Where Are The Edges? | Gameweek 36

4/29/2024
Double gameweek 35 is mostly in the books, and FPL – at least in the engaged end – seems to have taken that Buzz Lightyear meme where there’s hundreds of clones on a shelf to heart, while players are dropping like flies and many manager’s teams are redolent of the walking wounded. Today, we investigate whether there are in fact any edges left open to us for the final 3 gameweeks of the season, or is it a case of just accepting your lot. Plus the Gameweek 36 preview, including best transfers in (especially if, like Sam, your team is echoing those walking wounded!) and captaincy.

How Much Do We Risk? | Double Gameweek 35

4/24/2024
WGTA return during the second half of double gameweek 34, which was without doubt one of the most swingy weeks we’ve seen for a while, with various permutations in terms of free hit choices and one week punts for those now on wildcards leading to really diverging outcomes here and there πŸ”€ We discuss possible changes to the game post FA Cup replay scrappage and outcome processing (in brief!) before moving onto discussing how much we risk in terms of the end of the season: Gameweeks are running out, so where do we (either on wildcard 35 or not!) take opportunities to risk it? 🎲 Plus our Gameweek 35 Preview, including bold claims, best transfers in and best captain.

Time for Heroes | FPL Double Gameweek 34

4/15/2024
We're back for another full-fat pod after a chaotic GW33 unfolded, leaving us to pick apart the wreckage as usual, especially after some VERY last minute decisions were made by both hosts...

We look at key transfers in, where the heroes may be, and also single gameweekers you may want to keep on board. Plus decide on the captaincy.

Bases Covered | Blank Gameweek 29

3/11/2024
It's a big week for the Free Hit chip, but both WGTA boys have taken a slightly different route and will be going in without it...so can they survive?

Silly Season | Double Gameweek 28

3/4/2024
We’re back as the mist starts to clear and Gameweek 29 strategies start to be solidified, albeit slightly upended by freak injuries and a certain Phil Foden making a major case to be a potential season keeper. This week, we assess him and a few others in terms of their value vs their listed price – what if FPL was repriced tomorrow, how would they come out? And what does that tell us about FPL assets later in the season? Plus the options for chip strategising come to a head as DGW28's transfers seemingly rely on how you're approaching navigating the blank week that immediately follows. We discuss those strategies, as well as best transfers and whether you will or you, er, will be captaining Solanke for DGW28.

Ready...Set... | FPL Gameweek 27 (feat FPL Cim)

2/26/2024
With crucial information to come later this week, the regulat WGTA crew are joined by TikTok star and all-round good bloke FPL Cim to run through the different scenarios we could be about to face, and how we would react to each of them! In installment one of a two parter this week (we won't be live for the second part as it's during the workday - it'll be at lunchtime, employers! - and we might be in poor locations for audio) we look at the three scenarios FPL managers may encounter due to the FA Cup results as a primer for you to think about how to approach planning from here. Plus we look at best captain (Saka vs Haaland vs... others!) and best transfers in across positions (again, with the FA Cup results in mind!)

Double Trouble | Gameweek 26

2/21/2024
DGW25 failed to live up to many of our lofty expectations (what else is new), so the WGTA take a wider look at setting up for Double Gameweeks and how they can potentially act as distractions from the greater good (Hot Fuzz reference implied). We look at the psychology of Outcome in FPL, and how that might temper how we view double gameweeks going forward. Plus in the gameweek preview we look at the midfield prospects to replace Jota, Darwin replacements in the forward line (Solanke or Hojland?) and defenders (er, anyone?). And do we keep faith in Haaland as captain? Please subscribe and leave a 5* review if you enjoy the show! πŸ™ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Double Jeopardy | Double Gameweek 25

2/12/2024
Tom & Sam are back to offer a (hopefully) measured summary of how best to prepare our FPL teams for the first big double gameweek of the season. Do we pile into as many doublers as possible, or take a more cautious approach with blanks looming... Plus in the gameweek preview, we look at best captain (er, Haaland), do we triple captain plus data analyse the four doubling teams to ask what the best transfers are for DGW25.
