Owners of Danny Welbeck (£5.9m) would have been worried at the sight of the striker being stretchered off on Saturday.

A back injury ended the forward’s afternoon after 80 minutes at St James’ Park.

The in-form veteran had earlier scored Brighton and Hove Albion’s winner at Newcastle United. That took him up to 50 points for the season, a tally that only Erling Haaland (£15.4m) can better among Fantasy Premier League (FPL) forwards.

Welbeck had to receive pain relief upon his substitution, later being taken to hospital. There were fears of a lengthy lay-off but a social media post from the Brighton attacker on Sunday evening sounded very positive.

Still a bit sore, but after some extra checks and scan today, I’m pleased to say I should be back in training soon. Thanks to our medical staff and Newcastle Royal Infirmary A&E for their care and professionalism. Also to the boys for waiting for me to get home!

There might still be an element of doubt for Gameweek 9. Welbeck doesn’t specify how “soon” he’ll be back in training, while the above post suggests he’s still in a bit of pain.

Evan Ferguson (£5.5m) will be on standby to deputise, with Joao Pedro (£5.4m) still out.

The Seagulls entertain Wolverhampton Wanderers, the division’s leakiest defence, on Saturday. After that comes two daunting tests: Liverpool away and Manchester City at home.

Beyond the next international break, however, the fixtures look excellent for Albion right through till Christmas:

0.2 short of Saka to Palmer, what move would you make to fund it? Unfortunately likely need to move early with price changes.

Flekken Fabianski
Gabriel Milenko Konsa VDB Greaves
Saka* Salah Mbuemo Rogers Dibling
Haaland Solanke Wood

A. Gabriel to Gvardiol
B. Wood to Larsen
C. Konsa to Andersen
D. Something else!

Thanks

  It does seem like the most obvious position to remove without much risk.
  
  Konsa was a likely sell next GW regardless with his fixtures.
  
  I’m quite keen on Gvardiol but Gabriel has the potential of those big hauls which would worry me to go without.

For clarity I don't own Son, but for me rules of the game its v clear and just not an assist and the post saying why they've given it as they don't deam Areolas touch signifent is to be kind it incorrect.

Just a quick question to see who agrees or not.
Do you think it was a Son assist?

A)Yes an assist
B)No

B - still holding out hope they’ll review before finalising the GW.

  Personally it's more about the integrity of the game than a few points that Son owners got, I honestly hope they remove it for that reason. You can't have a game this popular being run with bias

These decisions are made by certain people in FPL towers that own Son its obvious and its not the first time big name players get dodgy points

  I feel its the worst decision I've seen, I felt when Saka got 3bps which was reduced to 1, that the people in charge are being I influenced by who owns what player but I hope not.
