After a long break between deadlines, GW30 is finally here. Josh and Brandon run through the International Break news, but more importantly review how this weekend's FA Cup quarterfinal results impact the fantasy schedule for the home stretch. We're getting closer to understanding precisely where the key blanks and doubles will land, so now it's the business of optimizing out FPL squads and how our remaining chips will be activated. (Crystal Palace are now exploding to the front of every manager's mind.) Injury doubts for players like Haaland, Palmer, and Wood add another layer of complexity, so let's get stuck in with this week's episode. Hail Cheaters!

Hail Cheaters! In the middle of the final international break of the FPL season, and with more than a week still to go before GW30 kicks off, Josh and Brandon have decided to relieve the boredom with something new . . . the Late-Season "Pick a Player" Game Show. The rules are simple: We flip a coin to see who picks first and then the co-hosts run through all twenty Premier League clubs, alternating turns as we go, picking just one player from each team. The goal is to pick the player who we feel will score the most fantasy points from GW30 through the end of the season. That's it. Oh, and managers count, too. Here we go!

Join Josh and Brandon as we recap the highs and lows of GW29, including Josh's Free Hit chip results. Plus, we touch on the League Cup win for Newcastle, what this means for Liverpool's fantasy prospects for the run-in, and how we're approaching the upcoming break for international fixtures and the FA Cup quarterfinals. Then it's time to revisit our beloved feature: Kings of the Gameweek! Looking at the top scorers in GW21–29, we assess what patterns we can discern from the teams, players, and positions that appear in the Fantasy Premier League's often overlooked "team of the week." Hail Cheaters!

Join Josh and Brandon as we recap the Premier League's ups and downs, highs and lows from this weekend. Major disappointment for Cole Palmer punters who can only watch in terror as Salah break's the single-season points record (that he already owned) . . . in March. But it's guaranteed that Salah will not factor in GW29 as Liverpool blank in favor of their League Cup final against Newcastle. Thusly, Newcastle also blank in GW29, as do Aston Villa and Crystal Palace. So, what strategies are best suited to getting through next weekend? Josh has committed to a Free Hit and takes us through his picks for the gameweek, while Brandon will use his stockpile of free transfers to move on some useless players. With that, we take a well-rounded view of what's to come, also weigh in on Manchester City's potential impact, and deliberate heavily on the optimal captaincy options. Hail Cheaters!

Join Josh and Brandon as we look ahead to GW28 and key FPL transfers and captain picks. The main talking point might be manufactured concern over Mo Salah's minutes against Southampton. Is that enough to scare us off the armband or even a Triple Captain chip? Plus, we recap the weekend's FA Cup results and consider what impact the quarterfinal draw will have on the fantasy calendar. A red card suspension for Cunha and head injury for Mateta complicate our thinking, too, with GW29 fixture blanks around the corner—many strategies are are still on the table, with or without a Free Hit. Hail Cheaters!

Join Josh and Brandon as we recap the highs and lows of GW26—including a postmortem on our Assistant Manager chip experiences—then quickly look ahead to Tuesday's midweek GW27 deadline. A key question is on Cole Palmer and whether he can reemerge as an FPL darling with the two best home fixtures of any fantasy pick in the next two gameweeks. Do we dare we give Cole the armband? Plus, we discuss how the GW29 blanks for Liverpool, Newcastle, Aston Villa, and Crystal Palace should impact our upcoming transfer and chip strategies—speaking of, what even is the optimal chip strategy at the moment? Let's dig in. Hail Cheaters!

Join Josh and Brandon as we recap the highs and lows of double GW25, including the continuing saga of the Assistant Manager chip. How are we feeling about Slot, Emery, and the other FPL gaffer options as we head into our first single gameweek in some time? Plus, we take the temperature on our Aston Villa, Brentford, Chelsea, Newcastle, and other debatably under-performing fantasy assets. Have we missed any picks or punts amidst the recent chip-planning chaos? And, of course, we look ahead to key transfers and captaincy options for GW26. Hail Cheaters!
