π Enzo vs Sarr β Enzo β key role, 3β½οΈ & 2π °οΈ, good fixtures until GW22, on pens β Could Estevao take a more attacking role? Enzo potential injury concerns β Sarr β cheap differential, good form, shadow striker role β Next 2 fixtures are tough β‘οΈ Verdict: Enzo safer for

π Bruno β On set-pieces and penalties β Defcon opportunity β Attacking potential is diminished β Defcon isn't guaranteed, making it effective 1 point/week gained β‘οΈ Verdict: Sell, to Saka if possible
π GyΓΆkeres β Decent underlying numbers β Still has fixture upside β His 3 goals were against Leeds (1 penalty) and Forest β Penalty confusion β Has struggled in more physical games (Small sample) β‘οΈ Verdict: Not worth selling, more of a luxury transfer
π Forwards I've already wrote a thread on this, you can find it attached below https://x.com/_TalkFPL/status/... The top 3 is changing though, Pedro could easily be 1st Try to look at the negatives as opposed to the positives, look for what you need to know rather than what you already
π Wildcard GW8 Look through over 70 and counting Wildcard GW8 drafts below And 1 I came up with https://x.com/_TalkFPL/status/...
π Foden β Decent fixtures. β 2 weeks rest on int'l break. β Pep roulette always a risk. β KDB role limits his G/A potential. β‘οΈVerdict: I'd sell, Sarr/Enzo provide more safety and value.
π Eze β Great fixtures. β Scored on int'l break. β Odegaard injured means he plays in his favoured 10 role β Not on pens β No massive haul for Arsenal (Yet... small sample) β‘οΈVerdict: If you can't afford Saka, he's great, and I see a good level of points in sight
π DCL β Potential Pens β Great short term fixtures β Enabler at Β£5.5m β Historical inconsistent finishing β Prone to injuries β‘οΈ verdict: No from me, could score Vs Burnley but after that I think it's bleak
π Double Arsenal attack or defence? Arsenal have been the best defensive team according to xGC in the league, but the 4th best according to xG They are 9th= for xG/shot despite being 2nd for shots taken Facing the lowest quality shots in the game through both xGC/shot and
All the data signifies why double defence is better, preferably Gabriel + Timber The defenders have attacking threat, whilst the attackers don't have defensive threat They won't keep a CS every game, but that's the upside. A goal doesn't guarantee points, a clean sheet does
π Chelsea β Cucurella - attacking fullback with high key role β Enzo/Joao Pedro for attacking potential β Sanchez - no GK transfers, and if so, Pope is better β Caicedo - Just think Enzo is better (unless budget of course)
π West Ham β Bowen - despite overperformance he has easier fixtures I'd have Diouf in in need of a cheap defender, could play as a LWB and if not is still very attacking, Defcon potential as well Wouldn't double up on attack with Paqueta
π Salah β Well rested for GW8, for good long term fixtures β Reliable captaincy option for GW8. β Poor form - hasn't been reliable along with Liverpool β Expensive, limits flexibility with Haaland + premiums. β‘οΈ Verdict: Wouldn't sell, becomes hard to sell as he has great
π Differentials My favourite differentials for GW8 π π² Diouf - Assist threat, on some set pieces, and an easier fixture π² Sarr - On fire since returning from injury, converting his chances well π² Woltemade - 3 goals in 4 games, and the focal point of the Newcastle attack
