After a day of modest Wildcard and Triple Captain returns, as well as the odd success story, our Scoreboard rounds up the key Fantasy Premier League (FPL) numbers.

The goals, assists, defensive contributions (DefCon) and bonus point summaries are from our new Match Centre.

Meanwhile, the tables of shots, chances created and expected goals (xG) are official Opta data taken from our Members Area.

    Shaw set to drop tonight. At least Konsa is still 4.4m.

      Looks like he might be fine for tonight on official FPL page, though he could go tomorrow

      55 feels ok with Saka to play and a decent green arrow so far on FH. If I’d not swapped Gakpo and Ajer out for Collins and Munoz I’d be sat here on 64 and feeling much better but I feel like most have had a poor week so I’m doing ok considering. I feel like the wc peeps have probably come off a bit worse with the Cherki early sub, the fact that Newcastle maybe don’t look as good as people thought they did, the Foden benching, etc, but maybe Chelsea attackers will go big vs Arsenal, though I doubt it tbh. TCers are about par. A return and 3 bonus isn’t awful on a TC at all. Even though we’re normally chasing mega hauls they can’t really be predicted with much certainty, esp in a single GW, so a return rather than a blank is probably ok for those guys

    Would you opt for WC?

    Verb/Kinsky
    Gvardiol/Calafiori/Ajer/Rodon/Diop
    Bruno/Cherki/Szobo/Tzolis/Gomez
    Haaland/JPedro/DCL

    It's sort of obvious that content creators have clocked that double chips that boost your rank are good for views, until January 1st.

    The only ranks that actually count, relatively, these days are Gw19 and especially Gw38.

    Enjoy your ride or rise!

      They have to be muted now on social media. Can’t open twitter without seeing constant rumours made out of thin-air

      Then there’s the advice they give that comes straight from FPL Review, Solio and other analytic sites.

      It’s a different game to what we had years ago and not as fun imo

  5. Supersonic_
    • 5 Years
    2 hours, 9 mins ago

    No Isak, but already have Palmer and Pedro in place.

    Have Maguire, Haaland, Cherki, Gvardiol for the derby and dont really fancy that game being full of goals.

    Should I Free hit?

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years

      Yes

    2. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year

      I’d need to see the full squad

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Yes

  6. Supersonic_

    2 hours, 6 mins ago

    Also. As unlikely as it may be (but who saw City vs Cov ending 1-0) could really do with Pedro and Palmer doing something against arsenal. Goal fest would be ideal

    Outside of Arsenal defenders, who are the best defenders to get in?!

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      1 hour, 52 mins ago

      The ones playing COV

    2. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 49 mins ago

      I like Muharemovic/Vuskovic. De Cuyper nice short term. Brentford defence are usually decent though we’ll have to see if that changes if Collins is out for a while. Forest defence might come good before too long, Munoz, Milenkovic, Williams all interesting options. Gvardiol seems good. Hall might be ok but I’d like to see some more defensive solidity from Newcastle, despite his great attacking threat.

      Having said all of that, you should probably own at least two Arsenal defenders so don’t forget to put them in!

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Hull? 😉

      1. Mr Turnip 1
        • 1 Year
        1 hour, 12 mins ago

        Not terrible as fifth defenders tbf. I might still prefer Bobby Thomas

  8. KLOPPTOMANIA
    • 16 Years
    1 hour, 57 mins ago

    Would Pedro for Isak be enough for next week? Or better to WC, noting I’ve a reserve GK that’s gone to York City and insufficient Chelsea coverage?

    Kinsky
    White Gvardiol Maguire Calafiori
    Cherki Fernandes Szoboszlai Sangare
    Haaland Isak (Thomas Slater Walle-Egeli)

    1. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 27 mins ago

      I wouldn’t sell Joao Pedro before Hull at home in a million years. Hull have been lucky, not solid. Fulham have been bad yes, but it’s not like JP hasn’t been performing…

      I think Isak is good but not essential at his price. No need to wc just to get him. You can do it if you want to change the rest of the team too

      1. KLOPPTOMANIA
        • 16 Years
        1 hour, 14 mins ago

        Sorry I meant sell Isak to get Pedro in?

        1. Mr Turnip 1
          • 1 Year
          1 hour, 11 mins ago

          I’m with you now.

          How many transfers do you have?

          I don’t know if I’d want to sell Isak before Fulham at home either…

          I think I prefer something like Cherki to Rogers on wc given the reduced minutes this week

          1. Mr Turnip 1
            • 1 Year
            1 hour, 11 mins ago

            Check to Rogers interesting

      I heard they're in for Bruno Fernandes in January. It's almost a done deal.

    How are Cherki owners feeling?

    1. KLOPPTOMANIA

      Slightly nervous of rotation

    2. Baps Hunter

      No problems. Him to Rogers was the plan, but I just might sell MGW.

    who are ppl going for Rodon replacement?

