How good are Pukki’s upcoming fixtures after hat-trick heroics?

Teemu Pukki (£6.8m) has already taken FPL by storm, scoring four goals in his first two Premier League matches.

Fantasy managers are flocking to sign the Norwich forward, with a third price rise of the season occurring overnight.

The hat-trick scored against Newcastle in Gameweek 2 sent the demand for Pukki into overdrive, but his new owners were clearly also impressed with his ability to score even at Anfield in Gameweek 1.

However, there are still some who are a little concerned about Norwich’s upcoming fixtures.

So we’ve analysed the numbers recorded so far this season to test whether or not Pukki is a sensible signing for Gameweek 3.

As this article uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area, only those who have signed up for the 2019/20 season can access it in full.

Have Pukki’s underlying statistics been good?

    Hope Bournemouth plays with more ambition this time

    The game last season was hard to watch

      Sterling kdb owner?

    2. LangerznMash
      • 7 Years

      City high line vs Wilson's pace on the counter...
      Can see him getting in behind a few times and bagging a consolation goal.

      I hope they do as City will rip them apart then.

      Hope City punish them with KdB and Raz running riot.

      1. MgM

        Raz?

      Punish them for what?

      1. Dele
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Being a mediocre PL team.

          It's pretty impressive for their size tbf.

    6. The Cherry Picker
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Do yourself a favour Dele and have a look into their history. I don’t know who you support but I’m pretty ruddy proud of being a ‘mediocre’ premier league team considering how far we have come.

      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      B for the long run. If Kane didn't have Newcastle I doubt A would even be an option

      1. Goonsquad245
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Absolutely this, although I'd try to get united defence cover regardless.

  3. @FPLDIARYFPL
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    I would say everyones priorities should be these 4 players and probably in this order:-

    1 KDB
    2 Martial
    3. Pukki
    4. Mount

    Who is on your priority list??

    1. jtreble
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Same except not Mount.

    2. Top 210 Club
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Not fussed about Martial or Mount myself. Mane is up there and thinking about Son.

    3. @FPLDIARYFPL
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I guess Kane should be 3.5!

    4. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      1. Sterling
      2. Salah/Mane
      3. Kane
      4. KDB

      Haven't got KDB but it is difficult to have all 4 and retain team balance.

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Agree with this. Only Salah before Mane just because of ownership and pens

    5. gergin
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      1. Kane
      2.Son
      3. Eriksen
      4. KDB

    6. Eytexi
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      1) Sterling
      2) Martial
      3) Salah
      4) KDB

    7. n14mul
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Had KDB in since the start and I think he could be the man this season.

    8. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Well certainly not mount. He's a rotation risk with Barkley. Lamps has already said he won't play every week.
      My top four priorities would be
      Sterling
      KDB
      Lane
      Martial

    9. LangerznMash
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      From the players I don't currently own.
      1) Kane
      2) Vardy
      3) Son
      4) Trossard

  4. LangerznMash
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Got to say I'm happy the inpatient players and ditched Vardy. £0.1m cheaper for me to buy, he will start firing them in now!

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Albrighton looked great when he came on against Chelsea. Should come in for Perez and offer a bit more width and help improve Vardy.

    2. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Have kept Vardy since gw1.

    3. Triple P
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Vardy somehow always disappionts me FPL wise. I'm avoiding this season

    4. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      But you obviously don't have him yet, so I assume you didn't fancy his chances early doors.

      Besides which, I deliberately laid off Leicester players as I felt their fixtures were tough until GW9, when they then start to go green.

      I figured preseason that by the time you'd actually want to consider owning Vardy his price would have dropped for exactly the reasons you're seeing now.

    5. Bird Raymond

      Happy to help!

    Morning all, GTG on a -4?

      Yes g2g

  6. JariL
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    I have Siggy and believe he will do well in the upcoming fixtures. Just hard to keep him knowing he will drop in price tonight...

    Anyone else feeling the same?

    1. Triple P
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Fixtures look great, should come good. Im a not owner, but will be watching him. Difficult to fit him in my team though, with Sterling, Salah, KdB and Martial who I all want to keep and rate higher than Siggy atm

    2. kidzac
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Siggy has always drop in price in most seasons. Better to hang on to the reason you picked him in the first place.

    3. Kiwi Don
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Siggy is a slow accumulater of points so you have to have patience otherwise you miss his big hauls.

    4. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Form over fixtures.

      Martial cheaper, rising and on fire in an attacking United team who should still finish above Everton.

      The lesson I've learnt from the previous mistakes I've made is to ship players who lose value straight away at the start of the season and get on one's who are rising.

      You may need a points hit to do it now, but the way I see it is that the longer you leave it the more hits its going to cost you when you finally decide to sort it out.

