Welcome to Who Got The Points, your daily FPL fix. I'm Archer, and here's what you need to know in the next seven minutes. Gameweek twenty-five is done and dusted, and we're now looking ahead to Gameweek twenty-six with a Tuesday deadline at six PM. This is a double gameweek for Wolves and Arsenal, so there's plenty to unpack. Let's dive straight in.
Right, the rapid-fire news bulletin. First up, Arsenal demolished Sunderland three-nil in Gameweek twenty-five, keeping their clean sheet and looking rock solid ahead of their double gameweek. Mikel Arteta's side face Brentford on Thursday, giving them two fixtures this week. Second, Man City bounced back with a crucial two-one win at Liverpool, with Semenyo blanking but the Citizens looking more dangerous. And third, the big talking point from Monday's press conferences is that Wolves have a double gameweek but Rob Edwards' side look absolutely dire. They've conceded three at Chelsea and simply can't defend. That makes their double fixtures less appealing than you'd think. Right, let's get to the transfers.
Top three transfers in. First up, Jurrien Timber from Arsenal at six point four million pounds. He's sitting at thirty point seven percent ownership and has absolutely exploded in popularity with over two hundred thousand transfers in. Timber played the full ninety against Sunderland, kept a clean sheet, and now has twelve clean sheets this season. That's elite defensive output. The key stat here is ten point four expected points for Gameweek twenty-six. He's got that Arsenal double, playing Brentford at home on Thursday after facing them. The verdict? Essential. At six point four million pounds with Arsenal's fixtures and his attacking threat from full-back, he's a must-have defender for the double.
Second transfer in is Summerville from West Ham at five point six million pounds. Now here's a player who's flying under the radar at just two point one percent ownership. He bagged eleven points in Gameweek twenty-five with a goal and a clean sheet against Burnley, playing the full ninety. The key stat is that he's scored four goals this season from midfield at a budget price. He's risen to five point six million pounds but faces Man United away on Tuesday. The verdict? Good buy. At that price with his attacking returns, he's great value, but West Ham's fixture against Man United isn't the easiest, so he's not essential just yet.
Third transfer in is Mbeumo from Man United at eight point six million pounds. Wait, let me correct that, he's at Man United now? Yes, the data shows Mbeumo is now at Man United, currently at twenty-two percent ownership with over two hundred thousand transfers in. He scored eight points in Gameweek twenty-five with a goal and a clean sheet. The key stat is nine goals this season, making him a genuine goal threat. With seven point two expected points for Gameweek twenty-six against West Ham away, he's in fantastic form. The verdict? Essential. At eight point six million pounds with those goal numbers and Michael Carrick's United looking better, he's a top midfield option.
Now the top three transfers out. First one is Wirtz from Liverpool at eight point four million pounds. He's dropped in ownership from thirteen point eight percent and has seen over seventy thousand transfers out. He played ninety minutes against Man City but managed just two points with no returns. The key stat is he's lost form with only two points in Gameweek twenty-five despite full minutes. Liverpool face Sunderland away midweek, which is tough. The verdict? Hold for now. He's still got quality and Liverpool's attacking potential, but if you need funds elsewhere, he's a reasonable sell.
Second transfer out is Chalobah from Chelsea at five point eight million pounds. He's at twenty-three point eight percent ownership but has seen over seventy thousand transfers out. Played the full ninety at Wolves and grabbed four points but no clean sheet. The key stat is Chelsea have conceded twenty-seven goals this season despite his nine clean sheets. Liam Rosenior's Chelsea are inconsistent at the back. They face Leeds at home on Tuesday in Gameweek twenty-six. The verdict? Sell if you need funds. At five point eight million pounds, there are better defensive options, especially with their leaky defence recently.
Third transfer out is Semenyo from Man City at seven point nine million pounds. This one's interesting because he's at forty-eight point nine percent ownership but has seen one hundred and thirty thousand transfers out. He blanked in the Liverpool win with just two points from ninety minutes. The key stat is twelve goals this season, so he's still a proven scorer, but he's gone quiet recently. Man City face Fulham at home on Wednesday. The verdict? Keep for one more week. Despite the blank, twelve goals this season is elite production. Pep Guardiola's side at home to Fulham should provide chances. Don't panic sell.
Differential picks time. Under ten percent ownership only. First up, O Dango from Brentford at five point eight million pounds, just zero point five percent owned. He absolutely hauled in Gameweek twenty-five with twelve points, scoring a goal and assisting at Newcastle. Five goals and five assists this season from midfield at that price is ridiculous value. Brentford face Arsenal away on Thursday, which is tough, but at under one percent ownership, he's a genuine differential who's clearly in form.
Second differential is Casemiro from Man United at five point six million pounds and two point two percent ownership. He's picked up three points against Spurs with a clean sheet, playing eighty-six minutes. Five goals and four assists this season from a defensive midfielder is excellent output. Man United face West Ham away on Tuesday, and Michael Carrick has them organized. At five point six million pounds with those numbers, he's a solid differential if you want a budget midfielder who can pop up with goals.
Captaincy pick for Gameweek twenty-six. It has to be Jurrien Timber. Ten point four expected points for the double gameweek, twelve clean sheets this season, and Arsenal's defence is the best in the league. He plays Brentford at home on Thursday after their first fixture. Captaining a defender in a double feels bold, but the numbers back it up. Alternative option is Mbeumo against West Ham if you want attacking upside.
One key tip for this gameweek. Don't go overboard on Wolves doublers. Yes, they have two fixtures, but Rob Edwards' side have been dreadful defensively. They conceded three at Chelsea and face Arsenal in that second game. The double gameweek isn't always worth it if the fixtures are poor and the team is struggling. Be selective with your doublers.
