GW 1 Notes - Teams ✍️

🟣 Villa - Very, very disappointing performance in GW 1. Can they bounce back vs Everton?

💎 Man City - Total control. Extremely solid defensively and sharp in attack. Triple up ✅

🔵 Chelsea - Looking good for clean sheets, not as good for goals however

GW 1 Notes - Players ✍️

🔴 Nunez - Another incredible cameo, Nunez completely changed the game vs Fulham. Potential game changer in FPL.

💎 Haaland - Yeah, he’s adjusted to the league. Superb player, as we already know. Just get him in your team.

GW 2 Fixture to Target 🎯

💎 Man City vs: BOU (H)

This game could easily end in a 5-0 win for City. Yes, Bournemouth beat Villa in GW 1 but they’ll be up against something completely different this week. Cancelo, Dias, Walker, Foden, KDB and Haaland are all great picks.

GW 2 Player Recommendation:

Phil Foden started GW 1 and as he’s capable of playing both LW and RW, I expect him to start again vs Bournemouth. Given just how great that fixture is, Foden might be the best ’one week punt’ out there, but also fine to keep for GW 3-5.

GW 2 Player to Avoid:

I didn’t really like what I saw from Bukayo Saka in GW 1, mainly due to the fact that he basically played right wingback for parts of the game. Unless that changes, Saka is a clear avoid for me right now. Martinelli is definitely the better value pick.

GW 2 Tips 💡

🔹If you have Haaland (or are comfortable captaining Salah), rolling the transfer is the move.

🔹Don’t draw too many conclusions based on GW 1 only, it’s just 1 GW’s worth of data. Incredibly small sample size.

GW 2 Captaincy

1) Erling Haaland - 💰11.6
Fixture: BOU (H)

Cashed in on his xG numbers in GW 1, and showed what an incredible player he is. Fixture wise it doesn’t get much better than Bournemouth (H), so Haaland is no doubt the standout captain this week.

2) Mohamed Salah - 💰13.0
Fixture: CRY (H)

If you don’t own Haaland or maybe don’t trust the Norwegian’s minutes, Mo Salah is a completely viable alternative for captaincy. Quality player, obviously, and the fixture isn’t bad.

GW 2 Captaincy - Differential

Darwin Nuñez - 💰9.0
Fixture: CRY (H)

Not many will go for Nunez (C), but there’s definitely potential for a haul here. He should start, and we’ve seen what he can do when coming off the bench. For the mega risk taker.

GW 2 Differentials:

1️⃣ Jarrod Bowen - 💰8.5
Ownership: 6.5%
Fixture: NFO (A)

2️⃣ Ilkay Gundogan - 💰7.5
Ownership: 1.3%
Fixture: BOU (H)

3️⃣ Brenden Aaronson - 💰5.5
Ownership: 1.2%
Fixture: SOU (A)

GW 2 Wildcard 📊
