Sterling’s away form and low ownership can do real FPL damage

After a slow start for last week’s trio of differentials, we’re back ahead of Gameweek 2 on the lookout for the next low-owned bandwagon.

Several intriguing differential options emerged over the opening weekend. 

The likes of Tariq Lamptey (£4.5m), Daniel Podence (£5.5m) and Jack Harrison (£5.5m) all impressed, but this week we’re turning to assets at Manchester City, Newcastle United and Leicester City.

As always, to qualify, the player must have an ownership of 5% or less at the time of writing.

Raheem Sterling

  • FPL ownership: 4.6%
  • Price: £11.5m
  • GW2-6 fixtures: wol | LEI | lee | ARS | whu 

It feels strange to include a player like Raheem Sterling (£11.5m) in this section of our coverage, but the numbers don’t lie.

Despite registering an FPL score of 204 points in 2019/20, the England international comes into Gameweek 2 currently sitting in just 4.6% of squads. Let that sink in.

During Project Restart, Sterling led the way for goals (nine), which included a hat-trick at Brighton and Hove Albion, and expected goals (xG) per90 amongst midfielders, while his 10 big chances was only bettered by Michail Antonio (£6.5m). Five of his nine double-digit hauls arrived following the resumption, which ensured he outscored teammate Kevin De Bruyne (£11.5m) by 86 FPL points to 73. In comparison, his Belgian colleague is now in 30.9% of squads.

Ahead of a run of four away matches in their opening six fixtures, it’s also worth flagging Man City’s, and specifically Sterling’s form on the road last season. The Citizens scored 45 goals, which is six more than second placed Chelsea, and 12 more than Liverpool in third. Sterling also thrived on his travels – 70% of his league goals arrived during away games, while his 26 big chances in such matches was comfortably more than any other player. 

Man City’s season begins at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Monday, as they attempt to reclaim the Premier League title, before games against Leicester and Leeds United. Despite some tricky looking match-ups during that run, Sterling’s attacking output is up there with the best, and early investors could be rewarded with some huge differential hauls.

Ryan Fraser

Sterling's away form and low ownership can do real FPL damage
  • FPL ownership: 1.0%
  • Price: £6.0m
  • GW2-6 fixtures: BHA | tot | BUR | MUN | wol 

Ryan Fraser (£6.0m) didn’t enjoy the best of seasons on the South Coast last year. An underwhelming campaign saw him finish the season with a solitary goal, but I think it’s worth trying to understand why he struggled, while also casting our minds back to the season before last when Fraser was one of the most creative players in the league.

Last season’s issues aren’t easy to sum up. Back in January, he admitted “I didn’t play for the team” during the early part of the season, no doubt distracted by transfer speculation linking him with a move away. He also failed to play any part in Project Restart having declined a short-term contract extension.

Despite this, his expected assists (xA) per90 was still comfortably above that of any Bournemouth team-mate.

Now settled into a new, more positive environment, Newcastle United manager Steve Bruce will be hoping he can get return to the levels set in 2018/19, when he scored seven goals and provided 14 assists.

Encouragingly, and despite not playing much since March, Fraser made an instant impact on his debut on Wednesday night, when he scored the winning goal against Blackburn Rovers that helped send his team through to the next round of the Carabao Cup. 58 minutes were banked, and it’s now a question of when he’ll make his Premier League debut. This week might come too soon, so this is a move which does carry some risk, but he’s certainly in contention.

On Sunday, the Magpies entertain Brighton, full of confidence having beaten West Ham United in their opener. Their setup looked more balanced, we saw improvements at both ends, while in Callum Wilson (£6.5m) they finally have a fit forward who is capable of running in behind.

Fraser is an exciting footballer, who will be a genuine threat for Newcastle once up to speed, and could be a nice pick-up for those on the lookout for a midfield differential.

Timothy Castagne

FPL ownership: 4.0%

Price: £5.5m

GW2-6 fixtures: BUR | mci | WHU | AVL | ars 

Timothy Castagne (£5.5m) showed some serious promise in his side’s 3-0 win at West Bromwich Albion in Gameweek 1.

The versatile full-back headed in Leicester City’s opener in a man of the match performance which saw him supply of all of the Foxes’ width down their right-side, and combine well with Spanish forward Ayoze Pérez (£6.5m).

Given they were without first-teamers Jonny Evans (£5.5m) and Ricardo Pereira (£6.0m), plus the recently departed Ben Chilwell (£5.5m), the Foxes’ defensive performance at the Hawthorns should be applauded, as they restricted West Brom to just three shots in the box, and an expected goal (xG) tally of 0.42.

