Game States | FPL Gameweek 5

Who Got The Assist? FPL Podcast ·

We take a look at the current FPL game state, with a heavily – yet, maybe, temporary – templated player set at the moment meaning differential hauls make all the difference. But, with Gameweek 6 wildcards the popular strategy, we ask: how long will this last? And how should we manage to adapt to the season as it evolves? Then it’s the price point – an eye test warning, followed by the gameweek 5

We investigate how decision-making processes – satisficing vs maximising in behavioural science – are somewhat shaped by our personalities and where it feeds into FPL – and how this has changed now with the new(ish) FPL updates as wildcard season is either here or near for many.

2024/08/26

This week, Tom & Sam zoom in on one troublesome spot in our fantasy teams: the expanded funzone midfield at around 5.0-8.5m. With many unhappy owning the likes of Nkunku and Eze, we wonder who, of any of these guys, is worth investment now or keeping an eye on going forward.There’s the Price Point, where we highlight one bit of eye test info Sam noted this week. And then it’s the Gameweek 3 preview. In the kneejerk, it’s wildcard discussion: lots were popped yesterday, so what do we think of that
