Breakfast Club is back this morning in its usual slot.

It’s a live stream/podcast with a difference this week as the Fantasy Premier League deadline has already passed, so the focus will be less on Gameweek 33 than on the fixtures ahead.

From 11:15 am we will be live on our YouTube channel, and in the embedded link below, discussing plans for the mini-Double Gameweek 34 and beyond.

Joining Joe today are the site’s deputy editor Neale, in for the absent David, and former FPL winner Simon March.

They’ll reveal their strategies for the Wildcard, Bench Boost and Triple Captain chips and highlight some of the players that are catching the eye for the season run-in.

      I hope he took his shirt off due to frustration and gets a YC 😛

    On wc. Which option?

    a) Laca + Sterling
    b) Aguero + KDB

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      a

    2. Champ
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      A

    3. Dave Bauer
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      All about those As

  3. gilean
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Is it crazy to go with both Auba and Laca on a WC? Also to go without City assets on WC?

    Ryan Foster
    TAA Kolasinac Valery Duffy Doherty
    Eriksen Son Mane Deulofeu Hojbjerg
    Kane Auba Laca

    0,5 ITB

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      It’s a good idea. Emery said they either play alone or together based on fitness. If you get them together you are on it. However I had both earlier in the season and was really disappointed even when they both played

    2. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      That's what I have now. Aguero will replace Auba unless some mind changing performance tomorrow

    3. Dave Bauer
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      If you’re chasing and need differentials, it could work. But if you’re protecting a lead and / or have a high OR and want to protect it, yes I think that’s all insane.

      1. gilean
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        I'm 20 points behind in my ML

  4. Champ
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone getting Leno on WC.

    1. Sterling Malory
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I don't have WC but I don't see the appeal. Arsenal are poor defensively, especially away from home.

      Kola makes more sense, at least he offers attacking threat.

      1. DAZZ
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Yes but arsenal have the second best defensive record behind man city in 2019, so the poor defensively argument is invalid,but i do agree that Kola over Leno still a better option

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          concede loads away from home

        2. JohnnyMagrinho
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Just because Arsenal have done a bit better defensively in recent games doesn’t mean they’re not still a bad investment regarding defenders.

          They always look like they’ll concede especially on their travels.

          5 clean sheets all season in the league? Great clean sheet potential there.

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Kola playing OOP and don't trust Arsenal defence

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Seriously considering that. He has Brighton home gw 37 so rotates with Ryan better than Foster.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        They at least have potential to improve their away form and should have motivation also.

    4. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Have kola as my arsenal defensive cover

  5. the german
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Any thoughts appreciated.

    Foster ryan
    Robbo kola holebas valery duffy
    Sterz mane son deulo hojbjerg
    Kane laca jimmy

    1. Sterling Malory
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I don't think you need Kane and Son.

      Looks great otherwise.

      1. Jebiga
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        How on earth ? The best next 5 fixtures in PL 🙂

    2. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Agree with above, son not needed if you have kane, think there will be mid rotation from spurs

  6. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    On WC

    A) Laca + Doucoure/Deulofeu
    B) Deeney + Eriksen

    1. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      B imo

      Im going with Deeney & Son.

    2. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      A for me, not a fan of the eriksen pick

      1. DV8R
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        What if it was Son instead of Eriksen?

  7. EMBOLOFAN
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    surprised to see kane in so many teams. has worse per minute xg than vardy lol

    1. fr3d
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      He will be in yours too by the end of the week

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        doubt it

        1. fr3d
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          😉

    2. Jealous Viper
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Immediate match against Hud appeals greatly, probably the best cap next week. Then has a double and plays West Ham who he usually does well against. After that, one can decide to let him go

      1. F_Ivanovic
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Duffy or Ryan best captain option next week.

    3. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      5 home games, double in 35, on form, nailed. Whats not to like?

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        12.5m for oop striker whose involvement in goal opportunities is comparable to some mid table players

        1. FPL Pillars
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Who’s always up there for the golden boot, go figure.

          1. EMBOLOFAN
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            has been lucky this season, overperforming

  8. gilean
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Arguments for choosing Auba over Laca?

