Looking at players who are a buy sell and keep for FPL Gameweek 8 could be extremely beneficial to FPL managers. Knowing what to do with assets in your team can ultimately bring clarity with transfer use, captaincy and chip strategy.
Buy
- Ollie Watkins (£8m) – The Aston Villa striker sits as the highest scoring player in the game currently and picked up a huge 23 points in Gameweek 7 against Brighton. He also faces a Wolves side conceding some very poor defensive data next.
- Moussa Diaby (£6.7m) – Monitoring news of his knock will be key. The midfielder has collected a return in four of his seven matches so far including a double-digit return. His price-tag also helps enable other options within the squad.
- Matty Cash (£4.9m) – The fixture against Wolves and run ahead could mean investing in the Aston Villa backline a wise move. The best way to invest is by bringing in Matty Cash who leads every other defender for non -penalty expected goal involvement.
- Dominic Solanke (£6.4m) – Bournemouth could have a great opportunity against a poor Everton side up next. Solanke leads his frontline and takes his sides penalties. It is also worth mentioning that he has also bagged four returns in his first seven games.
- Mohamed Salah (£12.6m) – Liverpool come up against a Brighton side who are yet to keep a single clean sheet in the league. Salah has bagged a return in all but one of his games so far so has been consistent since the start of the campaign. He also takes penalties which gives him another route to points.
- Son Heung-min (£9.3m) – There may not be an easier fixture to target all season for Tottenham than against Luton. They are in great scoring form and Son leads his attack. The midfielder has also managed three returns in his last four games including two double-digit hauls.
- James Maddison (£7.9m) – Tottenham have been scoring an average of more than two goals per match this season. Because of that and the fact he ranks in the top five players for non-penalty expected goal involvement Maddison is a transfer in.
Sell
- Ben Chilwell (£5.5m) – The Chelsea left-back has been confirmed injured and could be out for up to two months.
- Raheem Sterling (£7.1m) – Sterling has consistently failed to convert his promising play into FPL returns. He also failed to start the last match which is a major concern moving forward.
- Pervis Estupinan (£5.3m) – Brighton continue to disappoint in terms of defence and are yet to keep a single clean sheet. Estupinan may be impressive offensively but he was withdrawn at half-time in the last game due to a poor display. He faces Liverpool next up as well which could mean another minus return.
- Eberechi Eze (£6.2m) – The Crystal Palace midfielder has a nice fixture this week but reports suggest he could be side-lined for up two six weeks due to injury.
- Jordan Pickford (£4.4m) – Everton have shown time and time again that they can’t be trusted from a defensive point of view. Pickford has also been well below his usual standard of quality.
- Carlton Morris (£5.6m) – The Luton striker may have scored in his latest double Gameweek but he faces Tottenham this week. Morris has also been producing some very poor attacking data so far this season.
- Bukayo Saka (£8.6m) – Saka has Manchester City up next but there is no telling he’ll even make it thought the first half. The Arsenal midfielder has been suffering with a calf injury for sometime and his minutes are questionable moving forward.
- Julian Alvarez (£7m) – The Manchester City striker has been overperforming on his data this season. He also faces a very tough schedule coming up which could reduce his minutes and impact. In addition, having one Manchester City striker should be enough for the run ahead.
Keep
- Bryan Mbeumo (£6.8m) – Mbeumo may have been off the boil lately but there is a good chance he will start the game against Manchester United even more advanced than usual. The Reds are also in extremely poor form defensively which highlights them as a team to target.
- Kaoru Mitoma (£6.6m) – Brighton may be inconsistent at the back but they currently sit as one of the leagues highest scorers. They come up against a Liverpool side who have been ropey defensively. Main man Mitoma could have potential this week. He also bagged a brace in one of his most recent matches.
- Erling Haaland (£12.5m) – Manchester City face a match against Arsenal next. Although tough the Norwegian is maintaining some of the best attacking data in the league amongst all players. He is also takes his sides penalties.
- Marcus Rashford (£8.8m) – Its going to be a tough decision to decide if Rashford is a buy sell and keep for FPL Gameweek 8. As frustrating as he has been Rashford faces a team in Brentford next whom have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last six matches in all competitions. Manchester United also look effective offensively. It could be Rashford’ last chance.
- Bruno Fernandes (£8.4m) – Bruno has also been frustrating but his data has been much more promising than his teammates (Rashford). He takes his sides penalties but also has some great fixtures ahead.
- Jarrod Bowen (£7.2m) – The Hammers continue to score plenty of goals this season. They come up against Newcastle next whom could find the balance between league and Champions League football challenging. Bowen is in great form and also has a lovely schedule ahead.
- Kieran Trippier (£6.8m) – Trippier may come up against a tough West Ham frontline in Gameweek 8 but he is maintaining the best distribution data amongst all defenders in the league. Trippier has multiple routes to points this week.
