On the first of two Clash of the Correspondents this week James is joined by Chelsea fan Gary Mantle and Everton fan Sean Norton to discuss all the latest at their clubs and the FPL assets of interest ahead of Blank Gameweek 28. Ben Chilwell is currently the most bought player in FPL this week? Is there any reason not to invest? Should Reece James or a cheaper option be considered a better alternative? Is double Chelsea defence the way to go? And who of the offensive players appeals most? Should Everton assets be binned if owned or can the likes of Jordan Pickford and James Tarkowski yet prove useful? And do they have enabling options emerging such as Michael Keane and Demarari Gray? Plus, there's chat on the managers Graham Potter and Sean Dyche, the disparity in January spending between the two clubs, expectations for the remainder of the season including Everton's hopes for the survival and if Chelsea can yet mount an unlikely challenge for 4th place...

James details what made him make a very last minute transfer on Sunday and talks through a redesigned and detailed transfer plan for December, a plan that may now change again with a suspected serious injury for Ben Chilwell opening up the possibility for Marcos Alonso to stake a claim in a new template. Plus, captaincy picks for the weekend and midweek fixtures ahead, why Sunday may be a good time to sell Arsenal and buy Brentford assets, but it comes with a warning and there's coverage of the 3 strategies of how to invest in Ronaldo, the permanent buy, hop on hop off and the wait until after Christmas...

On this week's Planet FPL Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Brentford fan Tom Medd and Chelsea fan Ted Maw to discuss their clubs, the best FPL assets from them and preview the Gameweek 8 encounter between the two. The Bees have impressed so far in their debut Premier League season and find themselves in the top half. Who does Tom believe is the best defensive asset to own in FPL? And what does he make of the front two Bryan Mbuemo and Ivan Toney? Is it viable to invest in both!? Should there be caution with Mathias Jensen and Yoane Wissa potentially about to be integrated into the starting line up and could that mean a change of formation is in the offering? While for Ted's Chelsea it's becoming as difficult to predict their line-up as it is to predict that of title challengers Manchester City. What does Ted make of the Marcos Alonso and Ben Chilwell situation at left wing-back? Does the headache mean it's better to ignore both and if so who are the best defensive Chelsea defensive assets to own? Plus why Romelu Lukaku will be difficult to go without for those who don't own, how far can these two clubs can go respectively this season and if there is any animosity between the two clubs ahead of their first West London Premier League meeting...

Is it going to happen again? Jamie Carragher is convinced England vs Germany is heading to penalties when they meet in the last-16 of Euro 2020 at Wembley on Tuesday. The Sky Sports pundit joined Peter Smith to examine the clash and explain why these two evenly matched sides may end up only being separated by spot-kicks. Carragher also dissects England's defence, which has kept three clean sheets, explains the factors Gareth Southgate will be weighing up when he decides to pick Jordan Henderson or not, and discusses whether Mason Mount or Ben Chilwell could still play a role, despite isolating until Monday.
