Julian Alvarez (£6.9m) is comfortably the most popular Fantasy Premier League (FPL) transfer in this week &#8211; but who are the alternatives if you fancy someone different in FPL Gameweek 6?
The absence of Kevin De Bruyne (£10.3m) has led to the Argentine getting a run in the team &#8211; and he&#8217;s taken his chance, with manager Pep Guardiola describing him as &#8216;almost undroppable&#8217;.
Alvarez was Erling Haaland&#8217;s (£14.1m) understudy last term, meaning his minutes were limited. That&#8217;s no longer the case, with the Argentine forward now occupying a place in City&#8217;s fluid attack. 
Consistent playing time has seen Alvarez unleashed &#8211; across the opening five gameweek, he has netted two goals and assisted five more and picking up numerous bonus points along the way. 
But <a href="https://www.squawka.com/">Squawka</a> is here with four alternatives for those who feel they&#8217;ve missed the Alvarez boat &#8211; most of whom are cheaper, all of whom are selected by less than 10% of FPL squads.

<h2>The best Julian Alvarez alternatives in FPL</h2>
<h3>Callum Wilson &#8211; Newcastle (£7.8m)</h3>
<ul>
<li>Teams selected by: 5.4%</li>
<li>Upcoming games: Sheff Utd (A), Burnley (H), West Ham (A), Crystal Palace (H)</li>
</ul>
En route to Newcastle making their Champions League return, Wilson was their most prolific scorer, with 18 goals in 31 appearances last term. 
The Magpies have started this campaign slowly, with a tough fixture run, but the England international has picked up from where left off, netting three goals to date. 
His unpopularity is perhaps driven by his status as a super-sub &#8211; he has just one start this season.  
But the striker has shown what he can do with minimal minutes, while Alexander Isak (£7.6m) &#8211; one of this week’s most transferred-out players in FPL &#8211; has yet to score since the opening gameweek.
Furthermore, no FPL forward selected by fewer than 10% of teams has a higher non-penalty xG in 2023 than Wilson. He&#8217;s one to keep an eye on, given Newcastle&#8217;s favourable upcoming fixtures.

&nbsp;
<h3>Odsonne Edouard &#8211; Crystal Palace (£5.6m)</h3>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Teams selected by: 4.6%</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Upcoming games: Fulham (H), Manchester United (A), Nottingham Forest (H), Newcastle (A)</li>
</ul>
It was at Celtic where Edouard, a former graduate of Paris Saint-Germain&#8217;s academy, started to fulfil his promise. 
His time with Crystal Palace hasn&#8217;t exactly seen him pull up trees but that is starting to change. Edouard is already two goals away from equalling his best Premier League return.
Palace boss Roy Hodgson told reporters before the international break:
<blockquote>&#8220;He did get that position as a centre-forward when we came in and he has got better and better, knowing how we want to try and play. 
&#8220;He hadn&#8217;t lost the technique, talent, the skill or the things that made him so big at Celtic. I spoke to Brendan Rodgers not so long ago and he was glowing in his praise about him.&#8221;</blockquote>
<div id="attachment_58108" style="width: 907px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-58108" class="size-full wp-image-58108" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Odsonne-Edouard.jpg" alt="" width="897" height="731" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Odsonne-Edouard.jpg 897w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Odsonne-Edouard-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Odsonne-Edouard-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Odsonne-Edouard-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px" />Odsonne Edouard</div>

<h3>Evan Ferguson &#8211; Brighton (£6.0m)</h3>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Teams selected by: 8.3%</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Upcoming games: Bournemouth (H), Aston Villa (A), Liverpool (H), Man City (A)</li>
</ul>
Before the international break, Evan Ferguson cemented his status as the league&#8217;s most exciting prospect. 
A fabulous hat-trick against Newcastle saw him become only the second non-English player to hit 10 Premier League goal involvements (10 goals and two assists) while aged 18 or younger, after Cesc Fabregas (five goals and 10 assists). 
Equally impressive was the fact Ferguson goes down as the fourth player to score a Premier League hat-trick aged 18 or younger, after Chris Bart-Williams, Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen (four times). 
It&#8217;s worth noting the Irish marksman has only started two games this season but Ferguson’s form throughout 2023 reflects a consistency Roberto De Zerbi will want in the team.
<div id="attachment_58109" style="width: 907px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-58109" class="size-full wp-image-58109" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Ferguson.jpg" alt="" width="897" height="731" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Ferguson.jpg 897w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Ferguson-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Ferguson-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Ferguson-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px" />Evan Ferguson</div>

<h3>Dominic Solanke &#8211; Bournemouth (£6.5m) </h3>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Selected by: 4.6%</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Upcoming games: Brighton (A), Arsenal (H), Everton (A), Wolves (H)</li>
</ul>
The presence of Dominic Solanke ensured Bournemouth staved off relegation last season.
It&#8217;s so far been another challenging start for the Cherries but Solanke can still be relied upon. Across his opening five appearances, the former Liverpool man has either scored or assisted in three matches. 
With the exception of upcoming showdowns with Brighton and Arsenal, there are some games on the horizon where one of the <a href="https://www.squawka.com/en/news/premier-league-fastest-players-top-speed-23-24/">Premier League&#8217;s fastest players</a> can profit.
<div id="attachment_58110" style="width: 907px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-58110" class="size-full wp-image-58110" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Solanke-2.jpg" alt="" width="897" height="731" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Solanke-2.jpg 897w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Solanke-2-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Solanke-2-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Solanke-2-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px" />Dominic Solanke</div>
