Welcome to Who Got The Points? I'm your host, and here's what you need to know in the next seven minutes. Gameweek Ten is done and dusted, and we're now preparing for Gameweek Eleven with the deadline this Saturday at eleven o'clock. We've got surprise haulers, transfer targets, and crucial captain calls to make. Let's dive straight in. First up, the rapid fire news bulletin. Injury news is thankfully light heading into Gameweek Eleven. Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyokeres, and Mohammed Kudus are all being monitored but expected to be available for the weekend. Newcastle's Eddie Howe has given Isak the green light after a minor knock. No suspensions to worry about this week, which is rare and welcome news. The big fixture news is that Crystal Palace's EFL Cup quarter final has been moved to Tuesday the twenty third of December, but importantly, this means no Blank Gameweek Seventeen for FPL, so you can plan your transfers without worrying about missing fixtures. Keep an eye on Friday's press conferences for late team news, but for now, it's looking like a clean bill of health across most squads. Chelsea have a kind fixture against struggling Everton at home, while Arsenal host Nottingham Forest in what could be a high scoring affair. Now let's talk transfers in. Three players you should be considering. First up, Casemiro from Manchester United at five point five million pounds. Ownership is just zero point seven percent, but after Gameweek Ten's performance, that's set to explode. The Brazilian started and played the full ninety minutes, scored a goal, grabbed three bonus points, and returned twelve points. He's now got three goals and two assists this season, averaging four point seven points per game. With United's fixtures improving and Casemiro operating in an advanced role under Ruben Amorim, he's a budget midfield gem. Verdict? Good option for those needing funds elsewhere. Next, Reece James from Chelsea at five point five million pounds. Ownership sits at seven point nine percent and rising fast. James started and played ninety minutes in Gameweek Ten, kept a clean sheet, earned a bonus point for seven points total. He's now got three clean sheets, one goal, and three assists this season. Chelsea have kept clean sheets in four of their last six matches, and with Enzo Maresca's side in form and facing Everton at home, James offers attacking returns and defensive stability. At five point five million, he's exceptional value. Verdict? Essential for any defence looking for an upgrade. Third, Ryan Sessegnon from Fulham at five point four million pounds. Ownership is microscopic at zero point four percent, making him a genuine differential. The winger exploded in Gameweek Ten, starting and playing ninety minutes, scoring a goal, providing an assist, keeping a clean sheet, and grabbing three bonus points for a massive fourteen point haul. He's got two goals and two assists this season. Fulham under Marco Silva have been solid defensively with two clean sheets in their last four. At five point four million, Sessegnon is a steal if he keeps this form. Verdict? Good punt for those chasing rank or needing a budget enabler with upside. Now the transfers out. Three players you should be moving on from. First, Mohamed Salah from Liverpool at fourteen point two million pounds. Yes, you heard that right. Ownership is still twenty four point nine percent, but he's hemorrhaging managers with forty six thousand transfers out in Gameweek Ten. Salah scored and grabbed two bonus points for ten points, which sounds fine, but at fourteen point two million, you're paying premium money for inconsistent returns. He's averaging five point two points per game. Liverpool face Aston Villa away, a tough fixture, and with his price dropping three times recently, the value is evaporating. You can reinvest that money into two superior options. Verdict? Sell if you need funds for James and other premiums. Second, Eberechi Eze from Arsenal at seven point six million pounds. Wait, Eze plays for Arsenal in this data? Assuming this is correct, ownership stands at fourteen point one percent but he's bleeding managers with fifty two thousand transfers out. Eze managed just three points in Gameweek Ten despite starting and playing seventy one minutes with a clean sheet. One goal and three assists all season for seven point six million is poor value. He's averaging four point three points per game. There are better midfield options at lower prices. Verdict? Sell and upgrade elsewhere. Third, Bryan Mbeumo from Manchester United at eight point four million pounds. Another data quirk here, but let's roll with it. Ownership is massive at twenty eight point six percent, making him extremely popular. However, he blanked in Gameweek Ten with just two points despite playing ninety minutes. Mbeumo has four goals and one assist this season, which is decent, but at eight point four million after four price rises, he's overpriced. With United's fixtures mixed and better options available in that price bracket, it's time to reassess. Verdict? Hold for now if you own him, but don't buy in at this inflated price. Differential picks for the brave. Under ten percent ownership only. First, Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle at six point six million pounds and three point seven percent ownership. The Brazilian assisted in Gameweek Ten, playing the full ninety minutes. Three goals and two assists this season, averaging five point one points per game. Newcastle face Nottingham Forest at home, and Bruno is their creative heartbeat. At six point six million with low ownership, he's a captain differential who could haul. Second, Marcus Tavernier from Bournemouth at five point five million pounds and one point six percent ownership. Five clean sheets this season show Bournemouth's defensive improvement under Andoni Iraola. Two goals and one assist, averaging four point five points per game. Bournemouth have favourable fixtures, and Tavernier offers midfield value with defensive security. Third, Joao Palhinha from Spurs at five point five million pounds and one point seven percent ownership. Two goals and one assist, three clean sheets, averaging four point eight points per game. Under Thomas Frank... wait, that's Brentford's manager. Actually, Spurs manager is in the data provided. Palhinha is a defensive mid who's been pushing forward more, and at five point five million with Spurs fixtures decent, he's worth a punt. Captaincy for Gameweek Eleven? Reece James against Everton at home. Chelsea are flying, Everton are struggling, and James has goal threat, assist potential, and clean sheet odds. Differential pick who could separate you from the pack. One key tip: Don't panic sell Mohamed Salah if you can afford to hold him one more week. Liverpool's fixtures improve after Villa, and knee jerking could cost you long term. But if you need the funds, pull the trigger without hesitation.
