FPL GAMEWEEK 17 WITH

[@FPLJianBatra]

Pleasure coming on Ross, loved it. I hope you guys enjoyed, and have a great day!

[@FPLTherapy]

Love the insights mate, looking forward to having you back on in the future!

[@FPLJianBatra]

@@FPLTherapyI look forward to it already.

[@FPLRaptor]

The episodes keep getting longer, and the quality keeps getting better. Thank you for this wonderful podcast. I have liked and subscribed because I know how much that supports the podcast. Keep up the great work (ps. some people have suggest we look alike, but you are much better looking) ❤

[@FPLTherapy]

Thank you Ross, but you certainly have better hair, I'm jealous of those luscious locks!

[@santilamela3841]

Great ep! Great balance with mixing data and football analysis, hopefully Cunha plays this week!

[@EmanCipated919]

First time knowing of Jian, he seems to know what he’s talking about as well as being nice to listen to. Great episode and a great guest!

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you very much!

[@AlphaBet4]

Yes finally My two favourite content creators. Two of the most in depth and analytical creators in FPL space.

[@FPLTherapy]

Thanks mate! Really enjoyed this chat with Jian!

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you very much! Really appreciate the support man.

[@bryceedmond7019]

Unreal guest. Such good knowledge

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you so much. The best of luck this Gameweek, have a good one.

[@Bossuno04]

No way! Jian is such a good and underrated content creator, loved this collab 🤝

[@FPLTherapy]

Agreed! And thank you :)

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you my guy❤️

[@joshyau6]

Loved this one! Was brilliant I love the analysis from Jian and you

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you very much mate. Have a great weekend, and good luck this Gameweek.

[@X0_Terra]

Jian is the man, he’s been one of my go to channels this season - mainly credit him to my 6k overall rank💯

[@FPLTherapy]

No surprise there, his content is excellent!

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you for the recognition and support my guy🤝

[@Mismsknd]

I watch nearly every video of Jian. He’s helped me get to a rank of 187k currently. This is my first full year of fpl. Started in January

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you very much my guy❤️

[@flygloble]

I was so excited for this collab, by far my 2 favourite FPL content creators, I gotta say this felt a lot like the two of you talking at eachother more than with eachother. You both spoke as you would in solo videos for such long stretches and moved between topics before any response. Love you both, still enjoyed and left a like

[@FPLTherapy]

Thanks for the feedback! I can’t watch or listen to pods where people interrupt each other a lot, it really gets to me. So I think letting the other person talk is important, but I will take this on board!

[@flygloble]

Of course I’d completely agree. You’re right in that the pod would have been worse if it was constant interruptions. I do think there is sweet spot in there somewhere, and I think by spending more time podding together you find that easier.

[@Shluba_]

I so know I’m going to enjoy this. Jian and Ross both very articulate and have an abundance of knowledge of football and fpl. Thanks guys

[@FPLTherapy]

Thanks mate!

[@FPLJianBatra]

Appreciate you my guy

[@VKMP1234]

Best collab, Ross & Jian you are my two favourite FPL content creators ever! 😍

Thank you!

Wow, 2 of my favourite content creators collaborating! Thanks so much and great job. Also bench one this week from enzo amad and joao pedro Cheers.

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you Noah! I would say Enzo.

[@FplNoah]

@ thanks 🙏

[@rickytamir4907]

Outstanding episode. Incredibly helpful. Many thanks to both.

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you Ricky!

[@janvisser4132]

This guy is great. It sounds like he knows a lot of tactics and dynamics of the game, that is quite rare among FPL content creators, at least to this extend.

[@FPLTherapy]

I absolutely agree!

[@janvisser4132]

@@FPLTherapy It wasn't a dig at you btw, you are great too. And I love this podcast. I aways listen to FPL therapy during my workout, I love the different perspectives. A while back there was a guest that talked about Cunha, why he was so involved in that attack and so good for bonus. Made me buy him early, and that worked out very well. This podcast really adds value for me.

