What I’ve learned about key FPL assets at half-way stage of unpredictable season

As we are midway through the season, it is an important time for some reflection which, for me, involves pausing and looking at some numbers.

And, anyone who knows me well enough should not be surprised to see that includes assessing the performance of big hitters against opposition of varying degree. 

It has not been a good first half of the season but, with all my chips intact, I’m hoping I can turn things around in the second half of the campaign. I’ve been making some steady progress in the last few weeks but it isn’t the Nitro boost I’m hoping for. 

I’ve recorded six green arrows out of the last eight Gameweeks where I’ve steadily climbed from 3.1 million to 1.47 million and I am hoping that trajectory continues.

This article is based on what I did at two previous occasions last season as well where I look at the performance of big hitters against different quality defences and try to make sense of the numbers and how it can help us in the future. This is the link to my previous article.

Just like my last piece on this subject, I divided the league into three tiers of defence (based on my opinion, form and some statistics). They are fairly similar to the assumptions I had last time around but please treat them strictly as my opinion. 

Then using the very useful ‘Per 90’ and ‘Performance Versus’ filters from the Premium Members Area, I tabulated the performances of these big hitters against the three categories of defences to see how much of an effect the fixtures have on them. 

I’ve delved further with my analysis this time around to see if we could gauge anything substantial from this data.

First off, the categorisation of teams is as follows:

  • The Kolarov (Top Tier) – Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea, Tottehnham Hotspur, Leicester City, Manchester United
  • The Lescott (Middle Tier) – Arsenal, Burnley, Everton, Wolves, Aston Villa, Southampton, West Ham
  • The Bramble (Bottom Tier) – Brighton, Newcastle United, Leeds United, West Brom, Sheffield United, Fulham, Crystal Palace

This table comparison gives us the Goals + Assists per 90 for these assets against different defences in the previous season as well as this season. The first thing that jumps out to me is the averages. 

While there was a distinct difference in the performance of assets against varying opposition in the previous season, the same hasn’t been the case this season. This is one of the reasons my ‘upside chasing’ strategy where I try to bring in players to captain in a good fixture hasn’t worked as effectively as last season primarily because broadly speaking, the performance of these premium picks against Kolarov (0.5 to 0.6) and Lescott (0.6 to 0.8) teams have improved. 

Secondly, players are not as explosive against Bramble teams as they were last season (1.0 to 0.8). And thirdly, my subjective opinion is that the likes of Harry Kane (£11.1m), Bruno Fernandes (£11.3m) and Son Heung-min (£9.7m) who are the highly owned assets in this game, haven’t really slowed down to an extreme degree which makes going for other big hitters, even for captaincy, more risky than it was last season because simply put, you’re betting against players who aren’t really slowing down.

Let’s now look at the performance of players on a team to team basis.

MANCHESTER CITY

Let’s talk about Kevin De Bruyne (£11.9m) first (in case you missed it, he looks out for a while). He’s playing in a slightly different position compared to last year and while he was hugely consistent against opposition of varying degree last season, he’s underperformed a bit against the Kolarov and Bramble teams this season. 

This makes sense to me because of two things. Firstly, Manchester City haven’t been the same free-scoring team this year that they were in the last season and arguably more value lies in their defence. Secondly, I also put down De Bruyne’s underperformance down to the fact that he and his compatriots have missed a lot of the chances created as well and he has been underperforming compared to his underlying numbers. It is worth noting that he has three goals and an xG of 7.48 this season. 

Raheem Sterling’s (£11.4m) numbers expectedly have gone down this season. What is worth noting is that he still has fairly strong numbers against ‘Bramble’ teams and is facing West Brom and Sheffield United in his next two fixtures. It is also worth noting that Phil Foden (£6.3m) has done fairly well against Kolarov and Lescott teams in the limited minutes he’s afforded against them.

Liverpool

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) has fairly consistent numbers compared to last season with a slight improvement in performance against Lescott and Bramble teams. This despite the five blanks (hello Zambian FPL addict) that he has had off late. It is worth noting that Salah still has the second best performance against Bramble teams, behind Jamie Vardy (£10.1m). 

Sadio Mané’s (£11.8m) numbers are still fairly consistent against Kolarov and Lescott teams but he’s seen quite a fall against the Bramble teams this season. The emergence of penalty picks and Mané’s form quite hasn’t been there in the first half of the season and it is worth monitoring if things change in the second half of the season.

