On the opening Planet FPL Podcast of 2025 (Happy New Year everyone!) James is joined by Tottenham fan Ricky Saunders and Newcastle fan Simon Bibby to discuss very differing fortunes for the two clubs currently, FPL assets and Saturday's meeting at White Hart Lane. Is Ange Postecoglu losing the faith of Tottenham fans or can the injury crisis defensively be used as an excuse for the run of poor results? Whilst opponents Newcastle are flying. Monday's comfortable victory at Old Trafford means it's four consecutive league wins with none conceded. There's discussion on what Tottenham can do this month to turn their fortunes around; the tactical tweak involving Sandro Tonali that has had a transformative impact for Newcastle; and there's discussion on all the key FPL assets which features the popular Newcastle trio of Lewis Hall, Anthony Gordon and Alexander Isak. But is it right to overlook Tottenham assets when they still continue to score regularly?

Suj and James review the weekend of Gameweek 17 that provided some monster scores as Mo Salah returned his biggest FPL haul of his incredible season as Liverpool won 6-3 at Tottenham, while Arsenal were also big scorers this weekend as they hit 5 at Crystal Palace. But much of the debate for FPL managers is now who to replace the injured Bukayo Saka following his hamstring pull. Options are considered throughout he Podcast, including spreading the money and could that even bring a rout back to Erling Haaland in time for Manchester City's enticing next 5 fixtures!? Question is, after City's latest setback at Villa, where Morgan Rogers (benched my many) hauled, do FPL managers have any confidence to invest in Pep's men? Plus, brilliant Bournemouth, Nottingham Forest's tactical tweak, Everton's strength in defence, Trent Alexander-Arnold acises a big debate, Alexander Isak is on fire and plenty more...

Clayton joins James for a review of GW14 in a week where Arsenal won from corners and Tottenham lost from one, but that's not the only reason Tottenham lost, and James is in a mood this morning following the dismal showing at Bournemouth. He did at least have some reason to cheer via FPL means as Alexander Isak was held and returned well in Newcastle's thrilling draw against Liverpool, but Mo Salah dominated again with another monster haul. The Egyptian King is now up to a barely believable 151 FPL Points for the season. Clayton's gameweek meanwhile was somewhat saved by an Arsenal player and The Gunners ran out winners against a Manchester United team, who impressed with their structure, if not their threat. All the games from Wednesday to Thursday covered, including Chelsea's demolition of Southampton, Aston Villa and Manchester City getting back to winning ways; whilst there's debate on FPL transfers as James seeks a new defender, there's a solution offered for Bryan Mbeumo owners, if those who have prersisted with Erling Haaland have to call it quits and is there enough reason to take Salah on with the captaincy this week? ...Tottenham might have offered one... but not for the right reasons.

On Ask James today, with the news of Tottenham missing both first choice centre backs there's a big warning for Fantasy managers who were looking to sell Erling Haaland, but with Mateo Kovacic also out for City, Tottenham are not without their own chances to hurt tomorrow and that may make selling or benching the likes of Brennan Johnson or Dominic Solanke awkward too. Plus, Trent Alexander-Arnold is out and James will be moving him on as part of a plan to get Alexander Isak, and going treble Arsenal defence is not something James is ruling out at this stage, particularly with one player's xMins on the rise following today's Team News. As usual, all the transfer and benching dilemmas covered and there's more chat on Ange Postecoglu and the long-term.

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Newcastle fan Simon Bibby and West Ham fan Chris Stone to discuss the latest at their clubs and the FPL assets within them ahead of Monday's meeting at St James's Park. Will either Correspondent give James reason not to buy Alexander Isak? And he's not the only Newcastle asset under consideration, with Lewis Hall likely to be popular for those in search of an enabling defender and there's a warning not to forget about Anthony Gordon and Joelinton's positioning could soon make him an interesting prospect. Jarrod Bowen for Bryan Mbeumo in GW14 is a move James earmarked in pre-season, but is there any faith in The Hammers who sit in 14th currently and with the pressure mounting on Julen Lopetegui. Mohammed Kudus also return in GW14, there's discussion too on what's happening with Lucas Paqueta and will 4.0 keeper Lukasz Fabianski retain his place in goal for the weeks ahead?
