Ahead of the upcoming international break, Matt and Nick look back at how their respective teams performed in game week seven. This leads both of them to talk about the possibility of removing the Egyptian King Mo Salah in an effort to bolster their squad's points scoring potential! The Liverpool chat also sees Nick sing the praises of The Red's second choice goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, particularly in light of Alisson's hamstring injury!

The brother's wrangling around their under performing premium players also resonates with the question posed last week on FPL Family Podcast which was: "is FPL getting harder?" They discuss this quandary after Matt reviews FPL Family as his Podcast of the Week! Needless to say, Nick is far from impressed when his older brother describes Lee and Sam as FPL's answer to The Incredibles!

On the subject of all things film, Matt and Nick also talk about how the Joker would play FPL and there's more non-league action as Nick recounts his trip with Dad to see AFC Croydon Athletic take on Hythe Town! This includes analysis of Hythe's dominant performance, despite losing to the Rams, and their supporters' efforts to encourage their team, Portsmouth FC style, by ringing a bell at intervals during the game! Of course, Croydon fans described the away support as the "bell end!" This episode also features a few clips from the day!
