Notes, Fixture Dossiers & Commentary from the Desk
Strategy dossiers, fixture forensics and opinion — filed from the commentary desk.
Chelsea host the only defence in the league without a clean sheet, Cole Palmer is available because his ban was served in the cup, and the armband is a straight fight between the league's leading scorer and the best fixture on the board.
Chelsea hosted the fixture we called the softest of the week and lost 2-0 to a side with eight goals all season. Palmer was sent off, João Pedro never got on the pitch, and the goalkeeper we named as the one to avoid returned nine points.
The form team in the game walks into Anfield, Chelsea host a Tottenham side with six goals in seven matches, and the armband is a genuine two-horse race for the first time this season.
Our captain scored twice, the team we called the form team in the game won 5-0, and the four transfers we actually recommended returned three points between them. Gameweek 7, scored honestly.
The most expensive player in the game finally gets the softest fixture on the board — and the highest scorers in FPL all wear Brighton blue. Here is how the commentary desk sees Gameweek 7.
The Premier League returns from a three-week break with the most decorated name in the game facing his hardest fixture of the season — and twenty of your squad carrying a flag into it.
The second-most-owned player in FPL didn't play a minute — and we told you that was coming. Then Coventry, the team we said to own nobody from, won their first game of the season and their £4.0m defenders scored 35 points between them.
It is the last round before a three-week break, the softest premium fixture on the board hands you the armband, and three of the most-owned names in the game are carrying flags into it.
Nearly 1.75 million wildcards have already gone. With Gameweek 5 the last round before a three-week break, here is the full 15-man squad — every price, every fixture, and why each name is in.
Manchester's derby swallows the two most expensive assets in the game, Liverpool host Fulham, Chelsea host Hull — and after three gameweeks the form board keeps pointing at the cheap end of the market.
