Episode notes
Free Hit Fails And Wins
- Kelly and both guests activated Free Hit and one got 55 points while another got 39, causing playful ribbing.
- The hosts used their Free Hit results to illustrate how chips can wildly differ week to week.
Foden Is A Low-Owned Upside
- Phil Foden looks like a strong differential because he's under-owned despite recent form and a great game.
- Julien notes Guardiola rotation risk but still thinks a third City pick (Doku or Foden) can pay off.
Hold Suspended Bournemouth Asset
- Don't rush to sell Bournemouth's Sonesi for one-game suspension if you can bench him for midweek.
- Sam and Julien both recommend holding Sonesi through a single-match suspension given upcoming fixtures.
