0:00 Lobby 1:00 Start 6:25 FDR 10:05 Schedule 15:00 Defence 50:30 Midfielders 1:07:35 Sleeper 1:10:50 Forwards 1:31:12 Last words

[@Ramez0729]

1:31:13 This structure is what I am sitting with rn so yeah it’s doable and I actually like it alot. I got a core of Saka,Foden,Haaland,Trent,Kai,Mbuemo. Also not many sacrifices where aside those I got Raya,Porro,Robinson, Rogers, DCL. Probably won’t be activating my WC anytime soon.

[@offthebiscuit_]

Important to note on salah, Liverpool have Madrid 3 days after soton & city 4 days after that. Unless their some injury issues with other attackers, slot will want to play salah for 90 mins vs Madrid & city in two high intensity games. I can’t see him playing more than 60 vs soton which is not what you want for a 12.5 mil asset

[@BigBio10]

LR i totally get the recency bias from Palmer, if i got a 25 hauler i'd wax lyrics about the player too, but on the list, you claimed he's the best finisher on as Jota on it.

[@TheFPLWireFantasyPremierLeague]

I think Palmer is elite.

[@sickemboy9352]

People with B.Johnson will transfer out in gw12 when at Man City to Garnacho for two gameweeks (Ipswich away, Everton home) then keep Bowen or Kudus from 14-18 when West Ham play leic WOL bou BRI sou... then gw19-27 Smith-Rowe gets a solid run starting with BOU IPS and ending with NFO CRY wol

[@sickemboy9352]

Palmer, Saka, Johnson, Mbeumo, Rogers and Cunha Solanke Haaland up front. I'm working towards that for gw10 and beyond.

[@Dennis_Reynolds]

Budget defence then?

[@sickemboy9352]

No surprisingly not, Gabriel + two 4.9m-4.5m defenders (i.e. Lewis and Collins) and two of Ait-Nouri/Mykolenko/Greaves/van den Berg/Faes. It's stil strong when looking at fixtures for more than 10 gameweeks. The issue is Flekken/Pickford/Sels instead of Raya but that's okay if you have Palmer, Saka, Haaland and Rogers as 8th attacker.

[@aravindjpr]

Many happy returns of the day Zoph🎉

[@bdon2431]

great pod lads, can i ask the next pod you do, you evaluate cheap defenders? be interesting to know who the best 4.5s are over the next 5/6 gws

[@TheFPLWireFantasyPremierLeague]

we did talk about it this episode. Nouri, Milenkovic and Robinson were the ones we liked

[@radmilabicanski864]

Happy birthday Zoph, you legend!

[@DheerajDhee13]

Thank you for the Pod. I made a great transfer last gw Henderson to Ederson for a huge 0 Pointer. Now I am in for the next 4 City Fixtures with him.

[@ScottAshton-fpl]

Happy birthday Zoph!

[@shishsuke]

Happy birthday Zoph 🎉

[@niranjanbennyamrutha]

Happy Birthday Zoph❤

[@Unolmoseco]

On premiums: looking at Watkins and Díaz to Wood and Palmer for free in GW9. That would leave me with Raya; Trent, Gab; Palmer, Saka; Haaland. Rest of the squad is 4.5/4.0/4.0 defs (all starting); Mbeumo, Semenyo, Rogers; Raúl. (WC6 done good for my squad value.) Would leave me one spare transfer too. Was modelling that today and it almost felt like you couldn't go wrong with that.. i.e. too good to be true, which it no doubt will turn out to be. 😂

[@Unolmoseco]

...like a Watkins hat-trick to Bournemouth and Palmer blanking until GW12. 🥴

[@Unolmoseco]

And HBD to Big Zoph!

[@sickemboy9352]

Hot take: Salah's best entry point is not until December 5th for gw15. There is no reason to give up Palmer or Saka from gw9-14 to get Salah. Palmer 9-14: NEW, mun, ARS, lei AVL sou Saka 9-14: LIV, new, che, NFO, whu, MUN. Arsenal will score at Newcastle and Chelsea and vs Man Utd. Saka is involved in goals. Salah 9-14: ars, BRI, AVL, sou, MCI, new Salah then has Everton(a), Fulham(h), Spurs(a), Leicester(h), West Ham(a), Man Utd(h), N.Forest(a), Brentford(a) Ipswich(h), Bournemouth(a), Wolves(h) all from 15-25.

[@randomname3951]

Great pod! Btw Joe pesci is pronounced (pesh-ee) 😅

[@seimonlal]

Happy Birthday Zoph. Can I get an invite to the discord group if not your birthday party. Thanks 💥

[@TheFPLWireFantasyPremierLeague]

Thank you!

[@generalbushdakta1856]

I'm not so sure that upside chasing is the way to go. You are going to lose some team value every time you jump from one big hitter to another, which will prevent you from getting the team value needed to have a solid team with 3-4 premiums. In my opinion you Wire-guys focus too much on fixtures when it comes to the premiums.

[@gunnaruppstad3574]

This is not correct. The only way to actualise team value increases is to sell a player. As with anything else, if you're upside chasing you have to make predictions on changes in price for the player you bring in/remove.

[@TheFPLWireFantasyPremierLeague]

I agree with the theory that it might not necessarily be the way to go. We do allude that Haaland saka palmer look like the best 3

[@MultiLiveevil]

Happy birthday 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@TheFPLWireFantasyPremierLeague]

Thank you!

[@speardrops]

I've got Havertz and like him. He's not a 9m or 9.5m asset. That's Palmer and Saka territory which he is nowhere near.

[@leenixon-x2z]

Happy Birthday for tomorrow Zoph

[@TheFPLWireFantasyPremierLeague]

Thank you!

[@user-bc8bz9ve4h]

Lateriser, stop spreading the Foden plan! That is for us to enjoy! 🤪

[@gothgurlfriend]

Great content guys. Btw, Joe Pesci is pronounced like Joe 'Peshi'.

[@ricardobotas3956]

Guaranteeing a Tarkowski's attacking return in the next 5 fixtures...what a bold statement!

[@BigBio10]

Birthday Blessings to Zoph

[@TheFPLWireFantasyPremierLeague]

Thank you!

[@binayaksubedi7003]

LR needs to learn to listen and not continuously interrupt others.

[@TheFPLWireFantasyPremierLeague]

I didn't feel interrupted at any point, just 2 friends talking - zoph

[@AhmedAlkady-l8w]

Guys dont you just love his passion? I mean why does everyone keep saying that every week? This is his passion glaring while talking with his friends. He has always been like that when he is in to it so stop such comments please

[@dedoc7143]

My teams a mess.

[@sherardsadeek9597]

Happy birthday Zoph🎉
