The Scoreboard presents all the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) numbers you need from Wednesday’s matches all on one screen, from LiveFPL‘s rundown of the goals, assists and bonus points to the underlying Opta stats that have freshly arrived in our Premium Members Area.

Erling Haaland (£11.8m) was the star turn of the evening with a hat-trick and a 17-point haul, with Gameweek 5 captaincy rival Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) having to make do with two assists in Liverpool’s last-gasp 2-1 win over Newcastle United – a match in which Alexander Isak (£7.0m) scored on his Magpies debut.

Gabriel Martinelli (£6.4m) and Gabriel Jesus (£8.2m) continued their fine starts to the season with goals for Arsenal against struggling Aston Villa, while Harry Kane (£11.4m) made it four attacking returns in as many matches with an assist in Tottenham Hotspur’s draw with West Ham United.

Managerless Bournemouth, the side thrashed 9-0 by Liverpool on Saturday, managed to hold Wolverhampton Wanderers to a goalless draw: that’s now just two goals in five matches for Bruno Lage’s troops.

Our usual Scout Notes article, which summarises more of the main FPL talking points, notable manager quotes and injury news, will follow tomorrow morning.

    With so many goals scored in extra time, don’t you think it’s strange how in these days of VAR that it seems to be at the referee’s whim how long he actually plays?

    On Tuesday, in the Leeds v Everton game, the ref blew up BEFORE the allotted 3 minutes extra. One night later, they deem there should be 5 minutes extra based on the previous 45 minutes - then add on a significantly higher percentage.

    I’d like to see the ‘in-play’ timing system adapted to cut it out.

      The obvious downside would perhaps be instead of wasting time with set-pieces and goal-kicks, that players would spend the game throwing themselves to the ground at every opportunity.

      Chelsea did this very effectively in the first game of the season having gone 0-1 up before half time and it ruined the game. The ref blew up every time. It’s total anti-football and anti-sport. I was at the game and was sat there reminiscing about watching women’s football where this shithousery is far less prevalent.

    On a WC would you rather have cancelo or TAA until the world cup

      TAA if just one, but would probably stick with both.
