FPL Family

So despite delivering the Spurs fans a trophy for the first time in 17 years, Daniel Levy has decided to let Ange Postecoglou go - but was he right to do so? And who next to take Spurs to the next level? With Thomas Frank looking odds-on favourite, i'll discuss the pros and cons of that appointment as I see it. Enjoy! - Lee A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing the Podcast!  _________________________         

With Florian Wirtz looking set for a move to Liverpool, I couldn't be more excited! A genuine global superstar with Balon D'Or potential... Arne Slot means business this summer! So if he does land at Liverpool, how will FPL price him? I'll tell you where I think he'll come in and my theory as to how Liverpool can afford to pay the monstrous fee that Leverkusen are demanding Enjoy! - Lee A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing the Podcast!  _________________________         

What a week it's been here at FPL Family. The PL season is over and both Spurs and Liverpool has e lifted trophies, meaning we are both in WONDERFUL moods. For one of us though, it was a very narrow defeat in the FPL Family #TeamLee vs #TeamSam season head-to-head, what a finale! We look back at an incredible season, our eighth in FPL as FPL Family and look forward to our ninth. We'll also reveal our Pre-Season Predictions - who did we think would win the league, get relegated and win the golden boot, back in GW1. All is revealed tonight on FPL Family!

So here it is, the curtain is not quite down on GW37 yet, but we assess the Premier League action so far, with an eye on GW38 - the 24/25 finale! We've had new rules, new chips, new Champions...it's been a roller-coaster season! This week though, Vardy hits his 200th goal in his last game for Leicester City, Everton say goodbye to Goodison, Brentford slip up at home to Fulham and both Spurs and United lose away from home (a little predictably maybe) before they meet in Wednesday's Europa League final. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

Just two weeks to go in FPL and the race for Champions League football is hotting up. Villa squeeze past Bournemouth despite being reduced to 10 men and Newcastle beat Chelsea. Southampton hold Man City to ensure they're NOT the worst team ever in PL history and in doing so, keep Erling Haaland quiet on his return from injury. Elsewhere both Spurs and Man United lose 0-2 at home, demonstrating their focus is clearly elsewhere! A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

LIVERPOOL ARE CHAMPIONS! And with many FPL managers playing their Free Hit chip in GW34, including the both of us, it was a change to make up ground and get that much needed Green Arrow - and boy, did it pay off! We see how we both got on, look at all the weekend's results and who's on our radar for the remainder of the season with pretty much all the major Premier League decision having already been made! A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

With a few games left in GW33, we assess where we're up to so far and how Sam's Bench Boost did this weekend. We finally say goodbye to the Assistant Manager chip, for this season at least, and we look ahead to GW34, where we BOTH will be playing the Free Hit Chip. We talk scores, ranks and a pull apart a first draft of what Lee's Free Hit team looks like.

Liverpool take a step closer to the PL title, particularly as both Arsenal and Forest drop points the chasing pack. Elsewhere, Spurs lose to Wolves, but City put FIVE past in-form Palace after being 0-2 down, supercharged by one of De Bruyne's best performances of the season. We look at the GW's scores and see where we're at in Overall Rank going into GW33.

Long time, no see! Great to be back on the other side of the international break. So much has happened, as is still to happen, in FPL - Sam played the Wildcard this week, so we assess. the fallout and ask in which GW she should use the Bench Boost - GW32 or GW33? Lee can't Bench Boost, because he played the Assistant Manager in GW31, so is it stick or twist for him going into GW 32? We look back at all the weekend's action, including a rare defeat for Liverpool and another disappointing result for Salah owners. Spurs relegate Southampton, Villa's put a dent in Forest's Champions League hopes and Arsenal drop points at Goodison. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos! *************** *Sam Featured on the Official Spurs Instagram Page for International Women's Day: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DG7qCd... _________________________         

As we go into the International Break, both Lee and Sam stumble through Blank GW29 largely unscathed - with Sam owning a debt of gratitude to Forest's Anthony Elanga, as popular FPL captain Chris Wood BLANKS in game with six goals! Elsewhere, Newcastle beat Liverpool in the League Cup, City labour to a draw at home to impressive Brighton, Fulham brush aside Spurs and Arsenal squeeze out a 1-0 win over Palmer-less Chelsea. We look at our teams, scores and players to consider now over the International Break. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos! *************** *Sam Featured on the Official Spurs Instagram Page for International Women's Day: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DG7qCd... _________________________         

