Brighton & Hove Albion Vs Crystal Palace FPL: Who Hauled And What It Means
The call — Brighton 5-0 Crystal Palace: four hauls, one clean sheet, and the template paid Brighton put five past Palace at the American Express Stadium on 18 October. The clean sheet held. Four Brighton players hauled double figures. Ayari led the scoring with 13 points — a goal, an assist and two bonus in 80 minutes.
What has not being with FFIQ cost you this season?

He costs £5.4m and is owned by 0.4% of managers. Kostoulas took 12: a goal, an assist and maximum bonus in 70 minutes, at £5.7m and owned by 9.2% of managers. Boscagli (£4.5m, owned by 0.4% of managers) and Vuskovic (£5.1m, owned by 5.1% of managers) both returned 11 — an assist each on top of the clean sheet.
For the template, the news is plain. De Cuyper, owned by 40.2% of managers at £5.2m, banked 6 points from the shutout. Groß, owned by 44.4% of managers, took 5 — an assist, minus a yellow card. Both delivered. Neither hauled.
Gomez scored for 8 points at £5.0m, owned by 3.6% of managers. Hinshelwood also scored — then came off after 19 minutes with 6 points. That is a fact to watch before the next deadline. Georginio and Yalcouyé played 19 and 9 minutes respectively and returned 1 point each. The substitutes who came on late did not qualify for clean-sheet points.
On the Palace side, nothing to report in returns. Kamada played 80 minutes, took a yellow and finished on 1 point.
What this means for the deadline. One match is one match. Ayari and Boscagli are owned by 0.4% of managers for a reason: this was their statement game, not a body of work. Kostoulas, at 9.2% of managers and 70 minutes before his substitution, has the returns and the ownership trend behind him, but a single 5-0 does not settle a transfer. We will not call a buy off one scoreline.
The call: if you own De Cuyper or Groß, hold — both played 90 and 70 minutes, both returned, both start. If you own Kostoulas, start him. If you own none of them, do nothing this week. Watch Hinshelwood's status before you touch any Brighton midfielder.
