What impact will Semedo have on Wolves FPL assets this season?

Nelson Semedo‘s (£5.5m) arrival in the Premier League is likely to have an impact on several different areas of Wolves’ squad this season.

The highly-regarded right-back joins the Molineux side from Barcelona in the wake of Matt Doherty‘s (£6.0m) departure to Spurs.

As a result, Fantasy Premier League managers are likely to have some questions about his role at Wolves. Will Semedo become a viable asset on his own? Can he improve the club’s attacking threat? Will his arrival impinge on the Fantasy credentials of any other options? We have taken a closer look.

The History and Statistics

The fact that Semedo arrives at Molineux as something of a coup-signing tells you much of what you need to know about his pedigree.

In three years at Barcelona, the 26-year-old has won four major trophies, including two La Liga titles, one Copa del Rey and another Supercopa de España.

“It isn’t often that we have the opportunity to sign a world-class player from a world-class club. Nelson’s signing shows we will never stop progressing and we are still hungry and humble in our heart.” – Jeff Shi

Semedo has hardly been a bit-part player either, making 82 league appearances for the Catalan giants since the start of 2017/18.

2019/20 was when the Portuguese international was most useful to Barcelona, appearing 42 times in all competitions and providing six assists.

As well as regularly turning out for Barcelona in La Liga, Semedo has plenty of Champions League experience too. Over the last three seasons, he made a minimum of seven appearances in that competition, playing ten times in 2018/19 when Barcelona made it to the semi-finals.

Semedo’s rise to Barcelona’s first-team occurred quickly. He spent the 2011/12 season in Portugal’s Terceira Divisão for Sintrense, joining Benfica in 2013/14.

After a couple of seasons in their B-side, he broke into the first team in 2015/16, making 12 Primeira Liga appearances, scoring once.

Then a full campaign as the first-choice right-back for Benfica in 2016/17 saw Semedo turn out 31 times in the league, adding a goal and six assists.

He also made eight Champions League appearances for the Portuguese side that year, finding the net once too – all enough to capture Barcelona’s attention.

Across his time with those two major European clubs, Semedo has displayed powerful pace, allowing him to cover plenty of ground either as a traditional full-back or a flying wing-back.

Combined with excellent dribbling skills, Semedo is known for his ability to move possession up the field with his driving runs, but is also capable of progressing it through the use of his passing.

During his time at Barcelona, Semedo has shown an eye for a killer pass, although these are usually of the shorter kind. In contrast to a Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.5m), Semedo is less likely to be firing in sweeping crosses than getting involved in more intricate pieces of passing play. 

Meanwhile, experience at the highest level in Spain and Europe has instilled positive mental attributes in the player too. 

He has now made 13 international appearances for Portugal, so has already had the chance to train and play competitively with a large handful of his new Wolves colleagues.

But what does all this mean for Semedo in comparison with the rest of his new defensive colleagues? We need to look at some comparisons to find out.

Vinagre129.2129.2N/A161.5

The Prospects

The first thing that the comparisons tell us is that Semedo will probably have to work very hard to provide the same level of attacking threat Doherty offered during his time at Wolves.

The Spurs wing-back was involved in 12 of Wolves’ league goals last season, while Semedo scored just once and put up two assists in one of the continent’s biggest and best teams.

That output appears to be consistent with the player’s underlying statistics too. In 2019/20, Doherty had the best figures for minutes per shot (81.1), minutes per shot in the box (86.1) and minutes per shot on target (189.3).

When it came to the frequency of shots, Romain Saïss (£5.1m), Ruben Vinagre (£4.4m), Jonny (£5.5m), Marçal (£5.0m) and Willy Boly (£5.5m) all performed better than Semedo last season.

While neither one of Marçal or Conor Coady (£5.0m) managed a single shot in the box in 2019/20, Vinagre, Saïss, Jonny and Boly all registered efforts there more frequently than Wolves’ new right-back – and each of them, other than Vinagre, more regularly saw their shots land on target.

Meanwhile, Semedo’s rate of creativity was not particularly strong compared to his new team-mates.

Marçal played a key pass every 69.3 minutes last season, while Vinagre and Jonny both did better than Semedo in this department. And for anyone wondering if the new signing can be the new Doherty, the latter also had a better figure for minutes per key pass (135.2) than his replacement (174.8).

Naturally, these figures are somewhat underwhelming, especially for someone who turned out for such a high-end club in a division that arguably has a lower overall quality of opponents.

However, there may be mitigating circumstances in terms of formations played and team-mates. The full-backs in Wolves’ 3-5-2 or 3-4-3 systems usually get to spend more time around the final third than those in a 4-2-3-1, the formation preferred at Barcelona.

And, paying no disrespect to Wolves, it was probably harder to be heavily involved in key areas when sharing the pitch with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez than it might be in a more advanced roles with less big-name players.

