Can Wolves’ FPL assets perform as well in 2019/20?

Wolverhampton Wanderers were one of the big success stories of last season, with Nuno Espirito Santo’s impressive side finishing seventh in their first Premier League campaign in six years.

The West Midlands club offered Fantasy managers some notable bargain buys, with Matt Doherty (£6.0m), Diogo Jota (£6.5m) and Raul Jimenez (£7.5m) the three stand-out assets.

Doherty, Jimenez and several others have been handed price rises in Fantasy Premier League this summer, however, and aren’t quite the cut-price gems they were 12 months ago.

Do Wolves players still appeal, then, going into 2019/20?

Our 20th and final Numbers Game piece looks at Wanderers’ underlying data from last season to see if the numbers of 2018/19 can be repeated in the upcoming campaign.

      If you want surety of start, go with VVD. It'll save you 1mn over Moura. If you don't mind the occasional benching/truncated minutes, go for TAA.

      No one should have been holding out hope for that one, in all honesty.

      A £4.0m starter will most likely emerge, but usually only once a few regular starters pick up long term injuries.

      If Kane doesn't do anything against Villa he's effectively worthless till GW3 anyway.