    1. FPL_trail_runner
      • 6 Years
      1 hour, 51 mins ago

      May let him rot on the bench for a few weeks, but also considering a FT to Van Hecke as i have 0,5mil and can absorb the 0.1 drop before next deadline.

      1. Manani
        • 14 Years
        1 hour, 29 mins ago

        my other is Robertson and Thomas, so would rather switch him out now

    2. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      1 hour, 50 mins ago

      Did you say Foden replacement?

    3. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      1 hour, 50 mins ago

      Konsa or Palestra could be good if start tomorrow. Otherwise Hall/Muhremovic look good as well.

    4. terranullius
      • 2 Years
      1 hour, 48 mins ago

      Maybe Hall or Dedic

    5. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 31 mins ago

      I’d get Konsa if he starts tmr

  12. Karan_G14
    • 10 Years
    1 hour, 52 mins ago

    Verb
    Calafiori Ajer Davis
    Bruno Cherki Szobo Grosß
    Haaland Pedro DCL

    (Kinsky Ndiaye Maguire Rodon*)
    2 FTs & 0.5m

    A) Cherki & Rodon ➡️ Rogers & Hall/Muhremovic
    B) Bruno & Cherki ➡️ Palmer & Saka

    Appreciate your thoughts! 🙂

    1. terranullius
      • 2 Years

      A for me.

    2. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 25 mins ago

      Thats a really tough call. I like B a lot but playing Leif Davis doesn’t feel great so maybe it’s A and captain JP

  13. terranullius

    I'm on 48 points with 5 to play. No FH, no WC, no Haaland!

    Anyone else not so confident now about TC Palmer?
    HUL look the strongest of the 3 promoted.

    1. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      46 mins ago

      I wouldn't be TC vs Hull. The stats don't support it. I'd be looking for the combination of free scoring and collapsed defence.

      Having said that. Hulls live xGC was 4.9 today. They've been lucky

    2. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      38 mins ago

      I want to see what they’re like vs Arsenal

      Rn I’m leaning towards Haaland vs Ipswich in 7

  15. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 14 Years
    1 hour, 45 mins ago

    Damn, just saw that Semenyo is showing as "Very likely to drop" in price. What are owners doing? I also have Haaland/Gvardiol - not sure if to FT to Cherki or with some possible rotation look outside of Man City

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 14 Years
      1 hour, 43 mins ago

      I have enough to swap to Palmer, tempting

      1. Mr Turnip 1
        • 1 Year
        1 hour, 41 mins ago

        If you can get Palmer I would tbf…

        1. Mr Turnip 1
          • 1 Year
          1 hour, 40 mins ago

          I would need to make two moves which feels like quite a commitment for me

    2. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 41 mins ago

      Selling to Rogers feels good, except that he hasn’t played yet.

      I’ve already eaten 0.2 in price drops and might eat another 0.2 tonight, but I just feel like we know so little about this season that it makes sense to hold for all the info before making transfers? CL starts this week, there’s cup games too, ppl might get injured. That might be over cautious on my part but Semenyo will be up against Luke Shaw next week, so he could well return something, and I don’t yet know if I want all of Palmer and Rogers or not

      1. Hughes Your Daddy
        • 14 Years
        1 hour, 38 mins ago

        Yep, true. Its tough to call it right now. With no European games for Chelsea does make me want to look towards Palmer/Rogers as more certain minutes.

        1. Mr Turnip 1
          • 1 Year
          1 hour, 17 mins ago

          Long term you’re probably right, but I feel Semenyo safe for minutes now. I’m more worried that the width he’s being asked to hold has reduced his goal threat to almost nil, even though he’s doing great with the assists

  16. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    1 hour, 43 mins ago

    -43% red arrow with TC played lol
    I can never get the chips right! FH has been ok, but TC and BB awful most seasons

    1. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 20 mins ago

      It’s hard tbh, though I feel like this TC has been about par for a single GW. You can’t ever guarantee a mega haul, but this week was as good a bet as any and you’ve ended up with 9 points. It could easily have been a blank.

      I agree on BB being hard to nail. This season feels like the first time I’ve ever really managed it, and I’ve been playing properly for maybe 7-8 years now!

    2. Manani
      • 14 Years
      1 hour, 2 mins ago

      that's because a lot of ppl have TC played as well, so any gain will be relied on other players

  17. FantasyClub
    • 5 Years
    1 hour, 42 mins ago

    Ive had MGW since the start. Watched him v Liverpool & Spurs and he has not passed the eye test and the stats arent good either. Crazy to get rid?

    1. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 19 mins ago

      Not crazy at all imo, his stats have never been amazing, he massively overperformed last year. Esp not crazy if you’re buying Rogers.

