Welcome to Who Got The Points, your daily FPL briefing. I'm Archer, and here's what you need to know in the next seven minutes to dominate Gameweek Twenty-Three.
Gameweek Twenty-Two is done and dusted, and we've got some fascinating results to dissect. Man United shocked everyone with a two-nil victory over Man City. Chelsea bounced back with a two-nil win against Brentford. Liverpool were held to a one-one draw by Burnley, while West Ham grabbed a crucial two-one win over Spurs. The deadline for Gameweek Twenty-Three is today at eleven AM, so let's get straight into what matters.
Rapid-fire news bulletin. First up, Bruno G is doubtful for Newcastle's clash with Aston Villa. He's got an ankle injury with a seventy-five percent chance of playing, but he started and played ninety minutes in Gameweek Twenty-Two's nil-nil draw with Wolves, so monitor team news closely. Second, Brentford's Kevin Schade and Thiago both started against Chelsea but couldn't deliver points. Schade managed just one point despite playing eighty-one minutes, while Thiago played the full ninety but blanked. Third, Fulham's Wilson continues his solid run with eighty-seven minutes and a clean sheet against Leeds, though he couldn't add to his attacking returns. Fourth, Man United's B.Fernandes exploded with ten points against City, including an assist and two bonus points. He now faces Arsenal on Sunday with only two point four expected points, but his form cannot be ignored. Finally, Liverpool's defensive struggles continue. Virgil managed just two points against Burnley as they conceded yet again, now sitting at twenty-nine goals conceded this season.
Let's talk transfers in. First name: Schade from Brentford. Seven point one million pounds, three point two percent ownership, and he's seeing eighty-five thousand transfers in this week. He faces Nottingham Forest at home in Gameweek Twenty-Three with a massive seven point two expected points. Despite blanking against Chelsea, he's got six goals and four assists this season across twenty-one games. Brentford have found their form, and Schade is their creative outlet. Verdict: Good buy, but monitor his minutes closely after that eighty-one-minute showing.
Second transfer in: Garner from Everton. Five point two million pounds, four point four percent ownership, with one hundred and nine thousand managers bringing him in. He's a budget enabler who keeps delivering. Four points in Gameweek Twenty-Two with ninety minutes and a clean sheet. Nine clean sheets this season for Everton under David Moyes is impressive. He faces Leeds on Monday night with seven expected points. At his price point, he's freeing up funds for premium attackers. Verdict: Essential for budget midfield slots.
Third transfer in: J.Timber from Arsenal. Six point three million pounds, twenty-eight point two percent ownership. He's attracted eighty-nine thousand transfers in despite Arsenal's defensive concerns. Five points last week with ninety minutes and a clean sheet against Forest. Ten clean sheets this season, two goals, four assists. He faces Man United on Sunday, a tough fixture, but Arsenal's schedule beyond that looks excellent. Verdict: Good buy for medium-term holds, especially with their upcoming fixtures.
Now transfers out. First sell: Virgil from Liverpool. Five point nine million pounds, twenty-two point three percent ownership, and seventy-nine thousand managers are shipping him out. The stats don't lie. Just two points against Burnley, twenty-nine goals conceded this season. Liverpool's defence under Arne Slot has been disappointing. They face Bournemouth away in Gameweek Twenty-Three, a fixture where Bournemouth have scored four times at home already this season. Three point nine expected points isn't cutting it at that price. Verdict: Sell if you need funds or have better defensive options.
Second sell: Semenyo from Man City. Seven point seven million pounds, but hang on, forty-six point two percent ownership. This is massive. He's seeing one hundred and thirty-six thousand transfers out despite two hundred and ninety-three thousand coming in. He blanked against United, playing ninety minutes with zero attacking returns. Ten goals and five assists this season is solid, but City's form is concerning. They face Wolves at home with five point one expected points. The issue? City drew with Brighton and lost to United in their last two. Verdict: Hold if you've got bigger fires to fight, but he's not essential anymore.
Third sell: Bruno G from Newcastle. Seven point three million pounds, twenty-two percent ownership. Two hundred and seventy-five thousand managers are dumping him due to that ankle injury concern. Three points last week, but the seventy-five percent chance of playing is worrying. Eight goals and five assists this season shows his quality, but Newcastle face Aston Villa who've conceded just twenty-seven goals. Five point four expected points with an injury cloud? Verdict: Sell if you need certainty, but if he's declared fit, he could be a sneaky hold.
Differential picks time. First up, Wilson from Fulham. Six million pounds, twenty-three percent ownership. Wait, that's too high for a differential. Let me pivot. Actually, Raúl from Fulham. Six point two million pounds, just two point two percent ownership. Five goals, four assists this season. He played eighty-seven minutes against Leeds with a clean sheet. Fulham face Brighton who've conceded three goals in their last match. Four point six expected points at under three percent ownership makes him a sneaky differential.
Second differential: Casemiro from Man Utd. Five point five million pounds, one point three percent ownership. Four goals, three assists this season. Three points against City playing eighty minutes. United's form is improving, and he's involved in attacking phases. Arsenal away is tough, but at this ownership, if United pull off another shock, you're laughing.
Captaincy pick for Gameweek Twenty-Three: It has to be Thiago from Brentford. Seven point two million pounds, thirty-seven point seven percent ownership, seven point six expected points against Nottingham Forest. Sixteen goals this season makes him the league's most consistent forward. Forest have conceded three goals in recent matches, and Brentford at home are dangerous. Pin that armband on Thiago.
One key tip: Don't panic-sell B.Fernandes after his ten-point haul. Arsenal away is tough, but United's momentum is real under interim boss Michael Carrick. Sometimes holding form beats chasing fixtures.
