Welcome back to this week's off the bench podcast from the Premier League.

0:20.2

I'm Lee from FPR Family.

0:21.8

And I'm FPL Harry. Well, Harry, good morning. We aren't quite finished yet with Game Week 24.

0:27.1

Of course, we still have the Merseyside Derby to be played, which will be played next Wednesday, the 12th of February.

0:33.6

But before then, Harry, we've got second legs of the League Cup semi-finals. We've got the fourth round of the FA Cup. So lots of football still to happen before the game week closes. But how is game week going so far for you? Yeah, it feels kind of a weird position to have a review of the game week when we still have what is probably, it's it? It's probably the biggest match of FPL for the

0:55.5

season so far. Because of the amount of players we all have in the Merseyside Derby, we all, well,

1:00.9

the majority of us will have a chip active going into that game as well. And it's nine days away.

1:05.5

And between then, we of course, as a big caveat, have the next round of the EFL Cup, which will be the deciding factor of the doubles going into Game Week 25.

1:13.3

So it feels like a slightly strange place to be with so much of the game week still resting on that final, just one match.

1:20.1

But I didn't go with the very popular assistant managership this week.

1:24.3

I still had my triple captain in my back pocket, which was the

1:27.8

plan until plans got thrown up in the air on Friday afternoon. But by Saturday morning, I came

1:33.4

back around to it to hold strong. So triple captain on Mo Sala, and I didn't expect two goals for him

1:40.3

in what was meant to be and did turn out to be quite a difficult performance or a difficult

1:44.2

match up against Bournemouth. But it does mean with Cobb Palmer's assist last night, I just

1:49.2

break the 100 Club into 105. So looking pretty happy with how this game we could start. How about you?

1:55.4

I know you don't have a chip active. So it's not quite as rosy, because you're fighting against a pretty

2:01.5

uphill battle this week, right?

2:03.3

Fighting against the tide, yeah.

2:04.9

Let me ask you before I talk about my team.

2:06.4

Did you enjoy the chaos of Friday when the Premier League dropped the rearranged fixtures in?

2:12.3

So for those of you that unaware, we know that there's going to be a double game week coming
