Ahead of today's deadline Suj & James review last night's thriller (wow, what a game!) as Tottenham beat Everton. How bad were Everton? The slight tactical tweak in Tottenham early in the game, what changed and why James is still seething.
Can Kane be bought ahead of a trip to Bournemouth? Will James sell Son.
Plus plans for GW34 as Suj begins to prep for a bench boost, but lusts for the current bench of his Pod partner and the lads search for a differential to replace Matt Ri...

It seems Suj & James are struggling with their final decisions ahead of GW33. Hits, rolling, FOMO on Mahrez & Mane, there's still plenty to be debated following this mornings s3 ep53 episode.
Plus, the Differentials struggle this week and there's no easy solution to working Phil Foden in to the squad and updates on North v South which includes a storming bench performance for James' South team - yes that said bench!

In your weekly quiz this week is a specific test of a memory, where were you in 2010? From some of the answers you may suspect Suj was drinking for much of the year (James definitely was!)
20 questions all from 10 years ago on the year 2010.
Very best of luck!

Hi Patrons, thank you for the questions you sent in on Slack, we cover FPL assets such as Danny Ings & Adama Traore, issues at Leicester, Sheffield United & Watford, a potential managerial change, the future of virtual FPL games, explaining the 'almost' gag to Suj, reincarnating as an animal & was Asmir Begovic really shit?

In the GW32 Preview Suj & James focus on thoughts & transfers for the FPL Gameweek ahead & the nightmare of rotation with unknown FA Cup ties potentially having an impact.
Does Liverpool's confirmation as Champions change anything...?
Plus there's a big potential benching in James' line up & Harry interrupts to disagree with his choice of captain too, plus updates on North v South & an excellent wildcard for the Differential team

Will this be the last Planet #FPL Derby for the forseeable future?
It's not a question that was asked directly but it's fair to say Suj has the fear for his Hammers following last night's defeat at White Hart Lane. Were there positives that West Ham could take? Suj mentions a surprise key man for the remainder of the season that could help save the Hammers.
While for James a mix of frustration and positives, including his annoyance with the 1st half tactics but positives with a fe...

In this Preview ahead of todays 5pm deadline I activate my wildcard & I suspect I may have inflenced Suj into doing the same! I reveal my unconfirmed draft, my Free Hit team in North v South & Suj & I also pick our Wildcard team for the differentials.
Plus, we talk Jesus, Foden & City assets following Monday's thumping win against Burnley.
And we, or at least I, look forward to the Planet #FPL Derby this evening.

Thank you for all the questions you sent in on Slack, we give them the full rundown with rants on the The Bad (Arsenal), The Ugly (West Ham) & the not quite Good (Tottenham) & the Podcast also includes why there could be a change of chip strategy for James which has come about because of events in GW30 & why avoiding Liverpool could be a sensible play.

Patrons... 20 questions, usual format, Suj stumbling over answers etc. Each question is based on incidents in the first 30 GWs of last season involving corresponding fixtures for games that have not yet been played this season.
Best of luck, let us know how you get on - though no spoilers on the answers please - and we've asked for some feedback about our Patron Podcasts for next week too so we'd be delighted to hear your thoughts.

It's been a while but we pick up & discuss the rubble of our North v South & Differential teams for the first time in 3 months.
Essentially this is how the Final Plan Podcast use to be...
Suj laughably leads the North v South battle by around 200 points but actually the differential team is competing and inside the top million as we launch our differential Bench Boost this Gameweek.
Will FOMO lead to us putting Aguero or Lundstram in our GW30 teams main teams?

Spoiler in the intro & wait until you hear who Suj may be getting in!
James will Bench Boost while Suj is likely to Free Hit & James has his eye on reducing the 33 point deficit on Suj.
Thank you very much for your questions on Slack, we covered them all (we think!)
Among the topics covered... FFP, club finances, press conferences & team leaks, the chances of others closing the gap on Liverpool & Man City next season, the problems with GW38, at what price wou...

We are now at 72 players for the ChampManFPL Patron Champions League & will be split into 8 groups of 9 with fixtures beginning in GW22 (this Tuesday).

There will be no seeding (I mean Suj is currently 2nd in the mini league after 2GWs so what's the point!?)

On this Podcast we caught up with all the questions we had come in for Monday's Episode on Slack, which because we like to go on, we didn't get round to covering.
Among the conversation Chelsea assets seems to come up a lot and there is indecisiveness about what Tottenham may or may not do during the rest of the season.
The weather gets a mention - genuinely this is important - and of course naturally we focus on strategy, looking at kepper combinations for a bench boost, Arsenal ...

We discuss best way of managing GW30 now that we know there are unlimited transfers available to all players. Is it a case of steaming in to the 4 teams with a Double Gameweek or are there alternatives?
Is it even possible to ignore that there are unlimited transfers available?
