In the Suspension Tightrope, we look at the players close to a ban, already suspended or returning from the naughty step in Gameweek 15.

HOW MANY BOOKINGS RESULT IN A BAN – AND WHEN ARE THE CUT-OFF POINTS?

ban Gameweek 13

We’ve taken the above table from the Football Association website. It details the cut-off points for the various yellow card thresholds.

The one we’re concerned about right now is the five-caution mark. This is an unwanted target that Premier League players will have to avoid for their team’s first 19 league matches of the season.

Punishments for yellow card accumulation are competition-specific, whereas suspensions for dismissals cover all competitive matches.

ON FOUR YELLOW CARDS

There was just one new addition joined the 21-strong list in Gameweek 14. That player was Brighton and Hove Albion’s Sergio Gomez (£4.9m).

Gianluigi Donnarumma (£5.7m), Riccardo Calafiori (£5.8m) and Daniel Munoz (£6.1m) – all of whom have double-digit ownerships – remain precariously positioned on four bookings but at least avoided fate-sealing yellow cards in midweek.

ON THREE YELLOW CARDS

There are 47 others who have a bit more breathing space on three yellow cards.

They include Micky van de Ven (£4.7m), Antoine Semenyo (£7.7m), Marc Cucurella (£6.2m), Mohammed Kudus (£6.5m), Jack Grealish (£6.6m), Igor Thiago (£6.8m) and Phil Foden (£8.3m), who all sit in 10%+ of FPL squads.

SUSPENDED IN GAMEWEEK 15

FPL notes: Why Caicedo was a sub + £4.2m Guiu assists

Tim Iroegbunam (£4.8m), Tyler Adams (£5.0m) and Joao Gomes (£5.3m) all picked up their fifth bookings of the season in midweek and serve one-match suspensions in Gameweek 15.

In terms of ongoing punishment, Idrissa Gana Gueye (£5.4m) serves the final game of a three-match ban.

Lewis Cook (£4.9m) and Moises Caicedo (£5.9m) will miss the second of the three matches they’re suspended for.

Mykhailo Mudryk (£4.9m) also remains provisionally suspended by the FA.

BACK FROM A BAN IN GAMEWEEK 15

­­­FPL Gameweek 4 differentials: Elliott, Truffert + Paqueta 4

Lucas Paqueta (£5.9m), Marcos Senesi (£5.0m) and David Brooks (£5.0m) all return this weekend.

That trio had served one-match bans in Gameweek 14.

    How nailed do we think Thiaw and Burn are? Concerned about Schar taking that space. Livramento an alternative given that Trippier is out?

        You'll have 5 next week no matter what. If you don't use this week's FT it will effectively be lost.

          Ahh, yeah that's a tough one. I think the team is more than good enough without FH though. Maybe Petrovic to Verbruggen?

      Think i'd prob bench Chalobah but tough one.

      Maybe Caicedo to someone like Dewsbury-Hall as you dont mind benching him most weeks and will pop up with some points now and again. Might need him this week with rotation going on.

      Both Pope/Caicedo probably depends on your ideal replacement. If you don't have enough funds, you could delay one of them until 16 when you can downgrade other spots to release funds.

      I haven't looked into FH15 so I can't give an answer. I would suggest noting down the teams to target on FH for 15-19 and see where you can make gains compared to your non-FH team

          Seems he is pencilled in for a rest / reduced minutes this weekend according to folk on here. But yeah, he likely comes in for Mbeumo next week, if not this week.

      Stupidly waited to pull the trigger on Semenyo & JP to Foden & Thiago and now priced out.

      Would you just play them both this week & wait til next week, or shift Mateta instead of JP to fund the move?
