    S4E39: Gameweek 38 Preview 23/24

    Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for our GW38 Preview, the final preview of the season!



    For long-time listeners they'll know the format of this show - the lads go through every game (even Burnley vs Forest) trying to pick out the best options for your final GW.



    They start by running through the final day permutations for the title, European and all-but sealed relegation battles, before looking over historic final day stats.


    Then, game-by-game, the lads spend two minutes running the rule over the must-haves and the differentials that could make all the difference to your final mini-league or rank standings.



    After last week's incredibly bold honey trap, are listeners ready for the boldest swimming against the tide in pod history?



    And while captaincy may have a familiar feel, all that does is build up the tension for the climatic conclusion of a little game they like to call Who The Heck Is Stat?!

    S4E38: Gameweek 37 Preview 23/24

    Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for our GW37 Preview, the penultimate preview of the season!



    It's a big double gameweek - the last of the season - with six teams having two fixtures, so a key opportunity for those final chips to be used, especially those that have held their Bench Boost or Triple Captain chip/


    The radar has a fresh feel, with additions maybe of a differential nature, given the template feels so strong in FPL at the moment - the best assets are just simply so high owned, the lads offer up some alternatives that may help boost rank but some with the appropriate risks.



    Honey traps once again the order of the day, with Andy throwing out perhaps the boldest honey trap in FPL Lounge history...



    Captaincy has a Man City focus, natural given their double, but the lads run the rule over some other doublers that could be great armband differentials for those chasing in a mini-league. They finish, with the penultimate game of Who The Heck Is Stat?! of this season.

    S4E37: Gameweek 36 Preview 23/24

    Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for our GW36 Preview!


    The potential for rolling a transfer looms large over this gameweek but there are still plenty of appealing options for your FPL teams.


    The radar looks similar to last week's with great fixtures and doubles still on the horizon for the league's oil rich clubs. Some movement though with players going up, some going off and some newly appearing.



    The eyes to next week's double are also wide with the anyone else list slightly longer than usual...



    That upcoming double also impacting the tide - its very still and clam out there. Nothing to swim against. So the Honey Traps are back out and they make for some useful consequences for FPL.



    Captaincy looks to be open to a few options this week with ranks swings certainly possible and big returns expected for more than one key player. The lads discuss these pros and cons before finishing with what could be a crucial game of Who The Heck Is Stat?!

    S4E36: Gameweek 35 Preview 23/24

    Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for our GW35 Preview!


    A double gameweek for two teams gives a focus to this week's pod, although with many managers on Wildcard, the lads run through a few permutations including how seriously to take this DGW35 and when the best time is to play your bench boost.


    The radar has had a facelift, with plenty of new names to discuss, including a mercurial young Englishman and a super Swede on the mid-range, and a whole host of fringe picks to get you wildcard-ready. Andy even says a few positive things about United players.



    Honey trap this week suffers from a bit of groupthink, but there's still some takeaways for managers to use, before they run the rule of the big DGW captain shouts and finish, as ever, with a little game they like to call Who The Heck Is Stat?!

    S4E35: Gameweek 34 Preview 23/24

    Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for our DGW34 Preview!


    Big double gameweek for seven teams (and a blank for one) means divergent strategies - including in the Lounge! - so the lads run through some thoughts about how to tackle the DGW34 depending on what chips you've left. There's also a focus on European rotation.


    The radar has a familiar feel to last week, but with some upgrades for *some* Crystal Palace assets, and the inclusion on the radar for the most expensive defender in the game. Speaking of, they run the rule over Liverpool assets, with a certain attacker notable by his absence... although long-time listeners won't be surprised.


    Hold your horses AGAIN and don your swimming trunks AGAIN - there's ANOTHER tide to swim against! This player is no favourite of the Lounge, but even so, the most transferred player in not doubling this week? Not for this podcast.


    Captaincy seems a toss up between two assets, neither of whom look great on the eye at the moment. They end, as ever, with a little game they like to call Who The Heck Is Stat?!

    S4E34: Gameweek 33 Preview 23/24

    Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for our GW33 Preview!


    The key FPL news kicks us off and it focuses on this GW being in a European sandwich.


    Like last week, the radar is influenced by the chips you may or may not have left, and by a large DGW looming next week. A couple of new additions make their way on including a previously much maligned FPL asset with some very interesting recent stats. Some interesting returns from injury for big players has also caught the lads' eyes.


    Hold your horses and don your swimming trunks - there's actually a tide to swim against! And its a potentially risky one, but the lads explain why they think transferring in one of the league's best players could be an error.


    Captaincy seems close this week, with the usual suspects seeming like the best shouts - but which one?! They end, as ever, with a little game they like to call Who The Heck Is Stat?!
