Mate love your work but pls add some pro audio processing on your mic? Like a compressor/limiter? there must be millions of how-to vids on youtube... A mic-stand alone is not gonna fix this....
Indeed a mic stand won’t be sufficient. I listened to Jian when he went to Ross’ podcast a short while ago and he was super duper clear. I could almost hear him breath If only Jian could emulate the same or more in his audio, his videos would be a slam dunks coz that’s the only missing puzzle
Superb video once again I’m really considering palmer captain this week I’m going to take a -4 this week to bring in eze and mateta baring inmind I already have sarr as having triple palace attack is extremely differential and my team looks very good to keep rolling for a few weeks which is needed for gw29 Also there is easy routes out in 26 as wissa and mbeumo can come in for there good run and they don’t blank Seriously tho you are without a doubt my favourite content creator fpl wise as the knowledge is unmatched Keep up the work!
I really like your line of thinking. I prefer Palmer, albeit a lot of that is due to safety. I still have that respect for City to not captain him (rightly or wrongly, we shall see). Like I said though, I like your thinking a lot and aside from the above, I’m not going to talk you out of it, if you really think he’s the best option - go for it. Good luck regardless of what you do.
Such a good video Jian, definitely convinced me to go Palmer captain over Bruno!! My frontline is Jackson, isak, pedro and I’m 0.1 short of doing pedro to wissa. I’m struggling with doing Jackson to mateta although it frees up funds and I would then be able to afford wissa, albeit for a hit it would set my team up to a position where I could roll for the foreseeable future. Do you think it’s worth it as I have Semenyo as my 5th mid and would kind of have to play pedro this week if he wasn’t injured?
Excellent video as always Jian.. so much work gone into it and it really shows with how helpful it is and the points you make are massively justified Love it mate Nice one 👍 Looking forward to your next one already .. as I always do ! Looking forward to the mic stand too 😅
Love the mic stand upgrade, should improve the audio! I went for Mateta last week as a -4 and paid off nciely! Transfer Dilemma: 1 FT, 1.6M ITB Defense: Gabriel - Robinson - Timber - Greaves - Myko A: Timber -> Hall B: Timber -> Munoz C: Roll FT Which is the priority move? Planning to roll from 22 til GW24
Thank you! The thing about using a defensive transfer when you don’t have LFC defence, is that you will probably want them for the DGW. So if moving, I would go early with Liverpool. Otherwise roll (even though I expect Arsenal to concede)
Great vid. Would you consider moving Gordon to Mbeumo in gw 24/ 25? Considering Mbeumos amazing fixtures, and Gordon's blank in gw 29? Or would you hold Gordon and try to find another route to Mbeumo?
Thank you Kevin. I don’t mind it if you have strong conviction, but if not I would just leave it. 4 points (a hit) in 29 is fine if necessary, if it’s been paid for by Gordon’s POTENTIAL brilliance beforehand. That’s on the assumption you even need to take the hit anyway.
Amazing detailed video, I just wanted a little help as I have jackson and jesus in attack and still have semenyo. any recommendations for transfers i have 2 free but willing to take a -4
Nice vid Jian. But help me understand the differential captaincy gameplan? I understand it gains on the rest of the field (or top 10k managers) if it works, but it loses out just as big when it doesn't. Pulling you further away. I can understand captaining Palmer instead of Salah in weeks where they are similar expected points, such as when you think they are both worth around 8 points. But what about in weeks where you think Palmer is worth 7.5 and Salah is worth 8? Would you captain Palmer still or go with Salah? If you would captain Palmer, what's the idea behind that? The breakaway potential? To allow the chance of a best ever finish? To catch up? For fun reasons?! I was actually thinking it might make more sense to 'stay with the pack' at the start of the season and then make more differential decisions later in the season to distinguish yourself from the rest.
Thank you very much. I don’t captain people purely for the differential aspect of it, that’s never a primary reason. I think Palmer is a better captain option than Salah this week, and the fact he will reside at a lower EO just makes the decision a bit easier. I hope that helps!
Hello there, currently lined up as follows: Sels, Trent, Gab, Hall, Amad, Salah, Foden, Palmer (C), JP, Isak, Jackson Slicker, Munoz, Rogers, Myk 2FT, 0.1 ITB. I really want to roll and think I'm in a good place to do so for a week or two. The question is how do I fit Munoz in here? I feel like I should be starting him, but who for? Gab, Trent and JP (if injured) are in my thoughts. Or is making a transfer or two and playing BB a stupid call to get Munoz and Rogers playing in decent fixtures on top of that? Many thanks for the guidance and help thus far!
Hello Patrick, Munoz over Gabriel (Leicester have a good attack though) Rogers over JP as things stand, and I definitely wouldn’t be bench boosting. My pleasure!