Interestingly for FPL managers, Castagne has since suggested his full-back on the opposite flank, James Justin (£4.5m), was told not to advance so often to ensure there was enough defensive cover to allow him to join the attack at every opportunity. If that specific instruction from Brendan Rodgers were to continue, it would certainly make the Belgian a more enticing prospect, despite his £5.5m price tag.

Leicester’s fixtures between now and Gameweek 5 offers promise, with three home games against Burnley, West Ham and Aston Villa in the next four, while they also embark on a nice run from Gameweek 10 – 13.

Regardless of which side he’s deployed on, Castagne will be a threat whenever he goes forward, and owned by just 4.0% of squads, could help propel his owners up the FPL ranks.

    Whats the consensus then?

    Can KDB rise before Monday or not?

    Will Bruno rise tomorrow night as he plays tomorrow?

    1. Fer Fuch's Ake
      • 10 Years

      Either way I will hold on to my transfers until after GW2

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      No one can tell as not 100% if they are actually price protected or just a lot of wc’s

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      They can rise once gw2 starts

    4. circusmonkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      I reckon they might hold off until City have played. Seems fair.

      1. SackWenger
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        I think the whole thing is ridiculous if any tampering/prevention of price rises is taking place.

  2. Fer Fuch's Ake
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Any updates on Brewster? Surely worth the 4.5 punt if a starter at She U?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I bought from the off anticipating a move , where ever he goes he should be starting

      1. Fer Fuch's Ake
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        He'll be my Mitro replacement if he blanks again, the extra 1.5 will go along way to improve rest of squad

    2. Philosopher's Stones
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Sheffield have 5 forwards, so huge rotation risk. And the team is relatively defensive in it's setup. I'd stay clear of Brewster, atleast for a while, if I were you. See how regularly he plays next few weeks and go from there.

      1. Fer Fuch's Ake
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers, he'd be mostly bench fodder but would want some assured minutes wherever he goes

      2. Rasping Drive
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Yes, but their existing forwards are absolute pants. Brewster hasn’t gone there to sit in the bench.

      3. Leonard hatred

        If the 4.5 alternative is a villa fwd who is probably being sold anyway any games are a bonus!

    B grealish and Bruno

    3. xHaTr
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      A but B could soon be better depending on Grealish form

      1. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Like grealish for the next 2 especially. Think sheff Utd will struggle and then Fulham next

    A. Ings>Richarlison

    0.5 that I make from A or B can come in handy if barnes/ASM look bad this week.

    1. Society
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Ings for Richo = no way, Richo's scored 13 goals the last two seasons.
      Werner for Martial : Martial drops points from last season & you banked on Werner being a product = hold.
      Save FT : gives you 2 weeks of play to decide on.

    2. BERGKOP

      I'm VERY interested in Richarlison, but I wouldn't ship Ings for him just yet. Definitely a wait and see.

      Hold transfer.

    Can we stop with the Hamez alias? His name is James Rodriguez..

        James or J Rod will suffice

        1. Dynamic Duos

          James plays for Utd, J Rod plays for Burnley

                  I the 2013/14 season, the real JRod scored 15 goals and 3 assists in the PL. James is a wannabe JRod

                  JRod was taken in 2012 by Jay buddy.

                  He signed for Southampton then the year they were promoted to the PL.

            • 14 Years

            I'd be worried if anyone meant to refer to either of these two players as options.

    @Camarozz.. have you incidentally unticked the show replies box at the top of the comments section?

      No. Just getting frustrated (:

      Like to sit down for my lunch and do a bit research. Someone said theres a problem on mobile n tech guys are on it. No patience for this sort of thing or bad/slow drivers, barking dogs or crying babies...

  10. gunner1994

    Play Doherty or Mitrovic?

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Doh

  11. The Mighty Hippo
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    I'm really tempted to do Alli to Grealish. However it would be for a hit if I did it this week, so do you reckon I'm best to hold for now?

    1. james 101
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Prob not for a hit

    2. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Does Alli even start this gw?

  12. Pat Bonner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Rewording from earlier. What is best:

    A HRod and rashford (+0.5m)
    B Grealish and Bruno

    1. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I like Bruno so B

    Kane to Martial?

    1. user.n
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I like Kane but Martial is better option

    2. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Depends

  14. user.n

    Auba out, Sterling in?

    1. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      No

      1. user.n
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Why?

        1. Flair
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Auba's chance of hauling is miles higher than Sterling

    2. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Absolutely not. Why do you even have Aubameyang if you want to get rid of him before a home game against West Ham?

      1. user.n
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        I had a feeling he will score more goals

    3. Fer Fuch's Ake
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Not yet

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

      Have you seen the captain poll?