      Probably worth waiting until you’re sure Rogers isn’t injured though

      1. FantasyClub
        • 5 Years
        1 hour, 18 mins ago

        Is there an injury cloud around him?

        1. Mr Turnip 1
          • 1 Year
          1 hour, 16 mins ago

          No but he hasn’t played yet and there are cup games this week I think.

          Don’t think MGW is due a drop so no reason not to wait

          1. FantasyClub
            • 5 Years
            1 hour, 14 mins ago

            Ok yeah well i think imma hit tge WC. Want rid of Thiago and Oreilly and co

            1. Mr Turnip 1
              • 1 Year
              1 hour, 1 min ago

              O’Reilly fair enough.

              Thiago you probably could give at least one more game, probably more. He’s been super unlucky not to score. I say that as a Thiago owner myself. Bournemouth seem a leaky defence, as do Chelsea tbh, and Thiago is quite good in the counter too

      2. FantasyClub
        • 5 Years
        1 hour, 15 mins ago

        The allure with MGW is talisman, 90' and on pens and thats great but ive watched him closely coz i like him and hes been very underwhelming in all aspects...shots, chance creation etc. Even his heat map is too deep not close enough to the box

    is Palmer absolutely necessary for GW4? their fixtures arent even that good after next GW. Thinking Rogers + JP is enough

    1. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      41 mins ago

      I mean he feels great to me. Hull have been lucky, not solid. Their xGC is pretty poor and they’ve played a relegation rival, a decimated Villa team, and a Utd side which is generally good going forward but struggles with low blocks

      I’m likely to WC5-6 though so I guess for me he is more sort term so maybe better

      Chelsea will get a real test tomorrow so we’ll see how good they look after that

      1. FantasyClub
        • 5 Years
        26 mins ago

        Would you still TC Palmer after 3 clean sheets for HUL?
        Not saying Chelsea wont score bit im less optimistic about a massive score line now

        1. Mr Turnip 1
          • 1 Year
          19 mins ago

          I think Hull have got very lucky

          Their xGC is about 5, and like I said they haven’t played the best attacks.

          If Palmer can perform against the best defence in the league, I will be less worried about hitting the TC v Hull because Hull are not a good defence, they are a lucky team who have mostly played poor attacks

          1. FantasyClub
            • 5 Years
            3 mins ago

            Well yeah i agree theres that caveat. If he performs v Arsenal the best defence then yeah

    2. potatoace

      I don't think he is . Jp and rogers would do you.

      I would disagree though re following fixtures. They're nice and plumb

    Lads i brought in Isak on FH and i need him for FUL at home. Sublime footwork.
    However, that early sub and Iraolas comments have spooked me.

    1. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 22 mins ago

      I don’t think you need him for Fulham at home unless you have a striker you need to sell and a convenient way to make the switch

      1. Mr Turnip 1
        • 1 Year
        1 hour, 21 mins ago

        He may continue to get early subs as CL begins, and his xG wasn’t actually that good yesterday, though it was good in the two games prior

      2. FantasyClub
        • 5 Years
        1 hour, 10 mins ago

        I agree but i like what i saw and Thiago has really pissed me off now

          Hahaha I get you on Thiago, he’s been a frustrating own! I’m keeping him for bou, but will probably ditch him on my 5/6 wc

      I think it’s C give the minutes concerns around both Cherki and Foden

      If that involves a hit though you should probably keep Cherki given he started this week and then look to sell later

      Not sure with Ode - any funds for Saka and Tavernier?

        yeah if I was to do Raya to a 5m GK, De Cuyper to Konsa, Ode to Saka and then MGW to Scott/Tav?

      Tasty

      I’m not the biggest MGW fan. Given you have eight attackers, I’d look to Groß as a rotation option and upgrade a mid/defender. Odegaard to Saka perhaps a stretch but you could go Egan/Thomas to Gvardiol, then you wouldn’t have as many issues when Mitoma returns from injury/if Newcastle continue to concede

      I also like Mbeumo tbh if you want another mod instead

    Is Shaw a minutes risk? Even if he falls I’d rather keep the FT for an emergency like Rodon was

      I don’t think so. Carrick seems to prefer Dorgu LW to LB

      Great team.

      Are Brentford really a defence to target on FH? Don’t know about Tav. He’s doing well to start the season tbf and Bou attack look good but I just don’t know whether there are better options there

        Also Truffert expensive SS bench pick on FH. I wouldn’t spend that much on someone who profs won’t play

    Just saw the city highlights, keeping Cherki for now, but maybe his last week in the team, Selling Rodon and getting my BB1 hero De Cuyper back in, avoids the 0.1 drop. 100% locked into FH5 now

    All set for wk 4

    I now somehow own Elvedi.

    Did Rodon to Elvedi instead of Muha / De Cup. That extra 0,5mil can be nice in a few weeks.