With GW28 nearly in the books, we look ahead to GW29 - the GW that contains the Carabao Cup Final and therefore a blank for Liverpool and Newcastle, as well as their would-be opponents Palace and Villa. Neither Lee nor Sam are looking to FreeHit, so how on earth are we going to navigate through unscathed? We'll also look back at the weekend's action, including a missed penalty for Palmer, but two scored for Sarah - as he breaks an all-time FPL record. GOAT. GW scores, teams and overall ranks as usual, including Sam's Assistant Manager thoughts for next week, as she has the chip active. *Sam Featured on the Official Spurs Instagram Page for International Women's Day: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DG7qCdHuedg/?igsh=Z3pwcjB2Y2h2NGo1 A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

In a week that saw Spurs record three back-to-back wins in a row, Sam is in a great mood! Particularly as FPL is going very well for her too. We assess whether the Assistant Manager chip can be called a success for Sam and we look back at the weekend's action - including a Hammer blow to Arsenal's title hopes, another defeat for Cole Palmer's Chelsea and a big win for Brentford at a sorry-looking Leicester City. GW scores, teams and overall ranks as usual, including Sam's Assistant Manager thoughts for next week, as she has the chip active. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

As Liverpool sneak (just) past Wolves, both City and Arsenal both stake their claim and stay in the title race. Forest drop points at Fulham though and Bournemouth continue to impress against Southampton. Elsewhere, Everton win again for those that kept the AM chip on Moyes and Brighton stroll past Chelsea with one of the goals of the season so far from Mitoma. GW scores, teams and overall ranks as usual, including Sam's Assistant Manager thoughts for next week, as she has the chip active. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

After FPL went absolutely OFF last Thursday at the announcement of the upcoming DGW25, Sam and Lee sift through the wreckage of another weekend of footy. Chris Wood keeps being, well, Chris Wood, Liverpool respond with a good win against in-form Bournemouth and Spurs - get this - won a game! GW scores, teams and overall ranks as usual, including Sam's Assistant Manager thoughts for the next two weeks, as she has the chip active. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

Arsenal, City and Liverpool all win this weekend, so it's Nottingham Forest that suffer the most this week, at the hands of a very good-looking Bournemouth side, who are worthy of our attention in FPL. Brentford and Mbeumo are back on radar with an excellent fixture run coming up and Spurs fail to win at home for the seventh successive game - how long has Big Ange got left in the hot-seat? A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

Forest win again to keep the pressure on Liverpool, who themselves smash and grab at the G-Tech stadium to beat Brentford 2-0. Everton's goal-drought comes to an end against a lacklustre Spurs and in-form Bournemouth look very investible indeed, with a well-fought win against high-flying Newcastle. We talk teams, overall ranks and look ahead to GW23. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

And so the hectic festive fixture schedule comes to an end and we take a breather for some FA Cup action next weekend. With Wolves v Forest still to come on Monday, Lee and Sam dissect the 2-2 at Anfield (what a game!) and ask whether the triple-up could now be on for Newcastle. Chelsea and Arsenal stumble again I the title race, but City get back-to-back wins...so should we be going back there? A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

After a few good weeks for Lee and for Sam, how's GW19 going so far and what does Sam make of the "entertainment" at Spurs. Elsewhere, Haaland scores to get City back to winning ways, Liverpool HAMMER the irons for five and Forest march on with another win against Everton. Slightly weird timing this live stream, with GW19 still in play, but we look back  at a busy festive period and ahead to GW20, starting in the new year, on January 4th.  A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

It's FPL Family Derby Day so we give our hot-takes on both Spurs and Liverpool from this afternoon's action. Elsewhere, United lose again under Amorim and Newcastle find some form. Arsenal make light work of a trip to Palace, but it comes at a cost with Bukayo Saka pictured leaving Selhurst Park on crutches, nursing a hamstring injury. We'll talk through possible replacements and ask whether Nottingham Forest are actually IN this title race??! A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

A Ruud awakening for Leicester this weekend, as Isak and Hall haul at St James' Park. Liverpool and Fulham play out a superb 2-2 at Anfield, but Arsenal don't take advantage, as they find Pickford in fine form. Elsewhere, Palace beat Brighton and Wolves fall at home to a last-minute Ipswich winner, which lead to the club SACKING manager Gary O'Neil on Saturday night. What a weekend! A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

What a mad week of FPL - Goalkeeper assists, red cards and goals a-plenty for our assets - but none for Mo Salah and Liverpool as the Merseyside Derby falls foul of the weather. We look at a bonkers week for Lee's team, leaving him with a conundrum with Bryan Mbeumo - keep or sell? - either could happen this week to be honest! We'll look back at the weekend's action and ahead to GW16 A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

