Sterling scores as popularity falls among top 10k managers

Raheem Sterling‘s (£12.1m) popularity among the top 10,000 managers continues to shrink, although he punished his sellers in Gameweek 7.

Those that kept faith in the Manchester City midfielder were rewarded for their patience, not just in the form of points for their teams, but for the differential over those around them who moved him on.

After the Gameweek 6 deadline, Sterling sat in 48% of teams inside the top 10k, and was the third most popular midfield asset, behind only Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) and Kevin de Bruyne (£9.9m).

However, Saturday morning’s deadline has seen him drop to just 30% ownership in the upper echelons.

That makes him the fifth-most popular midfielder, behind Mason Mount (£6.6m) on 44.4% and Todd Cantwell (£5.0m) on 43.9%.

We knew that Sterling had been ditched by a large number of managers worldwide, but it is perhaps surprising to see his stock fall even among those in the top 10,000.

That said, it is probable that Sterling’s no-show in Gameweek 6 was responsible for shaking up the standings at that level initially as those without the midfielder were among that round’s highest-scorers.

Meanwhile, his performance at Goodison Park, in which he wasted a one-on-one chance with Jordan Pickford (£5.6m), may leave his owners in something of a quandary.

Despite that dreadful miss and a largely poor display, he still managed to get one effort over the line, spotted by goalline technology.

Not surprisingly, de Bruyne is now the most-fashionable asset in any position among the top 10k. The Belgian is currently in 85.8% of teams at this level – and celebrated his newfound popularity with two assists in the win over Everton.

Lundstram continues to be an incredibly popular FPL asset

As he continues to prove his value this season, John Lundstram (£4.4m) has risen to become the most popular defender among the top 10,000.

The Sheffield United man now sits in 64.6% of teams at this level having gone into Gameweek 7 as the top-scoring player in his classification.

This season’s most successful managers so far are generally looking for value in defence as the number of premium options being considered continues to fall.

Martin Kelly (£4.1m) and Diego Rico (£4.1m) are both in the top-five most-owned defenders among the top 10k, bringing the total of sub-£4.5m options to three.

Alexander-Arnold is now more popular than van Dijk in the top 10k but was outscored by him in Gameweek 7

Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.2m) has also been on the rise, perhaps at the expense of his colleague Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m).

The right-back was in 32.7% of top 10k teams in Gameweek 6, his centre-back colleague in 36.7% of them.

However, they have swapped over now, Alexander-Arnold now the more popular at the top level. He is in 43.1% of teams in the top 10k, while van Dijk is in just 27%.

Such a switch will have stemmed from Alexander-Arnold’s propensity for attacking returns although, in Gameweek 7, he was outscored by van Dijk, who collected bonus points at Sheffield United.

Up-front, the picture remains fairly similar to before, although it may change for Gameweek 8 given the host of blanks for the popular strikers this weekend.

Teemu Pukki (£7.2m) remains the most fashionable in this position, while Tammy Abraham (£7.5m) and Sergio Aguero (£12.2m) complete the top three – all goalless in Gameweek 7.

Captaincy largely went poorly for most managers in the top 10k

Speaking of goalless, that’s exactly what most of the captains were in the top 10k, as most FPL managers experienced a rotten start to Gameweek 7.

Salah was the most skippered option in the upper echelons with the backing of 26.5% of managers in the top 10k.

He came close to attacking returns at Bramall Lane but forced a strong save from Dean Henderson (£4.5m) when he was played through.

Aguero was just behind the Egyptian on 23% backing among the top 10k, not even start Manchester City’s trip to Everton, featuring only as a 65th-minute substitute – although claiming a late assist.

Ahead of Chelsea’s hosting of Brighton, Abraham was backed as the differential option by 16.2% of the top 10k.

That selection of managers will have been most frustrated to see the forward not take Chelsea’s second-half penalty, dispatched by Jorginho (£5.0m).

Finally, we can see once again that each week brings more weight to the findings among the top 10,000 managers.

In the early stages of the campaign, there was a high proportion of those who had used chips extensively in the first few Gameweeks.

However, we are now seeing that nearly 40% of the managers at this level are yet to use a single chip yet this season.

Meanwhile, 39.9% of them have already used one chip and we can see from the detailed breakdown that the Wildcard is now up to 44.7% usage in the top 10,000 managers.

    Save FT here?

    Pope
    TAA - Otamendi - Tomori
    Salah - KDB - Mount - Cantwell
    Aguero(c) - Abraham - Pukki

    Button - Lundstram - Soyuncu - Choudhury

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years

      Yep

    2. _Gunner
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Sure

      Team looks good and having 2FTs over the break is good

    3. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Yea

    4. KGFC
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I'd play Lunds over Cantwell

      1. maff
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Yep

      2. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Cantwell at home could break your heart

  2. JurgenRodgers
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Early days, but bit of a benching headache this Gw?

    King ars

    Cantwell AVL

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Cantwell

    2. NATSTER
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Almost the same question as it is between C.Wilson and Cantwell for me.

