🍕 GW5 TAKEAWAY
🍔 Sarr excellent vs NOR. 2x goals and could easily have had more
🍟 LIV very good again, Salah on another level at the moment
🌮 We shouldn't underestimate this BRE team. Superb win vs a WOL team who've actually impressed over the last few GWs
💡 LOW OWNED EYE CATCHERS
▫️Bailey changed the game for AVL in the 20mins he played before getting Subbed off injured getting a goal & assist - 0.8%
▫️Sarr, a superb performance, just too good for NOR - 6.8%
▫️Mbeumo was great vs WOL, could easily have had a bigger haul - 0.8%

⬇️ LEAGUE TABLE
🎯 FIXTURE TO TARGET
➡️ MUN vs AVL
With 13 goals (1st) so far this season, MUN are spoilt for choice when it comes to attacking assets. Despite a good display from AVL vs EVE in GW5 I foresee a comfortable home win. @drafthound give MUN a 38% chance of over 2.5 Goals.
MUN 3-1
🎯 FIXTURE TO TARGET
➡️ LEE vs WHU
LEE go toe to toe in every game, I can't help think this will be the undoing of them against a WHU team looking sharp in attack. Antonio's return to the team is likely to cause a fragile LEE defence some serious problems.
22 shots (2nd), 18 inside the box (2nd). Mo has 4 goals, 3 assists & an xG of 3.85 (1st) in the opening 5 GWs. Salah has been superb so far but so have the BRE defence. But I think LIV have too much for them & expect a return or two from the Egyptian king!
2 games, 3 goals. As we expected Ronaldo will shoot on site but the key to his goals has been his anticipation. 13 shots, 2.76 xG and 19 points in two games, he'll be a decent captaincy option against anybody but AVL at home feels particularly appealing.
🔴 RONALDO
🔎 A Closer Look
Since Ronaldo rejoined MUN in GW4:
Games: 2
Shots: 13 🥇
Shots on Target: 7 🥇
Shots in Box: 12 🥇
Big Chances: 5 🥇
xG: 2.76 🥇
Touches in box: 21 🥇
Goals: 3 🥇
A stunning start to life back at MUN & very likely to be my captain for GW6 v AVL! ✅
4 goals, 4 assists in 4 games. Missed GW5 through suspension so he'll be reasonably rested going in to GW6 against a Leeds team with no defence. Seeing how much they struggled with ASM in GW5 makes Antonio a really strong captaincy option.
Personally, I really like the idea of TAA, Alonso & Rudiger from GW7. Cancelo also remains high on my radar given his minutes. 📡
🐝 SARR
A fantastic performance vs NOR in GW5 puts Sarr on many managers radar ahead of GW6
NEW & LEE up next for WAT, ironically the two teams with the worst defensive records in the PL
NEW have conceded 13 goals (20th), LEE 12 (19th) whilst both have conceded 92 shots (20th)
🔴 BRENTFORD DEFENCE
Games: 5
Clean Sheets: 3
Goals Conceded: 2
Shots Conceded: 57 (3rd)
Shots in Box Conceded: 30 (4th)
Big Chances Conceded: 4 (2nd)
xGC: 3.84 (2nd)
✏️ 4 tricky matches ahead means assets should prob be avoided for now. But be sure to pencil them in for GW10!
💰 BUDGET BIN
For those aiming to free up some money to fund the Ronaldo, Lukaku, Salah triple up; here's a list of budget assets to consider when trying to free up some loose change.
▫️League Cup fixtures midweek. Whilst most teams will rotate key players I'd suggest holding back any moves until all your players have come through unscathed
▫️If you plan to WC in GW7 or GW8 taking a hit this week is probably not worthwhile
🚌 BUS TEAM
⚖️ BALANCE TOOL
🟥 Jota
🟧 Greenwood, Traore
🟨 Shaw, Ronaldo, Raphinha, Rudiger, Antonio, White
14 clean sheets (2nd) last season but only 4 of those came at home, that said with 3 home matches in that first 5 GWs I'm certainly not put off ARS defence coverage.
💭 My initial reaction was to lean towards RAMSDALE, but with RAYA signed he's one to avoid IMO
GABRIEL now the stand out option. 2nd best xG of all DEF's last season, 10 goals in last 3 seasons. A threat from set pieces
📉 SALIBA to be considered if you want away from template
Toney with a hat trick vs LEE including a banging free kick. He's now on 5goals & 2assists for the season
Mitrovic with another goal vs TOT. Back to back goals in each of their last 4games taking him to 6goals for the season.
Both strikers are high on my radar!
✍🏻 GW6 Notes
MUN with another win, whilst ARS dominated large spells MUN were clinical in attack. Antony debut goal & Eriksen was excellent, but Rashford the stand out FPL asset with goal & assist
Finally a LIV clean sheet! But TAA subbed on 59mins & Robbo benched! Frustrating!
Haaland with another hat trick vs NFO. Back to back hattys & 9goals already this season. Incredible
Mitrovic on the scoresheet once again, that's 5 in 5 for him. Don't let ties vs TOT & CHE put you off him, he'll cause even the best defences a problem in this form
📝 GW5 Notes
A very encouraging debut from Isak with a well taken goal & unlucky to have a second effort disallowed. At just £7.0 he's definitely worth keeping tabs on.
Back to back CS for MUN & 19pts from last two games for Dalot. At £4.4 he could be worth consideration
