Suj & James react to and review the seven games played over the weekend of Gameweek 21 and the late announcement on Friday of a Double Gameweek that saw many FPL managers steam into assets from doublers Brentford, Everton and West Ham.

James also details what may happen with the fixtures for Gameweek 22 and why games previously selected for television broadcast are likely to get preferential treatment. 

There's also discussion about why many may choose not to use the Free Hit Chip and keep non double Gameweek players in 22, the impact of those leaving for the African Nations, best Mo Salah replacements, tactical notes of interest on Arsenal, Brighton and Watford and lots more...

Coming Up on Tuesday on Planet FPL - The People's Poll Podcast will be a ChampManFPL season 3 preview as James welcomes @FplKaptain

Suj and James discuss the 7 fixtures that took place in a chaotic Gameweek 20 that saw Capatin fantastic Mo Salah return a zero pointer after he saw his penalty saved by Kasper Schmeichel and Liverpool lost at Leicester.

But there were some star performers in the likes of Jarrod Bowen and Phil Foden that still helped many to a good gameweek and Cristiano Ronaldo delivered for those who backed him with the armband.

Plus there's more detailed discussion on the potential for fixture arrangements over the forthcoming gameweeks including whether the Gameweek 22 deadline could be brought forward and which players are in our thoughts to buy which includes ideas for Reece James replacements and why Emmanuel Dennis might be back on the buy or keep list...

Coming Up on Monday on Planet FPL - Planet FPL S5 ep28 reviewing the fallout from the Gameweek 21 weekend and before that James will present the GW21 Deadline Stream Live! at 10am (UK) on Saturday

On the Pod, there's discussion on Michail Antonio's availability, Jarrod Bowen's increased importance to The Hammers, defensive issues at both clubs, Tino Livramento and Armando Broja FPL potential, squad depth, upcoming fixtures and there's discussion on the addition of a second Free Hit chip for FPL managers, which if deployed in a likely Double Gameweek 22 could see assets from both The Hammers and The Saints become very desirable.

On this People's Poll Podcast Suj & James challenge the difficult conversation around the Y Word, a word reclaimed by Tottenham fans in the 1970s to fight back against anti semitic and racist opposition fans.

But is it right that Tottenham fans still use the word?

James tries to give a balanced side of the argument from both sides as a Tottenham fan who had used the word for many years but made a decision some time ago not to use it any more and recounts experiences at games and why removing the word from the conversation has to be something led by Tottenham fans themselves.

Coming Up on Wednesday on Planet FPL - Planet SkyFF s3 ep20, discussing all the latest in Sky Fantasy Football.
