Our Scoreboard rounds up the key Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Gameweek 8 numbers from Saturday’s matches.
The goals, assists, defensive contributions (DefCon) and bonus point summaries are from our new Match Centre.
The tables of shots, chances created and expected goals (xG) are official Opta data taken from our Members Area.
Each week wrong gk choice (gw1 Verb Kinsky still here).
Me too. Verbruggen might still do well!
Assuming Kinsky's the higher scorer this week, I've started the higher scorer 4/8 times, although that includes a GW1 BB.
Unlike previous years, that stacks up well against all the premium keepers other than Raya.
Same, plan was to use Leno over Trafford the last 2 weeks but I didn’t.. And now paying the price
Look at Chelsea's xG delta this season. This was always going to happen. It was just a matter of when.
Doesn't make any sense. Try again.
Chelsea had a +7.14 xG delta going into this game. They have been overachieving all season. Regression was in the post and it came through the letterbox and got delivered to Stamford Bridge tonight.
No Pedro no party
Regardless of xG, they were totally outplayed
Nearly 1 in 5 of their shots were goals. That's unsustainable. That's why I was so reluctant to jump on the Palmer, Rogers, Pedro triple up.
Brighton are the only team worse than Chelsea for a positive xG delta and a high conversion rate. They'll be next.
Is leno to kinsky worth it? Have verb too
Certainly good fixtures and seem to be keeping it quite tight at the back.
Yeh PAL next appealing. Leno v villa tricky
Can't sell Palmer before United.
TC?
When will people realise that the Cole Palmer from his breakout season has gone and is never coming back?
Yet you bought him anyway (apparently)
Palmer has been a disappointment, but you always have that thought at the back of your mind that he might randomly get a hatti. Was it last season where he was doing garbage then got 4 goals lol.
It was last season, Vs Wolves. It was the week I sold him!
I think I sold him a couple of weeks before.
I never watch the official FPL videos, but that week I actually did. One of the women on it had Palmer and she was like I think I will cap him! And the other two were like no way, sell him!
Lol, I never checked back what she did, but if she sold based on what they said, she would be rightfully furious lol
Play a) califirori liv (plus konsa) or b) egan IPS. Cheers
Cala might not play.
Flagged
Oh ok cheers. Can c liverpool scoring
Was there an issue with Calafiori, looked like Madueke finished the game at left-back?
“Yeah I wasn’t that mad to change those two from their positions. It was because he had a slight issue, we don't know what it is, it seems to be something very small, but he was cautious about it.”
Ok ta
Is that an Arteta quote? If it is, why on earth bring him on when they had like 4 other defenders on the bench.
Bruno>Palmer went well! Straight out for Manzambi now I think
If it helps he'll miss the Carabao game and be back for United. But you may still wish to sell. I just brought him in for Saka and I am tempted to get rid already
Oh ok thanks. I'll prob sell King then.
Haha I did the exact same move thanks to Zoph's rubbish advice
https://x.com/ZopharFPL/status/2113338018312716432
You do know that Zoph just guesses based on past data.
Data can nt take into account unpredictable factors such as petulance,weather. etc.
Make tor on decisions and own them, good or for bad.
If we all did that a lot of very rich FPL content creators would go out of business.
So.
So TUI would sell fewer 7 star holidays during the international breaks.
Sod this game, honestly. What the hell!
Welcome to my season.
You say this every season
Would you do Gonzalo to Jackson tonight to catch the price rise and avoid the fall?
My only concern is I have 3 yellow flags and the midweek cup games
Raya 4.0
*Cala Hall DeC *Thomas Davis
Mbuemo MGW Rogers Tav Gross
Haaland *JP Gonzalo
3FT 1.6ITB
Sure.
Wouldn't be surprised if he double rise this week.
You've 3ft
Appreciate it. I'll pull the trigger on that one and await more news on the flagged players
I would have taken all the grief today without a problem bar that Konsa 15 pointer that really hurt bad
First on my bench m8.
I had started Konsa and benched Calafiori but then Neale said Calafiori would start so I switched it.
Again… take ownership of your own team.
Again ... The whole premise of this website is to help us make the right FPL decisions. It's literally what it charges its members for.
Don’t blame them though.
They don’t get everything right.
Calafiori is ridiculously highly owned. They don't need to get everything right like whether the Ipswich CDM will start, just help us out with the really big calls that matter.
You believe anyone can predict a future that doesn't exist? Time isn't what you think it is. Look closely and see it only apparently appears in thought/ the mind
and they could see into a crystal ball and tell us that Calafiori and J.Pedro wouldn’t start today?
Come on! These things happen, no one can be to blame for their no shows.
