Midweek fixtures return to FPL pod does too. We reflect on Game Week 27 and debate whether

it's time to sell Morgan Rogers. We ponder over a Liverpool triple up and we're sweating over a fair

few injuries ahead of Game Week 28. I'll tell you what, sometimes I dread these Monday morning

records when we're still kind of seething from the game week. But when you've had a better game week, it makes getting up bright and early. Talk about FPL a lot easier. Guys, I don't have good weeks very often. But if I'm going to, I'm glad it's from where we are speaking the next morning. Welcome back. Kelly here. Sam and Jules also here. I have for once had a good game week. and it felt like it was a better game week in general. This is your first reminder, by the way,

Tuesday night deadline. That's why we're here. 6 o'clock, 90 minutes before the first fixture. Well, there's three actually early kickoffs on Tuesday get underway. So yeah, there's your first reminder. We're going to dive into everything from the weekend and look into those fixtures for you over the next 35 minutes or so. But yeah, I'm quite happy with my game week. What about you, Jules? Well, 64 points in the end is not too, too bad. It's above average. But it feels like this was the weekend where you could rack up a lot of points and I missed out, really. And it feels like a missed opportunity, really, which is a bit, a bit annoying.

I was saved by Bruno as captain.

You know, we talked about it on the last show.

I felt it was a really strong captain, the first half hour.

I really cursed him and cursed having him, having given him the arm band because United was so bad and Palace was so, just so dominant and so easy, really. After that, it got better with the

penalty obviously and the bonus points, the assist for the Chesco goal, all of that. So it was good.

The problem is, Holland obviously, surprisingly not now involved. I had Enzo because, as you know,

me, I don't really care who's on the bench, who's the first sub, second, third, third. I didn't even know there was first, second, and third. So I had, you know, I leaves a few points with Senesi on the bench instead of Enzo, but overall, 64 points, I take it. But it feels really like for everybody who plays the game seriously, it could have easily been 75 plus, really. Yeah, it was above average, wasn't it, with 53, the average. It's just rare that you have a significantly worse game week than me, to be honest, Jules. It's just about the luck, though, isn't it? I'm going to mention it. I think you might catch him now. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. So you might catch you? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So let's give the listeners and the viewers some context then.

So I got... I'm going to mention. I think you might catch him now. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's relax. Yeah. She might. No.

Okay, so let's give the listeners and the viewers some context then. So I got 90 points this game week. Jules got 64, as he said. Sam got 72. So we kind of hit all brackets. We kind of went from, we were all above average, but we went from mid-60s to 90. Jules is on 1621. I'm on 1588. So there is still quite a 33-point gap between the two of us. But I mean, I made up that almost this week. This week. Yeah. Exactly. And then Sam is on 1541. So you're now 37 points behind me. So that's completely catchable. So it's actually,

it's all quite competitive. I talk a lot about the FPL Popmini League and our mini league. It's, it's very competitive as well with kind of 30 or 40 points between all of us. So yeah, Sam, talk me through your 72 points because you went quite bold with the captain, I thought. Yeah, that's about your look as well from the bench. Oh yeah. Okay. We'll talk about that in a minute. Yeah. So I was on Bruno a week and then on Friday night I decided that I would try and roll

the dice and just see if I could move the dial a little bit because sometimes when

you're chasing you just have to take a bit of an educated gamble and I kind of thought

well, Bruno, obviously in itself will be a

differential captain over Harlan, but can I just pick somebody that maybe even gets more,

has more potential. So I went with Tiago in the end. And on Saturday, so, Kel's, on Saturday afternoon,

I was nine points behind you because most of your points came on Sunday.

And so I was like, right, this has gone well. And I knew that it was going to take a hit on Sunday because I only have three players to play, whereas everyone else had a lot more and you obviously had your captain to come. But generally, it was a good week. Yes, I did have some luck off my bench. but Jules, that is why good FPL managers put their bench in the correct order.
