Description

Alistair Bruce-Ball, Chris Sutton and Statman Dave return from international duty to look ahead to Gameweek 12 and discuss the big issues in the FPL world. Producer Joe, currently sitting top of the BBC Sport League and 23rd in the world, comes on to share some of his infinite wisdom.

Is this a week to get away from captaining Haaland? When's the right time to bench boost? Will producer Joe keep his job once former producer Grace listens to this pod?

Chris takes on Joe at a Harry Kane-themed Sutton Death and a listener reveals his father's shady past which led to Chris missing out on a house outside Birmingham 20 years ago.
