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

0:20.0

I'm Lee from FPR family.

0:21.6

And I'm FPR Harry. Well, Harry, it's fairly unusual for us to be here for an off-the-bench

0:26.7

podcast when only eight games have been played. But because of the FA Cup final, congratulations

0:31.2

Manchester City. We're coming to you as normal with Chelsea v Spurs and Bournemouth v. City still

0:36.8

succumb this game week.

0:38.2

But let's start with how it's going for you so far. And who do you still have left to play from

0:42.8

those fixtures? Yeah. So I'm here feeling a little bit battered and bruised by game week 37,

0:48.8

as I'm sure there are some people in a similar situation. It's not been my best game week of the season. I'm on 34 points. I had a triple up on Brighton, which was looking good until a last minute Dominic Calvin Lue and goal. We're going to have to talk about that, aren't we? Goodness me. Absolutely. A player who I sold a few weeks ago to buy Victor Yocchores, who was my captain last night, who ended up with only one point.

1:11.9

Exactly. But I've still got four to play. I've got O'Reilly, Cherokee Harland, and I still have Jow Pedro in what is a very big game at Stanford Bridge tonight and a very good big game for Bournemouth and Manchester City as well. So there is still a lot of Premier League and FPL to go. and fingers crossed,

1:27.1

it can be better

1:27.7

than it maybe looks

1:28.3

now.

1:28.6

But how about you?

1:29.5

Oh,

1:29.9

I feel for you

1:30.9

and I feel for you. And I feel the Brighton pain as well. I had double Brighton defence. I had for Bruggan and Van Heck. And I don't think we can point too much for finger for Bruggan, but we probably can. I'm afraid to say at Van Heck. I think it was his mistake that caused the Dominic Calvert-Lewing goal. So, yeah, that's at least eight, maybe if bonus points for those

1:49.2

two guys come about, maybe nine points worse off for that goal. So yes, I can, yeah, we'll get that

1:54.0

out of our system nice and early. We'll get that out. But 44 points in total. So saved largely

1:59.0

by the Saka-Capsancy from last night with the assist and the defensive contribution total. So saved largely by the Saka captaincy from last night with the assist and the

2:02.9

defensive contribution points. So, yeah, apart from that, not a lot to shout about. Gabrielle

2:08.3

just in with the six. Juesbury Hall, who I bought in this week. I wanted to get rid of Anthony