Love the content this season, by far the best channel! Who would you start out of these three options (appreciate all three have low ceilings) Milenkovic vs LIV (already have Aina starting), Greaves vs BHA (No BHA assets) or Mykolenko vs AVL (have Watkins starting)? Thanks!
Hi Jian, Just saw the Fantasy Football Hub video-great one! Bench Konsa this week? Everton might attack more with Dyche gone. Bournemouth has less threat without Evanilson/Ünal, but Chelsea’s defense is weaker without Fofana-start Colwill? Jackson: keep or sell is tough… No Jimenez or Delap in the replacements? In the ‘Sell JP?’ section, worth noting Welbeck is back, right? Thoughts on Elanga?
Thanks for the video Jian! Much needed content during the FA cup fixtures! Quick question - start gabriel and timber OR gabriel and konsa? Also what about bruno captaincy punt?
Happy New Year Jian! Been away for a bit so haven't commented in a bit, keep up the good work mate! Would you bench Wood for Rogers this week? I'm not sure myself. Also, I saw in transfer plans you mentioned you might go Van Dijk, but when Konate is so much cheaper I think that might be a better option? His value is really low and his xGi/90 is virtually the same. I don't really get the VVD pick over him as his goal threat isn't the same as a Gabriel. VVD vs. Konate doesn't feel like Gabriel vs. Saliba to me in terms of goal threat, it's more about the quality of defence. I'm thinking of getting him in 23. Hope you're well mate and had a good xmas period, looking forward to big things for your channel!
Hello mate, Happy New Year, I hope you had a good festive period. Thank you for the kind words. I like your argument for Konate over VVD, makes sense. Given me something to think about. Between those two it’s so close, I’ll talk about it in SYP once I’ve given it more thought.
Great vid again - one question (with a potentially obvious answer), thoughts on Odegaard -> Bruno? I massively regret my Odegaard choice, but not sure how much I trust United going forward
Im bringing in gordon for foden. But incase jao pedro is injured for the game, im thinking of taking a -4 for johnson to mbeumo/fernandez/eze? Is it worth it? who is the best pick in this case?
Nice vid brother, I am also going Palmer captain.. 🥶📈 Asked you last video and you told me to wait it out but I have changed my mind. I am thinking of doing Jackson>Mateta Diaz>Eze Knew going Diaz was a minutes risk.. but is getting frustrating. I am conflicted thought with the double GW coming up for Liverpool. Will likely wait until Palace play their FA Cup game and as long as neither of them get injured I think I will make the move. Thoughts?
Hi there great show which 3 do I start mazraoui,Trent,Munoz,saliba also do I bring in amad for enzo as a transfer at moment my team is raya,mazraoui,,Trent,Munoz, fernandes, palmer, salah, enzo, isak,Raul, wood,subs fabianski,Roger’s,saliba,greaves
Great vid again bro. Might cap palmer, but haaland (again) is in my thoughts as well. Not too bullish this week though, I did captain him last gw but don't think the city performance was that great, luck played a huge factor imo.. but brentford vs city seems like its going to be goals, goals, and goals for both teams. Your opinion?
If you have Haaland i think you have to captain him for the next two weeks because that is a big big differential captain and we know how good Haaland can be
If palmer performs i will never not trust this guy the reasoning was sound, the only thing that makes me wary is he’s a Chelsea fan but I’m just gonna take this risk
I agree, that’s why I’m going for Palmer as things stand. (Also, please message me so I can add you to the group chat my friend! We all look forward to having you there. Speak soon.)
Mate love your work but pls add some pro audio processing on your mic? Like a compressor/limiter? there must be millions of how-to vids on youtube... A mic-stand alone is not gonna fix this....
If you can upgrade Video sound quality would be awesome.
Indeed a mic stand won’t be sufficient.
I listened to Jian when he went to Ross’ podcast a short while ago and he was super duper clear. I could almost hear him breath
If only Jian could emulate the same or more in his audio, his videos would be a slam dunks coz that’s the only missing puzzle
@louisschoorl-xy6qu @ButtercupFPL
All taken on board guys, I will look into it.
Thank you, and appreciate the kind words 🙌
Superb video once again
I’m really considering palmer captain this week
I’m going to take a -4 this week to bring in eze and mateta baring inmind I already have sarr as having triple palace attack is extremely differential and my team looks very good to keep rolling for a few weeks which is needed for gw29
Also there is easy routes out in 26 as wissa and mbeumo can come in for there good run and they don’t blank
Seriously tho you are without a doubt my favourite content creator fpl wise as the knowledge is unmatched
Keep up the work!
I'm thinking about an Mbeumo capraincy considering how bad city are in transitions and how powerful Brentford are. + All the fundamentals
I really like your line of thinking.