I have them both too. It sucks but that’s life.
There was plenty of chat about the risk over Cala (not in the scout picks for that reason, mention of last season's minute management in the notes), so you had plenty of info to go off. Maybe blame Arteta for saying on Friday he was ready for three games a week and this season was different to last.
Just look at their scout picks lol
WC’d in Palmer and took Kinsky out
….if that makes anyone feel any better!
I held Bruno since the start of the season and then finally sold him for Simple Jack this gameweek.
I did Kinsky to Raya before the rise and drop last night
I bet Mbeumo hauls vs Chelsea. Brace I think. I can see it.
Man U win and Chelsea fans will have a meltdown.
Carrick, is that ya?
Rough this gw...My guy Manzambi 1 pointer.
Smooth... Mcginn and Jackson delivering along with Erling captain and Gabriel in this week. Top 500 OR now,. Looks like it's the year of the rookie as I barely even follow football lol
Welcome to the casual side!
Anyone know what's up with DCL?
Don't just hope he doesn't play tomorrow for my bench jam
They always do 🙁
Especially if LIV-BHA gets called off…
Bruised foot
Swop with Jackson?
Need 0.1 to get Nick Jackson. Sigh.
Swap MGW or Cala out?
MGW
Can’t believe King is rescuing my GW lol
Palmer captain,Calafiori,Pedro with Solanke first sub.This game....
Who's everyone thinking of capping next week? I keep trying differential caps but Haaland scores anyway, and its largely pointless. Jackson is pretty tempting, or even Palmer/Rogers.
Haaland
Haaland. Have learnt my lesson
Yea, think I will just be boring and stick with Haaland. No matter the fixture, he is pretty much the most likely player to score any week. Jackson is tempting though. Bene brunt by Palmer caps too much last season to consider him really.
Palmer was probably!
I captained Barcola this week, see how he gets on umm
Bring in 1 for the next run of 5 games:
A. Robertson - Spurs
B. Bogle - Leeds
B.
Neither look a safe CS bet regardless of opposition.
Thank you mate
Bogle
There were people out there who capped Palmer instead of MGW
Check.
Brought him in this week too.
Inspired
Wasn’t a bad shout in fairness. Just unlucky he happens to choose this game week to be rubbish.
Arsenal kept 19 CS last season. They matched their previous best.
The record is Chelsea 04/05 with 24 CS. Can't see Arsenal better that. I'm expecting around 16-20 this season. Best to just perma triple up with Raya, Gab and Konsa and accept the goals conceded when it happens.
That's where I'm going.
Is Raya worth 1.8 more than Kinsky though !
Yes
Prob not. I have Raya but would like to see Spurs do well with De Zerbi. I thought he'd be one of the first to be sacked but he'll do his own thing.
Was content so far with Raya, Konsa, Cala. If the latter is out for longer, will go with Gabi and swap Palmer for Rogers to free up funds.
Didn’t see anything from Roger’s today.
There is one angle of the replay for the second Arsenal goal and Gyokeres does not touch it. The Everton defender does. Remove his assist please.
How do you know he hasn't touched it if you're looking at one angle though? Not saying he did or didn't, just gave up understanding the logic of some VAR decisions and instructions to refs on making calls.
My apologies, I meant for the first goal!! Konsa goal. This is more FPL related, VAR wouldn’t have anything to do with this. When Pickford claws out Gabriel’s header it looks like it comes off Gyokeres before Konsa bundles it in but I thought it was the Everton defenders leg.
Palmer wont play next gw then?
Or will be suspended against liverpool?
suspended for cup match
After yesterday evenings game, 53 points with MGW C and Delap in my team feels like a big bullet dodged. Just 2 left however with only Barnes and Gross to go…
Any thoughts on Cherki, now ?
Must be a sell.
Moving to Kroupi
He'll get some hauls but a load of 0 and 1 pointers around it
Tough to recommend over nailed guys like Tavernier
Been here so many times with City.
I’ve played this game long enough to know Bruno will get good points tomorrow after so many have sold him. He just will.
It’s how it works.
At the start of the day I have no flags. I now have three lol.
With the injuries I’m going to have 4 players in City vs Brighton next Saturday. Assume most will. Gvardiol, De Cuyper, Gross, Haaland
Whom is the best 3rd striker ? Jackson ?
Very changeable.
Kostoulas
Yep, Jackson a good shout, with their forthcoming fixtures.
Ronaldinho documentary 🙂
https://youtu.be/8BJc-L19h0E?is=WtBjhIPc197Pt8S4
Safe to do JP to Jackson tonight?
Any chance JP makes United or is it a reoccurrance of same knee?
Wait.
