Welcome to Who Got The Points? I'm Archer, and here's what you need to know in the next seven minutes. We're breaking down Gameweek Thirteen, giving you the transfer targets, the players to ditch, and the differential picks that could win you your mini-league. Let's get straight into it.
Right, rapid-fire news bulletin. First up, Leandro Trossard is flagged as doubtful with a knock but has a seventy-five percent chance of playing against West Ham. He scored and assisted in midweek, playing seventy-seven minutes against Sporting, so monitor this closely. Morgan Gibbs-White is also listed as doubtful with a knock and seventy-five percent chance of featuring. He bagged a goal against Ipswich and has decent fixtures ahead, so keep an eye on Friday's press conferences. Arsenal have West Ham at home, a fixture where they're heavily favored for clean sheets. Newcastle face West Ham after that Arsenal game, with Bruno Guimaraes providing two assists in Gameweek Twelve. And finally, Mohamed Salah blanked against Southampton, managing just two points. His price has dropped and over one hundred thousand managers have shipped him out. With Gameweek Thirteen deadline on Saturday at half one, let's talk transfers.
Top three transfers in. First, Morgan Rogers at six point nine million pounds. He's now owned by seven point nine percent of managers after two hundred and twenty thousand transfers in. Rogers scored twice against Crystal Palace, returning fifteen points including three bonus. That's three goals and two assists this season for Villa. The Verdict? Good option. Villa face Brighton away next, not the easiest fixture, but he's in red-hot form and operating as Villa's most advanced midfielder under Unai Emery. At his price, he offers genuine midfield value.
Second, Jurrien Timber at six point three million pounds. Ownership has surged to thirty point five percent with two hundred and twenty-two thousand transfers in this gameweek. He's Arsenal's attacking fullback, delivering two goals and three assists already this season. Arsenal have kept six clean sheets and face West Ham at home. Seven expected points for Gameweek Thirteen. The Verdict? Essential for many squads now. At that price with attacking returns and clean sheet potential, he's set and forget material. If you don't own him, seriously consider bringing him in.
Third, Bruno Guimaraes at six point six million pounds. Ownership sits at four percent with fifty-eight thousand transfers in. He provided two assists against West Ham in Gameweek Twelve, returning ten points with bonus. That's three goals and four assists this season. Newcastle face West Ham away and then Liverpool at home. Expected six points for Gameweek Thirteen. The Verdict? Good differential option. His ownership is still relatively low, he's on set pieces for Newcastle, and Eddie Howe's side are finding their rhythm. If you need a midfield pivot, Bruno G is worth considering.
Now, top three transfers out. First, Mohamed Salah at fourteen point two million pounds. Ownership has dropped to twenty-three point three percent with over one hundred thousand transfers out. He blanked against Southampton, returning just two points without a goal or assist. Four goals and two assists this season isn't bad, but it's well below his usual standards. Expected just five point two points for Gameweek Thirteen against Manchester City. The Verdict? This is the big decision. His price frees up massive funds, Liverpool's form has dipped, and City away is tough. If you're wildcarding or need cash for team structure, selling now makes sense. But if you're holding long-term, this could backfire when he inevitably hauls.
Second, Bukayo Saka at ten point one million pounds. Seventeen point six percent still own him but fifty-five thousand have moved him out. He blanked in Gameweek Twelve, managing just four points against Sporting without attacking returns. Three goals this season, zero assists. Arsenal face West Ham at home where he should thrive, but seven point three expected points isn't matching his price tag. The Verdict? Hold for now. West Ham at home is a fixture where Arsenal attackers should feast. One more week before considering a move unless you desperately need funds. He's still Mikel Arteta's key winger.
Third, Robert Sanchez at four point eight million pounds. Thirteen point five percent ownership with twenty-two thousand transfers out. He kept a clean sheet against Leicester, returning six points, but Chelsea's fixtures turn with a trip to Aston Villa next. Six clean sheets this season is solid, but five expected points for Gameweek Thirteen against Villa concerns me. The Verdict? Hold if he's your second keeper, but don't rush to bring him in. Chelsea's defense under Enzo Maresca has been good, but Villa away and then Southampton at home isn't worth a transfer unless you're wildcarding.
Differential picks under ten percent ownership. Bart Verbruggen at four point four million pounds and four point one percent owned. The Brighton keeper made seven saves against Bournemouth, returning seven points. Brighton face Aston Villa at home then Fulham and Leicester. At his price, he's the perfect budget enabler who can actually return points with save bonuses. Two clean sheets this season isn't spectacular, but six point three expected points for Gameweek Thirteen makes him a smart pick.
Declan Rice at six point nine million pounds and twenty-two point three percent owned. Wait, that's over ten percent. Let me pivot. Tomas Soucek at five point seven million pounds and just zero point three percent owned. West Ham face Arsenal, Newcastle, and then Leicester. He's scored twice this season and offers a super-cheap route into West Ham's attack. At five point seven million, he's a pure enabler, but West Ham have scored in eight of twelve games. Ultra-differential for those needing a cheap midfielder with occasional returns.
Captaincy pick for Gameweek Thirteen? Jurrien Timber is my choice. Arsenal at home to West Ham, where they're massive favorites. He's delivered attacking returns, clean sheets are likely, and he's playing every minute. Seven expected points from the algorithm. If you want safer, Declan Rice offers set piece threat in the same game. But Timber's the one.
One key tip. Don't get stuck chasing last week's points. Morgan Rogers scored twice, but Villa away to Brighton isn't a slam dunk. Make transfers based on fixtures over the next three gameweeks, not just Gameweek Thirteen. Arsenal, Newcastle, and Chelsea have great runs coming. Plan ahead.
