Transfers

Market Forces – Gameweek 12

Another dramatic weekend saw the midfield firmly reassert itself as a target for big Fantasy investment.

The surprise, explosive return of Paul Pogba, another big score from Mohamed Salah and a Gameweek-high tally from Eden Hazard has meant that Fantasy managers are putting their five-man midfield under scrutiny. And, for once, Manchester City’s assets are not on the agenda.

Harry Kane’s failings and the continued rotation in Pep Guardiola’s frontline helped ensure that midfielders were the main focus.

However, there was at least a resurgence in the cheap striker bracket, with Oumar Niasse and Callum Wilson showing form and submitting their CV’s as perfect enablers for midfield investment.

Meanwhile, at the back, the inexorable rise of Stephen Ward continues, thanks to another Man City asset suffering sales.

Continuing our series of weekly articles, we at whogottheassist.com are reviewing and commenting on trends and behaviours in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) marketplace, looking at common themes and giving our view on the viability of the transfers taking place.

Pogback with a bang

Last season many Fantasy managers turned to 3-5-2 as the go-to formation, with big-ticket midfielders Alexis Sanchez, Eden Hazard and one or both of Spurs duo Dele Alli and Christian Eriksen squeezed into line-ups.

Savings came in the shape of Josh King as a cheap but hugely productive asset in midfield, with Victor Anichebe doing his bit as an enabler up front.

This season, the early prominence of premium defenders and strikers distracted Fantasy managers from a big spend in midfield.

However, we’re now seeing a shift, with that trend exploding into focus this week.

Paul Pogba’s 12-point comeback performance for Manchester United in just 69 minutes has sparked a rush to invest in the Frenchman.

His 8.0 price tag appears locked for seven days post-injury, meaning that his 224,000 investors so far have yet to impact on his valuation. But with his ownership continuing to climb as we approach Friday’s deadline, we will doubtless see one, or even two, increases ahead of Gameweeks 14 and 15.

Clearly, many see Pogba as a bargain and are swooping with Brighton due at Old Trafford on Saturday and a trip to Watford to follow soon after.

By contrast, team-mate Henrikh Mkhitaryan – whose form has dipped as dramatically as his price – is also back to his original 8.0 valuation as he continues to be sold in droves. Over 96,000 managers have parted ways with the Armenian, with almost 60,000 making the straight swap to Pogba.

Interestingly, Manchester City’s midfield options also appear to be suffering from Pogba’s return to prominence.

The tactic of doubling up on Pep Guardiola’s free-scoring options appears to have temporarily lost its appeal, with both Raheem Sterling (8.1 and 20,000+) and David Silva (8.4 and 14,000+) shedding owners directly to Pogba.

Salah maintains momentum

Mohamed Salah (9.6) gave us another virtuoso performance, with his brace against Southampton eliciting 16 points for his ownership, which now hovers around the 40% mark. His bandwagon shows no sign of slowing as managers cave in to his charms after back-to-back hauls and a seemingly relentless consistency.

More than 100,000 managers have brought the “winger” in so far despite a tough match-up with former employees Chelsea up next.

A major casualty of the rush for Salah is Christian Eriksen (9.5), who, astonishingly, is without an assist since Gameweek 2. Despite a kind looking run to come, another blank against Crystal Palace proved the final straw for many, with 80,000+ selling him on so far – 25,000 as part of a direct trade to Salah.

Wilson and Niasse pounce on Tammy setback

Gameweek 12 has also signalled a major shift in the budget striker market.

Just as Fantasy managers potentially lost one cut-price option, so another two compelling candidates stepped up to fill the potential void.

Oumar Niasse (5.0) at Everton and Callum Wilson (6.0) at Bournemouth were the only two strikers to hit double figures at the weekend, coinciding with Tammy Abraham’s (6.0) injury in Swansea City’s 2-0 away defeat to Burnley.

Abraham has since sustained 94,000 sales and 35,000+ of these have been trades to Niasse, while over 25,000 have moved to Wilson.

There are several twists in this particular tale, not least the fact that Swansea seem confident on Abraham’s return to face Bournemouth this weekend.

Secondly, Niasse has had his short-term appeal dented by the FA only this morning.