But those factors, in and of themselves, could play a part in Semedo’s integration into the Wolves team. The player should fit nicely into the all-action role quickly given his pace, but it could still be something of a waiting game for anyone interested in his Fantasy signature. After all, it is hard to know exactly how Nuno will use Semedo this season. For example, for all the intrigue surrounding Marçal’s arrival, he played an exceptionally deep role in the 2-0 win at Sheffield United.

Saïss delivers on Project Restart promise as Jiménez returns to his FPL best

Considering centre-back Saïss offered an encouraging amount of threat in the final third and penalty box last season, and at the start of this, for a cheaper price, Semedo will have to improve his underlying numbers and make a seriously explosive start to life at Wolves to pull Fantasy interest away from the Moroccan international.

Furthermore, Nuno’s next press conference carries serious Fantasy significance. If Marçal is ruled out for a particularly long-term period, then Vinagre becomes an exceptionally promising value option on the opposite flank to Semedo.

As you can see from the charts above, Vinagre outperformed his compatriot in each of the four key areas considered other than minutes per shot on target last season.

However, Semedo’s Fantasy impact is not limited to Wolves’ defensive assets. His arrival is expected to heat-up competition for places further up the pitch.

Adama Traoré (£6.5m) has been filling in for Doherty in the initial Premier League matches of the season, used in the right wing-back role of a 3-4-3 formation.

That has allowed Daniel Podence (£5.6m) and Pedro Neto (£5.5m) mostly unrivalled access to starting berths either side of Raúl Jiménez (£8.5m) in the front-three, while Vitinha (£5.0m) has, for the most part, contributed as an impact substitute.

The addition of Semedo to the Wolves squad should relieve Traoré of his wing-back duties very soon and shift him back into competition with Podence, Neto and Vitinha further up the field.

That might be of some slight concern to the 260,000+ managers who signed Podence ahead of the Gameweek 3 deadline. Wolves’ number 10 has probably done enough to start the trip to West Ham on merit, but Neto has been no slouch so far this season.

While Podence still looks like a good option in the short-term, some examination of how Traoré compares to him, Neto and Vitinha in Nuno’s mind may be needed to find out of the former Olympiacos man can retain his Fantasy appeal over a longer period.

    This is what it comes down to...

    Martinez, 4.0

    James, Saiss, Keane, Justin, Mitchell

    Salah, KDB, Son, _____, Zaha

    _____, DCL, Brewster

    Planning on playing 352 with rotating defenders. Occasionally 442.

    A) Werner and James Rodriguez
    B) Jimenez and Havertz
    C) Podence and Jimenez, then get TAA
    D) Jimenez and James Rodriguez, then decide my Chelsea guy next week

    1. Kuzser
      • 6 Years

      It’s B or C from me. Not keen on double Wolves attack. You can also do A with Foden instead of Hames

      1. Sam (Team Sam)
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Think I'd like to see a bit more from Foden in terms of guaranteed minutes. He's an easy future purchase from Zaha or Havertz/Rodriguez

    2. Bedknobs and Boomsticks
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      It's a bit mad, but would be tempted by B with Havertz on a 1 week trial

      1. Sam (Team Sam)
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        Ooooo I like

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Werner over Kane and either spend bit more in defence- perhaps James over Taylor or get Rodriguez into midfield

    3. Superflymonk
      • 9 Years

      How can you not have yourself in a wildcard draft!

  4. kinghenry14
    • 8 Years

    Who do you think is the better option? Havertz or Werner?

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

      wern

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

      Timo, should get good points in the next 2-3 weeks and might be on pens now

    3. Sam (Team Sam)
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I'm wondering the same. I prefer Havertz as a player. Not sure who I like most for FPL though

  5. Kuzser
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Which combo on a WC guys?
    1) Son Zaha Podence (Brewster)
    2) (Alzate) Foden Barnes - Jiménez
    3) Son Podence (Alzate) - Wood
    4) Podence Foden (Alzate) - Jesus

    Martinez 4.0

    Is the rule to avoid Leicester players when Ndidi is out?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I think they are less fluent without them but am still tempted by Barnes next GW

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

        Thanks I will avoid the defenders. yes he could be good and Vardy could too.

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Defenders yes, don't see how attack will be affected

      1. fc_skrald

        Thanks.

      Season 19/20:
      Leicester when Ndidi started (or played more than 45 min)
      Goals scored per match - 1.98
      Goals conceded per match - 1.03
      Leicester when Ndidi didn't start
      0.86 - 1.29

    What do you think about this team?

    Guaita Steer
    Trent Saiss Justin Mitchell Dunne
    Salah Kdb Son Zaha Reed
    Mitrovic Jimenez Dcl

    Thinking about doing guaita+saiss to semedo+ ryan or martinez?

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

      Would go Sterling over Salah

    2. fc_skrald
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I thinks it is a good team. I would like Guaita myself in my wildcard team but I dont have the money - might prioritize him above Saiss...

    3. Ganso
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Justin, Mitchell & Dunne are all potential risks in a few weeks. Son -> James Rod/Foden/Podence and upgrade the defence.

    A few of my thoughts on this upcoming week, for what it's worth!