    Best argument I have at the moment is that I have to use up all the money XD

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      better player

      1. gilean
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Not sure if that is true

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          ok

      2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Laca > Auba any day of the week

    2. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I think i have settled on auba, more explosive laca seems a bit more slow and steady in terms of points

  9. Jealous Viper
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Still tinkering around. How does this look

    Leno Ryan
    Robbo Duffy Dohety Valery Kiko F
    Mane Son Sterling JWP Doucure
    Kane Jimenez Deeney

    Plan to BB gw 35. Also still looking for how to fit Salah in

    1. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Not sure about doherty or son, salah would be tough to shoehorn in there given the spread of funds

    2. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      What's chances of Kiko playing twice?

      1. Jealous Viper
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Kiko could still become a Wolves def, either Saiss or Bennett depending

        1. kalmoffit
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Not saying he won't
          Looking for ITK opinion

    3. Feeling_blue
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Easiest way to get Salah in there is to downgade Son

      1. ritzyd
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah, that could work

  10. ritzyd
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    On WC planning BB35, will do knockaert to jwp next week. thoughts please?

    Lloris - ryan
    Taa-kola-duffy-valery-laporte
    Sterling-mane-fraser-knocmaert-camasara
    Kane-auba-jiminez

    1. Jealous Viper
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      A bit worrief about TAA if Gomez is back. Your TV must be great

      1. ritzyd
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Tv only around 102.8 ish but bought a few of those cheap (jiminez, mane, for example)

  11. Champ
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone else worried deeney may have reduced minutes on the dgw. I am a bit

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      not unduly concerned as i’d never consider owning him

    2. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Think he is first choice so dont see it personally

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Looking to get someone else than Jimenez and he was the main target, now uncertain. Chasing against Jimenez owner and I don't own him atm. Not happy to pay full price.

  12. Jebiga
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    My last one and pretty much like this team:

    Loris
    Laporte, TAA, Dunk
    Sterling, Son, Bernardo Silva, Jota
    Kane, Lacazete, Jimenez

    Sub: Foster, Kolasinac, Deulofeu, Bednarek

    1. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Bernardo Silva pick a bit meh

      1. Jebiga
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        I think hes one of the best players in city this season.

    2. Stoic
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      No Pool attack ?

      1. Jebiga
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        No before gw36

        1. Jebiga
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          *not

  13. Gringo Kid
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    A) Verthongen and Valery
    B) Trippier and Bednarek?

    1. Jealous Viper
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      B

    2. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Trippier rotation puts me off, spurs have so many games over the next few weeks so could see him rested vs hudds

    3. Stoic
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      A
      Vert nailed

  14. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Tempted by Salah on WC now since no one has him..

    Salah + Deeney

    OR

    Mane + Laca

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      They will by 36 you imagine

    2. Jebiga
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      No pool before 36
      Only taa

    3. JohnnyMagrinho
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Haha. 3rd highest owned player in the game.

      But sure, go for Salah as he’s obviously a differential 😉

    4. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Have exactly the same dilemma and im leaning towards A.

  15. Wally banter
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Is lacazette suspension in europe over?

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Considering he played the previous game you'd assume so.

  16. Karan_G14
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Kola, Foster & Salah
    or
    Trippier/Laporte, Ederson/Lloris & Mane

    Might need Salah for TC in 36 so that is a big consideration.

    1. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Probably the salah one actually, dont see any huge advantage in the spurs/city dgw in 35 so just as much chance of kola/foster doing the business

      1. Karan_G14
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        I agree with you

    2. Feeling_blue
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Definitely the former. Lots going Mane over to Salah to save funds but if Salah explodes it would be difficult to get him in and would take at least one hit. If Salah is playing poorly then easy to downgrade to Mane for TC on 36 or even switch Sterling/whoever your second mid is for Mane and then have treble Pool vs Hud in 36.

      1. Karan_G14
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Yup the TC is my main consideration and I dont see much upside in the upgrades I can make by not having Salah.

  17. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Hazard to Sterling or Son?

    1. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      As a stand alone option sterling, no question

      1. Sandy Ravage
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks

  18. Feeling_blue
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    First WC draft, thoughts? BB35 and TC36

    Foster - Ryan
    TAA - Kolasinac - Doherty - Dunk - Valery
    Salah - Sterling - Jota - Deulofeu - JWP
    Kane - Lacazette - Jimenez

    This leaves exactly 0.0 ITB. I'd consider havign Camarasa for 34 and then switching to JWP for 35.