Niasse harvested a 10-point return at Crystal Palace and is currently the second most bought player, with 129,000 managers rushing to exploit his potential to free up funds. However, with the FA’s charge revealed earlier today, those owners will likely have to do without the Senegalese for the next two matches. It will be interesting to see if that reverses the market trend, with Niasse’s 5.4% ownership suffering a dip.

Elsewhere, Wilson’s warming return to FPL relevance after injury arrived via an explosive 17-point hat-trick. That treble against Huddersfield Town rewarded the intrepid 3,393 managers who acquired his services ahead of the Terriers clash.

With a very favourable run of short-term fixtures, Wilson has prompted 80,000 to swoop ahead of his away trip to a vulnerable Swansea defence.

Morata in vogue

Despite the top five strikers being placed just 10 points apart, a goal and an assist at West Brom has seen Alvaro Morata (10.5) continue to soar as the market’s forward option of choice.

A promising run of fixtures after Saturday’s trip to Liverpool has urged another 113,000+ to snap up the Chelsea striker, with Spurs’ Harry Kane (12.8) and City’s Sergio Aguero (11.7) predictably the players shedding owners.

That pair suffered significant blows to their stock in Gameweek 12. Kane blanked for the first time in a north London derby on Saturday, while Aguero recorded yet another no-show in an away fixture.

The uncertainty surrounding Aguero’s starting role has seen many of his owners take action, with his price falling as a result of more than 94,000 sales – over a third of which have been trades to Morata.

While a trip to Huddersfield is up next, Pep Guardiola’s statements in yesterday’s Champions League press conference appeared to confirm that Aguero remains in a job share with Gabriel Jesus. The Brazilian has started all of Man City’s away matches so far, which would suggest that Aguero will again have his minutes cut against the Terriers.

As for Kane, he has been sold off by 50,000 with managerless West Brom up next.

Despite causing despair following his recent failures as captain, the fear factor remains a consideration with Kane.

Capable of punishing a beleaguered Baggies, his Gameweek 13 potential will doubtless be slowing sales. However, a lack of convincing alternatives – aside from Morata – has also helped his cause and urged many to ignore recent disappointments and show patience.

Dropping like Stones

A hamstring injury sustained against Leicester City has ruled Man City centre-half John Stones out for the Christmas period.

Heavy sales have inevitably followed and he’s the most discarded asset ahead of Friday, with 102,000 managers showing him the exit.

More than 20,000 have so far swapped for his defensive partner Nicolas Otamendi, who returns from suspension for Gameweek 13. Arsenal’s Sead Kolasinac and Bournemouth’s Charlie Daniels are the other two key targets benefitting from the Stones fallout.

However, his injury has also helped to maintain the meteoric rise of Burnley’s Stephen Ward. He is now the top-owned defender in the game (21.2%) and has attracted another 61,000 managers this Gameweek. Ward has also risen from his initial valuation of 4.5 to a princely 5.0.

Sales of early-season favourite Ahmed Hegazi and the crocked Phil Jones have also benefitted Ward. Some 7,500 have made the direct Jones to Ward swap.

Those seeking Burnley representation in their backlines, but now baulking at Ward’s inflated price, are considering Nick Pope in goal. He earned two bonus points against Swansea despite registering just a single save.

Pope is surpassing David de Gea for transfers in (17,000 vs 13,000), while some (8,000+) have downgraded the Man United stopper in another bid to free up investment funds.

In conclusion

We are now careering into a period of intense Fantasy activity, with Gameweeks coming thick and fast – nine of them between now and New Year’s Day.

Accordingly, the market could pick up pace.

This Gameweek, only 5.7 million transfers were made, the third lowest so far. Will this number be sustained, or will the quick turnover in rounds catch out those less attentive?

There are two notable trends to monitor: the move towards midfield investment to set up a 3-5-2 formation and the drive to acquire an active bench ahead of the Christmas schedule.

Pogba as a potentially cheap heavy-hitter, along with the emerging cut-price options in attack, can only help facilitate matters.

The movement away from Man City assets is also of interest.