      1. user.n
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        No, not yet. But thank you guys, gona stick with Auba

        1. Abaddon
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Almost 55% for Auba. But that doesn’t mean Sterling can’t do better. I will give Auba this round, then selling for city asset

          1. user.n
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            Same i think

      Unlikely but I need Frank to give me hope

      1. Brosstan

        He will give hope and then drop him like last week 😉

  17. The 12th Man
    • 10 Years

    Is Wilson likely to be on Pens for Newcastle?

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Nobody knows, but Newcastle don't see Ritchie (last season's taker) as indispensible if the rumours about their offer to swap him for Wilson are true.

    2. wheato
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Or Ritchie

  18. wulfrunian
    • 7 Years

    I can't decide what to do with Ings.

    1. wheato
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Waiting a week probably wise.

      I got rid with Alli

      Hahahaha

    2. Dynamic Duos

        B, I think...

  21. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Anyway who is everyone selling to bring in Hamez or you not getting him?

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Couldn’t find this Hamez character in the FPL game? Can you elaborate please

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        No you figure it out

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          I can’t find his name anywhere. New transfer that hasn’t been added to the game yet?

          1. IRBOX ⚽
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            Please I am intrigued

      2. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Watch the games at weekend and you will hear his named called out and then you will know who he is

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Ahh I think you must mean James Rodriguez, Everton’s number 19 who is displayed in my profile pic. The search is over!

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            Exactly

          2. Ginkapo FPL
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            Dineahmik dewohs doesnt write in english

      3. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Probably means Hegazi. Selling Doherty for him personally

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Hegazi or El Ghazi?

    2. Le Bluff
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Alli.

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah good move mate

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      searched for Hamez and couldn’t find him ... is he a new Chelsea mid yet to be added to the game ? 😉

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        That's the guy haha

      2. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Cant handle anymore of them

    4. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      ah, you mean Havertz

      1. Leonard hatred
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        He meant bring in Jay Rodrigues, Reece James, Matty James and Daniel James for -12

    5. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Rather have 3 other Everton assets. 7.5 could be bargain but he could also pull out with a hammy after 10 minutes.

      1. Leonard hatred
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Lack of match fitness, or history of hamstrings?

  22. OFord
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Can’t believe this is even a thing but surely if Vinagre price is to fall it makes sense to take a hit to get out. Otherwise we’re stuck with him as can’t get into the 4.5 price point?

    1. Fer Fuch's Ake
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Ideally, 0.5 would not cause your team to collapse, but can see that it's useful in some cases. Points over Price

    2. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Yup

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Yes makes sense to take a 4p hit to save 1/1000th of your budget

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Not for a hit but as a FT

    4. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Or you can wait and tjen you can get money from elsewhere or another 4.4 deg emerges which is often happening after a while

  23. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Do we think Greenwood starts at the weekend?

    1. OFord
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Absolutely

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers

    2. Fer Fuch's Ake
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Don't think it's 100% nailed and reserved about getting him for gw2

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      No

    Hi
    Current team
    Mccarthy
    TAA Justin Doherty
    Ali Salah Aubs ASM
    Wilson Werner Adams

    Subs: Steer, Bissouma, Mitchell, KWP

    £1.00 ITB 1FT

    Do I:
    A - Swap Werner for Martial
    B - Swap Ali for J Rod
    C - Swap Aubs for KDB/Sterling
    D - Hold for another week

    1. AD105
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      B or D

    2. Salt and Vinagre
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Alli for J Rod ✅

      1. niaz1982
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Wondering whether better to roll as he may get a run out for Southampton and impress in a bid to show mourinho

        1. Salt and Vinagre
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Can see Son moving more centrally when Bale turns up to diminish Alli’s prospects

  25. AD105
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    TAA/Son to Digne/Bruno worth a -4?

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      No.

      1. Royal5
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Maybe for free in a week.

    2. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      tough one. looks good long term but could backfire

    3. niaz1982
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I think so

    4. Fer Fuch's Ake
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Too kneejerky, looks good for GW2 but wouldn't take a hit for it

  26. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    so...

    A son to greenwood ( i have martial)
    B son to mahrez
    C save transfer

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Why the despertaion of having players that has yet to play? Wait a week and see.

    2. AD105
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      C definitely

    3. Lord Flashheart

  27. BERGKOP

    Chelsea fans. Is Reece James nailed?

    1. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Azpi and chilwell says hi, so No. Maybe until the latter is coning BACK

      1. BERGKOP

  28. Bielsa Murderball

    Thoughts?
    A) Bruno fernandes, rashford, saiss
    B) Bruno fernandes, martial, saiss
    C)KDB, martial, charlie taylor

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      C. All good options though.

      1. AD105
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        A or B for me (flip a coin)

  29. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Do we have any stats from gwk1 for Hamez/Hames/James/JRod/Rodriguez/James David Rodriguez Rubio?

    1. niaz1982
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Is that the new Everton signing?

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah him haha
