Gameweek 2 ; The scout results

Did you beat the scout ? #FPL #GW2

When is the next best opportunity to activate the TC chip ?

GW3 : Haaland vs COV (H)
GW4 : Pedro vs HUL (H)
GW7 : Haaland vs IPS (H)
GW10 : Saka vs HUL (H)

Few days ago Thierno Barry was the best £5.5m FWD in FPL!

Why?
• He is priced at £5.5m, still only about 1–3.5% owned, and has 10 FPL points from two starts
• GW1 vs Palace (H): started, 78 mins, headed the 2-0 goal from Ndiaye’s cross. 8 pts (goal + CS + 2 bonus). 2 shots, 0.45 xG.
• Carabao Cup vs Preston: started, hat-trick + assist.
• GW2 vs Bournemouth (A): started, 69–70 mins, blanked for 2 pts but created a huge chance pile: 3 shots (2 on target), 1.42 xG = “unlucky — 1.48 xG and no return.”
• Pre-season: 3 goals + 1 assist
• Last season he scored 8 goals from 8.1 xG (21.1% conversion, almost Haaland’s rate) but only started 21 games and took until his 15th PL appearance to score.

He looked like the cheap FWD we all wanted until Moyes signed Balogun from Monaco for £50m ! 💀

👉 If you have him , keep him! Balogun won't start right away ! and pray he remains a starter for those GW5 (IPS) & GW6 (HUL) fixtures!

FPL Top xGI Underperformers after 2 GWs!

• Thiago : 7 shots ; 2 on target ; 1.89 xG & 3 big chances without scoring! Last chance vs SUN (H) [52% chance of scoring vs SUN (H) in GW3]
👉 KEEP

• Isak : 7 shots ; 3 on target & 3 big chances ; 1 goal scored and maybe that's exactly what he needs to rediscover his Newcastle days form! [52% chance of scoring vs IPS (A) in GW3]
👉 KEEP

• Barry : His is EVE only FWD , without Ndaiye in the team , he maybe the new pen taker! MUN , IPS & HUL next!
👉 BUY

• Igor Jesus : 35% chance of scoring against Spurs who shipped 5 goals in 2 matches!
👉 KEEP ; last chance

How many of these do you own? What are your plans for them ?

Are you starting all your Chelsea attackers vs the best defence in the world ?

Triple Captain Haaland vs COV (H) : Pros & Cons

✅ Best single fixture on paper : Promoted side at Home
✅ Opponent : Coventry’s start: Lost both games (0-3 Arsenal, 0-1 Hull).
✅ Record vs newly promtoed teams : 9.4 pts per match
✅ Form : Brace in GW2
✅ Fully rested : No midweek for him before this match; full week’s rest after Palace.
✅ 75% chance of scoring in GW3

❌ Better opportunities may come later : IPS (H) in GW7
❌ City have midweek Europe after this. Porto in the Champions League is days later. Early subs are possible even if he starts
❌ Coventry are not a total collapse : 26 shots conc (9th) ; 2.55 xGC (6th)

Gameweek 3 Fun Facts by the amazing Tom Hadley :

• Chelsea have failed to beat in Arsenal 5 years (all comps).

• The Chelsea striker also hasn’t managed a goal or assist in the last 10 meetings between the sides (all comps).

• Morgan Gibbs-White has an incredible record of getting attacking returns in successive starts.

Over the past two seasons, the amount of times MGW had one at least one follow up return:

2024/25: 86%
2025/26: 71%

(To explain a bit more, say MGW blanks in 3 games straight but finally gets a return in the fourth game, the likeliness of a follow up return to that is high)

• The away side is unbeaten in 4 games between Everton and Man United.

• Harry Maguire has hit DEFCON in 4 of his last 5 games against Everton

• Dewsbury-Hall hit DEFCON in both fixtures last season.

• Newcastle have never kept a CS at home to Bournemouth in the premier league

• 3 penalties were awarded across the Brentford vs Sunderland clashes last season. Only one was scored (Le Fee)

Both Le Fee and Schade missed penalties.

• Igor Thiago scored in both fixtures vs Sunderland last season, including a brace at home.

• The away side is unbeaten in 11 matches between Fulham and Crystal Palace.

🚨 Antoine Semenyo is now seen as the player likeliest to operate as #ManCity’s centre-forward when Erling Haaland is not on the pitch. [Rich Jolly]