I prefer Palmer, albeit a lot of that is due to safety. I still have that respect for City to not captain him (rightly or wrongly, we shall see).
Like I said though, I like your thinking a lot and aside from the above, I’m not going to talk you out of it, if you really think he’s the best option - go for it.
Good luck regardless of what you do.
Been longing for your uploads
We are back🤝
See you Sunday for Team Selection
Such a good video Jian, definitely convinced me to go Palmer captain over Bruno!!

I’m struggling with doing Jackson to mateta although it frees up funds and I would then be able to afford wissa, albeit for a hit it would set my team up to a position where I could roll for the foreseeable future. Do you think it’s worth it as I have Semenyo as my 5th mid and would kind of have to play pedro this week if he wasn’t injured?
Thank you mate!
I would just play Semenyo and roll
Excellent video as always Jian.. so much work gone into it and it really shows with how helpful it is and the points you make are massively justified
Love it mate
Nice one 👍
Looking forward to your next one already .. as I always do !
Looking forward to the mic stand too 😅
Thank you very much Tony, I really do appreciate your constant support🤝
@FPLJianBatra always my man 👍
Love the mic stand upgrade, should improve the audio! I went for Mateta last week as a -4 and paid off nciely!
Transfer Dilemma:
1 FT, 1.6M ITB
Defense:
Gabriel - Robinson - Timber - Greaves - Myko
A: Timber -> Hall
B: Timber -> Munoz
C: Roll FT
Which is the priority move?

Bench Hall or Robinson?
Or play both and bench Gabriel?
Like the content and I just subscribed! 👍
Your fpl rank will thank you. This channel has helped us all gain rank.
Thank you very much, I hope you continue to enjoy it.
Hello there, currently lined up as follows:
Sels, Trent, Gab, Hall, Amad, Salah, Foden, Palmer (C), JP, Isak, Jackson
Slicker, Munoz, Rogers, Myk

Thank you very much Taz, I do appreciate.
Milenkovic and really go for it. He’s a huge box threat as well.
Hi Jian
I will also be captaining palmer with you again 😂
Let’s hope he can haul
Hello my friend,
I can always count on you to be there with me🤣
Let us hope!
Thoughts about Gibbs White bro?
Hi Jian,
Just saw the Fantasy Football Hub video-great one!
Bench Konsa this week? Everton might attack more with Dyche gone.
Bournemouth has less threat without Evanilson/Ünal, but Chelsea’s defense is weaker without Fofana-start Colwill?
Jackson: keep or sell is tough… No Jimenez or Delap in the replacements?
In the ‘Sell JP?’ section, worth noting Welbeck is back, right?
Thoughts on Elanga?
Hello Rajaan,
Thank you!
Start Colwill.
Wouldn’t buy Elanga.
Welbeck is back, but minutes will be managed.
Thanks for the video Jian! Much needed content during the FA cup fixtures! Quick question - start gabriel and timber OR gabriel and konsa? Also what about bruno captaincy punt?
My pleasure!
Konsa, I think Arsenal concede.
I will talk about Bruno (C) in SYP.
Great show
Thank you very much!
Great Video Jian… I’m feeling a little rogue for this upcoming game week and potentially gonna captain Bruno, would you consider it if you had him?
Thank you Jacob!
I will discuss him in SYP.
Start rogers or wood mate ?
I got the same issue ay
i got the sense wood will be benched just like against arsenal last month
I agree @@ryansmovies-o4q. Will likely play Rogers.
@ryansmovies-o4q @liamdsouza886 @11958J
I would start Rogers, but so narrowly (I think Forest could well get a result)
If Pedro is out I’m starting both lol
What are your thoughts on Raúl vs Wissa as JP replacements (if there are any other, better, replacements i wouldnt mind knowing either).
Wissa for xMins, at that price, he’s probably the best
What do you think about captaining bruno or amad
I shall discuss it on SYP
Absolutely top video this week. Thanks for your efforts!!
Thank you very much Richard, I appreciate you🫡
I hope you had a brilliant Christmas and New Year by the way.
Happy New Year Jian! Been away for a bit so haven't commented in a bit, keep up the good work mate! Would you bench Wood for Rogers this week? I'm not sure myself.
Also, I saw in transfer plans you mentioned you might go Van Dijk, but when Konate is so much cheaper I think that might be a better option? His value is really low and his xGi/90 is virtually the same. I don't really get the VVD pick over him as his goal threat isn't the same as a Gabriel. VVD vs. Konate doesn't feel like Gabriel vs. Saliba to me in terms of goal threat, it's more about the quality of defence. I'm thinking of getting him in 23.
Hope you're well mate and had a good xmas period, looking forward to big things for your channel!
