Planet FPL - The Fantasy Football Podcast

On Ask James today, with the news of Tottenham missing both first choice centre backs there's a big warning for Fantasy managers who were looking to sell Erling Haaland, but with Mateo Kovacic also out for City, Tottenham are not without their own chances to hurt tomorrow and that may make selling or benching the likes of Brennan Johnson or Dominic Solanke awkward too.

Plus, Trent Alexander-Arnold is out and James will be moving him on as part of a plan to get Alexander Isak, and going treble Arsenal defence is not something James is ruling out at this stage, particularly with one player's xMins on the rise following today's Team News.

As usual, all the transfer and benching dilemmas covered and there's more chat on Ange Postecoglu and the long-term.

Tomorrow on Planet FPL: James presents the GW12 Deadline Stream, Live and in partnership with FPL Team on the Planet FPL YouTube Channel at 10am GMT

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Newcastle fan Simon Bibby and West Ham fan Chris Stone to discuss the latest at their clubs and the FPL assets within them ahead of Monday's meeting at St James's Park.

Will either Correspondent give James reason not to buy Alexander Isak? And he's not the only Newcastle asset under consideration, with Lewis Hall likely to be popular for those in search of an enabling defender and there's a warning not to forget about Anthony Gordon and Joelinton's positioning could soon make him an interesting prospect.

Jarrod Bowen for Bryan Mbeumo in GW14 is a move James earmarked in pre-season, but is there any faith in The Hammers who sit in 14th currently and with the pressure mounting on Julen Lopetegui. Mohammed Kudus also return in GW14, there's discussion too on what's happening with Lucas Paqueta and will 4.0 keeper Lukasz Fabianski retain his place in goal for the weeks ahead?

Suj joins James to discuss rotation concerns for the upcoming festive period with particular focus on spacing and rest days with context to try and ascertain where key players may well be rested in forthcoming weeks,

There's analysis on what the outlook may look like in December for the likes of premium picks Mo Salah, Erling Haaland, Bukayo Saka and Cole Palmer and where James has questions over the likes of Alexander Isak and Ollie Watkins who could well offer differential captaincy potential for some attractive fixtures... but only if they play!

Or is it actually, that the schedule looks kiner than it has in previous years and perhaps there's not too much for Fantasy managers to be concerned about...?

On Clash of the Correspondents it's bottom v top as James welcomes Southampton fan Matt Samuel and Liverpool fan Dan Lord to discuss the latest at their clubs, including the FPL assets of interest ahead of Sunday's meeting at St Mary's.

There's discussion on Mo Salah's form and captaining him this weekend, the impact a Diogo Jota return may have in coming weeks, rotation possibilities and best defensive assets, factoring in doubts over the fitness of Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Will Tyler Dibling regain his place in the Saints team? Can any of Saints enabling forwards be considered and the case is made for still considering Taylor Harwood-Bellis.

Plus, discussion on Liverpool's impressive form and the title race and why some Southampton fans feels they will be better off sticking with Russell Martin for the long-term even though the situation currently looks bleak.

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Arsenal fan Adam Pritchard and Nottingham Forest fan Mark Sutherns to discuss the FPL assets at their clubs and the current key talking points ahead of the GW12 meeting between the clubs at The Emirates.

And it's two clubs who currently sit inside the top 5 on 19 points. Forest have very much exceeded expectation so far, so is a push for European qualification now a realistic goal?

While for Arsenal the gap to leaders Liverpool is already 9 points, how concerning is this or do Arsenal now have a set of fixtures that will make them believe they can close the gap?

There's discussion on key attacking Arsenal assets Bukayo Saka and Kai Havertz, whether double Arsenal defence is the way to go, why Jurrien Timber is likely to attract increased attention and the importance of Martin Odegaard's return.

While Forest assets, it now looks tough on the fixture ticker, is talisman Chris Wood now in the sell or avoid zone despite an impressive season? Or should he and a defensive asset, with excellent defensive numbers, still be considered for investment?

There's also coverage on using context for statistics such as factoring in the quality of opponents, why some data isn't sustainable for some teams, the cut off between the bottom 7 and the rest, explainers for some underperformers, considering what's next and more.

Suj and James discuss a miserable weekend, no, laugh at a miserable weekend of red arrows, failed Fantasy returns, and dismal home showing for the clubs they support! Yeah it's that kind of vibe.

All the games reviewed as usual which included those disappointing days for West Ham and Tottenham and another disappointing day for vulnerable Manchester City, who were beaten by a Brighton side who now very much appeal for Fantasy managers and so to will Chelsea and Arsenal assets following their draw at Stamford Bridge. Both have very positive long-term fixtures.

But the player the lads will probably want to but most is Alexander Isak, there's interest too in double ups on teams defensively, a Trent replacement may be needed, Mo Salah was on it again and provided another double point return ahead of facing the league's bottom side in Gameweek 12.
