FPL Breakfast Club returns for another episode today, this time in the build-up to Gameweek 4.

We will be on air between 11:15am and 11:45am on our YouTube channel, but you can also view the video below.

Regulars Joe and David will be joined by special guest and Scoutcast legend Granville to discuss their plans for the upcoming weekend of action.

Just as Mark did last week, Granville has now hit the Wildcard button and is in the final stages of putting his brand new squad together.

He will take us through the decisions he has had to make over the last few days in the minutes before that all important Gameweek 4 deadline at 11:30am.

We will also hear from Joe and David about their latest plans and bring you the team news for Leicester City vs Liverpool too.

Reds manager Jurgen Klopp hinted that he may start rotating his side in the near future and if he has done that for the trip to Leicester we’ll get the initial reaction.

    Klopp dropping Liverpool best midfielder Keita don't look too clever but we shall see!

    1. Sylas
      8 years, 1 month ago

      We don't have a choice.

    2. Mulder

    4. FlockofSeagulls
      8 years, 1 month ago

      It's Jose's fault.

    5. Davido989
      8 years, 1 month ago

      It's a squad game. He is still only 3 games in. And he's been really good.

  4. My Name Is Pepu
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Rachid Ghezzal OOP? Is he even listed on FPL?

    1. Sylas
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Need help with that rock?

    2. ENZO SZN™
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Looks like RW, with Maddison No.10 & Gray striker.

  5. Fantastisk
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Henderson is the Keïta success today.

  6. the snazzy viking
    8 years, 1 month ago

    where's the breakfast if there's a breakfast club?

    surely you need a breakfast to have a breakfast club

    1. DeathoftheParty
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah you'd think... Otherwise it's morning club. And that's garbage.

      1. the snazzy viking
        8 years, 1 month ago

        indeed, and it's 11:37 am anyway so I'm already thinking about lunch

    2. Adro3
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed. Lack of a full English

    3. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I had hoped it would be three grown men struggling to eat bacon and egg sandwiches with dignity, Miliband style.

  7. Pukki Party
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Liverpool twitter published the lineup about 30 seconds before deadline, playing spurs early kickoff too.

    1. Lone Wolf FPL
      8 years, 1 month ago

      cheers for that info mate

    2. Fantastisk
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Good to know thanks

    3. XabiAlonso
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Il need at least 35seconds to compute and make a decision

    4. Pukki Party
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Anyone know how the lineup on my team is organised after transfers? If you transfer out a player in your starting lineup he will probably be replaced by the transfer in, as long as the formation is fpl standards?

      1. jomikijiq
        8 years, 1 month ago

        yes

        1. Pukki Party

      1. Dynamic Duos
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Well player for player I can't see the bad ones. Tell me who

  13. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 1 month ago

    The breakfast club ended very abruptly.

    I wish Jonty hadn't kept cutting off Granny mid sentence 🙁

    1. Gazpilicueta
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Does Granville have his own youtube? Id watch him.

    2. Whats the Mata?
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Need mark!

    3. Texas Pete
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I just want it to end with a raised fist salute and a blast of Simple Minds.

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        8 years, 1 month ago

        YES! 😀

    4. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Just seems weird doing a segment like that close to the deadline when most folk will be busy looking for line ups and adjusting their teams.

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I enjoyed it. A good distraction.

    5. Syd.
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Cut off in mid stroke

      How disappointing that must have been

  14. Differential C (Mark)
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Gray OOP?

    1. BadgersBoys
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Madison false 9

    2. My Name Is Pepu
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Is he?

      Lineups show him on the left flank.

    3. ENZO SZN™
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Either he or Ghezzal. Maybe both

    4. XabiAlonso
      8 years, 1 month ago

      You spelt poo wrong

  15. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I might be wrong, but I'm sure Ghezzal has played up front before in Ligue 1.

    1. My Name Is Pepu
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Don't remember him playing upfront. He's primarily a winger but also plays in the hole behind the striker.

    2. DeathoftheParty
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm pretty sure Sky has him up top. Not gray or Mads

  16. COYS.
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Salah captain and Robbo to start my week.. cheers

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Ballsy

    2. Amsterhammer
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Good luck. Could pay off. Aguero felt the safe option this week.

  17. Bruno Bruno!!

    2-0 liverpool

    Mane 2 goals

    Robertson 2 assists please

      Firminio to do anything, just... Anything.

      1. Rash

        He starts at least..