Plenty of goals around this week in the Premier League, with Ruben Amorim getting his first win at Old Trafford, in a very good performance by Manchester United. Chelsea and Arsenal also add plenty in their games - with Palmer and Saka both grabbing double-digit hauls for their owners. We look back at all the weekend's action and analyse the key stats ahead of GW14 in midweek. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

With Spurs getting their best result of the season so far at the Etihad, the pressure was on Arsenal and Liverpool to perform - a question they both answered with aplomb! We'll discuss whether Lee's Triple Captain paid off, an important result for Wolves and Amorim's first game as United manager. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

With City faltering again away at Brighton, Liverpool took full advantage by beating Villa 2-0 at Anfield. Elsewhere, Man United continue to flourish in the post Ten-Hag era, with Bruno bagging a cool 17-pointer for his owners. Spurs lose their fifth game of the season, as Ipswich win their first. And we ask whether Sam's wildcard was a hit or a miss in GW11. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

With Arsenal and Man City both slipping up, Liverpool stole a march at the top of the Premier League and go two points clear. Solanke owners were rewarded for their patience with a huge haul at home to Villa and Haaland blanks AGAIN. What now for the big Norwegian? Having already pressed the button, we look at Sam's GW11 Wildcard draft, as she looks to redistribute the Haaland money and bring in Salah, Palmer and co. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos! **Apologies for the slight echo on Lee's mic in tonight's episode**  _________________________         

What a week in FPL, with not a lot of high scores out there! In a week where most captained Haaland, his third blank in a row has us questioning what we could all do with 15m in FPL - but we're not transferring him out ahead of Southampton surely? Elsewhere, Jota goes off injured for Liverpool, Spurs go a goal behind again, but come back again, to put open another impressive offensive display. Watkins and Rogers both score for Villa and Arsenal drop points at Bournemouth on the back of a controversial red card. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

With Haaland and Salah both blanking and Palmer grabbing just an assist, Sara was the premium to have this week - but with that conversation changing almost o n weekly basis, we ask whether patience or 'premium-jumping' is the right strategy going forward. Liverpool top the league going into the international break, Fulham almost upset City and Brentford get a hateful against a sorry-looking Wolves. Up next for Gary O'Neil's men? City and Erlang Haaland...! A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos! _________________________      Vote for us at the FCAs!

A rare Haaland blank meant it was time for those without the big Norwegian to profit and make their moves up the FPL ranks - but with a solitary goal from Salah and no goals or assists for Saka against Leicester, it was those with Cole Palmer that were GW6's big winners. FOUR goals for Cole and it could have been more! Elsewhere Liverpool beat Wolves and Ipswich hold Villa to a 2-2 draw.

After defeats in GW4, Lee and Sam are in MUCH better spirits this week as Liverpool and Spurs both record home GW5 wins! LOADS to discuss in this weekend's big game at the Etihad as City leave it late to salvage a point against 10-man Arsenal. Elsewhere, Villa and Morgan Rogers leave it late against Wolves and Chelsea breeze past a woeful West Ham. We'll look back at all the weekend's action and plan ahead for GW6.

With Liverpool and Spurs both losing 0-1 at home this week, Lee and Sam are finding other reasons to be cheerful. That said, FPL wasn't too much to shout about either - although owners of Gabriel, Haaland and Ollie Watkins will disagree! Lee's questions whether Eze is still worth the price tag now he appears not to be on pens and we ask whether a corner has been turned by Erik ten Hag and Manchester United, or is this just another false dawn.

A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos! _________________________         

Arsenal drop points at home to Brighton and City take full advantage with another Haaland Hat-Trick! Eze also repays the faith kept in him by his owners in a week where clean sheets were at a premium! We'll also look at our teams, GW scores and ask whether Lee's GW3 Wildcard can be considered a success. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

With Haaland splitting the community in pre-season, GW2 was always going to be a GW of the have and the have-nots. And those with Haaland, particularly those with the Triple Captain chip active, did very well indeed! However, those without will argue that the money they saved was spent on other premium assets that did well - like Heung-Min Son, who bagged a brace against a sorry-looking Everton. We'll look back at the weekend's action - and ahead to GW3. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

So we're up and running, with many of the big hitters, demonstrating to us FPL managers why they cost us the big bucks! Mo Salah in particular, over-looked by many FPL managers, grabs his first double-digit haul of the season. Saka responds in kind, with a haul of his own, as Arsenal start well. Elsewhere, Isak captainers are frustrated by Schar's Red card and Bruno posts a 1.1xG at Old Trafford, but has nothing to show for it in FPL.

