| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to this week's off the bench podcast from the Premier League. |
| 0:18.9 | My name is Lee from FPL family. |
| 0:20.6 | And I'm Harry from FPL Harry. |
| 0:22.4 | Harry, it's been a very big weekend for FPL managers, |
| 0:25.1 | lots for us to discuss on this week's off-the-bench podcast. |
| 0:28.5 | Game week 20, of course, isn't over yet. |
| 0:30.8 | Either we've got two games left for that double game week to complete. |
| 0:34.3 | Palace versus United on Wednesday, |
| 0:36.3 | as well as City versus Spurs on Thursday, and this |
| 0:40.3 | game week, over 450,000 managers, triple captained Harland. I was one of them, more on that a bit later |
| 0:47.0 | on. And over 40,000 managers use the triple captainship on Marcus Rashford. So it's the 40,000. |

| 1:11.8 | look at it and think it is Manchester United and it is Tottenham. And I think a lot of people who |
| 1:15.4 | played it did have a sort of slight doubt about whether there would be a better double game week |
| 1:20.1 | for Harland or for someone else later down the line. I know Harlan's been a great asset for us. I'm not |
| 1:24.6 | necessarily locked into playing it on him as we saw Marcus Frasford's in great form at the moment. So there's potential that he gets it later on in |
| 1:30.6 | season, Harry Kane. If there is a really nice, good double, I tend to not do that well with my |
| 1:36.2 | triple captain. I think a lot of us think actually looking at it historically, the triple |
| 1:39.9 | captain tends to be more of a pain and it tends to go, you know, we think about the sarnes, |
