The premier league returns after the first international break of the year bringing with it the uncertainty about players fitness. After a well received break FPL managers have to strategize for the last 8 gameweeks of the FPL season.
From the highs of double gameweek 29 , we journey though the valley of blank gameweek 30 while the international break is just around the corner.
Lots of planning went into DGW 28 and 29. But there is Blank gameweek 30 where there is only 4 games. I look at these and more in this episode of the pod.

Managers who triple captained Mo Salah were handsomely rewarded with 84 points and that was a crucial differential as managers were deciding between the triple captain chip and the wildcard after the premier league announced a few double gameweeks to come.

Game week 26 preview and the biggest topic is whether or not to triple captain Mo Salah given the games he has at home to Norwich and Leeds.
After a long two week break between the first and last games of gameweek 23, a manager sacking and a low scoring gameweek, the game is finally back and managers are optimistic that things will be better from here going forward
Bruno Fernandes scored twice and assisted twice to reward those who captained him in the gameweek. I review this and give some stats about XG and XA 90 for premier league players and XGA for premier league teams
Jarrod Bowen was the hero for many fpl managers who had him as captain for double gameweek 21. Now double gameweek 22 has been announced with even more teams - 8 - having two games as against 4 the last times.

A week of postponed fixtures (again). No one actually knows how best to navigate this period, but wise to take it gameweek by gameweek. Many managers, myself included couldn't complete transfers before the gameweek 19 deadline as the FPL servers crashed just before the deadline,

1,3,5 that's the number of Premier League games potponed in the last 3 gameweeks and there could be more given the late postponement from the last gameweek. As FPL managers try to get in as much players in their squads as possible, I look at possible options. follow on twitter @fantasygist
Covid continues to surge in the premier league and affect the schedules.It was a gameweek full of penalties and all were scored and were crucial especially for the big three of Chelsea, Liverpool and Man City.

Game week 15 ended with drama at Goodison park with Everton getting their first win in 9 games. Richarlison had 2 goals ruled out for offside by VAR but ended up scoring the equalizer before Damarai gray scored the injury time winner. This was the order of the week with lots of substitutes scoring and other injury time goals.
