We're into the last nine gameweeks of the Fantasy Premier League campaign, a critical point of the season where mini-leagues are won and lost. 

On the latest episode of The Fantasy Faithful podcast, Ste and Harry discuss some of the most essential players to have in your FPL team for the run-in and which teams have the most favourable fixtures. 

We once again stress how good Chelsea's defence has been under Thomas Tuchel, whether doubling up on West Ham defence is a good idea, the only Liverpool player worth considering, and wonder if Arsenal will let us down or not. 

There's also transfer tips, captaincy picks, the rescheduled fixtures including Spurs double gameweek, and a tribute to Sergio Aguero after it was announced the FPL legend would be leaving after a decade at Man City.

The international break means a week off for Fantasy Premier League managers, but we're still hard at work delivering the podcast for you ahead of the all-important run-in. 

On the latest episode of The Fantasy Faithful, Ste and Harry discussed the tough decisions that will have to made about premium assets such as Bruno Fernandes, Mo Salah and perhaps even Man City players. 

We also look at which Chelsea players to target with their great run of fixtures to come, why West Ham's Jesse Lingard could be a trap, whether Wolves' Pedro Neto is a good differential or not, and why Kelechi Iheanacho is our king. 

Send on any questions or suggestions for the next episode, where we will pick our must-have players for the final nine gameweeks of FPL.

With so few teams playing in gameweek 29 of Fantasy Premier League, we look at how best to navigate the blank fixtures this weekend.

On the latest episode of The Fantasy Faithful podcast, Ste and Harry discuss who they think are the best players to transfer in for GW29, with particular focus on Arsenal, Spurs and West Ham.

We also look back at our regrets from GW28, wonder what the hell has happened with Mo Salah at Liverpool, offer our FPL transfer tips and make our captaincy picks.

Following a mixed bag of a gameweek in Fantasy Premier League, we take stock of the big hitters and premium assets across the best teams in the game. 

On the latest episode of the Fantasy Faithful podcast, Ste and Harry take an in-depth look at the most talked-about sides in FPL right now, with particular focus on Chelsea, Liverpool, Man United, Spurs and West Ham. 

We question the necessity of owning either Mo Salah or Bruno Fernandes, two highly expensive players whose form has dipped considerably recently. We also debate which of Bale, Kane or Son are the most important to transfer in, which Chelsea defenders are the best bets, and why Aaron Cresswell is pretty much essential at this stage. 

We also reflect on our regrets from GW27, and give our essential FPL tips on transfers and captaincy picks for GW28.

Former Sunderland and England player Michael Gray joined us on The Football Faithful podcast to discuss the North East outfit's new owner, 23-year-old Kyril Louis-Dreyfus and why he thinks the French businessman has "the club at heart".

Ste and Harry also asked Michael about his fascinating career, during which he spent 12 years at his hometown club. At Sunderland, Gray won the first division with a record points total, suffered playoff heartache when he missed the decisive penalty in the most famous playoff final ever, and got called up for international duty while still a second tier player.

On the latest episode of The Fantasy Faithful podcast, Ste and Harry talk about their regrets about DGW26 so far, even though it's gone pretty well for them with several games still to go!

The lads look back at their predictions for which players they thought would be essential for the month of February. Some did really well, others were disappointing, while one in particular was absolutely abysmal.

We also offer our tips and advice on the best captaincy picks for GW27 as well as our transfer targets in FPL, including some differential replacements for Harvey Barnes.
