Planet FPL - The Fantasy Football Podcast

Following the FA Cup 5th round weekend it's all change again on the outlook for future blanks and doubles in FPL. Clayton joins James for a discussion on how to play Chips during Chip season with a stark warning from James: "You're all f*****"

With many of the favourites out of the FA Cup the competition looks wide open and that creates complications for what can happen. There's discussion on the projected blanks and doubles now but with references for why certain things can and can not happen, with concern that we could still be in for some unexpected scheduling.

There's discussion on all the chips and when best might be to use them, with awareness of the potential hinderances of some of the more powerful chips as such as the Bench Boost and Assistant Manager. Alternatives are given including a radical potential path for those who may have all their chips left.

But not all is lost for those who are short with James of the belief that he can navigate the doubles of 33 and blanks of 34 without a chip... and that's because the predicted doubles may not be as kind as they appear on paper.

It's a Championship Clash of the Correspondents as James catches up with Burnley fan Jack Toner and Luton Town fan Dan Ashby to discuss veryt differing fortunes for two clubs who were in the Premier League last season.

Burnley are third with promotion in sight and have a barely believable defensive record having only conceded 9 goals in 34 league games. But do the underlying numbers suggest this is unsustainable? Are Burnley fans in support of what Scott Parker is trying to do?

Meanwhile Luton are 3rd from bottom and would have been 24th if not for Saturday's win against Portsmouth. It was a first win in 9 for new manager Matt Bloomfield who replaced Rob Edwards in January. Why has it gone so wrong for The Hatters?

There's an overview of both the relegation and promotion race and discussion on the increasing difficult task of getting into the Premier League and staying there.#

James is joined by Clayton on the Gameweek Review Podcast to discuss the events of the midweek of Gameweek 27 where somehow, those who gambled on Cole Palmer with the captaincy were not rewarded... but it didn't matter that much anyway.

So Palmer again in 28 with an insipid Leicester next? Maybe not with Mo Salah facing Southampton, or could The Reds rotate with the fixture falling in between their Champions League games with PSG?

All the games covered including Arsenal drawing blanks again at Forest and Man City seeing off Tottenham in a game of two halves at White Hart Lane where Erling Haaland registered the only goal.

Is there a case to take Salah on with the big Norweigian from Gameweek 29 onwards? Perhaps so, and there is plenty of discussion around the Blank of Gameweek 29 and how to manage players subject to chosen strategy, with key assets from the likes of City, Bournemouth, Palace and Wolves all covered in detail.

Ahead of today's GW27 Deadline James is joined on Clash of the Correspondents by Manchester United fan Gary Robinson and Ipswich Town fan Paul Gaught-Allen to discuss current matters at their clubs ahead of Wednesday's meeting at Old Trafford.

Can Ipswich yet pull off an escape from the relegation zone? They find themselves five points adrift of Wolves and with no one else within sight.

Ipswich's plight means Manchester United can feel safe. Yes, really it has looked that bad at times recently. Ruben Amorim still hasn't won more points than Erik Ten Hag in this campaign and there are several cost cutting measures taking place behind the scenes and PSR is likely to restrict them in the transfer market in the summer.

So where do United go from here? Investing in someone like Ipswich's Liam Delap doesn't even seem like a realistic prospect currently.

And should there be interest in these two clubs for Fantasy managers? Ipswich have Delap and some enablers that could prove useful, Whilst United head into this encounter and also face fellow strugglers Leicester in the Blank of Gameweek 29. But can they be trusted?

Later on Planet FPL: James presents The GW27 Deadline Stream Live, in partnership with FPL Team, exclusively on the Planet FPL YouTube Channel at 5pm GMT

Suj and James review all the football from Gameweek 26 with Liverpool now huge favourites for the title, as victory at Manchester City followed Arsenal's defeat to West Ham, and Wolves too a huge step to safety with victory at ten man Bournemouth. Whilst there was FPL controversy before the football even began with FPL missing their own deadline, meaning they've now missed more deadlines this season than Suj!

There was more success for many who chased bonus with the Assistant Manager Chip, there's discussion on what next for those who still have the Chip active and this midweek's captaincy dilemma of Cole Palmer, who has hapless Southampton, or Mo Salah, who now has more points in away games than any other player has in all games, following yet another double digit return.

There's coverage of transfer plans with decisions made and differentials targeted, plus analysis of all the games as usual, including Brentford cruising to victory at Leicester, healing Tottenham winning again and the 7 goal thriller between Newcastle and Nottingham Forest.

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Fulham fan Lewis James and Crystal Palace fan Ruaidhri McLoughlin-Dowd to discuss the latest at their clubs and some very important FPL assets ahead of Saturday's meeting at Craven Cottage.

And by assets that doesn't just mean the players as Eagles boss Oliver Glasner is likely to be popular for Assistant Manager bonus point hunters and for those yet to deploy the Chip again he'll no doubt attract interest around GW32 when Palace double.

But he's not been the best performing manager over the last couple of weeks as that honour goes to Saturday's opponent Marco Silva, as Fulham produced outstanding victories against Newcastle and Nottingham Forest that truly has them in contention for European qualification.

Plus, those key FPL assets covered including Antonee Robinson, Kenny Tete's longer-term threat to Timothy Castagne; forwards Raul Jimenez and Jean-Phillipe Mateta, Dean Henderson, Ebe Eze, Ismaila Sarr and Daniel Munoz might not be the only Palace wing-back of interest in the weeks to come.

On today's Ask James' stream those on the Assistant Manager Chip are looking to move from Arne Slot or Unai Emery, but should they bother?

There's interest in Matheus Cunha and Bournemouth midfielders as expected and there's lot more chat on strategy including understanding 'when we will know' key dates for what's ahead and how those withthe majority of chips left may want to play what remains.

And that includes considering an unusual strategy for when to Wuildcard, and it's one under genuine consideration for James, who is very short on chips.
