Best FPL Player from Every Premier League Club
Looking for consistency in your FPL squad this season? One of the smartest early strategies is locking in the standout name from each side – and that’s exactly what we’ve done here. In this guide, we reveal the Best FPL Player from Every Premier League Club, spotlighting 20 reliable picks who stand out as each team’s most valuable Fantasy asset right now.
Arsenal
Arsenal were one of the best defences in the league last season which makes their backline extremely appealing. With this in mind, centre-back Gabriel (£6m) stands out due to attacking threat – ranking among the top five defenders for total big chances.
New striker Viktor Gyokeres and midfielder Bukayo Saka (£10m) are two other players FPL managers will consider.
Aston Villa
Only six players managed more FPL points than striker Ollie Watkins (£9m) in the 2024/25 campaign. With limited striker options this season Watkins could be a standout, spearheading an exciting Aston Villa frontline and being fed chances by creative players behind him.
Also in the running is midfielder Morgan Rogers (£7m) and defender Ezri Konsa (£4.5m). Both players could be effective routes into the Aston Villa defence and attack.
Bournemouth
Bournemouth were excellent last season and offered plenty of value. However, one player in particular stands out, Justin Kluivert (£7m). The Dutch midfielder and penalty taker bagged 12 goals and six assists last campaign.
Another standout is fellow midfielder Antoine Semenyo (£7m). The Ghanian also impressed – with four goals and one assist in his final matches of the 2024/25 season.
Brentford
With plenty of change at Brentford, it’s very difficult to select a standout option from the Bees. One player who could become a very good option though depending on their backline is former Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhen Kelleher (£4.5m).
If striker Yoane Wissa (£7.5m) stays at Brentford then he will of course be on the minds of many within the FPL community. Wissa bagged managed an impressive 19 goals and four assists in just 35 league matches last season.
Brighton
Brighton are another side victim of plenty of change. Whilst they have some interesting players coming in, it’s midfielder Kaoru Mitoma (£6.5m) who could appeal. Mitoma featured 36 times last time out in the league and bagged 10 goals and four assists.
New signing and defender Maxim De Cuyper (£4.5m) should also offer potential. Prior to his move to the Seagulls he scored and assisted during his two matches for country.
Burnley
Newly promoted sides aren’t the most convincing for FPL managers when it comes to spending their budget. So, opting for the cheapest options could be a solutions. Centre-back Maxime Esteve is just one of few playing £4m defenders in the game, and he also sustained great underlying defensive data last season which could help him achieve defensive action point bonus.
Chelsea
Chelsea sustained some of the best underlying offensive data in the league last season, so backing them in attack with talisman and penalty taking midfielder Cole Palmer (£10.5m) makes sense. Palmer bagged 200+ points for a second successive campaign in 2024/25.
The Blues have plenty of potentially great picks for the new season, including fellow midfielder Pedro Neto (£7m) and forward Joao Pedro (£7.5m).
Crystal Palace
Eberechi Eze (£7.5m) could be the best of the bunch at Crystal Palace. The in-game midfielder appears to be on penalties for his sides and netted eight goals in his final 10 matches of the 2024/25 campaign.
Another option many will be monitoring is forward Jean Philippe Mateta (£7.5m). Mateta racked up more FPL points than any of his teammates last season.
Everton
We are yet to see how new signings will affect Everton, but at first glance Iliman Ndiaye (£6.5m) could have huge potential this season. As well as being reclassified from a forward to a midfielder, Ndiaye is also crucial for the Everton frontline.
Fulham
With plenty of options in defence and little up front in FPL, a Fulham forward could be a great option for managers. One of them is Raul Jimenez (£6.5m) who goes into the new season after bagging a goal in each of his two games for country.

Leeds
Centre-back Pascal Struijk (£4.5m) offers something other defenders do not. He may not be the most appealing for clean sheet potential, but he has regularly taken penalties for Leeds.
If Karl Darlow (£4m) maintains gametime for Leeds in pre-season then he could be one of the cheapest playing goalkeepers in the game.
Liverpool
Picking the best at Liverpool could be the easiest of the lot. Mohamed Salah (£14.5m) amassed a record-breaking 344 points in the previous campaign due to a massive 40+ attacking returns. The Egyptian isn’t just a reliable asset but also an excellent captaincy option week in week out.
FPL managers should also keep an eye on fellow midfielder Florian Wirtz (£8.5m). The German produced double-digits for both goals and assists in his final Bundesliga campaign for Leverkusen.
Manchester City
It’s also fairly straight forward for Manchester City. Striker and penalty taker Erling Haaland (£14m) remains the best of the bunch. Haaland hit 22 goals and three assists last time out, which was arguably below many expectations within the community.
Manchester United
Although the Reds have cheap defender options and new signings Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo at their disposal, midfielder Bruno Fernandes (£9m) still stands out. The midfielder takes penalties and has been one of the most creative players in the league over the last several years.
Newcastle
Only one man comes to mind currently when thinking of Newcastle, Aleksander Isak (£10.5m). Isak finished the previous campaign as the fourth highest scoring player in the game due to 23 goals and six assists.
Nottingham Forest
The football community was rocked when Nottingham Forest claimed a top six finish in the Premier League last season. Helping them achieve that was penalty taker and striker Chris Wood (£7.5m). Wood was one of five players to hit 200 points in FPL last season due to his efforts.
Nottingham Forest also maintained one of the best defences in the league. Because of this, don’t be surprised if full-back Ola Aina (£5m) is a popular asset at his price-point.
Sunderland
The Black Cats have several different options who could have success this season. Of them, and crucial to the Sunderland attack is midfielder Enzo Le Fee (£5m). Le Fee takes some set pieces for his side which gives him multiple routes to points.
New signing and centre-back Reinildo Mandava (£4m) could also be a valuable pick for FPL managers. The former Atleti man will be one of the cheapest playing defenders in the game if he sustains his minutes.
Tottenham
Tottenham are another side who have multiple viable options for FPL managers to pick from. Leading the attack and most likely to maintain gametime in the frontline is Dominic Solanke (£7.5m). Solanke has had a slow start to life at Spurs, but under new management that could change.
In defence, full-back Destiny Udogie (£4.5m) appears to have attracted the community due to his price. New signing Mohammed Kudus (£6.5m) is also stirring up some excitement after moving over from West Ham.
West Ham
Providing the Hammers can improve defensively, flying full-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£4.5m) may steal the show. The former Manchester United man registered three assists in his last five league games last season.
Whilst his reclassification from midfielder to forward has frustrated FPL managers, there is no denying that Jarrod Bowen (£8m) is West Ham’ main threat in attack.
Wolves
Losing two major assets like Rayan Ait-Nouri and Matheus Cunha to the Manchester sides could be a significant loss for Wolves, but it also opens up an opportunity for striker Strand Larsen (£6.5m) to be the star. Larsen had an impressive campaign last time out – securing 14 goals and four assists.
