How Aubameyang compares to other FPL midfielders after positional change

16 August 2020 1530 comments

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£12.0m) will be a midfielder in Fantasy Premier League next season following the game’s relaunch.

The move comes about following Aubameyang’s half-season spell on the left flank, with Mikel Arteta’s appointment as Arsenal manager in December signalling a change of role for the Gabon international in the Gunners’ attack.

The reclassification further swells the premium options available to us in the middle of the park, with Marcus Rashford (£9.5m) also making the move to ‘FPL midfielder’ and Kevin De Bruyne (£11.5m) and Bruno Fernandes (£10.5m) rising considerably in price.

How does Aubameyang compare with the other heavy hitters after his positional switch, then?

Our Members article below delves into the data.

    Amey if you're still around...

    4.5 | 4
    TAA | VVD | Robertson | Doherty | Vinagre
    Auba | Sterling | KDB | Soucek
    Mitro

    4 - Romeu - Vassi - Davis

    .5 ITB

    The current trend is to hop skotch from one player to another... I'm useless at it. I think you have to find a team you keep your nerve with and show tantric patience.

      Not for me, you'll be left behind by the more popular picks a lot of weeks and I'll don't think you'll cover those points in the weeks where your differentials do well. There's a few who will face a fair bit of rotation too (Kun, Ake, Jota)

        Haven't checked but my memory was that KdB was comparatively fixture neutral as a captain - ie he returned against Liverpool and not Brighton - whereas Sterling returned hauls in a slightly more predictable way in prime fixtures.

        If so in a prime fixture I'd prefer Sterling but if it was fairly neutral and a matter of rotating captains with Bruno say I'd more likely go KdB.

        Mean to look at patterns of returns last season.

          fair point. I also think that kdb is more likely to get at least an assist in 3 out of 4 fixtures so leaving him captan the whole season could also work, but it means missing hauls from likes of auba, salah or sterling.

            Difference with KdB this time is that he'll be an easy switch in and out and there's less likelihood that he'll accumulate too much value to sell and buy back.

    Mad how people are writing off strikers. The fact not a single one costs more than 10.5 mil is awesome. Yes midfielders get 1 more point for a goal (and another for a CS) but strikers get more bonus per goal. Kinda balances it out esp with the price points.

    Kane and Werner will have 200 point seasons imo. Kane finished the season strongly and because of the short turnaround i see him motivated and firing from the start.

      It's quite possible Kane and Werner will have 200 point seasons.

      Problem is, it's also likely that several defenders will get 170-180 points at a fraction of the cost.

      Additionally, you'll rarely ever captain your forwards if you own Salah, KDB, Bruno, etc which makes them poor value.
