Everything you need for Double GW35 of FPL with the latest tips and advice

Double Gameweek 34 (DGW34) in Fantasy Premier League is nearing its conclusion and many popular picks produced huge returns.

But one player who frustrated several managers was Mohamed Salah (£13.6m) after he only produced three points across his two matches.

The FPL Pod panel - Kelly Somers, Sam Bonfield and Julien Laurens - discuss whether it's time to say goodbye to the Liverpool attacker.

They also talk about why Kai Havertz (£7.4m) is a must-have, which players to pick from Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur for their Double Gameweek 35, and what to do with Ollie Watkins (£8.9m).
