Best Wildcard Team
With the help of the above and Plan FPL, we built the best Wildcard for Gameweek 14:
Goalkeepers
Chelsea and Brighton have a lovely set of fixtures long-term. What’s more is that their schedules rotate extremely well around each other, This could mean the addition of both Chelsea’s Robert Sanchez (£4.7m) and Brighton’s Bart Verbruggen (£4.5m) could be good ones.
Defenders
Arsenal are another side coming into a great period of fixtures. The Gooners appear to be recapturing good defensive form, so doubling up at the back could be beneficial. Gabriel (£6.2m) stands out above every other member of the backline, but Jurrien Timber (£5.5m) is a cheaper route in, so both make the cut.
Still enjoying a good run of fixtures and form, Wolves full-back Rayan Ait Nouri (£4.8m) remains a solid option. As well being a route to potential clean sheets, the Algerian also offers considerable attacking threat.
Manchester City may be suffering through a poor patch of form, but that may not continue for much longer. A cheap way into the backline is Rico Lewis (£4.7m), who has also proven to have attacking threat.
Another cheap and enabling defensive option could be Ezri Konsa (£4.4m). Aston Villa have some great home fixtures ahead and Konsa could be a cheap avenue into their potential clean sheets.
Midfielders
Form suggests Arsenal are on an uphill trajectory so buying their talisman and penalty taker Bukayo Saka (£10.3m) makes sense. Saka has been in top form again this season – bagging four goals and eight assists already.
Chelsea continue to score more goals than most sides in the league and Cole Palmer (£10.9m) has been a big contributor to that. Palmer finished the previous season with 22 goals and 11 assists, and he has already managed more than a third of that total this season.
Mohamed Salah’s (£13.1m) relentless output this season has made him one of the best captaincy options in any given Gameweek. For that reason, the Egyptian could be considered as an essential, for the time being at least.
Aston Villa’s home matches and Morgan Rogers’s (£5.4m) enabling price-tag combine to make him a great pick for their run ahead. Rogers has become integral to Unai Emery’s frontline in terms of minutes, and his growing output suggests he has plenty of potential ahead.
Antoine Semenyo (£5.7m) has been frustrating owners, but both him and Bournemouth face some poor defences ahead. No midfielder has produced more attempts on goal than Semenyo this campaign, which shows his hunger to score goals.
Forwards
Brighton’s fixtures are in the middle of turning for the better. The Seagulls have impressed from an attacking perspective this season and Joao Pedro (£5.7m) is their cheapest and most reliable route into the attack.
No striker has produced more crosses, chances and big chances this season than Matheus Cunha (£7m). Cunha is in scintillating form and has lovely enough fixtures ahead to continue that with Wolves.
Chelsea’s schedule and the drop off from several other strikers in terms of output could make Nicolas Jackson (£8m) a shoo-in. As well as amassing seven goals and registering three assists this campaign, Jackson also ranks fourth best amongst all players for non-penalty expected goal involvement.
