Your daily dose of Premier League insights - powered by data, driven by AI. From top transfer tips to captain picks, we break it all down in under 10 minutes.
Welcome to Who Got The Points? I'm Archer, and here's what you need to know in the next seven minutes. Gameweek Fourteen is done and dusted, and we're now building our teams for Gameweek Fifteen with the deadline hitting Saturday morning at eleven AM. Today we're covering the essential transfers, the key injury news, and the captain you need to nail for this weekend. Let's dive straight in.
Quick news bulletin. First up, suspension watch. Twenty-one players are sitting on four yellow cards and one booking away from a ban. That includes some big names you need to monitor closely over the coming weeks. Second, Matthijs de Ligt missed Manchester United's one-one draw with West Ham completely through injury. The extent is unclear, but United's defence remains a rotation risk under Ruben Amorim anyway. Third, Emi Martinez picked up an injury concern for Aston Villa in their seven-goal thriller at Brighton. He played the full ninety but Villa face Arsenal on Saturday lunchtime, so monitor the team news closely. Fourth, Cole Palmer returned to action for Chelsea in their three-one defeat at Leeds, getting some minutes after injury. He remains a watch for upcoming gameweeks. And finally, Morgan Gibbs-White kept a clean sheet as Nottingham Forest won one-nil at Wolves. Forest's defensive structure under Ange Postecoglou continues to impress.
Now let's talk transfers. Your top three transfers IN for Gameweek Fifteen.
Number one is Mikel Merino from Arsenal. He's six million pounds and just two point three percent owned. Merino exploded in Gameweek Fourteen with thirteen points, scoring and assisting in Arsenal's two-nil win over Brentford. He started and played the full ninety minutes, grabbing two bonus points as well. The Spaniard now has three goals and three assists this season, and he's nailed in Mikel Arteta's midfield. With Arsenal facing Aston Villa away on Saturday lunchtime, he's got nine expected points. At six million pounds, he's a superb mid-price midfielder who offers genuine goal threat from central areas. Verdict: Good option, especially if you need Arsenal coverage without breaking the bank.
Number two is Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle. Six point eight million pounds, seven point four percent owned, and over two hundred thousand transfers in this week. Bruno scored in Newcastle's two-two draw with Spurs, coming off at half-time but banking seven points with a goal and bonus. He's got four goals and four assists this season, delivering five point five points per game. Newcastle face Burnley at home in Gameweek Fifteen, a fixture with serious haul potential. Bruno is the creative heartbeat of Eddie Howe's side and at six point eight million, he's cheaper than premium midfielders but delivering similar output. Verdict: Essential if you can afford him. Newcastle's fixtures are strong and Bruno is their main man.
Number three is Dean Henderson from Crystal Palace. Five point one million pounds, eight point eight percent owned. Henderson kept his seventh clean sheet of the season in Palace's one-nil win at Burnley, making key saves to secure the shutout. He's averaging four point three points per game and has thirty-three saves this season. Palace face Fulham away on Sunday, then have Manchester City next. Henderson is the budget goalkeeper delivering consistent returns, and at five point one million, he frees up funds elsewhere. Verdict: Good option if you need a budget keeper who plays every week and delivers clean sheets.
Now your top three transfers OUT.
Number one is Bruno Fernandes from Manchester United. Nine million pounds, nineteen percent owned. Bruno managed just four points in the one-one draw with West Ham, playing the full ninety without returns. He's delivering four point eight points per game, which isn't good enough for nine million pounds. United face Wolves away on Monday night, but their attack looks disjointed under Ruben Amorim's system. With premium midfielders like Salah and Palmer available, Bruno isn't justifying his price tag. Verdict: Sell. There are better options at this price point.
Number two is Eberechi Eze, who's now at Arsenal. Seven point eight million pounds, nineteen point eight percent owned, and over seventy thousand transfers out. Eze managed just one point in Gameweek Fourteen, playing only twenty-nine minutes as a substitute in Arsenal's win over Brentford. His move to Arsenal has killed his minutes and attacking threat. At seven point eight million, you're paying premium money for bench cameos. He's got seven point two expected points for Gameweek Fifteen, but that assumes he starts, which looks unlikely. Verdict: Sell immediately. He's deadweight at that price.
Number three is Morgan Gibbs-White from Nottingham Forest. Seven point three million pounds, three point five percent owned, and over twenty thousand transfers out. Gibbs-White played the full ninety in Forest's one-nil win at Wolves but delivered just three points from the clean sheet. He's averaging three point eight points per game and has just three goals and one assist all season. At seven point three million, he's expensive for a midfielder who isn't producing attacking returns. Forest face Everton away in Gameweek Fifteen, and while their defence is solid, Gibbs-White isn't offering enough in FPL. Verdict: Sell. Use those funds on a more explosive midfielder.
Differential picks. Under ten percent owned players who could haul.
First, Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa. Six point nine million pounds, nine point six percent owned. Rogers assisted in Villa's four-three win at Brighton, playing the full ninety and grabbing a bonus point. He's got three goals and three assists this season and is Villa's form midfielder. They face Arsenal away on Saturday, a tough fixture, but Rogers is central to everything Villa create. At six point nine million, he's a great differential who could explode in their upcoming fixtures.
Second, Keane Lewis-Potter from Brentford. Six million pounds, one percent owned. He's delivered four point five points per game this season with three goals and four assists. Brentford face Spurs away on Saturday. At just six million pounds and one percent owned, he's the ultimate differential for those chasing in mini-leagues.
Captaincy pick for Gameweek Fifteen: Mohamed Salah against Leeds away. Liverpool have been relentless, and Salah is the most captained player in the game for good reason. Leeds is a fixture where he could absolutely explode.
One key tip: use both your free transfers this week if you have them. With fixture swings and injuries piling up, reshaping your squad now sets you up for the busy festive period ahead.
