Mark and Luke look ahead to Gameweek 20 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) in a bonus video over on our YouTube channel.

The pair discuss Boxing Day’s deadline drama, their decision to opt against playing the Free Hit in Gameweek 19 and when they plan to deploy one of these two allocated chips in the future.

Manchester City rotation roulette, Bernardo Silva‘s (£7.6m) blanks and the pair’s plans for Aaron Ramsdale (£5.1m) are also on the agenda.

You can view their hour-long chat in the embedded video below or via this link.

    Would you do Laca + Ramsdale > CR7 + Bachmann for -4?

    Hi guys, had a strong week with 64 all out (went against using my FH however), i'm in a little pickle this week with Arsenal game off means I can still put 11 out but might scupper my initial plan, I brought KDB in for Salah this week with a view to going back to Salah this week. Still go ahead with that, or anything else pressing?

        Like, you could half expect it, but then on the day, he’s not even IN his living room. You’re calling all over the house, but absolutely no sign of him. You do that for 80 minutes, and you need to have a sit down. And there he is, on the sofa, tv on - he’s got a big bowl of Doritos and a massive smile. You don’t need to check fpl - he’s bagged you 6 points and there’s still time for more.

    I had a terrible week, though now sitting with 2 FT and kind of low on ideas! Any suggestions for using at least 1 FT? 0.4 itb

    DDG (Ramsdale)
    TAA - Dias - Cancelo - James - Alonso
    Salah - Jota - Bilva - Gallagher (Hojberg)
    Antonio (Dennis - Toney)

      Definitely not 1, makes no sense. Line up seems correct. Only way to play Dennis is to bench Bernardo who likely won’t start imo. Toney to King (Dennis leaves for AFCON soon) and upgrade Hjoberg to Gray/Moura etc. or Bilva to Moura and uograde Toney to Scl/Wilson/Watkins
