Sunderland with Spencer Barrowman | Correspondent Week ep. 14 | Planet FPL 2026/27
Planet FPL - The Fantasy Football PodcastShow Notes
Most thought they wouldn't survive, but Sunderland caught everyone by surprise, perhaps even themselves, by qualifying for the Europa League. Now the excitement of European football awaits, but with it comes challenges. Do have Sunderland have the squad that cope with two games a week regularly?
That may take time to answer. But before European football begins there are some great opening fixtures and lots of FPL interest for fantasy managers to consider.
Injury concerns have opened up the possibility of a 4.0 defender and a 4.5 OOP defender both starting and there's coverage of those who performed well last season too such as Dan Ballard and Nordi Mukiele.
And there are attackers too with 6.0 pair Enzo Le Fee and Brian Brobbey likely to have interest and there's someone cheaper who could catch the ere too.
