Players to Sell Game Week 8

Forwards

Alexander Isak

Although there is potential for Isak to comeback from injury this week, he is still a sell. Newcastle have a difficult run of fixtures, facing Chelsea and Arsenal in their next 3 games. His hefty £8.3m price tag can be better spent elsewhere, with cheaper and more efficient options being available, such as Tottenham's Solanke.




Joao Pedro

With the confirmation that Joao Pedro's injury will leave him side-lined for at least 6 weeks, he is an easy sell. There are many alternatives available for similar prices of £5.5m so finding a replacement should not be difficult.

 




Midfielders

Ebereche Eze

Failing to live up to his hype this season, it is time to sell Ebereche Eze. Having only registered 1 G/A so far this season, and with a difficult fixture run ahead, it is not worth holding onto the Englishman. Crystal Palace sit in the relegation zone struggling to keep goals out at one end and put them in the other, making it a simple decision to ship Eze off.




Noni Madueke

Unlike Palmer, Madueke is not a fixture proof player, and with Liverpool, Newcastle and Arsenal on the horizon, picking up points in these fixtures will be unlikely for the young winger. Costing £6.5m, it is not worth benching Madueke, making more sense to sell. Chelsea's fixtures turn for the better in game week 12, so it is worthwhile waiting until then to transfer any of these players in.




Defender

Noussair Mazraoui

Manchester United have had an underwhelming campaign so far this season and are currently sitting firmly in the bottom half of the table. The Moroccan joined the Red Devils for €15m in the summer and has been playing fairly well so far this season. However, due to the teams uninspiring performances and picking up an illness over the international break, it would be wise to organise a replacement. A popular thought process amongst managers as Mazraoui is the third most sold player this week.

FPL Game Week 8 Essential Player Picks

Image
 1. Bryan Mbuemo Brentford's new talisman, Bryan Mbuemo, has been on great form this season after the departure of Ivan Toney in the summer transfer window. The 25 year old has 6 goals in 7 games for the Bees in the league this season, with only Haaland having scored more. Mbuemo is the most transferred in player this week, bringing him up to 27% ownership amongst players, and with good reason. Away to an uninspiring Manchester United this week, and with Ipswich, Fulham, Bournemouth and Fulham up next in the fixture calendar, Mbuemo is a great long-term pick.  2. Brennan Johnson Scoring again over the international break, Brennan Johnson made it 7 consecutive games on the scoresheet. Coming in at £6.5m, and being transferred in by 242,000 managers, the Welsh international is a solid pick until Spurs play Manchester City in game-week 12. Although only playing 90 minutes twice this season, averaging 74 minutes a game in the 24/25 season, Johnson has proved himself to be a signif...

The Saka Situation

Image
Having missed Arsenal's last two games with a hamstring injury, Bukayo Saka is a worry this week for the 25% of managers who still own him. The Gunners' winger is the most transferred out player for week 9, with 800,000 players getting rid of the midfielder. Respected Arsenal journalist, Charles Watts, tweeted that the club remains hopeful he will start, however it will be a late decision. As Arsenal face top of the table Liverpool this week, after losing their first game of the season against Bournemouth the week before - the only league game Saka did not play - it is understood that boss, Mikel Arteta will be doing everything he can to get the 23 year old into the starting line-up. Saka has been vital in Arsenal's campaign this season, registering 2 goals and 7 assists in his 7 matches played. However, his recent absence from the team sheet has lead many managers to look for alternative options. Son Heung Min of Spurs, who himself has recently bounced back from an injury,...