MANCHESTER UNITED

When it comes to the Manchester United assets, it’s all about Bruno Fernandes (£11.3m). He’s shown a drastic improvement in his performance against the Kolarov and Lescott teams. He’s behind only Kane for performance against the Lescott teams and is as effective as Salah against Bramble opposition, which makes him a safe go to captaincy option against obliging defences. Marcus Rashford’s (£9.6m) numbers have reduced against good teams but he has seen a substantial improvement against poor teams. Such is Anthony Martial’s form (£8.8m) that his numbers have deteriorated across the board. 

THE OTHERS

The big story here is the Spurs assets. While I don’t have Son’s numbers from last season, Both him and Kane do incredibly well against all three kinds of opposition. 

The numbers for Kane and son against opposition of different category make sense to me as you’d expect Son to be more effective against Kolarov teams where they are expected to counter and you expect Kane to do better against Bramble opposition where you’d expect the opposition to sit deeper. 

Kane’s numbers have improved across the board from last season. Son is second only to Foden against good teams which is a good sign for those looking at him for De Bruyne replacements with the game against Liverpool incoming. Both players are best in class against Lescott teams which is the prime reason for fixture chasing with other premium assets simply hasn’t been as effective. Kane is a more reliable captain against more obliging teams. 

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s (£11.3m) numbers have dropped across the board and he simply hasn’t been in form this season. He does have the highest Non-Pen xG numbers in the league in the last four Gameweeks so things do look like they are changing. 

Historically, Auba is a good bet against weaker opposition but Arsenal’s fixtures don’t look very appealing in the mid-term. Vardy (who is also going to be out for a while) has done really well this season. He has increased his output against good opposition (hat trick vs Manchester City, goal and assist vs Spurs, assist vs Man United) and has been the most explosive asset amongst all the premium big hitters against obliging teams. 

He has a staggering 1.7 Goal + Assist/90 against such teams which is a shame because Leicester City had a good fixture run and he would have been a great asset to own in these fixtures based on his previous appearances.

Here is just a last look at these numbers for this season and three things stand out to me.

  1. The Spurs assets have good numbers across the board 
  2. Bruno, Vardy and Salah’s reliability against obliging teams could be key in the second half of the campaign.
  3. How these averages compare to last season

 That said it doesn’t take much time for the Fantasy landscape to change and I will be looking forward to doing a similar analysis at the end of this season.

Good luck to everyone preparing for Gameweek 20.

    Which teams are more likely to get doubles in GW26 please ? Or we can't have any clue yet ?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      The ones in FA Cup are their opponents.

  2. Drogo
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I guess KDB to Rashford is the main move here?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No

    2. tafrère
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Not really.

    3. Drogo
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Rashford has good fixtures and is also rested. Who would be better in your opinion?

      1. tafrère
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Gündogan
        Maddison
        Barnes
        Pogba
        Grealish
        Even Raphinha

        Plenty of options cheaper than Rashford imo.

      2. WE GO FOR IT
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Gundo is the main man people are targetting.

    4. The Mighty Hippo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Pogba is an option to consider ahead of Rashford.

    5. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      For me I think yes, though waiting for the game tomorrow. As a Sheff Utd fan, Man Utd will destroy us! Bruno will have super high effective ownership so I think a double up will help as differential.

      Gundogan in seems to be the most common move on here, but he actually hasn't had a shot on target in games where KDB isn't playing. Man City sucked vs. WBA last game with nearly all their chances created in it coming through KDB.

      1. OverTinker
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        penalties is the only thing he got. Plus he is popping up in right places for the first time. But i might still avoid gundo

    6. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Gundo is the ffs wagon

    7. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Not necessarily main but he is a good option indeed

    8. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No. Son for me.

  3. CRO KLOPP
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Why did Fabianski got subbed?

    1. Nightcrawler
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Rested

    2. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      So the reserve keeper could make a debut. It's not an injury.

    3. CRO KLOPP
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Thanks all

  4. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    If rival who is ahead of me by 80 pointa captains Bruno should I captain Sterling or Bruno?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Who do you think scores more next GW?

    2. tafrère
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Maybe too early to try to be different chasing your rival. Just play your own game, 19 gameweeks left. Start considering making differential moves later on the season imo.

