Summary

Erling Haaland is enjoying a remarkable season and so are all of his FPL owners, but outside of the Norwegian forward, it’s difficult to know which Man City team-mate to pick 🔵💪🔵

FPL experts Harry Daniels and Sam Bonfield look at the options, whether we should mix up our forward line, and if there’s a less obvious third pick to bring in from Arsenal.

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

0:19.3

I'm Sam from FPL family.

0:20.9

And I'm FPL Harry. Well, Harry, it's a fun week for us to be on together, fun in the loosest sense of the word, of course, because our teams played each other at the weekend when Spurs played Chelsea. More on that later, unfortunately. But for my FPL team, I wish was on last last week because Van der Venner just skyrocketed my

0:38.0

bench boost. Everything had gone well. This week I've had a bit of a nightmare. But let's

0:43.8

talk about yours first. How did it go? Yeah, I have to say, I'm having the week that you had last

0:49.2

week. For those of you, unfortunately, because it's podcast, can't see the grin on my face

0:55.6

as Sam started to talk about the Chelsea Spurs game, but also to have a 90-point game week

1:00.6

to go with it and a big green arrow.

1:02.9

Only two players blanking for me in Semenio and Enzo Fernandez, but if my Chelsea players

1:23.6

So Harlan, I felt it was a more difficult fixture.

1:26.6

And I just, I don't know, I think at my rank, I just started to think that maybe this was the opportunity to just play it a little bit different with a player from a team that I felt had a better fixture. And I got that right in terms of Arsenal's performance in the game. And to be fair, Sackers, and we'll talk about that later but captain and sacker and him blanking well picking

1:46.0

up a clean sheet point but otherwise blanking was not fun on saturday because as soon as the

1:53.4

sunday rolled in and i thought well i might be looking okay right now but if harland does anything now

1:59.4

my rank is just going to tumble.

2:01.6

And of course, it did as we'll talk about later.

2:04.8

I had Gabrielle and timber clean sheets, but to be honest, outside of that, everything was

Obviously, I sold Jal Pedro this week, but in Metetta.
