Welcome to Who Got The Points, the FPL podcast that cuts through the noise. Here's what you need to know in the next seven minutes to dominate Gameweek Ten.
Rapid fire news bulletin. Four players sit on four yellow cards heading into Gameweek Ten, putting them one booking away from suspension. Crystal Palace defenders look appealing with Oliver Glasner's side topping the fixture ticker over the next nine gameweeks. Meanwhile, team news from the EFL Cup suggests several key players including Liam Delap and Joao Pedro could be rotated, though both remain available for weekend selection. Erling Haaland and Omari Richards also featured in midweek press conference discussions. Most importantly, Bruno Guimaraes exploded into form with ten points in Gameweek Nine, sparking massive transfer interest.
Top three transfers in. First up, Bruno Guimaraes at six point five million pounds. The Newcastle midfielder has gained fifty six thousand transfers in after his stunning ten point haul in Gameweek Nine. He scored once, collected three bonus points, and now boasts nine point two expected points for Gameweek Ten. His defensive work rate combined with attacking threat makes him essential. Verdict: Essential.
Second, Igor Thiago at six point two million pounds priced as a forward but playing striker for Brentford. He's gained over two hundred thousand transfers in despite just six point six percent ownership. Thiago scored again in Gameweek Nine, taking his season tally to six goals in nine appearances. With Brentford's favorable fixtures, he offers premium striker returns at mid tier pricing. Verdict: Good.
Third, Gabriel at six point five million pounds. The Arsenal defender gained two hundred thousand transfers in after another clean sheet bonus point haul. He's now kept six clean sheets from nine gameweeks and scored sixty eight total points. With Arsenal's defensive solidity under Mikel Arteta, Gabriel delivers consistent returns. Verdict: Essential.
Top three transfers out. First, Joao Pedro at seven point five million pounds. Over six hundred thousand managers ditched the Brighton forward after another disappointing two point return. Despite fifty two percent ownership, his form has dropped to just two points per game recently. Brighton's attacking struggles make him a priority sell. Verdict: Sell.
Second, Tijani Reijnders at five point six million pounds. Two hundred thousand transfers out tell the story as the AC Milan midfielder managed just one point in Gameweek Nine. His form has collapsed to one point seven and expected points have dropped to two point two for Gameweek Ten. Better options exist at this price point. Verdict: Sell.
Third, even Jurrien Timber saw seventeen thousand transfers out despite his solid six point return. At twenty three point four percent ownership and six point one million pounds, some managers are cashing in on his recent price rises. However, his defensive stats remain strong with five clean sheets from nine games. Verdict: Hold.
Differential picks for the brave. Matty Cash at four point six million pounds offers incredible value. The Aston Villa defender exploded for fifteen points in Gameweek Nine with a goal, clean sheet, and maximum bonus points. At just five percent ownership, he could be the differential that wins your mini league.
Ruben Dias at five point five million pounds represents a Manchester City defensive route at low ownership. Despite City's recent struggles, Pep Guardiola's side should bounce back, and Dias offers clean sheet potential with occasional attacking returns.
Now for today's defensive contribution focus. Who scored the most defensive contribution points in Gameweek Nine? Bruno Guimaraes leads the way among midfielders, combining his goal with excellent defensive work to earn maximum bonus points. Gabriel tops the defender charts with his clean sheet and defensive actions earning nine points including three bonus points. Even forwards contributed defensively, with Cash's goal and clean sheet combination delivering the highest individual defensive return.
Captaincy pick: Bruno Guimaraes offers explosive potential at low ownership. One key tip: consider doubling up on Arsenal defense with both Gabriel and Timber offering excellent value.
