Always Cheating Fpl Podcast

In a Premier League weekend featuring bizarre results and controversial moments, we also saw some massive fantasy returns. Josh and Brandon consider how a new FPL template might be forming and examine some key questions heading into GW6: Should we stick with Liverpool defense after Van Dijk's season-ending injury? How badly do we need Harry Kane? And do we still want any players from Manchester City? Plus, we update our watchlist of budget strikers and defenders before focusing on transfer targets and captaincy picks for the upcoming game week. Hail Cheaters! Learn more about your ad choices.

While FPL managers wait out what remains of the International Break, we take a closer at Josh's active wildcard and discuss what it means to trigger a chip from a position of strength versus out of necessity. This week's other dilemmas center on Aston Villa's surprising form, Manchester City's worrying results, and the chaos that the Spurs attack threatens to rain down upon us. All of this, plus listener questions and a preview of GW5 fixtures, transfer targets, and captaincy picks. Hail Cheaters! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Premier League insanity continues with outrageous shorelines and results occurring throughout GW4. But, with still so much volatility within the league and FPL, who's fantasy stock is up as we head into the international break? And whose stock is actually going down? We discuss all twenty teams and attempt to pinpoint which of them are currently worthy of our time and investment. Always Cheating will return next week with a full preview of the GW5 fixtures and captaincy picks. Hail Cheaters!

A wildly unpredictable weekend in the Premier League has provided fantasy managers with far more questions than answers as this new season lurches forward. What are we meant to take away from Leicester's demolition of Manchester City? Or Chelsea's disorganized draw at the Hawthorns? Or Wolves' capitulation to West Ham? We discuss what the GW3 results could mean for wildcard teams (including Brandon's) before turning our attention to GW4 transfer targets and captaincy picks. Hail Cheaters!

After a wild goal-filled weekend, it's become even more difficult for FPL managers to gauge where they stand. It's easy to get caught between two minds—one that's patient, and another that's passive. So where does the early wildcard option come in? Well, let Brandon tell you, as he's already activated his own wildcard and is frisking the teams and fixtures for the best options for the future. Josh and Brandon also discuss the startling emergence of Everton, the curiously lopsided result for Spurs, and Manchester United's false start. Hail Cheaters!

With just one weekend of Premier League fixtures under our belt, there's already plenty to discuss. We're talking in this episode about team and player performances and what we may have gotten right or wrong in our initial FPL planning. But what do we know for certain, as opposed to just knee-jerk reactions? Has Willian already cemented himself in the Arsenal attack? Is this rebuilt Everton squad actually fo real? And is there cause for concern after Southampton's underwhelming showing at Selhurst Park? We then look ahead to GW2 and reveal our transfer and captaincy strategies for the weeks ahead.

The first deadline of the new FPL season is less than a week away and it's time to get serious about our GW1 squads.

Plus, we preview this weekend's eight fixtures, weigh the favorite captaincy options, and plan ahead for September's subsequent gameweeks. Hail Cheaters!

In a special bonus episode of the show, we’re joined by writer and podcaster Joe Lepper of Fantasy Football Scout. Joe is a fixture in the fantasy community, but he’s also known for his incredible FPL record, which features six top 10K overall rank finishes (including one top 1K finish), having never finished outside the top 100K during his twelve-year career. We asked Joe about his winning FPL strategy and how it has evolved through the years, along with the challenges he’s anticipating for next season. We also chat with Joe about his experiences as an FPL content creator, having worked with some of the best minds in the fantasy arena, and his excellent “Meet the Manager” interview series for the Scout.

Next in our series of 2020–21 season preview episodes, we outline our Ten Tips for FPL Success. This is the fifth installment of our regular pre-season feature, so this year we’re applying a healthy amount of hindsight and experience to the chat. Of course, “success” in FPL can mean different things to different people, whether it’s achieving a great score or beating your mini-league rival or simply succeeding at having more fun. Here, we discuss the common player traps to avoid, ways to stay ahead of the dreaded FPL squad “template,” what fantasy tools and resources to utilize, and the importance of setting up that Bus Team at the start of each new gameweek. We also touch upon strategies for being more patient, less stubborn, and generally getting more enjoyment out of your FPL experience. Hail Cheaters!
