❓Top Gameweek 4 Differentials (<15%)
🇨🇴 Luis Diaz – Liverpool (£7.6m, 14.0%)
Diaz against Man Utd was clinical, with two shots, two goals and all that in only 66 minutes played. Liverpool so far this season have been devastating on the break and against a team such as Man United that lose the ball often in transition, leaving them short on numbers defensively, the outcome was never going to be positive.
Currently on a total of 32 points and all that for half the price of Haaland is unbelievable value that we just can’t ignore. Already with three goals and one assist, and with Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth and Wolves in the next three fixtures, expect all three of those totals to rise significantly.
🇵🇹 Bruno Fernandes – Man Utd (£8.4m, 12.4%)
It’s not normally optimal play to select an asset fresh off a 3-0 drubbing at home and has subsequently fallen in value(£0.1m), but this is not your run-of-the-mill, standard premier league player. Bruno Fernandes since his first season in England(2019/2020) has achieved phenomenal numbers in what has been widely considered a poor Man Utd team for over five years. Any single statistic you desire to look at he is up there. Shots on target per game, shots per game, expected assist(xA), key passes, expected goals(xG), the list goes on and on to the point where he just can’t be ignored.
In recent times whenever Man United take a sore one, they usually bounce back fairly quickly, and I expect history to repeat itself against Southampton in GW4. Southampton have already conceded five goals and haven’t played any of the big six yet! I envisage Bruno will get off the mark in the form of a double-digit haul and I have a strong sense, one of these returns will be from the penalty spot. If I’m being honest, I don’t see him not being in my own team for GW4.
🏴 Andrew Robertson- Liverpool (£6m, 6%)
I have already clearly outlined my thoughts on loading up on Liverpool assets post-international break, with the key three currently being Salah, Jota and Alexander-Arnold. But if you can’t quite stretch your budget, there is an alternative in the form of Scottish superstar, Andrew Robertson. Am I biased due to being Scottish, although I agree the answer is probably yes, that’s a strong possibility, Robertson is a great selection in his own right. 6 points in each of his opening three games and 18 points total show defensively he is strong, but let’s talk attacking numbers.
In his last two games, he had 2 shots in the box(on target), an expected goals (xG) of 0.34 and an overall positioning/heatmap that at times, looks like that of a left-winger. His next opponents are Nottingham Forest(H), Bournemouth(H), and Wolves (A), so expect all these attributes to soar, and with also being on corner kick duties, results in Robertson being a great pick in his own right. The ultimate differential might even be a Robertson, Alexander-Arnold double-up, even tinkered with this idea in my own squad.
🇫🇷 Lucas Digne – Aston Villa (£4.5m, 4.3%)
Seasoned FPL managers will know this man very well. Over the seasons and at times, he has been a great asset to own but he is more known for bringing the FPL misery than joy. Regardless, times change and he has caught my eye in the last two games, especially against Leicester.
Seven points from an assist and two bonus points show he is well involved in Aston Villa’s build-up play, often starting moves from the back and progressing to the opposition’s penalty box.
Add in stats of one key pass and one key chance created, 87% passing accuracy and 2 interceptions translates into many points. If Aston Villa can keep a clean sheet in their next three(Everton, Wolves, Ipswich) Digne is on for possibly more than one double-point haul.
🇬🇲 Yankuba Minteh – Brighton (£5.5m, 1.6%)
Minteh was the talk of the town at the beginning of the season and though general interest has subsequently cooled, it has not for me.
With a tough opening three matches including Arsenal and Man United, Minteh still totted up two assists and could have had more with 0.90 expected assists (xA) and 0.48 expected goals (xG).
He is currently shot shy, but with the next two games at home against Ipswich and Nottingham Forest, I envisage he will display what he can do against the ‘lesser’ teams. I predict Minteh will again be spoken about and if you want to be ahead of that curve, consider his inclusion.
