Episodes
Building Trends | IB2
The second international break has arrived, and with it the second data review of the #fpl campaign as we hit GW10 and therefore over a quarter of the season gone.
Tom & Sam look at several runners and riders in the data to interrogate how this season is progressing, plus ask: has Haaland has started his annual slump?

Ebbs and Flows | GW10
As the #fpl season hits double digits, the perceived wisdom seems to be to just get lots of DefCon defenders and you never need to worry again; how true is that? Tom and Sam discuss.
Plus still more forwards action in form Vs fixtures, people do housekeeping in the Offramp and can Isak or Palmer challenge Haaland for the armband?
And will either of us buy the Swede?
If you enjoyed this, leave
The Value Of Money | GW9
Tom & Sam get straight to the point and start with Joao Pedro replacements: who's moonwalking in for us?
Onto form Vs fixtures (is Tav obvious), the Offramp and Haaland is the captain again (probably).
And then the key talking point: a tricky week creates yet more possible injuries for #fpl managers, so we survey the landscape to try to figure out what the impacts are for us.
Especially interes
Scouting The Options | Gameweek 8
Transfers in and out feel a little academic thus far, so this week Sam & Tom take a little look into two price brackets which are of growing interest to #FPL managers: the ~5.0m defenders and the "third striker" (including
junking the spot) to help with planning and to assist in making those decisions when it comes to it.
Plus a tricky week for captaincy despite quite a heavy template at th
Back in the Rhythm | Gameweek 7
After a good (Sam) and bruising (Tom) return to FPL, we’re back into the rhythm ahead of Gameweek 7.
But who’s made early moves? Hmm.
Either way, we’re here to preview the weekend ahead with Brighton dominating the transfers in still, the likes of Bruno shedding owners in the Off Ramp, and surely a slam dunk captaincy for Haaland.
Plus in the talking point: Sam's therapy chaise longue is in ses
Back To Business | FPL Gameweek 6
Hey you, you’re finally awake.
Yes, the longest international break in history is finally nearing its conclusion and us #FPL managers are awakening from our slumber, meaning Tom & Sam are back to finally preview Gameweek 6!
We've got man flu but we power through.
Following on from our pod before our week off, we’re going from macro to micro as we look ahead to the #fantasypremierleague return,
Unpredictable Times | International Break 1
Join Sam and Tom on a classic WGTA deep dive as we look through the #FPL data generated from the first 5 gameweeks to ask how this, it's fair to say, unpredictable season is unfolding.
Plus some nominees for players to watch, and we suppose a quick at how our wildcards ended up.
We'll take a break in the middle week of international break, so we'll be back to preview #fantasypremierleague GW6 on
Pressing MORE Buttons | #FPL Gameweek 5
Sam's on Wildcard! But is Tom joining him?
After a Triple Captain disappointment for the former and a Free Hit of objective failure and subjective success for the latter, could yet more buttons be pushed by the WGTA cohosts?
Either way, the regulars remain the same: form Vs fixtures, the off ramp and the (narrower) captaincy debate ahead of #fantasypremierleague GW5.
And then... wildcards.
Pressing Buttons | FPL Gameweek 4
After the first “mid” week of the #fantasypremierleague season for many, Sam & Tom look through the varying responses managers are taking – from Free Hits, through Wildcards, to just riding it out.
Tom’s Free Hit is active for 4 as planned – sort of – and Sam’s had a look at the counterpart wildcards which are live out there.
Additionally, a transfer window roundup, in Form vs Fixtures we run t
The Rollercoaster Continues | Gameweek 3
After another blockbuster week for Sam and one where Tom founds how how it feels to be underwhelmed with a triple digit score, both of us are likely to have chips active!
We cover Sam's dilemma (free hit or wildcard?), which helps us inform form Vs fixtures and also figure out who's worth the same in the Offramp.
Plus a discussion on triple captaincy on Haaland this week and our teams for #fant
Off To A Flyer | FPL Gameweek 2
After an opening weekend of ridiculously good (Sam) and moderate (Tom) success, we pick over the wreckage of the first dose of 38 #fantasypremierleague Gameweeks.
We'll discuss form vs. fixture for #FPL picks; the Offramp (are player being sold too early; should any be being sold at all?); the main talking point revolving around standard advice on not overthinking gameweek 1 and not thinking it's
LFG! | FPL Gameweek 1

