Summary

The final international break of this Premier League season is here to provide some much-needed distance from what has been a brutal and exhausting run of gameweeks. So, as we briefly step away from the nonstop strategizing and transfer planning, this episode is the perfect moment to reassess what we actually know to be true about the 2020–2021 fantasy season, and how we can use that knowledge to approach (or simply enjoy) the final stretch. We consider the diminished importance of premium FPL assets, the greater variety of mid-priced options, and the relentless pursuit of form players over merely chasing last week's points. Just how abnormal has this season been? Plus, we gauge how successful our "Make Fantasy Fun Again" approach has been during an otherwise chaotic year around the world.

The Cheaters will return next week with a full GW30 preview, complete with injury news, transfer targets, and captaincy favorites. Poku Forever!

0:00.0	This FPL season has definitely been go, go, go, a nonstop hustle all the time.
0:07.0	Matches, deadlines, unexpected blank and double game weeks, on top of everything the real world has had in store.
0:14.0	Sometimes you need a moment to turn off and hit reset.
0:17.0	That's when you reach for Coors Light. It's made to chill.
0:20.0	For me personally, supporting Fulham during this last year has been a true roller coaster ride.
0:25.0	Honestly, when that Adama Troiori goal flew past Ariola and the 92nd minute of Game Week 31, the only thing that saved my mental state, the only thing that calmed my nerves was cracking open at Coors Light.
0:37.2	There's only one beer out there
0:38.4	that's literally made to chill, and that's Coors Light. The mountains on the bottles and cans even
0:42.9	turn blue when your beer is cold. That way, you always know when it's time to chill. When you
0:48.4	need to hit reset, just open a Coors Light, it's mountain cold refreshment made to chill.
0:53.7	And listen, everyone, summer is pretty
0:55.5	much here. It's about to get hot in New York. An ice cold Coors Light is such a perfect way for me to beat
1:01.7	that summertime heat. Coors Light is the one I choose when I need to unwind. So when you want to hit
1:07.8	reset, reach for the beer that's made to chill.
1:11.3	Get Coors Light and the new look delivered straight to your door with Drizzly or Instacart.
1:16.5	Coors Brewing Company, Golden, Colorado.
1:18.3	And as always, L. Cheaters, welcome to the Always Cheating Podcast. My name's Josh. I'm here with Brandon.
1:45.5	Brandon, how are you?
1:49.3	Hanging in there, Josh, the season rolls on.
1:51.3	The blank Game Week, 29.
1:53.5	I'm thrilled that it's behind us.
1:59.2	I think what's good is a lot of managers actually came out with some really good scores. And some players that were predicted to do well in 29 absolutely did do well.
