The magic of the cup is here! So too is festive squad rotation so best make sure your house is in order. Someone is flying particularly high atop TOB League and there's an inquest to someone who's struggling in the money league. Fingers crossed there'll be no technical issues this week and we can all get stuck in...

There seems to be an issue with the file uploaded last night. Perhaps Guy's comments on this weeks #stenchofpotench were too hot to handle and they shut us down. Regardless, here is the end of the episode that seems to be cut off! Apologies for any inconvenience!

Do not adjust your set, you may not have any MNF but as the early gameweek beckons, here's a dose of MNTOB to get you through. There's a deep dive inquest as Stuart attempts to stop the rot. Maybe a Liverpool defensive triple up like the TOB League leader is the way to go?! One things for sure, stubborn or staunch, it's time to change tact on approach to Vardy.

I must be honest, we recorded this then I went to the pub so I don't remember the in's and out's of what we discussed now that I have to write a blurb about it. We definitely talked about Spurs. Pretty sure I was lamenting Tierney and Arsenal and whilst Guy wasn't admitting it, he's definitely got regrets about the Sheffield United defensive double up. All that and MORE (probably).

nine gameweeks in 40 days!

That's the headline so you need to be thinking about your whole squad. Should you be ditching all City assets? Loading up on the Premierships 3rd best defence? Or taking a punt on a highly controversial stench of potench? Find out now...

Some belatedly spoOoOoOky sounds book end all the hot button FPL issues of the week. Goal scoring defenders, stalwarts becoming differentials and the unlikely transformation of Bournemouth. All this and more...

Some late night, well crafted metaphors address the state of play in a couple of FPL teams with a few struggling cogs in the machine. Pep Bingo feels more impossible than ever to predict and for those wondering if there'll ever be high scoring game weeks again, perhaps the answers to these questions will lie within...

No better feeling than having another international break in the rear view mirror. Back to proper FPL business and it's important we establish what happens when the Pukki Party runs its course. To what extent are United going to get battered this week and what bandwagon is everyone seemingly jumping on? All this and more in an episode which Guy described as, 'dynamic'.

There's a collective sense at TOB Towers that we need to kick start our seasons. There's discussion of how to undo some woeful transfer planning, reluctant praise or The Rat's Leicester team and question marks over the availability of City's Rolls Royce midfielders..

A slightly sleepier than usual edition of The Onion Bag delves into the weekends massacre at the Etihad, discusses some controversial transfer moves and states definitively who are and who are not the best teams in the Premiership not named Liverpool or Manchester City. All that plus some gushing over the impending debut of one Kieran Tierney.