The fact that Leroy Sane is the only significant riser among City’s squad indicates that rotation concerns may be reducing confidence and encouraging managers to consider alternatives. The trades from Silva and Sterling to Pogba illustrate this and could continue, depending on Gameweek 13 performances.

    Hazard played like Messi the last couple of games (could've scored a few vs United too). If WBA weren't so bad, I'd surely captain him over Kane. It's clear Kane's short on fitness and CL's involvement is only exacerbating the issue.

      Not worth it vs Liv but he's a great cap option after that

        The fact that it's Liverpool makes it worth it. Klop won't sacrifice his philosophy. Look at the game vs Man city.

        6 years, 4 months ago

        That's true, though from little of what I watched, they were let off the hook quiet a few times due to poor finishing from their opponents. But I actually agree, Kane's a better option because of this stat.

      Why would you want to get rid of Azpi?

      1. The Special Wan

        6 years, 4 months ago

        Thinking of getting two solid defense kola & Otamendi, plus already have Morata & Hazard for Chelsea coverage

    3. Magic Andrés
      • 6 Years

    Phil Jones conundrum. Should I?

    A) Sell for Otamendi
    B) Sell for someone else
    C) Use my .5 ITB to upgrade elsewhere

    If I do it this week would be for a -4

    Rest of my defence is Alonso, Mee, Naughton, Tuanzebe

  4. palace ash

    What are peoples thoughts on Christensen (5.4) as a route into Chelseas defence?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Excellent pick

    2. Postbox12
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Avoid. Rotation risk and limited history of set piece returns. Better off with Courtois

    3. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Not nailed, no-go!

  5. La Roja

    Talisca scores 1-1

    1. dark91

      Hope Babel scores

  6. I Member

    With Jones confirmed out which is my best option:

    Elliot
    Jones*, Daniels, Naughton
    Eriksen, Salah, Sterling, Richarlison
    Kane, Jesus, Vardy

    Foster; Mee, Moreno, Chalobah.

    1 FT 0.3 ITB

    A) Eriksen -> Sane
    B) Jones -> Mustafi
    C) Eriksen + Jones -> Sane + 6.0m defender (Sanchez/Christensen/Mustafi) -4
    D) Eriksen + Jones -> Pogba + 7.0m defender (Alonso/Azpilicueta) -4

    1. Postbox12
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I like D followed by a Vardy downgrade and Hazard for Sterling

  7. R.C
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Mustafi or Daniels?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Both.

    2. Postbox12
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Mustafi is a great pick but don't like arsenal fixtures coming up

      1. stat
          6 years, 4 months ago

          bur HUD MUN sou whu NEW LIV cpa

          Surely a couple clean sheets in that run?

          1. L S P
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 4 months ago

            probably but the poor away record is a concern and i think MANU will be resurgent when they come to the emirates.

            HUD and NEW are the ones i'd bank on but is that enough?

            (I'm an Arsenal fan.)

            1. stat
                6 years, 4 months ago

                I think we would have done better away from home had Mustafi been fit. But in those 8 fixtures I see at least 4 clean sheets (HUD, sou, NEW, cpa) and he could easily get attacking returns in the next 8 with his aerial threat.

                1. L S P
                  • 8 Years
                  6 years, 4 months ago

                  i'm at least waiting to see what happens against Burnley before becoming genuinely interested.

                  Besides i'd rather have City/Chelsea D, which I have, only problem is it's Stones/Luiz. :-/

                  1. stat
                      6 years, 4 months ago

                      Christensen at 5.4 would be ideal but we have no idea how nailed on he is, and I don't feel like taking a gamble like that with such a heavy schedule coming up.

                      1. Sims
                        • 7 Years
                        6 years, 4 months ago

                        he'll miss games for sure

                        1. stat
                            6 years, 4 months ago

                            Yep, so unfortunately he's not one to consider.

                  2. The Special Wan
                    • 6 Years
                    6 years, 4 months ago

                    What do u think of Kola?? Thinking of getting him after Burnley.

                    1. stat
                        6 years, 4 months ago

                        I already have him. Season keeper for me. We are very strong defensively at home and he gets forward a lot when we play against weak opposition.