    - The temptation for sell Werner is real. However, I have the feeling lots will have sellers remorse come the end of GW3. GW3 is really where Chelsea's season starts in terms of FPL points imo - Werner owners could never have expected in the first two weeks imo. I do think that if he blanks vs West Brom or if Chelsea look sluggish, then the move to Jimenez or Jesus will be tough to ignore.

    - I'm interested to see how Southampton look this week. People say Hasenhutel is a stubborn manager and this may be true - but after the infamous loss to Leicester last season, he made wholesale changes and started from scratch. While I don't expect him to do the same here, I would be surprised if Southampton don't decide to step back their high line a little. Even if they don't, Burnley are probably still one of the best opponents they could face as they don't have huge pace in behind. While long term I think Sou aren't going to be a defense worth investing in, I do think they can manage a CS this GW.

    - KdB is permacap material. I think if he avoids injury, he has the real possibility of approaching a 275+pts season. With pens and a more advanced role, KdB can add more goals to his probable 15-20 assists and he is truly fixture proof.

      Similar to most. I can't see teams playing like Southampton did against Spurs so I'm unsure on Son. As below I want about 8 strikers so I'm thinking a 3-4-3 too. Still, it should do well!

    I think I've narrowed it down to eight strikers I want on my WC - strange because prior to GW1 I wanted to play 3-7-0! Which three would you pick???

    1. Jesus
    2. Jimenez

    1. xHaTr

      Son is overrated.

      Jimenez

  13. Up the tics
    • 8 Years

    Sterling + KDB overkill on a wildcard? Would leave me without a UTD, Spurs or Chelsea mid/forward but that can easily be sorted with a FT and not much shuffling about

        Yeah man, I dunno, I don't hugely fancy them and like the ones I've got.
        Yours, all look like good shouts. Particularly like Barnes. Either him or greenwood in mine. Foden I'd be a little concerned about his playing time but even if he doesn't start he's very capable off the bench for sure.

    2. Champions League Varane

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years

        Surely will get burned by one of Son/Werner, but I am okay with taking that risk. Long-term, I'll take it on the chin.

    I think Traore might hit a huge run soon.

        A lot of people (me included) have 3 Wolves inc. Podence, so it's hard to make in one move. That said, Podence reminds me quite a lot of Hazard so I'm excited to have him first.

    Martinez - Steer
    TAA - Saiss - Taylor - Lamptey - Mitchell
    Salah - KdB - Son - Foden - Anguissa
    Werner - DCL - Watkins

    Could do Foden to a 5.5 and upgrade Taylor to a 5.0 and Watkins to a .5 but with Villa looking pretty decent think Watkins might be a decent punt with them playing Fulham.

    Just a minor correction on the article: The formation preferred at Barcelona has been 4-3-3 mainly for all years Semedo has been playing there. It's just the new season with Koeman that they seem to be playing with a 4-2-3-1.
    Anyway, very nice article and I can't wait to see Semedo and Adama playing together in the right flank of the Wolves. I think at 5.5 he could be a really valuable FPL asset.

      Adama will not pass, he is always attacking and direct.

      I think he'll be a valuable Wolves asset, not FPL. Nuno appears to have bought a LB and a RB, suggesting he's evolving a different system, maybe a 4-3-3

        Disagree, Semedo should be excellent in the 3-4-3. Also see no indication they're switching formations.

          As the article points out, Marcal is not used in a wingback role. If Vinagre goes, without Jonny there is no left wingback, and on the right that is not Semedo's accustomed role.

    From 1 to 3, how would you prioritise Son, Werner or Jesus on a WC?

    (only other players I have from those teams are James & KDB)

      Picking Son on wildcard is points chasing.

      Look at the next 3 fixtures for Chelsea versus Spurs

      Only one winner

    DCL or JRod on WC.

    Don't want 2 Everton

    1. Champions League Varane
      • 5 Years

      DCL

    2. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      DCL. Cheaper, leaves a vital midfield slots available. Not convinced by "HRod"

    Wow, Semedo has surprisingly underwhelming attacking stats for a Barca full back. Probably a consequence of the system he was used in. I presume he didn't play an attacking Dani Alves type of role then?

    Saiss and Jimenez are in for me atm, so one more slot to use. Strongly considering a Podence gamble, although I have doubts, and also waiting on Marcal news for Vinagre. Semedo could be better punt...

    A whole pack of Wolves to consider atm...

      You'd expect those numbers to improve as a wingback as opposed to a fullback though

      1. Ibralicious
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Was thinking this. Semedo was definitely solid, and one of the best fullbacks in Europe in recent memory. Shame what happened to Barca

      I've gone with Jimmy/Saiss & Podence

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

        He's another shiny new toy, and he simply has no previous for scoring or assisting goals. Jimi and Saiss are musts; I'd shy off Podders for the reason given. If we learn Vinny is good for 3 or 4 games, I'll bring him back into my squad. Otherwise, I'll settle for 2 Wolves.