Hello mate,
Happy New Year, I hope you had a good festive period.
Thank you for the kind words.
I like your argument for Konate over VVD, makes sense. Given me something to think about.
Between those two it’s so close, I’ll talk about it in SYP once I’ve given it more thought.
Great vid again - one question (with a potentially obvious answer), thoughts on Odegaard -> Bruno? I massively regret my Odegaard choice, but not sure how much I trust United going forward
Haha, just got to the Odegaard section, it’s like it was specifically aimed at me 😂
Thank you!
🤣
Hopefully that’s everything you need
Trying to decide who to bench this week between Joao Pedro and Jackson. Already starting Salah, Palmer, Sarr, Gordon, Amad, Isak
Bench Jackson
@ that’s who I’m leaning towards currently if JP is healthy
I would bench Joao Pedro mate.
I understand why I could be looked at as a close decision, but with the knock, I find it to be a bit easier.
Im bringing in gordon for foden. But incase jao pedro is injured for the game, im thinking of taking a -4 for johnson to mbeumo/fernandez/eze? Is it worth it? who is the best pick in this case?
I wouldn’t take the -4, you could just sell Johnson and not Foden (getting Eze?)
But i need gordon bro...thats why thought of selling foden...with some spare cash i can upgrade johnson to the likes of mbeumo/bruno. @FPLJianBatra
Nice vid brother, I am also going Palmer captain.. 🥶📈
Asked you last video and you told me to wait it out but I have changed my mind. I am thinking of doing
Jackson>Mateta
Diaz>Eze
Knew going Diaz was a minutes risk.. but is getting frustrating. I am conflicted thought with the double GW coming up for Liverpool. Will likely wait until Palace play their FA Cup game and as long as neither of them get injured I think I will make the move. Thoughts?
Thank you brother.
I wouldn’t sell Jackson, just Diaz to Eze
🥶
@ Fair at least I’ll get some part of Palace attack although really want Mateta tho will not lie.. My front 3 is Wood Isak Jackson
Hi there great show which 3 do I start mazraoui,Trent,Munoz,saliba also do I bring in amad for enzo as a transfer at moment my team is raya,mazraoui,,Trent,Munoz, fernandes, palmer, salah, enzo, isak,Raul, wood,subs fabianski,Roger’s,saliba,greaves
Hello,
Thank you.
You have it right, and I wouldn’t sell him.
Great vid again bro. Might cap palmer, but haaland (again) is in my thoughts as well. Not too bullish this week though, I did captain him last gw but don't think the city performance was that great, luck played a huge factor imo.. but brentford vs city seems like its going to be goals, goals, and goals for both teams. Your opinion?
If you have Haaland i think you have to captain him for the next two weeks because that is a big big differential captain and we know how good Haaland can be
Thank you brother.
I will speak about Haaland in SYP.
What about Haaland captaincy?
Big difference
I will discuss it on SYP!
Who to bench? Foden or Cunha?
Cunha…
Ideally neither
Thinking about Jackson to mateta this week and then jesus to gakpo next week
Close decision, difficult to get it wrong
Thoughts on Mac Allister from Liverpool? He’s getting a lot more game time and accumulating points
Functions as part of the pivot/deeper midfield a lot & doesn’t have big goal threat, not for me.
Would you do Foden to gordon?
Probably not
Bigger teams will double in GW36, so it will be difficult to accommodate all. BB33 is best since Newcastle will most likely double.
There’s a lot of cheap options even in those bigger teams!
I guess if we should have Haaland for DGW36, you make a good point.
Best palace asset?
Mateta if he’s fit, but it depends on what your team needs, and it’s very close (& subjective) regardless.
Any love for Bruno Fernandes ?
I spoke about him!
@ who would u prioritise
Bruno or Mateta !
I’ve sarr and Munoz too
Thoughts on Bruno captain ?
Bench 1 out of watkins jackson rogers?
Rogers, but don’t love it
@FPLJianBatra even if he gets 90 and watkins 60?
Best evanilson replacement at his price point
Wissa/JP if he’s fit
I was set on Palmer before this video and then you had to go throw Mateta's name out there
I still said Palmer is my favourite!
If palmer performs i will never not trust this guy the reasoning was sound, the only thing that makes me wary is he’s a Chelsea fan but I’m just gonna take this risk
I'm not sure about a salah captaincy this gameweek
I agree, that’s why I’m going for Palmer as things stand.
(Also, please message me so I can add you to the group chat my friend!
We all look forward to having you there.
Speak soon.)
@FPLJianBatra I already sent you a dm on twitter as I don't know any other way to reach out to you
The sound quality 👎
Start Enzo or wood mate ?
wood hes on pens
Does Chelsea do well in midweek PL games when they do drastic changes
Wood
Sort your mic out