      1. JurgenRodgers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Swaying towards playing King, Arsenal have 2 away games before Bournemouth

        1. NATSTER
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Yes, me too. Swaying to Wilson for the same reason plus ARS defence.

  3. _Gunner
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Who to bench next GW?

    A- Cantwell
    B- McGinn

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Got Pukki?
      A

      1. _Gunner
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah Go Pukki

    2. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      B

      1. _Gunner
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Although I’ve got Pukki already?

        1. Jusagoras
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          The fact that you own Pukki has nothing to do with how many points they're going to get! Anyway, I think McGinn is more likely to get points than Cantwell.

  4. WVA
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Mane for more dangerous than Salah again?

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Yes. Although Liverpool are at home again next week.

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        That makes Mane even more essential, have you seen his home record?

    2. el polako
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Should havehad a brace but once again let down by poor finiahing.
      Much of the muchness imo, still own Salah becasue of penalties and odd corners.

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers for the information.
        1m saving could go long way actually 😮
        Vardy would need some ££

        1. el polako
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          There a budget friendly options that are returning points in every formation this year - finding 1m shouldnt be an issue.

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Yes
            You're right mate

      2. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Agree, final touches not so clinical with one hit the post

  5. KGFC
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Bottomed on last page so RP.

    Guys, have 2FTs and 0.1 ITB. Thinking of these moves... yay or nay?

    1. Auba + Son -> Kun + Yarmo + 2.6itb

    I know many are trying to get in Auba but pls read my reasons before killing me:

    1. Will be capping Kun for next 4 weeks and I think he is a MUST during City's home games
    2. Arsenal mid is weak which means Auba doesn't get the service to explode. On top of that he likes to gift away his penalties to Pepe!
    3. For Son, I think Yarmo can match him over his next 3/4 home fixtures. Spurs seem very disjointed and to top it off, Poch hooks off Son early. Plus, I'll take a sweet 0.1 profit on Son.

    Rest of the team, if it helps:

    Pope
    TAA Ota Ward Lunds Rico
    Mane KDB Son Mount Hayden
    Auba Pukki Tammy

    1. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      You know the risks with Kun. Yesterday showed this, although he’ll have a nice rest over the IB.

      1. KGFC
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah that's a risk but his ceiling is quite high and I don't mind risking that.

    2. MASTER ROSHI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Auba gave penalty to Pepe just so he can get his first goal, wont happen again

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Understood the rationale, can you do it one by one rather than burned 2 FT at once in case?

  6. My neck my back my Saed Kol…
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Having my worst start ever. Thoughts on this team? In need of a WC?

    Pope Button

    Robinson Otamendi Coleman Montoya Lund

    Salah Sterling Ceballos Cantwell Dendoncker

    Auba Pukki Abraham

    1. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      It’s okayish

      I’d make 4 changes to that team

      1. My neck my back my Saed Kol…
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Anything in particular?

        1. Concrete
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Coleman, Montoya, Ceballos, Dendoncker I’d remove

          I’d be looking at KdB, Mount, cheaper defenders

          Some fixtures swings after the IB might be worth looking at wc then?

          1. Stokelona
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Good suggestions but you won’t afford KDB and Mount getting rid of that lot!

            1. My neck my back my Saed Kol…
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Yeah, in reality one of sterling or auba has to go and I’m listened to ditch either

          2. My neck my back my Saed Kol…
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Yeah international break wildcard is a big temptation right now. Wanna jump on the arsenal and Leicester fixtures. Kieran Tierney will be a big one to get

    2. _Gunner
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Need KDB in

      By Robinson you mean Robertson?

      How much itb and how many FTs?

      1. My neck my back my Saed Kol…
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah no KDB is absolutely murdering me but I’m trying not to loose Auba. Got 0.5 ITB and 1 FT. Oops yeah meant Robertson. What you think?

        1. _Gunner
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Maybe Sterling + Montoya > KDB + Otamendi

          1. My neck my back my Saed Kol…
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Already got Otamendi but sterling to KDB is a real consideration

    3. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Ceballos and Montoya to Mount and whoever else you can afford. Then it is fine:

      Pope
      Coleman - Otamendi - Lundstram
      Salah - Sterling - Mount - Cantwell
      Aubameyang - Abraham - Pukki

      Button - Dendoncker - Robinson - ?????

  7. Concrete
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Getting rid of Salah and having no Liverpool attack for a few games after the IB too risky?

    Downgrade to Pépé and get Vardy?

    1. KGFC
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I'd definitely keep one of Salah or Mane. Pepe is a trap. Vardy one to consider.

      1. Concrete
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers

    2. My neck my back my Saed Kol…
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Pepe has the potential to be so so good but he hasn’t reached that yet. He’ll explode within the next 5 games

      1. Concrete
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        His KPIs are excellent. With the fixtures I think he’ll score very well over the next 6

    3. Mr. Grv

      I dont have any pool attackers , i decided i world rather have triple city.

  8. Murder On Zidanesfloor

    Aurier, Cantwell > Tomori, McGinn (-4)? Exact cash

    1. KGFC
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Just Aurier -> Tomori

    2. Amey

      Cantwell can wait for another week mate.
      Home form good

    3. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      McGinn would rise though.

