Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! The lads return to preview GW12.

As seems to be the case across the entire football landscape at the moment, VAR was a talking point for the lads this week, as well as the European midweek consequences for FPL.

Some cheap soon-to-be starters in one of the best defences in the league make their way onto the radar this week, with another cheap new starter on the fringe too. A positive turn of fixtures for a London team draws out some further options on, or just outside, the radar.

More reactionary Haaland action and big injuries means not much original to swim against again, so the lads whip out their honey traps once more. What do they believe might happen, that others perhaps wouldn't...?

Captaincy seems to have a few contenders this week before they finish, as ever, with a little game they like to call Who the Heck is Stat?!
