FPL Gameweek 5: Wednesday’s goals, assists, bonus and statistics

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.

    After back to bsck hattys, the question even seems a bit funny to ask. But gotta be asked I guess.

    Captain:

    A: Haaland
    B: KDB

      Haaland is widely expected to be benched against Villa so I would look elsewhere. There is the possibility that he isn't since he came off early but given the games coming up (Sevilla, Spurs, Dortmund, Wolves), I think it's inevitable

            As was seen with Agüero, Pep is far more concerned about player fitness and squad rhythm than individual records

            If Haaland breaks a record and his hamstring goes, what do they actually gain?

          "I tell you now when we have games every three days that Erling will not play, I will play Julian [Alvarez]"

          Dortmund (4 days)

            I think he'll get rested against Villa and Wolves. City need to wrap up their CL group as soon as possible and will field strong teams from their 1st 2 CL games to avoid a bad start. Can't see him being rested against Spurs either.

            May have his minutes managed in those 3 middle games but think he'll start all of them

          He's had injury history and between last night's game and Wolves, City are playing 6 games in 18 days. Pep won't care about records, he'll care about having him fit for the majority of the season. There has rarely been any midfielder or forward that he will never bench, especially not someone that has had a history with injuries

          Pep just benched KDB, and has promised to bench Haaland in the current circumstances, in clear words

          It's hard to take missing his hat tricks, but that won't be reversed by capping him when Pep's most likely to bench him

          Yes, there's a chance he starts or hauls off the bench. But many things point at a rest here

      Haaland may well be benched but you have a choice to weigh up

      1 - just captian Haaland, his EO will mean you will not drop too much if he is rested and blanks
      2 - captain some one else, and if they haul and Haaland is rested and blanks then you will rise like a phoenix out of the ashes

      1 is the safe option
      2 is ballsy

      Do you have the cahunas for 2? 😉

    A few random stats from the early games of the season:

    - City unsurprisingly have the best goal difference, expected goals and expected goals against stats
    - Ignoring Forest and Bournemouth (considering recent thumpings), Aston Villa have the worst goal difference, with Leicester a goal behind them but still to play this gameweek. Leicester have also conceded the most goals outside of Forest and Bournemouth (10)
    - Everton are just shy of having the highest expected goals against (8.6, to Forest's 8.7)
    - Liverpool have taken the most shots (94), while City and Arsenal have the most shots on target (32)
    - Away from the top 6, Everton, Brentford and Leeds lead the way for shots on target
    - Fulham and Southampton have the worst pass completion rate in the division (you don't even need to wonder who has the best)
    - Everton, Palace and Southampton have made the most tackles in their own defensive third, while Chelsea, Brighton and Fulham have won the ball the most in the attacking third
    - Bournemouth, West Ham and (somewhat surprisingly) Spurs have the fewest touches in the final third
    - Forest, Bournemouth and again Spurs have conceded the most shots, although Spurs have by far conceded the highest number of off-target attempts
    - Outside of Forest and Bournemouth, Brentford, Newcastle, Villa and Chelsea have conceded the most on-target shots
    - The lowest number of shots Forest have conceded in a game was yesterday against City (17) and after that against Spurs (18)
    - Forest, ManUtd, Villa and Fulham have received the most yellow cards, while Villa, Leeds and Palace have made the most fouls

        A big part of that has been Everton’s style of play - no recognised striker in all but one of the games (Rondon) with almost no ball retention further up the field. They have invited pressure in their own half in every game - and have actually looked decent as a defensive unit - but that style of play racks up lots of half chances with low Xga building up.

        I think they looked better again against Leeds - first time starting with a 4 3 3 - and I think they’ll play the same formation against Liverpool, but with a recognised striker - Maupay.

      Yeah, but Jesus’s captaincy will be fairly low, so his EO will probably be around 100% taking dead teams into account - and in the higher ranks, maybe around 80% - so he’s not really a problem if you own him.

      The Haaland/Salah EO will be harder to navigate.

    For all this...

    "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."

    If you have both Haaland and Salah and captained Salah this week it's only 7 points less.

    So the hattrick was only 7 points more with the max bonus than Salah's 2 assists from midfield and 2 point bonus.

    93 all out. Anyone beat that? Nice little rank rise there but still around the million mark after a few odd weeks where I didn't do much wrong really. Good score despite Neto and Havertz continuing to let down the side!

    Need to let one of them go this week. Most likely Havertz who may well get dropped from the Chelsea team after another poor review. With two free transfers tempting to do both though and bring in Gross or MacAllister from Brighton. Would you keep Neto for one more week?
    Toney or Isak in for Havertz?

        Shouldn't matter if it's percentage based. But maybe it's not. Or they changed the algorithm.

        Thing is, with the wildcard rules now, could be that a fine use of it would have been to protect/increase value and do a bit of "tidying up"

    What do you think of Mitrovic to Isaak? Few tough games coming for Fulham but he is scoring. Isaak looked really lively last night though and Newcastle, who have been decent already, always better with a 9. I had Mitrovic before the price rises so I make profit but buy back isn't free.

          I don't think 3 big hitters are sensible, given you can only captain one at a time.

          Also you're missing the biggest one, Haaland. He needs to be a priority.

              Stones out maybe. Akanji just signed. More competition.

              Will free up a City slot for Haaland next week.

              Given KDB's rest, might as well keep this week. But I think Haaland is the best City captain long-term, so might want to spread the KDB funds out soon.

      There are too many affordable players this season to be bothered by price changes

      And the market is far, far too reactive this season. Two underwhelming GWs, and a player is close to dropping. Probably because, again, there are many good alternatives

      Heck, some people sold Haaland after he only got one assist against Bournemouth and one goal vs Newcastle

      Focus on points potential. You'll still afford a great team if you start with 100m on a new account today:

      Sanchez Ward
      Trent Cancelo Cucurella Trippier Williams
      Salah Groß Martinelli Andreas 4.5
      Toney Håland Jesus
