Neto and Podence strike as Wolves win overshadowed by serious Jiménez injury

Arsenal 1-2 Wolves

  • Goals: Gabriel (£5.1m) | Pedro Neto (£5.5m), Daniel Podence (£5.4m)
  • Assists: Willian (£7.6m) | Leander Dendoncker (£4.8m), Neto
  • Bonus points: Neto x3, Podence x2, Gabriel x1

GET WELL SOON RAÚL

Wolves 2-1 win over Arsenal was overshadowed by a sickening injury to Raúl Jiménez (£8.3m), who looks set for an extended period on the sidelines.

The Mexican forward sustained a heavy blow to the head from David Luiz (£5.5m) and required treatment on the pitch for 10 minutes before he was taken to hospital.

On Monday, the club’s official website revealed that Jiménez had fractured his skull and had undergone a successful operation overnight.

“He’s doing a scan now but he’s conscious, he’s OK. We are worried, of course. He speaks, he’s aware, but he’s doing a scan and now we have to have a proper assessment. He’s in good hands.” – Nuno Espirito Santo

“Raul is comfortable following an operation last night, which he underwent in a London hospital. He has since seen his partner Daniela and is now resting. He will remain under observation for a few days while he begins his recovery. The club would like to thank the medical staff at Arsenal, the NHS paramedics, hospital staff and surgeons who, through their skill and early response, were of such help.” – Wolves statement

During his two-and-a-half years at Wolves, Jiménez has fast become a Fantasy cult hero so it goes without saying that everyone at FFScout wishes him a speedy recovery and the best of health.

BACK OF THE NETO

It is to Wolves’ credit that they were able to focus themselves after witnessing such a serious injury befall one of their colleagues.

“We were massively worried when it happened, you knew straight away it was serious. We hope David Luiz is OK as well. It was a horrible clash of heads, this happens in football, but you don’t like to see it. You’ve got to [refocus]. We had 80 minutes left of the game, so you’ve got to. You go and play and hope you get the win for Raul. We had to do it for him, he’s a massive part of this football club, he’s a massive friend to every single one of us in that changing room.” – Conor Coady

Pedro Neto (£5.5m) was the chief of these as he involved himself in both of Wolves’ goals, his 13-point haul making him the club’s top-scoring FPL asset for the season.

In fact, it was also enough to propel the Portuguese international into the top 10 scorers among all midfielders and, crucially, he is also the cheapest among those.

Costing just £5.5m, Neto has offered 9.3 points per million spent in 2020/21, 1.9 more than similar-priced colleague Daniel Podence (£5.4m), who also netted his second goal of the season against Arsenal.

With Liverpool (away) and Chelsea (home) two of Wolves’ next three opponents, and Spurs (home) and Manchester United (away) waiting in Gameweeks 15 and 16, it is a little while until Wolves attackers will be on our radar again.

However, Nuno’s men face Brighton (away), Everton (home) and West Bromwich Albion (home) between Gameweeks 17 and 19, when their attack might become more viable.

At that point, we may have seen enough of Fabio Silva (£5.2m), who replaced Jiménez as the centre-forward on Sunday, to assess his credentials as a Fantasy asset.

PAIN IN THE ARSENAL

Ahead of Gameweek 11’s north London derby, owners of Tottenham assets will have been licking their lips at yet another dire Arsenal performance – although the data is not quite simple enough to warrant an all-out backing of Harry Kane (£10.9m) and Son Heung-min (£9.5m) for the captaincy. 

The Gunners offered very little against Wolves and have now lost five of their first 10 league games of the campaign, three of those coming at home now.

Interestingly, Arsenal have fared slightly better away from home so far this season, although only defensively.

They have let in eight league goals across five matches at the Emirates Stadium in 2020/21 so far (1.6 per game) but, having played the same number on the road, Mikel Arteta’s men have given up just four goals (0.8 per game). Over the first 10 Gameweeks, only Spurs themselves and Aston Villa have been so solid away from home.