    4. Greko82
      8 years, 1 month ago

      This. I will stretch it a bit.
      Mane 3 goals, Robo 3 assists

    5. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nightmare.Shipped robbo for a hit

  18. joeydelucchi
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Given that price rises seem so much more volatile this season ,Walcott 3 rises in 1 week, will this make taking hits more popular and less of a risk as we will need to jump on bandwagons before they are out of reach?

    1. Bruno Bruno!!
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Walcott has done nothing to warrant being transferred in so much people just want an everton attacker

    2. Pep says
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Walcott is an exception given the nature of his transfers. Over a million this week. He was always gonna rise se 0.3m, may even rise again tonight

    3. Holmes
      8 years, 1 month ago

      if playing for team value, hit is the way to go...

  19. Syd.
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Leicesters have the Morgan & Maguire playing together

    This could get messy as there is more speed in a tortoise

    1. FlockofSeagulls
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I really wish drug traffickers would leave our beautiful wildlife alone!

    2. fedolefan
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yep. Bottled the Salah captaincy since I half expected Evans to start

  20. SPorting
    8 years, 1 month ago

    When’s the deadline?

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      8 years, 1 month ago

      In about two weeks

      1. SPorting
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers

  21. ILOVEBAPS
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Howdy everyone!
    I'm tipping a big game from Salah and a blankski from Aguero.
    Good luck all!!

    1. DeathoftheParty
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Go back to bed.

    2. BadgersBoys
      8 years, 1 month ago

      In hoping for 1x goal from Salah. No Pool CS and Mane brace. Kun hatty. Please!

    3. SPorting
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Get in the sea!

    Apologies for the shortened breakfast club everyone. Tthe online meeting service we use suddenly announced the call was ending in 10 minutes - at 11:25!

    So had to make sure we got everything in before 11:35 cut off.

    Will have a chat with Mark about making sure that doesn't happen again next time.

    1. J0E
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      8 years, 1 month ago

      You still get 20 minutes of us though over gameweek deadline. 🙂

      Aiming for full 30 or so next time.

      1. A.T
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Have you thought of starting the show with a different breakfast recipe? You could combine making a fry up with talking about fpl, it would be a unique combination that would attract a different demographic of viewer.

    2. Amsterhammer
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Marks team looks like it could pay off this week if he kept Aub plus Aguero and Salah.

    3. Fantastisk
      8 years, 1 month ago

      No worries

      1. J0E
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Very frustrating though as would have liked to have chatted more to Granville about his wildcard and Mark's one.

        But at least we got the key point in - no Walcott! 🙂

  23. OPTA FPL
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Ghezzal price?

    1. gwitbrock
      8 years, 1 month ago

      5.5

      1. OPTA FPL
        8 years, 1 month ago

        hmm

    2. DeathoftheParty
      8 years, 1 month ago

      5.4

  24. diesel001
    8 years, 1 month ago

    If you are playing Liverpool, City etc. and are at home. Surely the best tactic is to leave the grass a little longer than usual and not water the pitch too much.

    1. Fantastisk
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Fergie used to water log the pitch when Arsenal came to town.

  25. Trilogist
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Is Clyne Injured - not even in the squad...if there was ever any doubt about TAA long term. It looks to be gone.

    1. Marvin.
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He just isn't rated. He was available for sale during the summer. Not a very good player really.

  26. Garfield1001
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on my transfers (-4):

    Mane -> Hazard
    PVA -> Alonso
    Richarlison -> Neves

    Opinions appreciated.

    1. Bielsa's Bucket
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Bit hasty getting rid of Mane and PVA

    2. Paul Huckin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Richarlison Neves looks solid

    3. ILOVEBAPS
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Look good to me. Hope Manè stays quiet.

  27. A.T
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I really hope Liverpool score loads today. Mainly because I support them.

    1. FlockofSeagulls
      8 years, 1 month ago

      This makes no sense.

      1. Adro3
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Haha

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Lmao

  28. FlockofSeagulls
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Ghezzal is that faint sound I make when gargling scotch whiskey.

    1. The Knights Template
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nice

  29. child of God

    Anyone captain hazard

  30. Lukakwho
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Why is there doubt over Zaha starting?

    1. Amsterhammer
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He pulled out of international duty.

      1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I think this is over pay from the national federation.....?? I saw some argument between a few of the players.....

    2. diesel001
      8 years, 1 month ago

      1) Roy Hodgson says he has most of his players available for the visit of Southampton but is keeping the specific team news close to his chest.
      https://twitter.com/FFScout/status/1035506290641043456

      2) Crystal Palace's Wilfried Zaha omitted by Ivory Coast - A source close to the team has told BBC Sport: "Wilfried Zaha has been left out for personal reasons, I can't say more than that."
