💎 Ones to Watch Reece James | Chelsea | £5.4m | 🔵 James faces Sunderland after an 18 point haul vs NFO. ✅ 90 mins in last 4 GWs → no fitness worries 1 goal + 3 assists this season → huge attacking potential Perfect for a short term punt with CS threat as well.

Enzo Fernández | Chelsea | £6.7m | 🔵 Should be on penalties (Cole Palmer injured) – scored vs Ajax midweek. 38 points in last 6 GWs 3 goals, 2 assists, 2 DC points, 3 bonus → ticks every box Perfect mid-price midfielder with great fixtures as well.

Igor Thiago | Brentford | £6.1m | 🐝 Brentford's Brazilian has scored 5 goals to collect 40 points. Brentford host a Liverpool side who have conceded 14 big chances in the last 4 GW's, ranked 19th in the league.

💎 Gyökeres Despite a brace on Tuesday, I am still not convinced on Gyokeres largely due to the nature of the goals, and how replicable they are. Want a stronger forward (Mateta?), is Arsneal a good entry point? No 3/ ⚠️ Why his brace might be misleading: Both had xGOT of

💎 João Pedro Key factor: team dynamics Enzo back in training → better attacking support Guiu looks like he will start which pushes JP back in the 10, which is his best position Fixture outlook (GW9-13): Sunderland H → good to hold Spurs A → potential returns (Spurs

💎 Defenders 💸 Premiums Gabriel | £6.4m | Arsenal 🔫 Arsenal boasts one of the league's best defences. Gabriel is a constant goal threat from set-pieces and has strong underlying defensive stats. He's an established, reliable choice in a top team. Jurriën Timber | £6m |

🏷️ Cheaper options Marcos Senesi | £5.0m | Bournemouth | 🍒 Rationale: Bournemouth has a favourable run of fixtures. Senesi is a defender with great potential for defensive contribution points and some attacking threat, making him a strong mid-priced option. Chris Richards

💎 Reijnders replacements Not enough attacking value given that City's top scorer is Haaland then Own goals (2) My favourite replacements are: (<£7m) 1⃣ Sarr 2⃣ Enzo 3⃣ Ndiaye 4⃣ Minteh 5⃣ Caicedo HM: Xhaka

💎 Captaincy (if no Haaland) Haaland is no doubt the best captain this week. People are talking up Villa's defence but they are sat 10th for xGC My favourite alternatives: 🥇 Semenyo - Dyche won't improve NFO instantly 🥈 Enzo - great fixture, likely on pens 🥉 James/Cucurella

💎 Liverpool Ekitike becomes almost a must own from GW12 if Isak is out long term, but that's not who I'm most excited about Gakpo: coming back into form, nailed on the wing, getting an abundance of chances, and really good stylistic fixtures for him No defenders to recommend

Gakpo will be in my team for Liverpool's run of great fixtures, unless Salah get's back to his best

💎 Differentials Adding on to the 3 from 'Ones to watch', Minteh, Welbeck, and Gordon catch my eye this week So James and Thiago join them, with Enzo being above 10% TSB
