And just like that, the 2023/24 season comes to a close. It’s been a pretty good one—both of us enjoyed our best ever finishes, and there have been a number of memorable moments, from Palmer’s 26-pointer to the mouth-watering Gameweek 34 Free H
A bald striker who likes to tuck in his shirt and bangs in goals for fun? No, he’s not Ronaldo Nazario in the early 2000s while he was playing for Real Madrid. No, he’s arguably even better (and certainly more of an FPL hero at the very least).
Unsurprisingly, this episode centers around creating the perfect Free Hit team for GW 34. (And if you’re not using your Free Hit, hopefully the points we hit on will still be valuable in helping you determine who to prioritize with your preciou
On paper, this upcoming gameweek seems like it’ll be the last relatively calm one before the inevitable chaos of the tail end of the season ensues. By examining what the best course of action might be for our own teams, we touch on key topics t
As the title of this episode conveys, we are concerned this gameweek with what words rhyme with Romeo’s close friend in Shakespeare’s classic. The answer we present: TIOotIO (pronounced “ti-OO-shee-oh”). Humor us and take a moment to think abou
The greater good has rarely outweighed my own self-interest. Specificity breeds universality. The ends justify the means. Are you confused because this sounds an awful lot like a philosophy podcast? No, this is still the FPL Fortress! And in fa
In this latest episode of the FPL Fortress, many exciting things happen: Jacob gets bamboozled, Jiayang successfully lands two puns in a row on the spot, and both work together to contemplate the strategy of the Gameweek 30/31 Wildcard that man
A common piece of advice: trust your intuition. But when your intuition tells you that transferring Haaland out for Carlton Morris is an insane thing to do, don’t trust your intuition. Seriously, there’s a larger point here—even when a certain
Now that this round of the FA Cup has finished, the Gameweek 29 fixtures are finally confirmed—and boy, they do not look particularly exciting. In this episode, we conduct a thorough investigation on what the best course of action is to prepare
FPL is a game that’s often characterized by the feeling of disappointment. Cold, hard, and unadulterated disappointment. And yet, before every seemingly juicy double gameweek, it seems like we FPL managers have a genuine reason to be hopeful. D
In this episode, we focus exclusively on Liverpool, Manchester City, and Arsenal, the three teams that comprise the current top three of the Premier League—as such, it should come as little surprise that they also offer some of the best assets
With GW 25 and GW 28 finally confirmed to be double gameweeks and a clearer picture emerging overall of the remainder of the season, it finally seems like there are some real choices to be made for FPL managers—choices that, with strategic plan
Gameweek 22 was full of fun moments, with Haaland completely scuffing his lines (a robot will inevitably be a little rusty after a period of disuse, after all), Maupay taking the absolute mickey out of Maddison, and Elijah Anuoluwapo Oluwaferan
The most stretched-out gameweek in recent memory has bored us to the point of making Starting XIs consisting of animals. Yes, that’s right—Jacob and Jiayang spend about 20 minutes putting together the perfect Animal XI. And to be honest, we don
Breaks in the Premier League never come to pass calmly. Our teams just always seem to get derailed—this time, it’s injuries to Bowen, Trent, and of course Charlie Taylor, coupled with the departure of Salah and Son that had been imminent—and as
I can scarcely believe that this is our last episode in 2023, but here we are! Jiayang and Jacob conduct reviews of Chelsea and Man City respectively, with both landing on a hopeful outlook for the future (though Chelsea might be going through
All any FPL manager wants for Christmas is a captaincy haul—obviously. Oh, but will Santa come and realize this dream of ours? In this Christmas Eve episode of the FPL Fortress, we conduct a deep dive into decision-making methodology, mainly th
It almost seems like this week’s episode of the FPL Fortress should be an episode of Sheldon Cooper’s “Fun With Flags” instead. Jiayang’s team is filled with five flags, which includes all four different flag colors—yes, we are in the thick of
We’ve got a special double episode coming your way today, given that the first midweek gameweek is fast approaching—a sign of the busy holiday season ahead (which of course could be a good or a bad thing, depending on how your team performs). T
With Man City vs. Liverpool looming over us in under 60 hours, it’s time for FPL managers to jump right back into the thick of things, especially after the long international break. First, we review the 4-4 thriller between Chelsea and City, re
How much has to go wrong for you to concede three goals to Nicolas Jackson? The answer: two disallowed goals (albeit rightly so), two red cards (absolutely rightly deserved), two injuries (wholly undeserved), and a frankly ridiculous high line
It’s a (relatively) peaceful week in the FPL landscape this week. We still do our classic Gameweek Review and Captaincy segments this episode, but instead of the Dilemma Deliberations, we embark on a brief philosophical interlude regarding, amo

Considering the dramatic episode title, it may come as a surprise that the nature of the following 70 minutes is actually rather light-hearted. (Don’t worry—Jiayang does go off on a mini-tangent about the subtlety behind how French Existentiali
Today, we all witnessed the divinity of Daniel Johnson Burn, the lanky lad who just scored against PSG in the Champions League. To quote Newcastle’s Twitter admin: “Hang it in the Louvre.”Jacob has just activated his wildcard, and we spend thi
