FPL Gameweek 6 Results: Saturday's Top Scores And Talking Points
The call — GW6 round-up: Henderson 18, Chelsea put five past Bournemouth Sanchez picked out no one — Henderson did. Two goals, one assist, all three bonus points, 90 minutes. 18 points in Chelsea's 5-1 win over Bournemouth on 10 October. He was the day's best captain in hindsight, and it was not close.

Chelsea supplied three of the day's top ten scorers. João Pedro scored twice in 71 minutes for 12 points. Rogers added a goal and 9. No clean sheet at the back, but the attack covered it. If you own any of the three, they played, they returned, they stay in your side. If you own none, Henderson sits top of the list the facts produced this weekend.
Brighton won 2-0 at the Stadium of Light. De Cuyper scored, took three bonus and came off on 67 minutes — past the hour, so the clean sheet paid. 15 points. A defender who scores and keeps them out at the other end is the full package in one card. He goes nowhere from any squad that holds him.
Ipswich beat Fulham 2-1 at Portman Road and both goals came from defenders. O'Shea: goal, three bonus, 11 points. Ouattara: goal, two bonus, 10 points. Both played 90. No clean sheet, so those hauls were attacking returns from the back line — note it, but one match is one match.
Aston Villa drew 2-2 with Brentford at Villa Park. Jackson scored and took maximum bonus for 9. McGinn scored for 9. Both played the full match.
Arsenal beat Leeds 2-1 at the Emirates. Bruno G. scored and took three bonus — in 27 minutes. 9 points. The return is real. The minutes are the fact that matters. 27 is not a starter's shift, and a bench player's points are points you cannot plan around.
Man Utd drew 1-1 with Spurs at Old Trafford. Cunha played 90, assisted, and took three bonus for 10. He delivered without a goal. That is a player in the middle of things.
The calls the day forces: Henderson starts every week he is on the pitch — own him or explain why not. De Cuyper is a hold and a start. Bruno G. stays on watch until the minutes say otherwise — do not buy 27 minutes. And whoever you captained instead of a Chelsea midfielder on 10 October, the scoreboard has already told you how that went.
