Welcome back to the FPL Lounge! The lads are back to preview GW27.

A midweek GW means it's a sharp turnaround from the lads, but there's plenty to talk about as always.

Let's party like it's 1997, because things can only get Beto on the radar. Everton's in-form budget forward makes it on, but how high does he feature? Two midfield options also make it onto the fringe, with one an FPL Lounge favourite of old whose price is finally starting to have some, albeit limited appeal. There's also some chat about a real Chelsea differential ahead of two very appealing fixtures.

Nothing to swim against so the lads try to catch each other in their honey traps, with goals the focus of discussion.

The Mo Salah perma-captaincy continues, but with some differential options available, especially if a premium asset can use a get-right fixture to recapture some form.

The lads finish, as ever, with a little game they like to call Who the Heck Is Stat?!

If you like what you hear, do let the guys know on X (fka Twitter), Insta, Threads or TikTok, @FPL_Lounge, and the lads are now on BlueSky too, but without the underscore: @FPLLounge. Be sure to subscribe wherever you get your pods, so you always get new episodes in advance of the Gameweek deadline!
