    • Is Bowen to Raphinha a move worth doing despite Bowen now having a game in the blank week 30?
    • Three tempting Southampton full backs, but each one a concern for minutes, is Bednarek the play?
    • Best picks for people on a wildcard this week?
    • Have two FHs still, the plan was always to use them in 30 and 33 but is there more upside to using one in 28?

    Salah Regret & Free Hit Gameweek 27 Feb 24, 2022
    Show notes

    The FPL General reflects on a late decision to wildcard, following last Friday's fixture changes, and why he'll get over not triple-captaining 84 pt hero Mo Salah... Plus, why it makes sense to use a Free Hit chip for Gameweek 27 as well as, answers to the following:

    • Who are the best Triple Captain options, if you still haven't used it?
    • What's the minimum number of players you would say to play in BGW27?
    • I have six players from Liverpool & Arsenal, and 1 Free Hit... Would you FH this week and save your wildcard for next?
    • Should those of us on a Free Hit aim to have some bench cover or simply put as much money into our starting 11 as possible?
    • Are Burnley assets worth a hit this week if we don't plan on keeping them going forward?
    • Who are some of the best differential picks for a free hit squad?
    • Foden vs Sancho vs Sterling for the free hit selection?
    • Which Man City triple up to go for on Free Hit?
    • Do you go for Fernandes or Sancho from the Manchester United midfield on a free hit?
    • Could Podence be a sneaky differential in the upcoming weeks?

    Show notes

    • Weghorst or Cornet to target for Burnley's double double?
    • Is Antonio to Weghorst the best move?

    Gameweek 24 midweek fixtures preview Feb 07, 2022
    Show notes

    FPL General is back after a lengthy gameweek 23 finally drew to a close at the weekend, and it was a tough one for a lot of managers. We look ahead to gameweek 24 with the usual array of transfer advice, watchlist updates, and these questions answered:

    • What strategy would you go for with ALL CHIPS left to use?
    • How many hits is it worth taking for a Bench Boost, -4 or -8?
    • What do you think of Free Hit GW26 and have at least a strong 11 who all double, as opposed to the crowd of Triple Captain Salah as a part of a chip strategy?
    • Bruno. Salah. KdB. Ronaldo. Kane. Son. Which two or three do you see as the most effective from GWs 24-27?
    • With so many premium assets back in form, is it "essential", especially structure-wise, to have a two premium set up, or is it still viable to perma captain Salah and spread the cash?
    • Top 3 defenders to buy ahead of GW24 excluding Trent & Cancelo? Unlimited budget.
    • Is Rashford a viable alternative to Ronaldo and Bruno as a Man United attacking option for the next two gameweeks?
    • Are the Crystal Palace options worth a punt? Good recent underlying stats but mostly from home games…next 3 out of 4 fixtures are away…
    • Is it worth holding the Watford strikers for the upcoming DGW?
    • Is it worth thinking outside the box when looking for strikers? Benteke, Edouard, Richarlison for example?

    Is it time to ditch Ronaldo and go back to Bruno? Jan 20, 2022
    Show notes

    FPL General is here after a hectic double gameweek featuring more postponements and plenty of on-field drama. We look ahead to GW23 with the usual selection of captaincy picks, transfer advice, a watchlist update, and these burning questions tackled:

    • With some shrewd signings are Villa assets worth a consideration?
    • Is it better to focus on strong mid to long term transfers e.g. City assets or chase the immediate extra points from teams with doubles?
    • Is it wise to sell Jota with a plan to replace him with Salah?
    • With Fernandes appearing to find some form now and Ronaldo looking more out of sorts, is it time to just ditch Ronaldo and return to our old FPL best mate from last season, for a Bruno and Salah double up?
    • Would you be holding onto Everton assets with Duncan Ferguson now at the reins or look to the more attractive midfielder options?
    • What to do with Antonio?
    • Selling Rudiger next week, is a Man City defender the best replacement despite no DGWs?
    • Raphinha, Coutinho or Foden?
    • With no DGW23 fixtures announced, are we better to bank a transfer this week if we can?
    • How tempted are you to wildcard sooner rather than later?
