The FPL site is officially live for the 2024/25 Premier League season, meaning it's again time to log in, secure a low team ID, and get down to business. In this episode, we run through initial thoughts on player pricing and changes to the overall game mechanics. Which players are priced too high, too low, or just right? Can we possibly afford Erling Haaland at £15 million—officially the most expensive asset in history? And how are we feeling about the new ability to bank up to five free transfers? Plus, we of course discuss ways we'll make this FPL season more fun than the last. Hail Cheaters!

0:44.8 | 15 pounds since the last pod, Brandon. So you can actually do a |
0:47.7 | you can do a side-by-side weight comparison on these |
0:53.0 | YouTube videos to gauge the changes. |
0:56.7 | We, you know, similar with our fantasy scores, right, Josh, like personally, personally, |

1:08.8 | That's true. |
1:09.5 | You and I should do a cross-wates challenge. Let's see, I'm curious when you and I would cross weights. I might still weigh more than you. I'm not sure. Like, we'll have to, you'll do a way in the next time you're in New York. So thanks to everyone for joining us on the pod today. And we're happy to be back. This is our 10th season doing fantasy content, which is kind of amazing. We started this 2014 and a bit of a lark. I think we really thought that we might do it for five years. I mean, I think that was, or even one, I mean, who knows, right? Maybe we were going to do it for a handful of episodes and quit. I mean, that's a pretty standard way to do a pocket. If you go to the iTunes store or like Spotify or whatever and just, or even like YouTube and just dig through like channels, like 97% of the content has three episodes, right? |
1:54.6 | Because it's like it's a shocking amount of work to do even one of these things. And you three and you get eight listeners and you're like, why am I doing this again? |
