Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 21 – Best Players, Fixtures and More
847

As Fantasy Premier League managers brace for Gameweek 21, one of the longest in FPL history, crucial decisions loom large.

This gameweek comes with its set of challenges, including the absence of key players and injuries. Let's explore the players who might be pivotal in navigating this extended gameweek.

Goalkeepers

In the goalkeeping department, Alphonse Areola (West Ham) and Alisson (Liverpool) are solid choices, with both keepers representing teams with strong defensive records.

David Raya (Arsenal) and Djordje Petrovic (Chelsea) also present good options, with their teams showing defensive resilience in recent matches.

Defenders

With Trent Alexander-Arnold out due to injury, FPL managers will need to look at other defensive stalwarts. Emerson (West Ham), William Saliba (Arsenal) and Gabriel (Arsenal) remain a good pick despite Gunners bad form.

Levi Colwill (Chelsea)  and Malo Gusto (Chelsea) are nailed options in the Chelsea defense. Pedro Porro (Tottenham) continues to be a valuable pick due to his attacking contributions. Pervis Estupiñán (Brighton), back at full fitness, should also be considered, especially given his potential for offensive returns.

Midfielders

The midfield sees significant changes with Mohamed Salah and Son Heung-min out on international duty. Jarrod Bowen (West Ham), although a major doubt, has been one of the season's standout midfielders and could be a game-changer if fit.

Douglas Luiz (Aston Villa), Cole Palmer (Chelsea) and Noni Madueke (Chelsea) are all in hot form. Pascal Groß (Brighton) proved to be the Seagulls talisman and is worth considering. Bukayo Saka (Arsenal), with his consistent performances, is also a top pick.

Forwards

Erling Haaland's (Manchester City) doubt for this gameweek shifts the focus to other forwards. Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa), João Pedro (Brighton), and Dominick Solanke (Bournemouth) are all viable options.

Chris Wood (Nottingham Forest) might favor against Brentford's recent shaky defense. Additionally, with Ivan Toney's suspension over, he may return as Brentford's main attacking threat, making him a player to watch.

In summary, Gameweek 21 offers a mix of reliable choices and potential differentials across all positions. Managers will need to adapt to the absence of key players like Salah, Son, and potentially Haaland, looking instead to other talents who can step up during this period.

Balancing the team with a combination of consistent performers and players who could provide a surprise boost in points will be key. As always, staying updated with the latest player news is crucial for making the best decisions for your FPL lineup. Good luck to all managers in navigating through this extended and challenging gameweek!

The DEADLINE is on Friday at 18:15 PM UK Time, so be ready!
