The Value Of Money | GW9

Tom & Sam get straight to the point and start with Joao Pedro replacements: who's moonwalking in for us? Onto form Vs fixtures (is Tav obvious), the Offramp and Haaland is the captain again (probably). And then the key talking point: a tricky week creates yet more possible injuries for #fpl managers, so we survey the landscape to try to figure out what the impacts are for us. Especially interesting is if an unintended consequence of the rather flat pricing structure this year has led to team value having diminished impact this campaign (at least, so far) as many have a ridiculous amount in the bank - what does that mean? And what players come to the fore should money be no object?

Scouting The Options | Gameweek 8

Transfers in and out feel a little academic thus far, so this week Sam & Tom take a little look into two price brackets which are of growing interest to #FPL managers: the ~5.0m defenders and the "third striker" (including junking the spot) to help with planning and to assist in making those decisions when it comes to it.  Plus a tricky week for captaincy despite quite a heavy template at the moment, which we'll also touch on.

Back in the Rhythm | Gameweek 7

After a good (Sam) and bruising (Tom) return to FPL, we’re back into the rhythm ahead of Gameweek 7. But who’s made early moves? Hmm. Either way, we’re here to preview the weekend ahead with Brighton dominating the transfers in still, the likes of Bruno shedding owners in the Off Ramp, and surely a slam dunk captaincy for Haaland. Plus in the talking point: Sam's therapy chaise longue is in session: how can Tom stop the drop and resurrect what is in danger of being a proper Banter Season?

Back To Business | FPL Gameweek 6

Hey you, you’re finally awake. Yes, the longest international break in history is finally nearing its conclusion and us #FPL managers are awakening from our slumber, meaning Tom & Sam are back to finally preview Gameweek 6! We've got man flu but we power through. Following on from our pod before our week off, we’re going from macro to micro as we look ahead to the #fantasypremierleague return, with form vs. fixtures picking up players WC6 will be looking at, an extended look at the offramp to see what players have fallen off substantially, season long, and also a tricky captaincy call this week. Plus a look at what a Gameweek 6 Wildcard might look like and how different it is from ours in GW5, and maybe even the first wave in GW3/4.

Unpredictable Times | International Break 1

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.

Pressing MORE Buttons | #FPL Gameweek 5

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. If you enjoyed this, leave a 5-star review, say something nice if you’d like, and do subscribe to our feed – we really appreciate it, and it helps us so much!

Pressing Buttons | FPL Gameweek 4

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? If you enjoyed this, leave a 5-star review, say something nice if you’d like, and do subscribe to our feed – we really appreciate it, and it helps us so much!

The Rollercoaster Continues | Gameweek 3

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.