      I can also get Matip in for Aurier for free, do you think that's a better move?

    Looking to save FT. Team looking good right ?? (Means another Red arrow 😀 )
    Really want to sell Mo & get Auba/Someone else but thinking about getting 2 FT in gw 9 and doing a mini WC according to the situation. Vardy is tempting too from gw 9 onwards so ...

    Thank you

    1. KGFC

      Yep, save.

        4 years, 6 months ago

        Same here
        Maybe will take that decision next gw itself.
        Do you think Maddison is a efficient alternative to Vardy ??
        Strikers spots are very congested this season

        Do you think that Danny Ings is special ?
        Looks like he either knows or does something cuz keeper keep gifting him goal - first Adrian and now Lloris.

        1. NATSTER
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          And those are two goals that he scored in the league so far.

          It's probably his awareness and running to pressure GK.

        2. Stokelona
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          He sort of pretended not to be interested and then absolutely legged it at him and Lloris panicked.

          Villa better defensively then Arsenal (imo)

            Same feeling. Not sure if the stats will back up this, but ARS defence don't give any confidence.

          I think Wilson, just like Vardy, never belongs on a Start or not post.

        I wonder what is Aurier's IQ ? And whether he's got any underlying mental issues - maybe an anger management course would do him good ?

        1. el polako
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          He could go there with Deeney tbh.

          A doesn't make sense... simply do James -> McGinn. I wouldn't lose Tammy.

          I’d rather have James than McGinn for what it’s worth.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Was planning on McGinn to Mount but feels wrong given McGinn's perfirmance and fixtures. Lack of Chelsea is worrying though... Alternative is to lose Pukki for Abraham but not quite ready to leave that party... Chelsea cover essential?

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Seem to be picking up even more form Chelsea and scoring goals. 16 shots on goal in the first half shows their intent.

          Hudson-Odoi back too

          I think you need Chelsea attack

        What a strange GW.

        42 all out -4.

        Salah my captain blanking but seeing other big hitters not really producing fantastic scores other than KDB sort of put my mind at ease.

        What a disater from Aurier.

        Now 0-0 draws in the fixtures today would be a blessing lol.

            You are really hoping a lot with Lee- Newcastle 0-0 draw. I dont any of the players but could easily see atleast 3-4 goals in the game.

            Sterling (c) worked out pretty well here. Not only did he "make it back into the team", he also scored.

            Ha Ha

            1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Usually I'm not one to call people out but thought you called for it after Salah nut hugging and Sterling bashing all week.

        2. Mr. Grv
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          Really weird GW , captained kun yet got points at the end .
          Almost all of my team returned points except Heaton and Lundstram who could have easily returned too.
          None of them returned big tho ,57 points feels above average tho.

        3. Pinturicchio10
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Decided to bite the bullet and make early transfers, shifting cash from defence to release weak picks up front. -4.

            Pereira -> Tomori (pains as I've just bought and fancy he'll do very well)
            Barnes -> Pukki (duh)

            Pope
            Tomori / TAA / Otamendi / Lundstram
            Salah v / Sterling c / Son
            Pukki / Wilson / Abraham

            Button / Hayden / Dendoncker / Rico

            Done and dusted. If City fail to keep out Wolves I'll shift more from defence through Otamendi and upgrade stinker mid. Outski. Busy week ahead good luck with whatever players you have left to go this gw. Ciao.

              • 4 Years

              Looks like Wolves are on the up again. Would not bet on them not scoring vs City.

                Well I suppose technically you are right but narrowly winning your first game of the season at home to the bottom club is hardly a sign of great things to come

            • 7 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            Really dont know what to do in terms of who to bring in for next GW. Plan was to get Auba in over Kane but then he scored yesterday

            Lloris (Button)

            TAA / Ota / Lundstram / Tomoro (Montoya)

            Sterling / Mane / Mount (Cantwell / Dendon)

            Kane / Tammy / Pukki

            Wondering whether to save for 2 FTs or get someone like KDB in asap who is a must

            1. The Mantis
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member

              The lack of kdb is really hurting you , at this point i would just bring him in.

              1. The Mantis
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 6 months ago

                Tell me about it! Maybe I'll bring him in for Mane due to fixtures

                1. Mr. Grv
                  • 9 Years
                  4 years, 6 months ago

                  Mane might get 2 next week , if you have pool i would just keep them . You have a lot invested in your forwards any of the 3 failing is going to hurt you . I would look at downgradiing lloris , ota and upgrading mount to kdb/son funds from kane . Risky tho

              Kane’s ticking along nicely but is he doing enough for 11mil?

              I’d prob keep for the next 2

            What does folks here think about Yarmolenko? I haven’t seen him play but thinking of getting him in for next 4 fixtures as 5th mid in 3-5-2. Other alternative is McGinn but Westham has better fixtures.

            Having a very underwhelming season so far. Sitting around 800k which is terrible for me, but quite like my team generally - feel like I'm off the pace because of captain fails & benched points more than bad squad selection. Any obvious changes you would make here?
