Here's what you need to know in the next seven minutes to nail your Gameweek twenty-eight transfers before that Friday deadline. Let's go.
Right, the news first. Gyökeres bagged a brace for Arsenal in the four-one demolition of Spurs on Sunday, picking up thirteen points and making a strong case for premium forward investment. Meanwhile, there are injury concerns coming out of the Brentford camp after Kayode picked up a knock in their two-nil loss to Brighton, so keep an eye on his availability before making any moves involving Brentford assets. Semenyo is in DefCon territory at Bournemouth, which backs up our caution there. O'Reilly is reportedly deserving of more minutes at Manchester City after another impressive showing, and Ruben Dias was withdrawn at half-time against Newcastle, which is worth monitoring ahead of Gameweek twenty-eight. Finally, Mukiele's injury situation at Fulham is unclear, so hold off on bringing in any Fulham defenders until we get clarity.
Now let's get into transfers. Here are your top three ins for Gameweek twenty-eight.
First up, Gyökeres at Arsenal, priced at eight point eight million pounds, with eleven point nine percent ownership. He scored two goals and earned thirteen points in Gameweek twenty-seven, taking his season tally to ten goals. Arsenal face Chelsea at home in Gameweek twenty-eight, a fixture that looks juicy given Chelsea's inconsistency on the road. With a form rating of six point zero and six point five expected points next gameweek, the underlying numbers back up what we're seeing on the pitch. He's not a premium you'll regret. Verdict: Essential. Get him in.
Second, Wilson at Fulham, five point nine million pounds, twenty percent ownership. He registered an assist in Gameweek twenty-seven as Fulham put three past Sunderland, and he now has eight goals and seven assists this season. Fulham host Spurs on Sunday in Gameweek twenty-eight, which is a very favourable matchup. Nearly forty thousand managers brought him in this gameweek alone. With four point eight expected points and elite value at that price point, the bandwagon is moving fast. Verdict: Good. Get him in before the price rises further.
Third, Ekitiké at Liverpool, eight point nine million pounds, twenty-six point four percent ownership. He only managed two points in Gameweek twenty-seven with a clean sheet against Nottingham Forest but no goal involvement. However, Liverpool host West Ham at home in Gameweek twenty-eight, and the fixture difficulty rating favours Arne Slot's side heavily. Ten goals this season shows the underlying quality. Forty thousand transfers in this week signal massive manager confidence. Verdict: Good. Liverpool's home record makes this hard to ignore.
Now your top three transfers out.
Gabriel at Arsenal, seven point one million pounds, forty-two point nine percent ownership. He blanked in Gameweek twenty-seven with a two-point return against Spurs, and now faces Chelsea at home in Gameweek twenty-eight, which is a far tougher defensive test. Nearly nineteen thousand managers are already heading for the exit. At seven point one million pounds, there are cheaper and better value defensive options right now. Verdict: Sell. Free up that cash.
João Pedro at Chelsea, seven point seven million pounds, forty-seven point seven percent ownership. He still returned seven points in Gameweek twenty-seven but the volume of transfers out, over forty-eight thousand, tells a story. Chelsea travel to Arsenal in Gameweek twenty-eight, which is the toughest possible away fixture in the division. Form is still strong but the timing of this fixture is brutal. Verdict: Sell or move to the bench this week if you're keeping him.
Raúl at Fulham, six point one million pounds, one point eight percent ownership. He scored twice in Gameweek twenty-seven, bagging eleven points, but with a price drop of four and Fulham facing Spurs away, the value proposition is uncertain. At under two percent ownership, he's clearly not trusted widely, and with Mukiele's injury complicating Fulham's defensive shape, this might be the right time to cash in on that lovely return. Verdict: Hold if you own him, but do not buy.
Now for your differentials. Under ten percent ownership only.
Welbeck at Brighton, six point one million pounds, three point six percent ownership. He started and played ninety minutes in Gameweek twenty-seven, scoring and earning nine points including three bonus. Brighton host Nottingham Forest in Gameweek twenty-eight and have decent form. At six point one million pounds with single-digit ownership, he's an absolute steal if he stays fit. Nine goals this season from a forward at that price is remarkable value.
Raúl we've covered, so let's pivot to Strand Larsen at Crystal Palace, six point two million pounds, two point five percent ownership. He blanked in Gameweek twenty-seven but played the full ninety minutes and Crystal Palace secured a one-nil win over Wolves. Palace travel to Man Utd in Gameweek twenty-eight where they're actually rated as favourites in the fixture difficulty data. Three goals and an assist this season is modest, but with low ownership and a potentially winnable fixture, he's one to speculate on.
Captaincy pick for Gameweek twenty-eight. Gyökeres is your captain. Arsenal at home against Chelsea, elite form, brace in Gameweek twenty-seven, thirteen points already banked, and six point five expected points projected for this one. The deadline is Friday the twenty-seventh of February at half past six in the evening, so do not sleep on this. Get your captain locked in early.
