ReindeerHotdog has pulled the trigger on an EARLY SECOND WILDCARD this week (Runde 17) and sees Glimt, Rosenborg and Lillestrøm as the teams to back At time of recording Ingason was yet to be added to the game (he's since been added as an 8.5m midfielder) but Tengstedt and Braut Brunes remain a mystery - as new comes, this will be addressed on Twitter Apart from a couple of planned moves pending those additions, the team is pretty much good to go - so if you're thinking about doing the same, or you just want some recommendations on who you should own, this is for you A quick, concise episode with a banging track to play us out!

ReindeerHotdog is back from his random sojourn across Europe & brings you all the stats you could ask for and MORE. We look at the latest set of games in the league, look at which teams are worth investing in who has stood out as good fantasy picks. With more of a focus on how the non-fantasy assets allow the more attacking players to get returns, this episode frames our statistics in a more helpful way - that is, we're looking at play connections, passing frequencies and attacking trends. And going forward, this is exactly what we'll be focusing more on. We've missed you - I hope you've missed us!

Goals galore in the first bunch of group games with France in particular looking as though they absolutely mean business. Some stand out players for a lot of teams but it looks as though Eytexi's strategy for targeting team performance and the result is the best way forward... Luckily nobody who had a good team captained Geyoro otherwise it would be game over already! We chat about the first lot of games, our favourite moments from the best players and how we'll navigate the next round.

After the Sarpsborg 08 number 1 tore a ligament in his thumb, we decided to check in on the Pod favourite and see how he was getting on. We recorded back in June around the time of his injury and the plan was not to wait until now to upload it. But hey, better late than never and Anders provides real insight into how his injury has affected him and his teammates and how the club are supporting him. As ever he's eager to hand out advice on how to deal with similar setbacks we might find ourselves having to deal with and illustrates just how vital a strong mental attitude is to ensuring a good recovery. Part 2 will be coming soon - we'll catch up with him after his second cast is fitted and see how he's progressed towards a full recovery.

Runde 12 had plenty of talking points including a referee auditioning for WWE, a couple of surprise defeats and exceptional individual performances despite clocking up no returns whatsoever! Naturally we sink our teeth in and bring you match reports and our opinion on what went down. We might have neglected our Pod team lately, but we rectify that during this episode as we put together the C&K Wildcard and highlight the most essential players you should be considering for the upcoming rounds.

So, it's that time again. We look over all the events of Runde 12 as we also cast our gaze ahead to the incoming Runde 13. Quite a few players stood out, while even more failed to impress - it felt like a lottery in which none of us wanted to participate but were charged far more than the cost of the tickets. It was not a happy time for most of us. With Berisha out, Sigurd Haugen leaving the league and form eluding some players and teams, Runde 13 offers a chance at salvation for all and there's some real opportunities to get ahead on your rivals by making a few potentially brave calls. We go over all of that, answer your Twitter questions and ReindeerHotdog is convinced there's a better Rosenborg option than Vecchia for their juicy home tie with Jerv...
