Welcome to Who Got The Points, your daily Fantasy Premier League briefing. I'm Archer, and here's what you need to know in the next seven minutes to crush Gameweek Twenty.
Quick news bulletin. Bruno Fernandes is doubtful for United's trip to Leeds with a hamstring injury, just twenty-five percent chance of playing. That's over one hundred and twenty-seven thousand managers shipping him out. Ethan Ampadu picked up a suspension for Leeds, ruled out until the seventh of January, missing the United fixture. And in Gameweek Nineteen, we saw Liverpool held to a goalless draw by Leeds at Anfield, while Arsenal smashed four past Aston Villa. Newcastle's form continues with three goals at Burnley, making their assets red hot right now.
Let's talk transfers in. Bruno Guimaraes is the standout move. Seven million pounds, ownership jumped to sixteen percent with over three hundred and sixteen thousand transfers in. He bagged ten points in Gameweek Nineteen with a goal and maximum bonus against Burnley. That's six goals and four assists this season, ninety-six total points already. Newcastle face Crystal Palace at home in Gameweek Twenty, then Leeds away in Twenty-One. He's averaging five point three points per game with five expected points against Palace. Verdict: essential buy if you don't own him.
Next up, Roefs at Sunderland. Just four point eight million pounds, over ten percent owned now after ninety-two thousand transfers in. Seven clean sheets this season, ninety total points from a budget keeper. He kept another clean sheet against Man City in Gameweek Nineteen, picking up seven points with the shut-out and save points. Sunderland face Spurs away in Gameweek Twenty, but then get Brentford and Crystal Palace at home. At that price, he's incredible value for a rotating keeper spot. Verdict: great budget enabler.
Jurrien Timber rounds out the transfers in. Six point four million pounds, twenty-eight percent ownership. He delivered nine points in Gameweek Nineteen with an assist and clean sheet against Villa. That's eight clean sheets, two goals, and four assists this season, ninety-five total points. Arsenal host Bournemouth next, then Liverpool away in Twenty-One. Five expected points for Gameweek Twenty. The attacking returns make him more than just a defensive asset. Verdict: essential Arsenal defender.
Transfers out time. Bruno Fernandes tops the list, nine point one million pounds, dropping from eleven point nine percent ownership. Over one hundred and twenty-seven thousand transfers out as that hamstring injury bites. He didn't feature in Gameweek Nineteen, zero minutes against Wolves. Even when fit, United's fixtures aren't great with Leeds away next. One clean sheet all season, conceded twenty-seven goals. Save that cash for better midfield options. Verdict: sell immediately if you own him.
Ekitike at Liverpool is seeing big sales. Nine point one million pounds, thirty-five percent owned but one hundred and twenty-seven thousand transfers out. Just two points in Gameweek Nineteen despite playing ninety minutes in that Liverpool clean sheet against Leeds. Eight goals and two assists sounds decent, but he blanked when it mattered. Liverpool face Fulham away next, then Arsenal in Gameweek Twenty-One. At that price, you want more consistency. Verdict: sell if you need funds elsewhere.
Robert Sanchez completes the outs. Four point nine million pounds, fourteen percent ownership, sixty-seven thousand transfers out. Chelsea conceded twice against Bournemouth in Gameweek Nineteen, another two-pointer. Eight clean sheets sounds okay, but they've shipped twenty-one goals this season. Man City away next in Gameweek Twenty is a nightmare fixture, then Fulham and Brentford at home. Chelsea's defensive issues under Enzo Maresca aren't solved. Verdict: sell for better budget options.
Differential picks under ten percent ownership. Harry Wilson at Fulham, five point eight million, just eighteen percent owned but that's too high for true differential status. Still, five goals and six assists this season, eighty-seven points. Liverpool at home in Gameweek Twenty could deliver. Callum Hudson-Odoi at Nottingham Forest, five point seven million, one percent owned. Three goals, one assist, playing regularly. Aston Villa away next could be tricky, but at one percent ownership, he's a genuine differential. And Gianluigi Donnarumma at Man City, five point seven million, ten percent owned. Eight clean sheets, sixty-six points. Chelsea at home in Gameweek Twenty, then Brighton away. City's defense is improving.
Captaincy for Gameweek Twenty? Bukayo Saka at ten point three million faces Bournemouth at the Emirates. Seven point two expected points, twenty-one percent ownership. Four goals and six assists this season, he got an assist and clean sheet against Villa. Arsenal at home should dominate Bournemouth. Saka's your safe captain pick.
One key tip: Bruno Guimaraes is the priority transfer this week. Newcastle's fixtures are excellent, his form is peak, and at seven million he's a bargain. Don't overthink this one.
