With news of a possible postponement of Spurs v Villa in GW18, which in turn could affect fixtures in GW19, Sam & Siva attempt to make sense of everything while discussing the best FPL assets for both GW18 and GW19, both from the perspective of managers who will be playing a chip (Free Hit, Wildcard, Triple Captain) and also those who won’t be playing a chip. Man City, Man Utd, Villa, Arsenal, Liverpool all come into focus.
