Kelly Somers and the FPL Pod team released a guide on which players to acquire for the final two gameweeks of the 2025/26 season.
Strategic transfers in the closing stages of the season can determine final league rankings for millions of managers. These decisions are critical as managers attempt to maximize points during the final stretch to climb their global standings.
The discussion took place on the Premier League’s official YouTube channel. The team focused on identifying low-ownership players who could provide a competitive edge. By targeting players not widely owned by the general community, managers can create a points gap between themselves and their rivals.
According to the team, two weeks remain in the Premier League season [1]. This window covers Gameweeks 35 and 36 [2]. The advice centers on optimal transfers that could boost total points before the season concludes.
Somers and her colleagues analyzed current form and upcoming fixtures to determine the best value. The podcast aims to help managers navigate the limited remaining opportunities for squad adjustments. Because the season is nearly over, the team emphasized the importance of immediate impact over long-term potential.
Managers are encouraged to look at specific player profiles that fit the tactical needs of the final matches. The FPL Pod team said these final moves are often the most volatile yet rewarding parts of the game. The guide serves as a roadmap for those looking to optimize their rosters for the 2025/26 campaign finale.
“Two weeks remain in the Premier League season”
The focus on low-ownership players indicates a shift from 'safe' captaincy picks to high-variance 'differentials.' In the final two gameweeks of a Fantasy Premier League season, the goal for many managers shifts from maintaining a lead to taking aggressive risks to leapfrog opponents in the standings.
