Welcome back to the FPL Lounge for our GW17 Preview of the 24/25 season!
Lots to catch up on in the FPL world, with a chat about suspensions, League Cup rotation and two managerial dismissals. Will any Wolves and Southampton assets become more viable with a change of coach?
The radar features a few that remain from previous weeks, with the addition of a rare double-up defence, and an in-form striker.
The lads again swim against the tide, going against a very affordable midfielder who's caught the eye recently but whose underlying data flatters to deceive. A mixed bag in the captaincy segment follows.
They finish, as ever, with a little game they like to call Who The Heck Is Stat?!
If you like what you hear, do let the guys know on X (fka Twitter), Insta, Threads or TikTok, @FPL_Lounge, and the lads are now on BlueSky too, but without the underscore: @FPLLounge. Be sure to subscribe wherever you get your pods, so you always get new episodes in advance of the Gameweek deadline!