    3. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I’m in the same position and think I can chase it down, I am heavily tempted to C Cancelo this week but think I’ll stick with Fernandes

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Still so tempted to do this - think if Bruno starts tomorrow that will cement if for me

        1. Warby84
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I just have a feeling

          1. Miguel Sanchez
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            He’s gonna haul at some point. Might have to create even more chances with KDB out

  5. yalala
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Anyone keeping Salah considering the curse is over?

    1. WE GO FOR IT
      • 8 Years

    Hearing rumours of a Grealish mega haul later....

    1. FantasyHero

      Knew football is rigged

    2. Warby84

      Wilson Pen 0-1

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A mega xA haul as Watkins misses everything?

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

        Hoping Grealish is more direct and shoots!

    4. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years

      My H2H opponent has Mings. So expect him to score.

    How many still in the cup are riding on the outcome of tonight's match? I know many cup matchups are already pretty much concluded.

    1. Nightcrawler
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Cup oppoentn needs 30 points from martinez and Mings to beat me

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Mings to pull a Stones & Martinez to save 2 penalties and you are done.

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

      Opponent needs 43 minimum from Martinez and Wilson, think I’m safe!

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Glad that you helped your opponent overcome the cup distraction and concentrate on other things.

        1. Big boy Bowen

    3. WE GO FOR IT
      • 8 Years

      Me: 14 points
      Opponent: Grealish + Watkins

      If Villa win comfortablly, I'll be out. If only KdB had stayed 1 minute longer. That was worth 4 points with my captaincy and him not owning him.

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years

        Pray for the duo to stay quiet.

        1. WE GO FOR IT
          • 8 Years

          Yeah, if they get 2 or more returns between them, I'll be out!

    Gutted been done by the pep roulette 3 times with gundagon, mahrez and Foden and now foden starts to make it an even more anxious wait should I just get rid?
    1ft 1.8m in the bank

    Martinez

      Keep Pep trying out new front three, Foden could play three times a week no problems.

    If Laporte does well today, how nailed do we think Stones is going to remain for the coming games?

    1. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      100%

      1. pingissimus
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Less convinced here - 5 fixtures in under 3 weeks followed by Champions League. Expecting rotation.

    2. bored by december
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Laporte should be doing well against Cheltenham...

    3. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He's nailed, Dias plays best at LCB, same position as Laporte and he's arguably City's most important player at the moment.

    4. fn.jota
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      i dont agree with most here. Dias is nailed, he plays beter at RCB but he is playing at LCB.

      if laporte comeback i would bet on dias and laporte but i dont think laporte is coming back

      1. dabber7
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yes I agree that Dias is nailed, why do you think Laporte won't be coming back?

        1. fn.jota
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          because john stones and dias play very good together why change something thats working? (:

          1. fn.jota
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            but i could be wrong because pep said recently in press conference that laporte was best LCB in the world... we have to wait 2 see but if laporte comeback i dont see dias getting benched

          2. dabber7
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Because Pep is Pep?

            I have both of Stones and Dias but seeing Laporte on the team sheet tonight, made me think, am I ultimately going to end up getting burned?

            I take your point though ...

      2. The Ejiptian King
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        There was an article a while ago where Pep said that Dias prefers to play at LCB so Stones was getting the best out of him, I'll try and find the link.

        1. The Ejiptian King
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Sorry, I quickly realised after posting that I can't be bothered looking.

          1. fn.jota
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            I just checked with a friend of mine that is a benfica fan (im from portugal) and he said that dias played in the right in benfica and its more logical because he is right footed

            1. dabber7
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 3 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              Yes, I kind of thought that he was only currently playing on the left until Laporte was fit and that ultimately it would be Stones who would be at risk.

              1. The Ejiptian King
                • 5 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                Nope.

              2. The Ejiptian King
                • 5 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                Laporte lost his place while he was fit and was injured since then.

            2. The Ejiptian King
              • 5 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              VVD prefers playing on the left side and he's right footed, Maguire too.

              1. fn.jota
                • 3 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                so dias played in his former club like 10 years at right center defender and now he likes to play at left? lol ok!

                  3 years, 2 months ago

                  That's what Pep said and he obviously thinks this is his best CB partnership.

                    with this partnership of course i agree with u but
                    dias is better on the left than stones but is not is natural position

    Is triple City defence a viable option for next 3 games or is 2 plus mid better option?

