0:19.9

I'm Lee from FPL family.

0:21.6

And I'm FPL Harry. Well, Harry, we're about to enter a week of cup action, aren't we?

0:26.2

0:32.3

So the Premier League takes a little bit of a backseat until next Tuesday, which is when our next game week is.

0:37.9

So it's probably a good idea to be patient with those transfers because a lot can happen

0:42.1

across all of those cup matches. Meanwhile, let's talk about game week 20. How is it for you?

to get returns from Jal Pedro and Bruno Fernandez and what looked like a really tricky week for

1:36.3

both of them is not the end of the world. But outside of those two, it was Sala, Captain, Palmer,
