Ep 73: Sunglass Hut (GW29-30) Mar 26, 2017

Ep 72: Chariots of Fire (GW28-29) Mar 15, 2017

For the record, this episode of Always Cheating lasts approximately 02:42 longer than Coutinho did against Burnley. Josh and Brandon discuss the continually unpredictable Liverpool midfield and a GW28 dominated by Lukaku and Joshua King. There's talk of how Tottenham's FPL prospects could be impacted by Kane's ankle injury, the absolute necessity of Alexis Sanchez going forward, and what the stats can tell us about Chelsea's attack.

On the eve of Manchester City vs Stoke, the Always Cheating hosts reflect on their GW27 transfer decisions and the potential payoff of an Aguero triple captaincy.

Doubling up on Liverpool mids or Everton defenders? Burning points for Llorente or Carroll? Are we settling for Lanzini or King? Plus armband picks, clean sheet guesses, and your listener questions.

Ep 70: Dann in Real Life (GW26-27) Feb 28, 2017

Show notes

From a Kane hat trick to a Liverpool clunker, Always Cheating hosts Josh and Brandon return to recap the highs and lows of GW26. But, let's be honest, we're here this week to talk about only one thing: the presumptive Manchester City double in GW27. Is there a way to field City assets without completely blowing up your GW28 squad? And which City players are the best bets, given Pep's penchant for rotation? We answer your listener questions and give a full preview of the GW27 fixtures with potential captains and clean sheets. Hail Cheaters!

Ep 69: Detective Maloney (Break-GW26) Feb 23, 2017

Show notes

The Always Cheating hosts sort the FA Cup fallout and run team-by-team through the key clubs with no blanks, i.e. fixtures in all three upcoming game weeks. Which FPL assets will be key in both GW26 and GW28? Is a Liverpool midfielder essential? And, if so, who? Looking ahead to GW28, Josh and Brandon debate the degree to which managers should corrupt their FPL sides just to field as close to a full eleven as possible, and how soon after might we plan to wildcard out of this mayhem. Plus we respond to your listener questions and more. Hail Cheaters!

Ep 68: Uatu the Watcher (GW25-Break) Feb 15, 2017

Show notes

Heading into a weekend of FA Cup fixtures, with the specter of GW28 looming, there's not much to do with our FPL squads but sit back and wait. In the meantime, Always Cheating hosts Josh and Brandon recap the scores from GW25, including the ghost goal from Gareth McAuley. We also discuss what to do with heavy hitters like Alexis and Ibrahimovic who will blank in GW26 (if not GW28, as well) and what the longterm prospects are for new form players Sadio Mané and Manolo Gabbiadini. We take your listener questions and more. Stay tuned next week for a full GW26 preview. Hail Cheaters!

Ep 67: One in One Million (GW24-25) Feb 09, 2017

Show notes

Still in the beautiful afterglow of Romelu Lukaku's four-goal bonanza, the Always Cheating hosts recap the results of GW24 and attempt to parse the worrying form of Arsenal and Alexis Sanchez. The question of Gabriel Jesus still lingers, and it's now a mad scramble to work Gylfi Sigurdsson back into our lineups. Josh and Brandon also discuss what is known about the blanks for GW26 and GW28 and which players might play key roles during the next month. We take your listeners questions and preview GW25's fixtures, captaincy options, and potential clean sheets. Hail Cheaters!