              • stat
                  6 years, 4 months ago

                  Trying to figure this out as well. Mustafi obviously more likely to keep a CS and a threat from corners but 0.4m more expensive than a player who also has decent fixtures and is also quite threatening. Tough one.

                  1. R.C
                    • 6 Years
                    6 years, 4 months ago

                    Mustafi is nailed 100%?

                    1. stat
                        6 years, 4 months ago

                        Yeah, Wenger's preferred 3 when we play 5 at the back is Monreal - Koscielny - Mustafi. If we play with 4 at the back then I'm sure Mustafi will partner Koscielny over Monreal as he's more of a natural CB.

                  2. Postbox12
                    • 9 Years
                    6 years, 4 months ago

                    Daniels too short term for me

                  3. Postbox12
                    • 9 Years
                    6 years, 4 months ago

                    They've kept 5 clean sheets in 6 when Mustafi has played. He's nailed.

                    I see 3 clean sheets in those 8. Guess that would be an alright return but he's not exactly a BPS magnet when they do keep a clean sheet either

                  What would you do?

                  A - Jones to Mustafi this week (£5.6m budget)

                  B - Wait a GW, take the 0.1 drop, play RLC instead, and then get Otamendi in for GW14?

                  Thought number 2:
                  How freaking good is Richarlison!? The Kid is tearing up defenses apart (including the big team's, for example Chelsea's) in terms of creating opportunities or getting in scoring positions. He's so raw though, but considering that this is his nascent showing in PL (most competitive league in the world" tm), he has a real chance of polishing his finishing THIS season. The BAPS and goals will surely keep him in top end of FPL standings.

                      That's what I meant in my post, once he improves his finishing he will get the baps. He's currently not getting them because he's missing the target too much.

                          Of course that's a possibility, but considering that he so far outperformed any realistic expectations, I'm hopeful.

                  Should probably get rid of Jones. Particularly as Femenia also a doubt. BUT so tempted to do something like Aguero + Carroll --> Pogba/Ozil + Wilson

                  Mustafi is nailed 100%?

                  1FT and 0 itb
                  A) sell Jones to Maguire
                  B)Keep Jones and play Azpi

                    You dont bench player like Azpi.
                    And about Jones, depends on whether you can take the 0.1 drop the upcoming week

                  Phil Jones should be sold, should’t he?

                  Just read that he’s ruled out of Utd’s UCL game and the game vs. Brighton.

                    With his injury record I wouldnt hold on to him during busy period ahead.
                    People that bought him for 5.0 might sit and wait but if you paid more sell and try to get De Gea in.

                      I bought Jones for 5.2 and can sell him for 5.3. Already have DDG. Here’s my team;

                      DDG Elliot
                      Otamendi Jones Daniels Naughton Long
                      Salah DSilva Richarlison RLC Tarroll
                      Kane Lukaku Morata

                        I would cash in and look for 100% nailed defender.

                    Jones > Mustafi ?

                    I had Monreal until GW13, but sold him to buy Kaku... Prefer him to Mustafi, but don't have enough cash.

                  Any NEW fans around? Is Dummett first choice when fit? He’s only 4.2M and just completed his first full training after his injury. Could be cheap Jones replacement.

                      I don't really like their fixtures, but he could be the ideal 5th defender if he's nailed on (I think he is).

                        Agreed on 5th defender. Cheers.

                    @mufc team news Jones "has a proper injury " does not play and ruled out for bri game what are owners planning now?

                      I don’t own but reckon you should get rid.
                      We are all going to need full squads with the fixture congestion that’s coming up.
                      No place for a player like Jones at this time...

                          In 12 games, Stoke have only failed to score twice (vs Everton in GW 1 and Chelsea in GW 6).

                          city and united conceded more vs stoke

                      start moreno or ship jones and start replacement?

                        Start Moreno, any other defender likely wont make up the -4

                            it's free but with only .4 itb i cant get otamendi

                            if i wait another gw i can get possibly azpil or alonso or ota by downgrading elsewhere with the extra transfer

                        Same dilemma, but with RLC.

                        Would mean Mustafi in this week or Otamendi next, with the 2FTs.

                            Now and then I guess

                          Is Hazard worth it?