However, where Arteta has tried to tighten the ship at Arsenal, their attack continues to be nothing short of completely anaemic.

Accordingly, owners of Spurs’ defensive assets might be a little more encouraged considering Arsenal’s key man Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.6m) has just two goals this season and the Gunners themselves have found the net in just two matches since Gameweek 5.

“It’s something that the day I decided to be a coach I knew that one day I would be sacked or leave the football club but I don’t know when that’s going to happen. In this profession, I know it will happen but I never worry about it. My only concern is to get the best out of the players and give the best possible service to the club.” – Mikel Arteta.

Arsenal XI (4-2-3-1): Leno; Tierney, Gabriel, D Luiz (Holding 46′), Bellerín; Xhaka (Lacazette 80′), Ceballos; Saka, Willock, Willian (Nelson 65′); Aubameyang.

Wolves XI (4-2-3-1): Patrício; Marçal, Coady, Boly, Semedo; Moutinho, Dendoncker; Neto, Podence (Neves 70′), Traoré; Jiménez (F Silva 15′ | Kilman 78′).

      I feel the exact same way about KDB. Points will come for sure.

      Watkins was the right call...could have been double digit differential but for a few inches, or a different VAR result.

    Been tracking Watkins all year after his impressive stats from last year. He is the real deal, just been unlucky so far, I may jump on when I need to replace one of my front 3.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Some people unkindly call him Shitkins.

    2. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I'm thinking of downgrading Kane to Watkins to fund Salah.

      I like Watkins over Wilson.

      1. De Gea is GOAT
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Thinking the same. But Watkins Grealish double up might be too much?

        1. Cruyff's Eleven
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Unless you do Graelish to Salah....

          1. De Gea is GOAT
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Don't know how i feel about Kane& Grealish to Watkins/Salah tbh. But they are my planned moves.

  6. SHOWSTOPPERRR

    Guys fplstat showing vardy on 97 red arrow, it's an error right?

    1. Vazza
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Probably not

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      no

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

        So you are saying that he is dropping in price?

        1. Joggers Nipple
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          close to doing so, yes

          1. Joggers Nipple
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Im wrong, no he isnt

    3. gwitbrock
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      that just means he got to 97% and is now on the way down, not that he's -97%. If thats what you had thought.

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

        Yeah. He is on second interview list but red arrow normally it is blue right? That is why I have asked. Anyway lucky to get away with 5 points..

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

          Yeah no the arrow by the side is just to signify how fast he is either being bought or sold, the number by the side is how close he is to rising or falling depending on whether its positive or negative.

  7. Live Lad
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Any upside in keeping the WC till GW 16?
    My team is ok but if there isn't much advantage I might use it soon to sort out the defense and maybe going heavy on City against Fulham (like double attack) and then WC the next week to bring in Salah.
    Thanks.

    1. Vazza
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      See my post below. Haha!

  8. SHOWSTOPPERRR
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    I transferred vardy in for Kane for free had I not transferred him. I will be captaining Bruno, in that case I would end up at 60 now 58 all out.

    1. Vazza
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A two point difference is not too bad

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

        Yeah, and not regretting in vardy transfer too which gives me the money to do son to kdb for free, if I didnt do that transfer I might lost 0.1m on Kane sp and kdb rising the day after would priced me out.

  9. Vazza
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    I still have my wildcard but am happy with my current team.

    When should I use it? The double and blank gameweeks are likely to be after the wildcard deadline (GW16).

    1. Chelsea91
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Use in Double gw

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years

      GW16 if you don't need it.

  10. ARH
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Not meant as a brag (previous history nothing to brag about), just genuinely curious. First time ever I have got to week 10 with only green arrows. It obviously helps having a game week 1 rank of nearly 4 million. But was wondering if anyone else is the same boat? How common is it?

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I honestly couldn't tell you mate but the last few years I have had massive patches of green, red, green, red, green etc. and in fact looking again now, this year is panning out in much the same way thus far.

      1. ARH
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        True. That’s what I normally expect.
        Thanks for the reply.
        My lucky run can’t go on forever.
        I will enjoy it while I can.

