from his original squad...

Still to come today on the Planet #FPL YouTube channel, James presents The GW16 Deadline Stream Live at 530pm (UK)

On this week's Planet FPL Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Crystal Palace fan Migtavius and Everton fan Sean Norton to discuss all the latest at their clubs, the FPL assets within them and preview Sunday's Gameweek 16 meeting at Selhurst Park.

Palace come into the fixture following three straight defeats. A blip or is there more to the run of defeats? With a brilliant run of fixtures to come several Palace players will be under consideration for FPL managers and there's analysis of the likes of Vicente Guaita, Conor Gallagher and Wilfried Zaha.

While Everton have been having a torrid time, Director of Football Marcel Brands has departed and many fans are unhappy with manager Rafael Benitez. Is his tenure doomed to fail or was Monday's victory over Arsenal a turning point?

Last week the public prosecutor's office in Turin issued a warrant to search the premises of Juventus Football Club as part of an on going investigation into false accounting and there is some speculation that Juventus could even be demoted to Serie B. Is the case that strong and what have they done wrong?

Suj and James look into some of the transfers under the microscope not just at Juventus, but also at other clubs, including one ridiculous exchange of players case that doesn't add up and we discuss how clubs are using amortisation in accounting to pass FFP requirements.

Coming Up on Wednesday on Planet FPL - Planet SkyFF s3 ep18, discussing all the latest in Sky Fantasy Football.