- Further comment on the pricing structure – has anything changed now we’ve played around with it a bit more?
- Bruno/Haaland/Gabriel – who’s in? Who’s
Here We Go Again! | 26/27 #FPL Preseason
WGTA IS 10!
Welcome back assisters. Tom & Sam return on #fantasypremierleague 2026/27 launch day, dusting off their mics and shaking off the rust to kick off our 4 weeks of preseason fun and frolics before the Premier League officially kicks off in mid August.
On our first pod back, it’s mostly hot takes and vibes as we react to the game’s relaunch:
- What’s our view of the prices this yea
End Of Premium Picks? | 25-26 Season Review
It’s the final WGTA of 2025/26 before we break for summer.
Tom & Sam are in to review their Gameweek 38s and their own seasons – what went well what didn’t? – before launching into an analysis of the 2025/26 season in classic WGTA style.
Looking at the data, we evaluate points scoring in #FantasyPremierLeague this year and how underperforming premiums – who may be a fading force in FPL – and
Final Day Frolics | #FPL GW38
Ahead of the final day, Sam and Tom are in to look over the fixture list, do the usual last day ritual walk down memory lane, and pick out some players who might be on the menu as last gasp punts for those chasing.
Plus the finale of the one week punt and the last captaincy discussion of the season before we unveil our probable final sides.
We'll be back one more time this season next week to wr
Penultimate Push | #FPL GW37
Sam's joined by Tom back from paternity leave to preview the last-but-one #fantasypremierleague gameweek as we try to spot players who'll give managers that final push 🫸🏻
Which Arsenal picks are the best? Which other games might we target players in? And how might that differ depending on your FT situation?
Plus our regulars: #fantasyfootball captaincy - quite a tough one this week - and one we
Eagles Landing? | #FPL DGW36 (with Mo (FPL Trophy))
Sam is joined by Mo in Tom's absence this week, as we delve into the final Double Gameweek of the #FPL season.
But the key question is, is it anything to actually get excited about?
We preview DGW36, which (if any) Palace players are worth the punt for #fantasypremierleague managers, or are there some more appealing options outside of those with the Double.
With chips left on the table, are w
Premium (Under?) Performance | #FPL GW35
Sam & Tom continue the meta discussions on a week where many WC32ers (we'll get to WC35, don't worry!) are set for gameweek, this time focusing on how #fantasypremierleague premium assets have perhaps failed to perform this year and if it's a one off or a start of a wider trend.
Then it's into previewing the weekend of #fantasyfootball, with WC35 picks and transfer targets analysed to understand
Bye Bye BB? ~ FH Time! | BGW34
As a - rather successful, thanks to Brighton defence! - #FPL bench boost week comes to its conclusion, Sam & Tom are in to paradoxically figure out if it's time for #fantasypremierleague to sunset the chip in favour of a shakeup.
Press conferences also don't escape our scrutiny, as the lack of information regarding Joao Pedro sticks in the craw for many #fantasyfootball managers.
Then it's the r
Twin Doubles | #FPL DGW33
Sam & Tom return post wildcarding into near-identical teams to preview the #fantasypremierleague double gameweek 33 to come - the biggest of the year - to run the rule over our set teams as well as discuss free hit and alternative picks for those using other chips (FH, WC) or none at all going into the weekend.
Plus the usual one week punts and our #fantasyfootball captain for the weekend (erm, H
Play Those Chips | #FPL GW32
After a very long break, Sam & Tom are back as we finally know the FA Cup semi finalists and therefore the identity of teams doubling in #fantasypremierleague DGW33 and blanking in BGW34.
We update on that, and run through some potential approaches you may take depending on your chip situation, with the main routes discussed. And how worried should you be if you've taken a route less travelled?
The Season So Far | #FPL International Break (with Tom Campbell)
WGTA are joined by special guest Tom Campbell for a more "zoomed out" episode as we lurch into a 3 week break from #fantasyfootball.
In this edition, we run the rule over the runners and riders for the fabled 200 Club, asking who might make it beyond the velvet ropes this year.