        1. waldo666
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Absolutely enjoy it mate, that's an awesome climb from GW1!

    2. NOMONEY
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      really nice and your history is not bad

  11. Pep Roulette
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    A. Kane to Watkins

    B. Son to Grealish

    1. De Gea is GOAT
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If i had to pick it would be B. Kane is more dangerous than Son atm imo

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A

    3. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      easy B for me if you have 2 heavy hitters in midfield

    4. Chelsea91
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I would go B

  12. Live Lad
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    To get Salah somebody has to make way. It will be between
    (1) Son
    (2) Ziyech

    I guess Spurs tough runs of fixtures are all but over. They can score in the coming GWs. Ziyech is good but he will mainly get a lot of assist- he doesn't shoot a lot or does he go into the box a lot.

    Also worth doing a week punt on Mahrez for the Fulham game (Have KDB). In that case I will need a hit to get Salah back in the following week.

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      2

    2. Chelsea91
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If have kane, should be 1, if no than 2

  13. bso

    Is Jota going up tonight? FPL Statistics shows no, FFFix says yes...

    1. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      He did not go up about 1 hour 45 mins ago but probably tomorrow.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        90 percent on FPL stats now so we have to be close to 100% tomorrow.

  14. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Persisting with Sterling with C for a second week is

    1. Dumb / stubborn
    2. Smart / nice diff captain

    I also have KDB

    1. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Both

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Ah yes that answer explains a lot. FPL just like the quantum world !!

    2. Simon69
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Depends on who ends up starting in the CL I guess.

    3. NOMONEY
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      cap kdb

      even if sterling starts, kdb will get more points, he is the real deal

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah Sterling has very little form to go on but looking for a diff maybe that in itself is not reason enough.

    4. Scratch
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      On paper they're obviously both great shouts to fill their boots. Pure luck as to who does better. If I had both I would probably also go Sterling purely because he was benched last week so he should be "safe".

    5. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      It could work out brilliantly, it would be fairly surprising if he didn't start. Has much higher goal scoring potential if he does and can always hit big hauls.

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

      Same boat - have both KDB and sterling and will captain sterling again

  15. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Over the next few weeks I want all 4
    Of Salah KDB Bruno and Sterling
    At the start of the season there was a lot of talk of transferring these heavy hitting mids in and out based on fixtures - not much talk about it anymore? Is it a viable strategy?
    Realistically 4 is not feasible but 3 still leaves a decent team.

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I have the first 3 but Son instead of Sterling and team is still fairly balanced due to the fact cheap forwards have been doing well. I've never been one for constantly shifting big hitters, just has too much potential to bite for mine.

      You'd be happy having just KDB, surely?

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah the backfire potential is huge.
        Neither Mahrez or Sterling are nailed which is annoying but I want 2 city attackers.
        I guessed they were going to kick off but Sterling and Cancelo I picked to go with KDB 🙂
        Don’t know what Pep sees in Torres and he is throwing a proper spanner in the works.

    2. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I don't know. Only way to fit it is to go without premium forwards.

      1. Chelsea91
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Front Three

        DCL,Wilson/Watkins,Bamford

        1. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Doesn’t work even with 2 of those if you want a defence.
          I have Chilwell and Cancelo,
          The maths just doesnt add up unless I go cheaper in defence.

          1. Albrightondknight
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Sorry I should also say
            the other 2 mids are Grealish and Jota so going for the big 4 mids means giving up one of these which seems silly.
            Bamford and Chilwell represents value too so I want them and the compromise has to be 3 premium mids.
            I think I will risk rotating them as it seems the only option.

  16. Ziyech on the Bench
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Bowen to Jota no brainer?

    1. Chelsea91
      • 5 Years

      Hold

    2. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Definitely not a no brainer. Bowen is in decent form and there’s no telling if Jota keeps his spot

    3 Villa players in my team... if the Newcastle match gets postponed i'm fairly goosed

    1. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Is there a rumor that it will?

