The War Room · GW8–13

Goretzka: four angles, one call

The room’s callBetter options at the priceGoretzka is the #179 midfielder in FPL on our projections for GW8–13 (1.1 pts). Groß (BHA, £6.1m) projects 48.3 more over the same six.

FPL Brains the numbers

Look elsewhere

#179 of the midfielders on our numbers, 1.1 over six. Groß at £6.1m projects 48.3 more.

Haulage King the big hauls

Light week

0.2 projected in GW8, Man City at home. Hauls don’t come from here this week.

Cheapy value for money

Overpriced

Jordan Henderson costs £1.0m less and projects 21.2 to Goretzka’s 1.1. More points, money in the bank.

FPL Risky the bold calls

Too risky

0% owned, and the numbers say why. Bold is fine; blind isn't.