We also discuss our impressions of what's gone on with #fantasypremierleague generally this year. DefCons have changed
The Blank Is Nigh | #FPL BGW31
Ahead of the much publicised blank 31, and also the beginning of the #fantasypremierleague end game for this season, Tom and Sam run through the possibilities for this week depending on where you are with your chips - with uncertainties (which we’ll mention) still hanging over one game still next weekend.
We caution against wildcarding immediately when the game reopens look at the #fantasyfootb
Let's Get Back On Track | #FPL GW30
Following the FA cup results Sam & Tom are in to look figure out what the results mean for those all important #fantasypremierleague blanks and doubles given what we know so far.
Plus a quick look at how European turnarounds may affect the transfer decisions of many a #fantasyfootball manager ahead of the weekend.
Additionally, with the upcoming blank gameweek 31 in our sights, we profile a
Midweek Madness | #FPL Gameweek 29
A Sunday night pod awaits for Tom & Sam as the midweek #fantasypremierleague Gameweek 29 hares into view due to the FA Cup 5th round taking place next weekend.
Due to the rapid turnaround, on the agenda this time it’s a straightforward affair – and maybe a shorter edition – as our running order takes in our Gameweek 28 results, what our intentions are with doubts swirling over Erling Haaland’s
Gearing Up For The Blank | FPL Gameweek 28
Sam & Tom are in to focus ahead again , as we build on last week's chat on the template shift to drill down into the key midfielder picks getting #fantasyfootball managers excited as the meta shifts again.
With a focus on gearing up for blank gameweek 31, which of these - over the next 4 - do we prefer as part and parcel of our #fantasypremierleague midfield makeup?
Plus in form vs fixtures, som
You Wanted Variety...? | #FPL GW27
Sam & Tom are in recording during the final game of #fantasypremierleague #dgw26, so cheering or wincing during the stream is likely!
We'll be looking ahead to #gw27, as many #fantasyfootball managers probably are after a below average double, and asking what shifts we've already seen to the template (causing the pain!) and anticipating how we'll start to gear up for the blank in 31.
Plus a
Gabriel Triple Time? | #FPL DGW26
Join Tom – and some voicenotes from Sam! – for a brief solo pod talking through how we did in 25 and some plans for #fantasypremierleague double gameweek 26.
With most of us set for Arsenal players, eyes turn to two follow up questions: do we triple captain Gabriel? And who else do we look at this #fantasyfootball gameweek?
Plus an update on one week punt and our plans for the week ahead.
Short
Watching The Double | #FPL GW25
Join Sam & Tom, who'll be live as the second half of EFL semi final between Arsenal and Chelsea plays out behind them - telling us who of the two has a #fantasypremierleague double gameweek 26!
As a result, we'll try to leave off definitive chat as long as possible, instead focusing on our results from #fpl gameweek 25, a transfer window roundup, and a short chat about 50/50s and a refresher on h
Utter Carnage | #FPL GW24
Sam and Tom are in slightly earlier (due to work commitments) for this week's WGTA, as we first off try to make sense of the mad events between 10:49-11:00am on Saturday morning after the leak that Haaland and Foden weren't starting for City.
We chat about what we did, how we felt and ultimately how that - thankfully, now rare - event can get the goat of even the most seasoned #fantasypremierle
Incoming Swings | #FPL GW23
After a less than ideal weekend of #FPL, Sam and Tom are in to preview both the upcoming #fantasypremierleagye gameweek and to expand on the upcoming fixture swing highlighted last time out: which are the teams and players to keep an eye on, and why is Bruno Fernandes a must own in #fantasyfootball?
Plus a form Vs fixtures based on those swings, captaincy corner - a quiet one - and one week punts
The Eye Of The Storm | #FPL GW22
The hectic festive period ends as we #fpl managers enter a period of transition between that and the fixture swing and incoming chip season to come as we come to the cusp of the business end to the #fantasyfootball season.
Tom & Sam look over the potential forecast for the next little while, with Sam explaining the picture for chips and giving some possible dates and routes for us to consider.