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you so much. I really appreciate you taking the time to comment.

[@kamrulislamm4706]

am I the only one who fast forwarded the FPL bit and only listened to the actual game analysis? :D Mr Raptor, you are doing an amazing job promoting hidden gems like Jian. 👏

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed!

[@maccom8]

Great Pod guys, loving this!!

@ very much so. I’ve watched every episode of this podcast, so was nice seeing a familiar but unexpected face

[@a.mirrorsedge1553]

Love this

[@clintstill8849]

Always enjoy content from @FPLJianBatra , he gives unique and very useful information. Great podcast

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you very much my friend

[@Vongspawn]

Fenerbahçe fan here. We know Vitor Pereira very well. For anyone wondering the prospects he can offer for Wolves, i'd say he's a good manager even if not very exciting. However, he has a strong and consistent record of being belligerent. Don't be shocked if he gets in verbal fights with players and media. On the upside, he's the guy who first trusted Arda Güler and brought him up. It can be a great oppourtunity for young talented players.

[@JThompson2324]

Ross Ross Ross this is outstanding. So informative thank you and keep up the good work. Also Is enzo likely to go to 5.2 before the deadline. I’m not sure wether to move early.

[@FPLTherapy]

Thank you my friend! And no, I doubt it

[@mentionmyeyes]

go on❤

[@ariellavender5348]

Man I love cooking watching this show. I sold Son and Cunha for Amad and Isak whilst saving money for future moves (still have template Premiums) . Great show!

[@FPLTherapy]

Very nice transfers, and I hope your meal went well!

[@threalkrazyk8852]

Great collab

[@GoldenGoalFF]

Great episode! How good is Jian?! (Ross ok too)

[@FPLTherapy]

I agree, I'd replace Ross with Jian if I could

[@FPLJianBatra]

Thank you Tom! Appreciate the continued support.

[@dullsearake]

GOOD PODCAST

[@bannnnner]

Too much of the chat about the assis manager chip is about what 1 manager is best. But as mentioned its an OP chip, so FTs will be best used to optimise 3x managers over a period that suits

[@FPL_TheEnglishAussie]

Couldn’t agree more with this!

[@brucey07]

1031 pts just outside top 50k

[@janvisser4132]

On Cunha, the last 3 times that players got banned it took at least 1, most of the time 2 weeks after the response date to get the ban. So based on precedence he could very well still be available for Leicester. Not saying that he should play, but he probably could. It is worth the wait until the deadline at least.

[@TheJonathanKidd]

These shows are a great watch, Ross. Already one of the best. Well done. Have you managed to reschedule James?

[@FPLTherapy]

Not yet unfortunately. Mondays are the busiest day for James but that is when I record. We will work on it in the new year!

[@Jim-gh6mr]

An overlooked element to assman is you literally could score 0 which is unlikely but still possible. If you focus too much on the underdog bit you could easily pick up 3 losses without scoring. There's going to be a hard luck story you just know it where somebody jumps from one manager who loses to another who loses but the previous one wins. It'll be swingy as hell. If you think the backlash for it when introduced was big just wait until it turns your planned 70 points into single figures

[@FPLTherapy]

I think the underrated element is it being called assman. I agree though, this is the risk of backing the underdog and why I might play it a bit safer

[@roking567]

@@FPLTherapy😂😂😂

[@soulsearch13]

17:20 They have something similar to this implementation in fantasy efl but less consequential, it’s not a chip, active every week and free… But yeah you choose 2 teams that earn you points and have a limit of choosing them max 5 times in the season

[@MarcNash]

Batra's AssMan strategy seems to assume no moves up or down the table?

[@jackharried613]

Triple captained Palmer this week lol, 6 points from hojlund last year 9 from Palmer this year, progress…

Welcome! Thanks mate :)

[@BigMadAndy]

Benched Fabianski for Henderson, and also Mbeumo and Lewis Hall. I am in a world of pain.

