Gameweek 27 Review
The Free Hit used, proved to have very little effect in terms of points. Joshua King and Jamaal Lascelles were the top performers of the week with 7 and 6 points respectively. Lukasz Fabianski, Sadio Mane, Ryan Fraser, and Paul Pogba got three points each. Captain Aubameyang came away with only 2 points due to his substitute appearance against Southampton with Marcus Rashford, Heung-min Son and Patrick van Aanholt also getting 2 each. Ricardo Pereira got 0 points for being a part of Leicester’s home defeat against Crystal Palace.
Gameweek 28 Transfers
Richarlison’s lack of production is a major cause of concern. He can be replaced by Andros Townsend or Roberto Pereyra.
Alisson Becker is also another potential transfer candidate. The resurgence of David De Gea under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer makes him a prime candidate for the transfer. Fellow Brazilian Ederson can also replace the former Roma shot-stopper. However, the current set of fixtures, are favourable to the players and no transfers are made.
