The War Room · GW8–13

Cairns: four angles, one call

The room’s callBetter options at the priceCairns is the #21 goalkeeper in FPL on our projections for GW8–13 (4.0 pts). Rushworth (COV, £4.5m) projects 16.6 more over the same six.

FPL Brains the numbers

Look elsewhere

#21 of the goalkeepers on our numbers, 4.0 over six. Rushworth at £4.5m projects 16.6 more.

Haulage King the big hauls

Light week

0.7 projected in GW8, Sunderland away. Hauls don’t come from here this week.

Cheapy value for money

Fair price

1.0 points a million, #20 of 36 starting goalkeepers. Nothing cheaper does the same job, but nothing here is a bargain either.

FPL Risky the bold calls

Too risky

0.2% owned, and the numbers say why. Bold is fine; blind isn't.
