Summary

Join Josh and Brandon as we review the weekend's FA Cup action and unpack relevant FPL takeaways for Tuesday's GW21 deadline. Of course we hit upon the Arsenal vs Man United thriller, Graham Potter's debut as West Ham manager, and the continued march of an in-form Newcastle. Exactly what are we to make of Ruben Amorim's side ahead of a plum Southampton fixture? And are the wheels about to fall off our Arsenal fantasy assets? Plus, we discuss our own GW21 transfer plans and how we rate the tricky captaincy options with Salah about the face a tough defensive challenge. Hail Cheaters!