A Red Christmas | Gameweek 18

It's teams in red and players who might be in the red zone in focus this week, as we tackle both #fantasyfootball managers' conun

Sam & Tom are joined by FPL General to preview both #fantasyfootball GW17 and the upcoming late December calendar in our annual festive edition!

So Many Possibilities | FPL Gameweek 16
Off the back of Bruno Fernandes magicking them a #fantasyfootball green arrow out of what was looking like a disaster, Sam and Tom are buoyed and in high spirits as we get given our 5FTs due to Afcon and wonder how to spend them 🤔
This episode, we take a look through the popular ins and outs in #fantasypremierleague transfers (e.g.g Bruno in, Mateta out) and analyse if they're moves with merit
Use It Or Lose It | FPL Gameweek 15
Tom & Sam reconvene midway through a #fantasyfootball gameweek to bring you another quick dip into the world of #fantasypremierleague as yet another deadline approaches.
This time, we focus on potential uses for managers’ FT(s) as we encounter a fairly unique “use it or lose it” situation with them as we reach the feted Afcon Free Transfer refresh, putting managers all up to 5FTs simultaneously

After rather successful weeks for once, Tom and Sam look ahead to GW13 with plenty of chips being played by #fantasypremierleague managers.
We look at free hits on the table and try to figure out balance vs. aggression, check out wildcards and discuss the merits of TCing the #fantasyfootball robot.
Plus lots of short and long term picks in form Vs fixtures, one week punt and what we're doing wit
The Restart Flag | FPL Gameweek 12
It's time once more to think about #fantasypremierleague as the final international break of 2025 ends with a few notable players now in doubt for GW12!
Sam & Tom look over the news from the break and ask if and how #fantasyfootball managers should react, especially as, ironically, a couple of those flagged in Semenyo and Gabriel form core parts of this year's template.
Then form Vs fixture
A Weaker Template? | FPL IB3
Sam and Tom are in during the interlull (sorry we're a day late!) for a zoomed out pod diving into how the #fpl template is fitting together this campaign: is it actually as weak as we've been thinking? and might anyone break through?

And the main topic feeds into our teams, with some stick or
Midfield Meta Shift? | FPL Gameweek 9
As FPL returned after international break, we’re here to assess the fallout as Haaland rolls on, Mateta bags a hattie (and could’ve had more) but others falter – and Ange is shown the door after just 39 days.
First we give a mention of the dawning Dyche era at Forest and its possible fantasy football ramifications, and then it’s on to our main topic this week: has the midfield actually disappoint
Back To Basics | Gameweek 8
Normal service resumes as FPL returns this weekend!
Following our in-depth look at analytics and this season last week with Si Analytic (do go check that out ICYMI!), today Tom & Sam go into the Gameweek 8 preview.

