Managers in Fantasy Premier League might see the international break next week as a chance to ease their focus on the FPL team.

But on the latest FPL Pod, Julien Laurens says they should keep a close eye on which players will be representing their countries over the week, and more importantly when.

With popular Brighton & Hove Albion assets such as Kaoru Mitoma (£5.5m) and Pervis Estupinan (£4.8m) playing on the other side of the globe, when they will return to their club for training will be important as to whether they will be able to play in the first fixture of Double Gameweek 29. 

"Especially, those players playing far from Europe, they might come back late, it might be tricky," says Laurens. "Usually, managers don't like playing them 48 hours after coming back into the country."
