Here’s my fantasy premier league gameweek review of gameweek 5 Saturday’s games. We look at each game giving the player highlights and comments on key players.
fantasy premier league gameweek review – Saturday GW5
QPR 2 Stoke 2
- £5.7m Crouch started and scored and assisted. Should keep his place with good fixtures ahead.
- Neither side looked secure in defence which is a shame as both have £4.5m defenders
- Stoke and in particular £5.5m Moses looked excellent on the break.
- Caulker showed his scoring ability. Shame about the £4.9m price and clean sheet potential.
- £5.0m Krancjar showed his free kick potential. Mixed fixtures though
Aston Villa 0 Arsenal 3
- The Villa defence looks more like last years version although a virus was trotted out as the reason and the absences in the team sheet
- £9.0m Ozil shines in a central role with a goal or assist. 2 tricky fixtures next
- Sanchez rested rather than injured. Team sheet was apparently filled out in error.
- Arsenal get their first clean sheet.
- Quiet game from £9.1m Ramsey although he was still getting into the box
- £7.1m Welbeck continues get shooting opportunities and this time scores and assists
Burnley 0 Sunderland 0
- 3rd consecutive clean sheet for Burnley and £4.1m Duff.
- 1st clean sheet for Sunderland but it was barely deserved. The Newcastle/Sunderland defensive rotation despite this game looks very questionable
- £4.9m fwd Jutkiewicz did everything but score. Yet to return.
- £5.0m Arfield again had a load of shots despite 4 consecutive blanks
- £5.9m fwd Wickham disappointing but played centrally
Newcastle 2 Hull 2
- Only 2 clean sheets in 10 games for these 2 clubs.
- Hull play 4-4-2 again and £4.6m Chester dropped. The defence was terrible though
- £7.5m Cabella and £7.0m Riverie had loads of chances. 1 assist each in 10 games both have played
- £5.9m Cisse back from the cold to score twice. 2 goals last season and an FPL point every 25 minutes does mean caution.
- £6.0m Jelavic 3rd goal in 5 games. Mixed fixtures though with Cty next
Swansea 0 Southampton 1
- £5.0m Alderweireld injured so didn’t start. No return date
- game distorted by the Bony red card
- Southampton defence strong
- £7.6m Pelle was outstanding and deserved more than an assist.
- £7.5m Tadic quiet
- £6.6m Siggy quiet but hard to judge with 10 men
West Ham 3 Liverpool 1
- Poor defence again from Liverpool
- £8.8m Sterling shines again with a goal. 4 good fixtures 2 tricky coming up.
- £6.9m fwd Valencia outstanding despite not returning
- Another quite game from £10.0m Balotelli despite the assist
- £5.5m mid Downing shined and got an assist from a central role at the tip of the diamond. Some good fixtures