    1. Jebiga
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Why on earth salah over aguero ?

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        maybe he prefers Kane, Laca and Jimenez, as do I - why Aguero over Salah?

        1. Jebiga
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Bacause pool will get 0-0 in next two games 🙂

    2. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Very nice although triple wolves seems overkill

      1. Feeling_blue
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        I agree although not sure on better mid priced mids so would either mean downgrading Salah to Mane and upgrading Jota to a Spurs mid. Could go Duffy over Doherty although 3 Brighton defenders seems like overkill unless I did Ryan and Doherty to Leno and Duffy say

        1. ritzyd
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          The Leno and duffy option seems preferable to me

    3. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Looks really good.

      My team has Deeney, Son, Hojbjerg & Robbo over your Laca, Deulofeu, JWP & Doherty.

  19. Stoic
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    On WC
    1) Laca + Deulo/Doucoure
    2) Eriksen + Deeney

    Kane and Son nailed already in my team
    Really like Spurs fixtures and Deeney >Deulo

    1. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      If you have kane and son, eriksen as well is too much

  20. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Looking at Spurs coming fixtures, surely Kane gets rested in the Huddersfield game?

    or is he destined to play every minute of every fixture until the end of the season?

    1. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I think he will want golden boot, new stadium, i think he plays as much as possible!

    2. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Unlikely but possible. More likely Son will be rested I think.

    3. Dannywaz
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Kane rested lol

    4. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I think the Huddersfield fixture screams 'Champions League hangover' at the very least. I expect to see a tired Spurs performance grinding out a narrow win, as opposed to a dominant display. It's what's putting me off captaining a Spurs player this week.

      1. ritzyd
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        They do have a tendancy to be worse after CL games, good point.

      2. EMBOLOFAN
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        spurs arent dominant vs anyone

  21. Gomolon
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    On WC, like this team but is the DEF too weak with 2 SOU? (Bednarek enables Mane)

    Ryan / Foster

    Doherty / Kolasinac / Duffy / Valery / Bednarek

    Sterling / Mane / Son / Doucoure / JWP

    Kane / Lacazette / Jiminez

    £0.0 ITB

    1. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Tasty.

  22. SHOOTER MCGINN
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Ryan
    Foster
    Kolasinac
    Laporte
    Robertson
    Dunk
    Bednarek
    Doucoure
    De Bruyne
    Salah
    Son
    Hudson-Odoi
    Jiminez
    Kane
    Lacazette

    Current 15 trying to fit Kane and Salah. Not bad but maybe one too many comprises.

    1. bhh
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      If you switch Robbo to Trent you might be able to get an extra million to get someone better elsewhere

      1. SHOOTER MCGINN
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Bit worried about rotation now after he got taken off yesterday when they needed to win.

        1. EMBOLOFAN
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          dont be

  23. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Kun triple cappo in GW 38 to get a massive rank boost.. who's with me 😀

    1. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Kane also up there with him for GW38.

      1. Wally banter
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        kane against everton same GW

        1. kalmoffit
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          2-6 at Everton.

    2. bhh
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      If Cardiff have already dropped then a Man U asset might be what I go for

      Nothing to play for though with Liverpool having the league wrapped up.

    Looking forward to seeing everyone's teams this week. Definitely going to be more variety in them than with the GW32 squads

    Sterling • Mane • Son • Jota • JWP
    Kun • Lacazette • Jiminez

      Very similar to mine below.

    2. Lazaretti
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Very good.

  28. Dannywaz

    Vardy

    1. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years

      I agree

    RMBBT

    Foster - Gunn
    Trippier - Kolasinac - Holebas - Valery - Bennett
    Sterling - Mane - Son - Deulofeu - JWP
    Kane - Lacazette - Jimenez

    Ryan and Murray will be in there for Gunn and Jimenez in DGW 34.

    Thoughts? 🙂

      Is it worth -4 for Murray perhaps having an extra game

      Not really a fan of planning hits, an injury could throw everything out of the window.

      Otherwise not a bad team. Reckon Tripps will play both games?

    No love for the Doc? Is that because people think he will get rested? I got him at 4.4 so Im not sure if I will find better value anywhere else for that money, and he has decent fixtures with a double as well.

      If you have him at 4.4 defo keep - no brainer.
