Price changes disrupt the FPL landscape
Today saw a significant change for Fantasy Premier League managers: a whopping 40 price changes across the board. These fluctuations can reshape strategies and force us to make difficult decisions ahead of the next game week. Let’s analyze the most notable promotions and relegations.
Price increases 📈
Smith Rowe (Fulham, midfielder, £5.6m) The former Arsenal man has hit the ground running at Fulham, now priced at £5.6m. Smith Rowe has picked up 13 points in his first two games, including 10 against Leicester, and with favourable games against Ipswich and West Ham coming up, he could be a smart choice for FPL managers.
Robinson (Fulham, Defender, £4.6m) Antonee Robinson’s price has risen to £4.6m following a solid start to the season. The left-back secured 7 points in Fulham’s 2-1 win over Leicester, giving him a total of 9 points for the season. Like teammate Smith Rowe, Robinson has a number of games to play in the coming weeks.
De Bruyne (Man City, Midfielder, £9.6m) The Belgian maestro has wasted no time in reminding FPL managers of his value, which has risen to £9.6m. De Bruyne followed up a 3-point performance against Chelsea with an outstanding 12-point display in City’s 4-1 win over Ipswich. With 15 points already to his name, he looks set to be an important player once again.
Price drops 📉
Foden (Man City, midfielder, £9.4m) Phil Foden’s price has dropped to £9.4m following a slow start to the season. The England international picked up just 1 point in 45 minutes against Chelsea and did not play in City’s win over Ipswich. Managers will be watching closely to see if he can regain his starting place.
Nkunku (Chelsea, midfielder, £6.4m) Chelsea’s new signing has dropped to £6.4m after a quiet start to his Premier League career. Nkunku has picked up just 2 points in his first two appearances and played just 65 minutes in total. With Chelsea facing Crystal Palace next, he will be hoping for more action.
Walker (Man City, defender, £5.4m) Kyle Walker’s price has dropped to £5.4m after two unused appearances as a substitute. The right-back has not played a single minute in City’s opening matches, leaving FPL managers questioning his place in Pep Guardiola’s plans.
Mykolenko (Everton, Defender, £4.4m) Vitaliy Mykolenko has dropped to £4.4m following Everton’s poor start to the season. The Ukrainian has picked up just 1 point in two games, with the Toffees conceding 7 goals in that time. Everton’s upcoming fixtures look a mixed bag, with a home game against Bournemouth followed by away games at Aston Villa and Leicester.
Promoted and relegated teams with low ownership
Among the less popular options is Chelsea’s Noni Madueke, whose salary has risen to £6.5m despite being owned by only 4.2% of managers.
On the other hand, several low-ownership players have seen their prices drop: – Aké (Man City, defender) to £5.4m – Kulusevski (Spurs, midfielder) to £6.4m – J. Murphy (Newcastle, midfielder) to £5.4m – McTominay (Man Utd, midfielder) to £4.9m – Summerville (West Ham, midfielder) to £5.9m – McNeil (Everton, midfielder) to £5.4m – Petrović (Chelsea, goalkeeper) to £4.4m – Zouma (West Ham, defender) to £4.4m – Disasi (Chelsea, defender) to £4.4m – Kamada (Crystal Palace, midfielder) to £5.4m – A. Doucoure (Everton, midfielder) to £5.4m – Jorginho (Arsenal, midfielder) to £4.9m – I.Sarr (Crystal Palace, midfielder) to £5.9m – Reguilón (Spurs, defender) to £4.4m – Dewsbury-Hall (Chelsea, midfielder) to £5.9m – Tosin (Chelsea, defender) to £4.4m – Daka (Leicester, striker) to £4.9m – Dragusin (Spurs, defender) to £4.4m – Sarabia (Wolves, midfielder) to £5.4m – Buendia (Aston Villa, midfielder) to £5.4m – Jaden (Aston Villa, midfielder) to £5.4m – Henry (Brentford, defender) at £4.4m – Chukwuemeka (Chelsea, midfielder) at £4.9m – Ndiaye (Everton, striker) at £5.4m – Burns (Ipswich, midfielder) at £4.9m
