Who Got The Assist? FPL Podcast

Join Sam and Tom on a classic WGTA deep dive as we look through the #FPL data generated from the first 5 gameweeks to ask how this, it's fair to say, unpredictable season is unfolding.

Plus some nominees for players to watch, and we suppose a quick at how our wildcards ended up.

We'll take a break in the middle week of international break, so we'll be back to preview #fantasypremierleague GW6 on Tuesday 6th October.

Sam's on Wildcard! But is Tom joining him?

After a Triple Captain disappointment for the former and a Free Hit of objective failure and subjective success for the latter, could yet more buttons be pushed by the WGTA cohosts?

Either way, the regulars remain the same: form Vs fixtures, the off ramp and the (narrower) captaincy debate ahead of #fantasypremierleague GW5.

And then... wildcards. What does Sam's look like? Has Tom wildcarded?

Tune in to find out.

After the first “mid” week of the #fantasypremierleague season for many, Sam & Tom look through the varying responses managers are taking – from Free Hits, through Wildcards, to just riding it out.

Tom’s Free Hit is active for 4 as planned – sort of – and Sam’s had a look at the counterpart wildcards which are live out there.

Additionally, a transfer window roundup, in Form vs Fixtures we run the rule over the candidates being considered for purchase this week, and in the Offramp we look at those being sold and try to cut through the noise.

Plus who gets the armband this week?

After another blockbuster week for Sam and one where Tom founds how how it feels to be underwhelmed with a triple digit score, both of us are likely to have chips active!

We cover Sam's dilemma (free hit or wildcard?), which helps us inform form Vs fixtures and also figure out who's worth the same in the Offramp.

Plus a discussion on triple captaincy on Haaland this week and our teams for #fantasypremierleague GW3.

After an opening weekend of ridiculously good (Sam) and moderate (Tom) success, we pick over the wreckage of the first dose of 38 #fantasypremierleague Gameweeks.

We'll discuss form vs. fixture for #FPL picks; the Offramp (are player being sold too early; should any be being sold at all?); the main talking point revolving around standard advice on not overthinking gameweek 1 and not thinking it's all been solved and how we set up for gw2.