      1. Scratch
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Covid outbreak with Newcastle squad they're all self isolating, training cancelled until midweek at the earliest

        1. Bushwhacker
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Seems rather unfair to make Newcastle play with one days training and without physio most of the week

          1. Scratch
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Training resumes Wednesday at the earliest so best case 2 days training. There's a slim possibility the match could be forfeit but i doubt that.
            Regarding fairness, it isn't totally fair on Villa to postpone it either.

    How would you get Salah back in this team? 2FT 0 ITB

    Leno Button
    Robbo Targett Zouma kilman lascelles
    KDB Son Bruno Grealish Ziyech
    DCL Watkins Brewster

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      With great difficulty! You need to work out who you're willing to sacrifice, downgrades of Robbo or Son would enable Ziyech to Salah?

      1. Dthinger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah that’s what I was thinking. I can’t see a way to keep both Son and KDB

      2. Dthinger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Don’t think downgrading Robbo gets me enough to do Z to Salah

  24. Live Lad

    Current team:

    Martinez, Steer
    Bellerin, Chillwell, Robertson, Mitchell*, Ferguson*
    Ziyech, KDB, Son, Grealish, Bissouma
    DCL, Vardy, Adams

    Probable WC team:

    Martinez, Steer
    Chillwell, James, Coufal, Dallas, Mitchell
    KDB, Son, Grealish Bruno, Salah
    Bamford, Antonio, Brewster

    Should I do it? A big dilemma really. I can get Salah for free if I save (which I can) this week.
    Thanks.

    1. Live Lad

      WC will give me power 5 mids.

      Martinez

      KDB, Son, Grealish, Bruno, Salah

      Bamford, Antonio

      1. Bushwhacker

        That’s a anorexic front line

        1. Dthinger
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Yeah, seems like you can do better up front for that money.

      2. Kane Train
        • 9 Years

        That forward line is horrendous hahah

    2. Scratch

      I think there's a good chance your current team outscores your WC team

    Play one this gw

    A. Soucek mun (h)

      Dallas

    2. Kane Train

      Soucek. Chelsea will score. West ham could at least get involved in a goal

    I need to get rid of Digne this week.
    I have Chilwell but I am thinking of getting Zouma for the double defence with my 1 FT.
    Good idea or stay away from the defence double up?

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

      James.

    2. bombayblues
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Get James. Higher ceiling

  27. Kane Train
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    2FT 0.4itb. Any suggestions?

    McCarthy
    Coufal / Chilwell / Justin
    Bruno / Grealish / Ziyech / Rashford
    Vardy / Kane / DCL

    Steer, Soucek, Striujk , Mitchell

    I think I've run out of patience with Foden, got lucky with him coming off the bench for an assist at the weekend but with there being a doubt over the Villa v Newcastle game going ahead, I can't afford to have him on the bench again.

    0.3 itb so can just afford the switch to Jota but is that trading one rotation risk for another? Or should I wait to see if Foden plays v Porto and if not hope he gets a start against Fulham?

    1. PAs lag
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Foden`> Jota

    2. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      yep i know the feels
      too frustrating so swapped to Jota last week
      the only downside to Jota is if he doesn't start he will pretty much get 20 mins every match whereas Foden might not play at all so 1st sub pretty important

    Did Watkins seriously miss a penalty and have a goal disallowed because his bloody arm was offside? After JRod and Salah too, that's very infuriating.

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yep, I bought him in this week too so was very frustrating indeed!

    2. Bielsa Murderball
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      yes, include bamford's 'goal' in there because he was communicating - an art of football

  30. waldo666
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    What to do here?

    1FT and 0.8 ITB

    Ryan
    Chillwell Semedo Mitchell
    Salah Bruno Son KDB
    Watkins Wilson Mitrovic

    (Nyland** Bissouma Lascelles* Douglas**)

    A) Mitrovic to Bamford/Antonio
    B) Sort out my horrible defence

        Probably is the way to go TM, I am however very hit averse. But risk obviously lessened with shifting out deadweight so may just take my first one this week, cheers.
