Newcastle United Vs Hull City FPL: Who Hauled And What It Means
The call — Newcastle 2-1 Hull City — Hall does it all again Lewis Hall scored at St James' Park on 19 September. He played 90 minutes, hit the defensive-contribution mark, took two bonus and returned 12 points. Newcastle beat Hull City 2-1 in GW5.
Hall costs £5.2m. About 1.5 in 10 managers own him. The clean sheet did not hold — Cho came off the bench and scored inside 27 minutes for Hull — and Hall still cleared 12 points on a night his defence conceded. A goal, bonus and the contribution floor in one match. That is the return owners bought him for.
Joe Willock scored too. He played 86 minutes, took maximum bonus and returned 10 at £5.0m. Hardly anyone owns him — about 1 in 200. One goal is one match. We report it; we do not project it. Harvey Barnes supplied both assists, played 90 and returned 9 at £6.1m, owned by about half of 1 in 10.
Now the line most readers came for. Yoane Wissa blanked. He played all 90 minutes, registered nothing and returned 0 points at £6.2m, with about 2 in 10 managers holding him. A blank on full minutes is a blank, not a benching. The facts do not force a sale.
Elsewhere: Ajayi played 90 for Hull and returned 1 point at £4.2m — about 1.5 in 10 own him. Tzolakis made three saves, took a yellow and still returned 6 points at £4.6m despite conceding twice. Cho's goal came in 27 minutes off the bench; nobody owns him, and 27 minutes is 27 minutes.
The calls, in order. Hall owners hold — 12 points on a night without a clean sheet is the case made for you, and at £5.2m non-owners have a buy on the table. Wissa owners hold — he started, he finished, he blanked. Willock and Cho go on the watchlist, not the team sheet: one goal each, and one of them played under half an hour. Barnes is the move for anyone wanting Newcastle's attack under £6.5m.
Buy Hall. Hold Wissa. Watch the rest.