      1. Triple P
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I agree, so many in form midfielders atm. Though a player like Siggy or Erikssen needs patience. They will get points in the end, but rarely with big hauls. These players are seasonkeepers you don't only get for form or fixtures imo

    5. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Nope. For me he's ovrepriced. Better options out there who are even cheaper and Martial is one of them. Mid playing as striker for a top 6 club. Couldn't ask for better.

  7. Teem Puki

    I'm on a wc.

    Lorris
    Dunk, Zouma, Lundstram
    Mane, KDB,Martial, Sterling
    Kane (C) ,Pukki, Andone.

    SUB (Button, Douglas
    -Luiz, Kelly, Reid)

    What do you guys think. I dont expect much from my defence though

    1. Top 210 Club
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Lloris to Adrian and Zouma to Maguire/Emerson.
      Zouma days are numbered with Rudiger back

    2. dbeck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      one premium too many, ditch one of kane or KDB imo

    3. kidzac
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I don't expect much from your defence too. Doubt you will feel happy seeing mostly 1s and 2s from them, bound to make you feel itchy fingers to take hits to fix them.

      Very nice mate. Some great differentials in there.

      Thoughts on my lot below?

    2. Triple P
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Surely you want to play VVD instead of Dendoncker? Furthermore looks good

      1. Coolboy9191
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I thought of too mate.. But looking at liv defence this season arsenal are surely gonna score.. Dendo may give attacking returns.

        1. Triple P
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          So might VVD 😉 he's dangerous with every corner. Who's going to win a battle with him in the air out of the Arsenal defence?

          1. kidzac
            • 12 Years

            2 x David Luiz

  9. George James

    GTG?

    Heaton
    KWP / AWB / Digne / Robertson
    Salah / KDB / Pérez / Martial
    Kane (C) / Jota

    Button / Lundstram / Dendonker / Greenwood

    1. Coolboy9191
      • 4 Years

      Team looks solid mate.. I will personally start Lundstram ahead of Robertson or perez.. Possible for 6pts..

    3. Triple P

      Any FT left?

    4. Dele

      No Sterling or Laporte... hmmm

        Got a similar team but with Kane, De Bruyne, Martial and Pope instead of Vardy, Sterling, Mount and Ryan.

                Depends what you think about Cancelo

                  • 8 Years

                  I think he'll play CL and other midweek games.
                  I think that he could be used on the left side.
                  Walker has been an integral part of City's def past 2 years playing for 2700+ mins both seasons.

                  1. MTPockets
                      4 years, 8 months ago

                      Yeah I've read that about playing on the left
                      But honestly no idea. Seems a risk but agree Walker's done nothing to get dropped
                      Pep doesn't seem to work along those lines though

                      1. Karan14
                        • 8 Years

                        Yeah trying to guess what Pep does with his starting 11 never works.

                        Weighing up VVD & Laporte vs TAA & Walker/Zinch

                            I'd go with VVD & Laporte. Way less stress and both good picks

                    Difficult to say, but he has been playing very well. Would be harsh if he is dropped but you know Pep.

                      I kind of prefer him over Zinchenko.

                        Think AWB has a potential role here as placeholder for Cancelo. That was part of my thinking in getting him in last week. Great fixture this week of course.

                        Have Robbo Digne AWB - who could all go for one of

                        Walker
                        Cancelo
                        Laporte

                        That’s in order of likelihood

                        I would go Laporte VVD for peace of mind.

                        Sounds great. Just thought one might want clean sheets as well

                    A. Mane & Boly
                    B. Salah & 4.5 / 4.6 / 4.7

                    1. MTPockets
                        4 years, 8 months ago

                        B, although would probably pick Mane if wildcarding - but not to enable Boly

                        1. thomashl

                          Hmm. You don't have any fomo over Salah, though?

                          Didn't watch their last game, but from the highlights there sure was a lot of Mane great plays

                              I'd probably have some fear, but hope to more efficiently use the saving elsewhere

                        If Digne is deemed unfit to play this week's game, makes sense to downgrade him on a WC right?

                          Yes.
                          But might be worth keeping if he is only out for a week.

                        Who scores more next match.
                        A) Firmino - home against Arsenal
                        B) Vardy - home against Newcastle

                            Vardy's not playing Newcastle

                            Not sure whether to get Son, Firmino or Rashford on wildcard.

                            A) Rashford Wan-Bissaka Cantwell
                            B) Firmino 4.5m def Cantwell
                            C Son 4.5m def Greenwood

                            Which one?

                            4.5m defenders I'm considering are Dunk Aarons El Mohamady, any better than that? Other defenders are Digne & Lundstram.

                                A right now

                                  Yeah that was my initial thoughts, although Firmino's record vs Arsenal and the temptation of jumping on Son early got me thinking. The 'A' option also is man utd's overload but that could build some decent team value if they do well.

                                      Agree that C's more appealing if patient, and assuming Cantwell really is just for the bench

                                thinking fraser, king and perez > martial, jota and mount -4, sounds good ?

                                  Could work. I think Jota and martial are great picks. Mount if nailed as well. I would go for it