Analytick Boxes | FPL IB 2 with Simon FPL Analytic
Continuing our series of international break guest episodes, this time Simon is back to join Sam & Tom to cast his analytical lens over a few areas topping FPL managers’ agendas this season.
Covering thoughts some key men’s rise and fall, defcons, the next bloc of 4 games and Sam’s now active wildcard, it’s a nice relaxed international break
Swing To Win | Gameweek 7
Come join us for some celebration as Sam’s TC goes gangbusters, and some (now customary) schadenfreude as Tom manages to bench a 13 point haul from his man Gabriel.
Then stay for a discussion on fixture swings in #fantasypremierleague, as we identify 3 kinds of swing – mini, midi, maxi – and how all of these feed into managerial strategies as we try to achieve success as this game.
Plus in f
Chips Away | FPL Gameweek 6
Tom’s pressed the button after a all-time bad start, and Sam’s probably triple captaining Haaland. So it’s an interesting week for us on the pod, with our #fantasyfootball futures in the balance as we play around with our chips and – especially in one of our cases – try to start again.
We look through all the options for chips, and explain why we’re taking the paths we’ve chosen: will it work f
The New Meta? | Gameweek 5
Join Tom & Sam to discuss if the tectonic plates of #fantasypremierleague have shifted. Is Haaland the new king? Do we fade Mo? Are Villa and Forest now villains? And is DefCon fuelled big at the back sustainable?
Plus many players under the microscope in form Vs fixtures, one week punt update and perhaps a shorter captaincy calls chat this round.
Whether you’re new to us or returning this year,
A Perfect Storm(?) - Gameweek 4
As a return to Premier League action gallops into view, Sam’s back on the pod to assist Tom in this week’s preview of Gameweek 4.
And it’s an interesting one, with transfer window deals potentially shaking things up, injuries and managerial changes around the place, and, for some fantasy football managers, buttons being pressed when it comes to Wildcards and Free Hits.
We’ll discuss all of t
Catching Up With Nick | #FPL Gameweek 4
We’re in for a Sunday night edition this week and this time – as we’re in international break, Sam’s on holiday and Tom’s about to go too – Tom take the opportunity to catch up with the very first WGTA cohost, Nick!
We haven’t got much of an agenda in this fireside chat which mostly covers discussion on how FPL has evolved in the 9+ years since we founded WGTA, how our games have changed (espec
A Torrid Start | Gameweek 3
It’s not been the best start for us. But why? Time for a quick examination to see if we’ve just been plain unlucky or if we feel like we’ve got it totally wrong as the early couple of weeks bring nothing but below average scoring to kick off this week’s show.
Then, it’s onto form vs fixtures: are we losing faith too soon in some, while jumping onto others when they could merely be a flash in the
Licking Our Wounds | Gameweek 2
After a rather lackluster opening weekend, we’re glad to be given the chance to talk out our various grievances this week as a lot of sliding doors moments deprive us of a fire start.
In form vs fixture, we look at the three key risers this week – Reijnders, Semenyo and Wood – to ask if the early reactions merit an early purchase, plus look at other options out there given what we’ve seen… kno
Here We Land | Gameweek 1
In our final preseason pod, we take in the final friendlies and community shield to see what we've learned - and what outstanding questions we're hoping get answered in the time left.
Then we update on the pod this year - how we're approaching it, and start the One Pick Punt competition as well as making our season long Bold Claims.
Finally - our teams. Obviously there's still time to go, but w
Where We Stand | FPL Preseason
An extra pod from us this week as we inch ever closer to the Gameweek 1 deadline.
We focus exclusively on our drafts, discussing how we’ve got to where we are with just over one week to go before the first deadline – making the case for, and debating, our picks and decisions including potential chips played: will a bench boost be wielded?
Back next week for our final preseason show before the
Psychology Behind FPL (with @FPLRaptor ) - FPL Preseason
Sam & Tom are joined by the brilliant FPL Raptor (Ross) as part of our preseason content to discuss some of the psychological pitfalls us FPL managers face during the season – and how to tackle them.

- half tongue in cheek! - reflecting on what an "FPL Troll" actually
is with many nominations flying around on social media after a difficult
weekend for many managers.

captain, again, is arguably another open question.

FPL's A Beach | Gameweek 35
Sam and a sad Tom return after Free Hitters leave chipless managers in the dust following a wildly successful weekend for many.
This time round, we preview the end of the season, looking through the roster of Premier League teams to try to work out how motivated they are for the rest of the year through analysing their "beachiness". We do this by asking: what do they have left to play for?
Your Free Hit Tool Kit | Blank Gameweek 34
As the biggest double gameweek of the season comes to its close (live on the pod!), Sam & Tom look ahead to blank gameweek 34 – the moment at which many FPL managers are deploying their Free Hit chip to deal with the absence of many of their players.

Tom & Sam preview the first of a pair of upcoming double gameweeks in FPL - the crowning glory of fantasy in most seasons.
In the show this week, we discuss the debate between the pair - which week is the best to bench boost? And, if you have your triple captain left, do you triple captain for the other?
We also - for those on AM especially - pop through a few differentials you might wish to con

What Wood You Do? | Gameweek 30
After a bit of a break, Tom & Sam are podding again to preview Gameweek 30!
A lot’s happened the gap between pods, with international break injuries (hello Christopher Walter Wood) and FA Cup results giving us a clearer picture of the upcoming doubles and blanks.
And then a Haaland injury happened, and things went berserk.
We discuss this in our GW30 preview, taking in the calendar update,
