FPL Team News — Injuries, Flags & The Latest FPL News, Gameweek 6
● Updated for Gameweek 6 — 08:01 UTC, 5 October 2026
FPL team news for every club: injuries, suspensions, flags and expected minutes, every line timestamped — so you always know how fresh the news behind your transfer is. The latest FPL news, updated through the week as it lands.
The call — GW6 team news: fourteen flags, all at 75% Fourteen players carry a 75% flag into Gameweek 6. Not one is ruled out. The newest entry is Tzolis — FPL logged a hamstring problem at Arsenal on 2 October, 75% chance of playing. He is owned by about 1 in 10 at £6.3m.
FPL Gameweek 6: Injuries & News Update
The flags that move the most teams:
Palmer (CHE, £9.7m). Muscular injury, logged 21 September. Owned by about 1 in 4 — the biggest ownership on this list. The flag is now almost two weeks old and has not been upgraded to an exit.
Isak (LIV, £9.1m). Thigh injury, logged 27 September. Owned by about 2 in 10. His team-mate Gakpo (£7.2m, about 1 in 10) carries an ankle flag from the same weekend. Both sit at 75%.
Semenyo (MCI, £8.4m). Ankle injury, logged 24 September. Owned by about 1.5 in 10. His club-mate O'Reilly (£6.3m, about 1 in 10) was flagged 1 October with an unspecified issue.
Arsenal count four flags. Tzolis, Havertz (hamstring, 24 September), Rice (unspecified, 21 September) and White (groin, 20 September). All at 75%.
The rest: Mykolenko (EVE, leg, 1 October), Van Hecke (TOT, foot, 30 September), Ballard and Brobbey (both SUN, both hamstring, 25 and 24 September), Rashford (MUN, unspecified, 21 September — owned by about 1 in 100, a non-issue for most).
Two things the dates tell you. First, the flags logged 20–21 September — Palmer, Rice, Rashford, White — have sat unchanged through a gameweek. No club has downgraded them. Second, the flags logged this week — Tzolis, Mykolenko, O'Reilly — are the ones where the picture can still move before deadline.
The calls. A 75% flag is a player expected to be available. Start Palmer. Start Isak. Start Semenyo. Hold every player on this list — no flag here justifies a transfer, let alone a hit. Do two things instead: set your bench order so a £4.5m starter covers each flagged pick, and do not captain anyone on this list. Fourteen flags, zero sells.