    Cancelo Dias and

    A Stones or
    B Gundogan
    C Sterling ( but makes getting Son/ Kane in 21 more difficult

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

      My own stupid rule is to have max 2 players from the same team - but go for it.

    2. Begbie.
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Don't get Sterling. He's useless.

    Thoughts on Davis to Kane for -4 and bench Soucek?

    1. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nah, FT next week

  17. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Thoughts on these moves?

    A Robbo to Justin, Shaw or Maguire

    B Soucek to Barnes, Pogba, Maddison

    To do B I need to release funds by doing A 🙂

    Bruno C or go crazy with Foden?

    Martinez
    Robertson, Stones, Dias
    Bruno, Son, Foden, Salah
    Kane, Bamford, Watkins

    Johnson, Soucek, Coufal, Mitchell

    1.5

    1. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A and I would watch Leicester game and see how are they looking. Wouldn't consider B now, because your XI is g2g

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      A Shaw

    3. bored by december
      • 6 Years

      really like the pogba and maguire picks, something different! Also got Maguire

    For anyone interested: No surprises in the 3pm kickoffs, so still on for massive blanks for now. Man City next-they are in an FA Cup pool with all lower league teams (NOT named "Wigan" or "Middlesborough"), so their GW29 game with Wolves should blank. Even if a miracle occurs, the game can still blank if Wolves beat Southampton R5.

      loving it

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

      With no FH My wish is for Bristol City to KO Sheffield, means Villa doesn't blank in 29 and could still have a double in 26.

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3 years, 2 months ago

    Tempted by Sterling

    Although other considerations are

    Grealish
    Maddison
    Rashford

    All including a -4 for stones

    1. Dwotle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Sterling not matching his price tag. Grealish out of those.

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I think over next 2 sterling is a great punt. Tempted myself

      2. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Agree, although he’s been ticking over recently and leaves cash in that spot for an easy switch to salah should be turn his fortunes around

        1. Dwotle
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          If he's a placeholder for Salah, go for it. Nice few fixtures.

          1. Ajax Hamsterdam
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            This

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

      Rashford with those run of fixtures

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

      I think I am gonna do KDB to Sterling.

  21. FPLGeezer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years

    Who to start?

    A) Coufal cry
    B) Dallas New
    C) Mitchell WHU

    1. Dwotle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Foden start): thinking should i sell foden for gundo now?

  24. pundit of punts
    • 11 Years

    Save FT?

    Martinez
    Dias - KWP - Holding
    Bruno - Grealish - Foden - Son
    Kane - Wilson - Bamford

    Button - Mitchell - Dier - KDB

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah I’d save there

      1. Dwotle
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Would be tempted by double City defence in your position, but solid team.

    Transferred out Che Adams for Watkins last night. Hope he starts tonight and score. Come on Ollie !!

    1. Jamizz
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I hope so too. Just that you won't get the points

      1. Niho992
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Why not? Goal and 3 BAPS = 9 pts

        1. Jamizz
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          How do you expect to get the points when you brought him in last night?

        • 3 Years

        I'm confident of a warkins double hattrick tonight, with all 6 assisted by grealish.

      1. Niho992
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Newcastle at home. Thats why and Adams blanked today vs Arsenal which is great

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years

          It's still GW19.

            • 5 Years

  26. Ci Siamo

    Which City defender should I double Dias with?

    A) Cancelo

    B) Stones

    1. OverTinker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Cancelo

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Stones all day

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Cancelo is almost as nailed & far more threatening

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

      I'd think that Cancelo will outscore Stones over the rest of the season if both remain fit. Who's the better value? Don't know, but probably Cancelo too, especilly with all the money spare some of us have around this time. I'd say Cancelo, assuming you have a bench.

    Who is best to replace vardy? already got kane and bamford

    1. Gizzachance
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Antonio?

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

      Antonio or risk it for Cavani if you're feeling fruity

    3. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Antonio, or even possibly Ings

    4. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Antonio or DCL if looking good in the cup

  28. Silecro
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Which option would you choose for next GW out of those:

    A) Play Soucek vs cry
    B) Play Dallas vs new
    C) Play Gundo vs wba (but with -4 taken)

    1. Deulofail
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B please

    2. Gizzachance
