Chris Stone joins James to discuss the potential of The Hammers FPL assets and reflect on the Europa Conference League triumph. But is all well? Since European glory, star man Declan Rice has been sold and no signings have been made. Remarkably there are still question marks hanging over David Moyes’ future… Can Jarrod Bowen rediscover the form that made his so popular with Fantasy managers two seasons ago? Or could Said Benrahma offer an intriguing and cheaper alternative? Who’s likely to start upfront? Who’s the best of the 4.5 defenders and could 4.0 Alphonse Areola start in goal?

West Ham fan Chris Stone joins Suj & James to discuss The Hammers and the best FPL assets from The London Stadium. Can The Hammers break back into the top 6 again or will commitments in Europe hinder consistency? New signing Nayef Aguerd could be out until after the World Cup but with Gianluca Scamacca now a confirmed addition upfront The Hammers have additional firepower, but is it to the benefit of Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio's FPL appeal? Plus, who's likely to start in goal, are there 4.5 defensive assets to consider or is the Aguerd injury too damaging? Thomas Soucek and Pablo Fornals are debated for the 5.5 midfield bracket and the likely favoured starting formation.

Hosts Dan Bardell and George Elek are joined by bet365's Steve Freeth, just as Newcastle are preparing to keep the run going, without Kieran Trippier...

Plus, does Daniel James have anything to prove to his old club Manchester United, is Kane still one of the best centre-forwards in world football and are Wolves the real dark horses for fourth spot?

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...

Day 4 of Correspondent Week begins with a focus on Suj's team as Suj & James welcome Chris Stone to discuss all things West Ham United. There's an in-depth debate on West Ham's defensive assets and conclusions are drawn on who's best as an FPL asset between Aaron Cresswell (5.5), Vladimir Coufal (5.0) & Arthur Masuaku (4.5). Will Alphonse Areola dislodge Lukasz Fabianski as the club's number one keeper? Thomas Soucek has risen in price to 6.0, but focus on the Podcast is on two other midfield assets and with Jesse Lingard looking unlikely to return the lads ponder if Said Benrahma will improve on his first season and If Jarrod Bowen offers enough consistency to be an asset. And of course, there's coverage of Michail Antonio, those thighs, speedos and if he should be in our FPL teams...