Sam and Lee are BACK for another season of FPL Family! We start to lock in our drafts, asses what we've learnt in pre-season and ask you guys to make your pre-season predictions! A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________         

Sam and Lee take a deep dive into Midfielders, probably the most talked-about position in FPL.

Lee and Sam are back for their 8th season of FPL Family! With the launch of FPL 24/25 imminent, we've already had plenty of player prices to talk about - as Official FPL tease us with attacking premiums and defensive bargains! We already have FPL's most expensive player EVER Erling Haaland and the biggest price rise EVER in Chelsea's Cole Palmer. Is it too early to lock either of them in? And what of those coming back from the Euros - with Saka, Foden, Watkins, Gakpo, Rodri all going long in the tournament? A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________           

So that's it for this season - City are crowned Champions, Luton are confirmed as relegated and we look back at an incredible season! We also find out whether #TeamLee or #TeamSam takes this year's #FPLFamily wooden spoon trophy - AND we reveal our GW1 predictions! How close were we to predicting who the FPL top points scorers would be? A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________           

With plenty of football still to go in GW37, we look ahead to the finale! It's been a long, tough season and we're at the climax - with Josko Gvardiol owners delighted with his haul against Fulham in this week's main talking point. Arsenal put the pressure back on to City by beating United and Newcastle underwhelm against Brighton - leaving the Isak vs Haaland captaincy debate still on a knife-edge. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________           

After a spirited comeback attempt by Spurs in the FPL Family derby, we're just about still talking to each other! Spurs looked poor though ahead of the big DGW37 and with plenty of injuries to deal with too, we'll look at how we're set up for the penultimate GW of the season - the last big double - and we're both Bench Boosting. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________           

We look back at the weekend's action, which saw (most likely) the end of Liverpool's title challenge and an interesting spat between Salah and Klopp, suggesting not all is well in the Anfield camp. Elsewhere, Newcastle relegate Sheffield United, with Isak and Gordon in superb form for Wildcarders that bought them in. Sam gives us her view from the stands at the North London Derby and we check in on scores and Overall Ranks ahead of the last three GWs of the season. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________           

Phew! What a week of FPL action - and we're only halfway through, with many of us hoping for more points in the big GGW34. We assess how we're doing so far, as well as looking ahead to GW35 - a 'mini-double' with Spurs and Chelsea both playing twice. Lee's Wildcarding too, so we'll share a first draft. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________           

 Tonight we find Sam and Lee both in humble moods, after defeats for Spurs and Liverpool this weekend - compounded by a challenging FPL week - especially for Salah captainers. We look at all the weekend's action and look ahead to how we're shaping up for the big DGW34. A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________           

Another frantic weekend of football comes to an end and we now turn our attention to GW33, with more than a glance over its shoulder to the big upcoming DGW34. Arsenal double-defence continues to pay handsomely for Lee and Sam's frustrated at what could've been for Ryan Ait-Nouri. Scores, Overall Ranks and thoughts for next week all coming up....! A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________           

As the full-time whistle blows on GW30, a week in which many FPL managers hit the Wildcard button - we take a quick breath and get ready to go again in midweek. GW31 rolls round quickly on Tuesday and there's flags and injuries everywhere! Gusto, Lascelles and crucially, Ollie Watkins might be facing some time off the pitch, so could that force Lee into Wildcarding earlier that he would he liked, particularly as he's got no Liverpool! A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our videos!  _________________________           

With GW30 Wildcard's active all over the place, Lee's knee might be starting to jerk - but for now he's holding firm and waiting until GW35. Which, for his team, means transfers become pretty precious between now and DGW34. And this week is no different. Salah in sounds nice, but the sacrifice is potentially huge... A massive THANK YOU for all your support watching, liking and sharing our Podcast!  _________________________           

After mixed results in Gameweek 27 in the FPLFamily household we assess where we are at and how our thinking has changed ahead of Blank Gameweek 29. We also look at the immediate future and consider whether anyone other than Solanke is worth owning from Bournemouth.

We've made this week's Patreon OHANA Podcast available for all to listen!

With plenty of action still to go in GW25, Lee and Sam start thinking about this season's biggest Blank GW to date. Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs and Luton all take a Premier League break, as the former two teams face off in the Carabao Cup Final. We also discuss Haaland's blank in the first of his DGW25 fixtures and Liverpool's injury-ridden win against Ivan Toney's Brentford, with Jota and Darwin Nunez both question marks for the second Liverpool game of the double.