[@notnottsnottingham8677]

Regarding the rogers pen shout, he dragged elliot andersons shirt off in the way into the box, and was by the byline unable to shoot, so he throw himself to the floor. Var is busted because it could award the pen but its also an obious foul by rogers on the way into the box so how does that track?

[@FPLTherapy]

Your username says it all mate!

Lovely content ross

Thank you!

Thanksgorithm legend

[@Js33139]

Let’s go 🎉

[@creed87]

Well despite everybody jumping off haaland I’ve gone and brought him in this week! 😂 doing it before a lot of people do for GW18 to avoid a potential price increase. But mainly because I have the other 3 top premiums salah,saka and palmer. So I have 4 premiums and when I check my mini leagues I am literally the only team that has 4. I have Jackson and joao pedro up front too the only place I’ve sacrificed is defence. But I still have Robinson + kerkez. Sanchez in goal 😩 hoping for some monster weeks coming up if they all go off in the same week 🙏🏻

[@gothicvanlife2331]

Haha keep getting hair transplant clinic adverts during the pod 😅😂😂😂

[@FPLTherapy]

That’s outrageous

[@ashabalendran23]

Anyone know how to get that player stats for each game view in the fpl app?

[@FPLTherapy]

Click on the game in the fixtures section and then toggle to player stats rather than match details

[@ashabalendran23]

@@FPLTherapy Thanks! I see player stats on the webpage, but not in the app. All good now though. Thank you!

Worth a -8 to get isak - would involve selling cunha, aitnouri and mitoma…

Mystery Chip - Amazing for Engaged Managers. Not great for casuals

[@FPLTherapy]

Agreed!

[@losk.s6555]

Does bro have a tennis match after or something?

[@leicama1]

START 2 : AMAD, ENZO, PEDRO

[@Mwuesse]

great pod but Porro was not dropped, he was 100% rested.

[@FPLTherapy]

I disagree. That’s the 2nd time he’s been “rested” in 3 games and apparently he fell out with Ange. Spurs fans have been calling for Spence to start for a while now too

[@Mwuesse]

@@FPLTherapy Sorry but where one arth did you hear he'd fallen out with Ange? I'm a Spurs fan too and lots of fans have bad takes. He needed a rest bc aside from the one vs Bournmouth he'd played non stop for over.2 months including for Spain. Some good fans predicted it bc it made the most sense as the best time to get a rest so he could play all the other games over this period. Fact is Ange didn't include Spence in EL squad and refused to use him for ages till he literally had no choice but to start using him. He's done OK and maybe he gets more game time now but Porro is still clearly 1st choice. That being said I sold Porro myself back in 12 and would also be getting rid bc our defence just isn't going to keep many CS rn. And also bc he ended up playing vs Southampton there's a small chance he gets another rest vs Wolves. I still expect him to play though

[@djmichnal]

Re Johnson….hes recovering from the flu.

[@ishaanhall78]

23 points on my bench this week 😭

[@FPLTherapy]

Painful!

[@ishaanhall78]

@ mainly due to Lewis hall benched for RAN

[@haydendulake7899]

Cunha to Gakpo or Wissa?

[@zzgrom]

Wissa is great at home

[@Do27gg]

This intended target thing is so silly. It shouldn’t matter if he meant it or not. I don’t care if the player tries to shoot from 30 yards out but the shot is so bad it goes to his teammates head and goes in, it should still be an assist.

[@yusufhassan3509]

Liverpool is the only team in the world that can successfully pull off a 3-3-3 against fullham and go up a goal lmao

[@mackenziefc2163]

Is Cunha and Raya to Isak and Henderson worth it for a -4 either this week or next? Selling Raya is the only way I can afford Isak 🤷‍♂️

[@Red_Hydrangea]

Isak captain

[@FPLTherapy]

I don’t hate it! Think Ipswich are a bit more solid than Leicester at the moment though

[@sunnyjim1482]

Amad just stinks of a bandwagon, been united best player the last few weeks but united haven’t exactly looked good. Much prefer Bruno

[@FPLTherapy]

Bruno is also £3.5m more!
