Planet FPL - The Fantasy Football Podcast

Suj and James discuss the disaster of probably the worst Blank Gameweek ever as no player owned by over 20% in the top 100,000 FPL managers returned! And there's chat on Double Gameweek projections following the conclusion of the weekend's FA Cup Quarter Finals, where victories for Coventry and Manchester United mean the landscape of expectations will change again!

All the games of the disaster blank, including why despite defeat Brentford should't necesserily be overlooked for the run-in and similar applies to Fulham assets who were part of a thumping win against James' Tottenham. A blip or something more concerning for Heung-Min Son and co to contend with?

Plus, James runs through his new double gameweek projections, and it's very much a 50-50 split for where the games could go and a battle over TV rights and when one particular game is shown, is likely to define what goes where between Gameweeks 34 and 37.

Suj and James discuss all the latest Talking points for Sky Fantasy with only 9 teams participating over the upcoming week and for many it will be a week to take stock rather than invest again after a period where many have taken advantage of gains.

But that's not the case for everyone...

Should those without investment in Bournemouth-Luton tonight buy Dominic Solanke or consider a Luton alternative?

Jarrod Bowen vs Ollie Watkins is the debate for Sunday's captaincy and for those who haven't gone for investment in Tottenham should that be amended as a priority ahead of Saturday's trip to Fulham?

Plus, learnings from the weekend, why selling Brighton assets may need to be reconsidered, buying a new goalkeeper, investment in Arsenal after the Internationals, listener questions and more.

Suj and James Pod on the rebranding of UEFA's club competitions that begins next season which includes the removal of the traditional 4 team, 8 Group format. In its place will be a 36 team 'Swiss-system' league table. The promise is that the competition remains based on sporting merit and that there will be more top matches from the start of the competition. But is that really the case?

There's discussion on qualification for the competition, how the tournament will work both during the League stage and then during the knockout phase, the alterations to the calendar that will affect domestic football in England, the complexities UEFA may find with the 36 team league draw and there's coverage of the changes to the Europa League and Europa Conference League too.

Plus, why it's possible for England to have as many as seven representatives in the Champions League and as many as eleven qualifiers for European competitions in future seasons, and ultimately thoughts on if the new format will be successful or not.

On the Ask James' stream recording this afternoon, it looks like there will be some hits flying around from FPL managers with the impending Bournemouth and Luton double gameweek deadline less than 24 hours away. But, which doublers are actually worth getting?

Suj and James discuss the latest for Sky Fantasy Football and the fallout from the investment in Arsenal on Monday night, which wasn't as big as we may have expected and for a certain someone there was no investment in The Gunners at all!

Investment plans for what's to come now focus on Aston Villa, Tottenham and West Ham on Sunday and Chelsea or Newcastle or Monday. But the solutions of who to buy seems quite straightforward, it's just a case of how heavy Sky Fantasy managers invest with only 4 fixtures to focus on during the following weekend. But a certain someone (yep him again) might not be able to buy anyone on Sunday!

Plus, captaincy for the weekend, coverage of next Wednesday's Bournemouth-Luton encounter, thoughts for further ahead, listener questions, learnings from the weekend, approaching the point of set and forget and more...

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Bournemouth fan Neil Grover and Luton fan Dan Ashby as the two teams face each other to complete Double Gameweek 28.

There's a heavy FPL focus on this one with full coverage of the assets across both teams.

Dominic Solanke, fitness permitting, looks set to be captained by the majority of FPL managers, but should those who haven't used the Triple Captain chip go all in on The Cherries talisman?

With Marcos Senesi now set to miss the double who is the best Bournemouth defensive option?

Marcus Tavernier? Justin Kluivert or an alternative midfielder?

Do alternative options at Luton such as Alfie Doughty and Ross Barkley offer more reliability than the Bournemouth options?

Can any of the Luton enablers be trusted?

And can selling Erling Haaland for Carlton Morris really be considered for those not Free Hitting in GW29?

Plus, discussion on The Hatters hopes for survival, why Bourbnemouth may have not looked at their brest despite ending their winless run at Burnley and the Podcast begins with discussion on Tom Lockyer whose cardiac arrest when the sides originally met is why the sides will now meet again next Wednesday.

Clayton joins James for a discussion on who they would pick in the England squad for this summer's European Championship in Germany and it's clear that with so many attacking options some big names are likely to be left behind!

Discussion firstly looks at who is almost certain to be on the plane to Germany which in turn leads to agreement on England's likely starting eleven if injuries are avoided and then leads onto the difficult choices of who to take with them.

Plus, England's vulnerability areas, the players The Three Lions simply can't do without, a look to the future and why in mnay instances Gareth Southgate will still go with the tried and trusted.
