Takeaways

  • 😀 Trent Alexander-Arnold is a key consideration for Gameweek 16, but his value at 7 million is up for debate due to inconsistent defensive returns from most teams outside of Arsenal and Liverpool.
  • 😀 Comparing Liverpool defenders, Trent is more expensive than Virgil Van Dijk and Joe Gomez, but he offers greater attacking potential and bonus points, making him more valuable despite his higher price tag.
  • 😀 Joe Gomez, priced at 4.9 million, is a budget-friendly option but comes with a rotation risk, making him a last resort for managers looking for a Liverpool defender.
  • 😀 Virgil Van Dijk offers decent coverage at a cheaper price than Trent, with strong underlying numbers and guaranteed minutes, making him a solid alternative if you can't afford Trent.
  • 😀 Alexander Isak is a better forward option than Nicholas Jackson due to fewer rotation risks and a higher chance of consistent minutes, especially with his strong form this season.
  • 😀 Nicholas Jackson, despite leading in XG per 90 minutes, faces a risk of rotation due to his yellow card count and early substitutions, making him a less reliable option compared to Isak.
  • 😀 Gameweek 16 presents favorable fixtures for both Alexander Isak (Leicester at home) and Nicholas Jackson (Brentford at home), but Isak is the preferred pick for most FPL managers.
  • 😀 If looking for a budget midfielder, Enzo Fernandez is emerging as a strong option at 4.9 million, with an increase in attacking numbers and consistent minutes under the new manager at Chelsea.
  • 😀 Amad Diallo could be a promising budget midfielder for Manchester United, but his lack of guaranteed starts and rotation risk makes him a less reliable option for Gameweek 16.
  • 😀 For managers considering premium picks, Mo Salah is the standout captain choice for Gameweek 16, with a home fixture against Fulham, while Cole Palmer is a great differential pick after his recent form.

Q & A

  • Is Trent Alexander-Arnold worth the 7 million price tag in FPL?

    -Trent's value is debated due to the lack of consistent returns from defenses in general. Although he has potential for attacking returns (like free-kicks and assists), his price may not always justify the investment, especially with rotation risks and other cheaper options like Virgil Van Dijk offering similar coverage.

  • Should I prioritize Trent Alexander-Arnold or Virgil Van Dijk in my FPL team?

    -If you're unable to afford Trent, Virgil Van Dijk is a good alternative. He is cheaper, provides solid defensive returns, and is likely to play more consistently. However, Trent's attacking potential, particularly from open play, could still make him the better choice if you can fit him into your budget.

  • What are the risks of selecting Joe Gomez in FPL?

    -Joe Gomez is cheaper than both Trent and Van Dijk, but he carries a rotation risk due to his limited playing time this season. He may be a short-term option if Liverpool's defense is a priority, but there’s uncertainty in his minutes, especially if other players, like Konaté, are available.

  • Which forward option is better for my FPL team: Alexander Isak or Nicholas Jackson?

    -Alexander Isak is the safer option. He has been consistently performing well, even with some potential shifts in his position, while Nicholas Jackson presents more rotation risk, particularly with his yellow card suspension threat and early substitutions.

  • How do the upcoming fixtures affect the decision between Isak and Jackson?

    -Isak has favorable fixtures like Leicester and Villa at home, which increases his chances of returns. Jackson also has good fixtures, but his rotation risk and suspension threat might make Isak a more reliable choice over the next few weeks.

  • What should I do with Bryan Mbeumo in my FPL team?

    -Bryan Mbeumo has been underperforming away from home, and with difficult fixtures ahead for Brentford, it might be time to move him out. With his price dropping, you can reallocate the funds to upgrade other areas in your team.

  • How has Enzo Fernandes' role changed recently, and should he be considered in FPL?

    -Enzo Fernandes has seen a rise in his attacking involvement under the new manager, putting up impressive numbers in terms of expected goals and assists. At 4.9 million, he's a great budget option, especially with Chelsea's upcoming fixtures and his guaranteed minutes.

  • Is Amad Diallo a viable FPL option?

    -Amad Diallo has shown potential recently, but there’s uncertainty regarding his starting role at Manchester United. With competition for spots in United's attack, he could be a riskier pick compared to more consistent players.

  • Is Moussa Diaby still a reliable FPL option despite a dip in form?

    -Moussa Diaby has been one of the top performers this season, but recent drops in his numbers may raise some concerns. However, with good fixtures ahead, he can still be a reliable option, especially if you need a minutes-heavy player.

  • Who is the best budget midfielder for Gameweek 16?

    -Enzo Fernandes seems to be the best budget midfielder for Gameweek 16. He offers good underlying stats and is guaranteed minutes in Chelsea's upcoming fixtures. His creativity and potential for attacking returns at a low price make him a solid pick.
