<h2>Gameweek 13 review</h2>
<p>It was an awful gameweek for me. <strong>Ollie Watkins (£8.5m)</strong> to <strong>Dominic Solanke (£6.5m)</strong> lost me three points, but the captaincy really went against me. <strong>Son Heung-min (£9.6m)</strong> having three goals disallowed for offside was a bitter pill to swallow.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m just inside the top 2m as we go into a hectic festive period. <strong>Jarrod Bowen (£7.5m) </strong>didn&#8217;t play and looks to be out again this week, so he&#8217;s on the chopping block. My low team value is really showing at this point.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Due to a new job, doing an apprenticeship alongside it and tight deadlines, I&#8217;m going to go through my musings for the next few gameweeks, and look to pick the articles up weekly again in January.</p>
<h2>Using FPL Points as a Metric: The data</h2>
<h3>Goalkeepers</h3>
<div id="attachment_60012" style="width: 920px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-60012" class="wp-image-60012 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.17.jpg" alt="" width="910" height="338" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.17.jpg 910w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.17-300x111.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.17-768x285.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.17-610x227.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 910px) 100vw, 910px" /><p id="caption-attachment-60012" class="wp-caption-text">FPL points data &#8211; goalkeepers</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, Manchester United, Burnley and Everton are conceding the most FPL points to opposition goalkeepers.</p>
<p>Arsenal, Liverpool, United, Newcastle and Palace are the teams scoring the most FPL points in this position.</p>
<p>My aim is to avoid a goalkeeper transfer over the festive period but if I needed to make one, I&#8217;d go for <strong>Neto (£4.5m) </strong>at Bournemouth.</p>
<h3>Defenders</h3>
<div id="attachment_60016" style="width: 920px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-60016" class="wp-image-60016 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.37-1.jpg" alt="" width="910" height="335" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.37-1.jpg 910w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.37-1-300x110.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.37-1-768x283.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.37-1-610x225.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 910px) 100vw, 910px" /><p id="caption-attachment-60016" class="wp-caption-text">FPL points data &#8211; defenders</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Bournemouth, Sheffield United, Luton, Burnley and Everton are conceding the most FPL points to opposition defenders.</p>
<p>Liverpool, Arsenal, Newcastle, Manchester City and United are the teams scoring the most FPL points in the defender position.</p>
<p><strong>Marc Guehi (£4.7m) </strong>has been a massive letdown. Defenders from Arsenal, Brentford and Chelsea could be good options.</p>
<h3>Midfielders</h3>
<div id="attachment_60017" style="width: 920px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-60017" class="wp-image-60017 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.58-1.jpg" alt="" width="910" height="337" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.58-1.jpg 910w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.58-1-300x111.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.58-1-768x284.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.55.58-1-610x226.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 910px) 100vw, 910px" /><p id="caption-attachment-60017" class="wp-caption-text">FPL points data &#8211; midfielders</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Luton, Palace, Burnley, Sheffield United and Bournemouth have conceded the most FPL points to opposition midfielders so far.</p>
<p>Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham, Arsenal, Liverpool and Newcastle are the teams scoring the most midfielder FPL points so far.</p>
<p>I am in the market for a midfielder this week, with <strong>Bryan Mbeumo (£7.0m) </strong>firmly on my radar. Liverpool fixtures are also good but I&#8217;m already on three Liverpool players. I&#8217;m also looking at <strong>Bukayo Saka (£8.6m)</strong>.</p>
<h3>Forwards</h3>
<div id="attachment_60018" style="width: 905px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-60018" class="wp-image-60018 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.56.31-1.jpg" alt="" width="895" height="338" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.56.31-1.jpg 895w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.56.31-1-300x113.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.56.31-1-768x290.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.56.31-1-610x230.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 895px) 100vw, 895px" /><p id="caption-attachment-60018" class="wp-caption-text">FPL points data &#8211; forwards</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>West Ham, Everton, Wolves, Brighton, and Fulham are conceding the most FPL points to opposition forwards so far.</p>
<p>City, Brighton, Luton, Newcastle and Aston Villa are the teams scoring the most FPL points in the forward position.</p>
<p>Solanke blanking in a three-goal performance from Bournemouth was unexpected and disappointing. Hopefully he picks some points up over the next few.</p>
<p>Teams with decent fixtures are Burnley, Chelsea, Nottingham Forest, Liverpool and Arsenal, if I do want a different striker.</p>
<h3>Points per game</h3>
<p>I use this table to check out specific fixtures. It helps with captaincy and double gameweeks.</p>
<div id="attachment_60019" style="width: 736px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-60019" class="wp-image-60019 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.56.50.jpg" alt="" width="726" height="665" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.56.50.jpg 726w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.56.50-300x275.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-10.56.50-610x559.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 726px) 100vw, 726px" /><p id="caption-attachment-60019" class="wp-caption-text">FPL points data</p></div>
<h2>Gameweek 14 transfers</h2>
<p>Going into Gameweek 14, I&#8217;m set up like this:</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-60020 aligncenter" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.22.15.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="695" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.22.15.jpg 600w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.22.15-259x300.jpg 259w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I have two free transfers and £3.1m in the bank.</p>
<p>When I look at the <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/my-team/transfers">Hub AI transfers</a> tool, I get the following:</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-large wp-image-60021 aligncenter" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.23.28-1024x517.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="517" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.23.28-1024x517.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.23.28-300x152.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.23.28-768x388.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.23.28-610x308.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.23.28-1080x545.jpg 1080w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.23.28.jpg 1180w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Hub AI wants me to make a double change in midfield &#8211; and ignore Mbeumo!</p>
<p>That&#8217;s interesting and something I&#8217;ll think about.</p>
<p>Long-term, players I want to move on are:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Matty Cash</strong></li>
<li><strong>Marc Guehi</strong></li>
<li><strong>One of Jarrad Braithwaite or Charlie Taylor.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>I&#8217;m happy with the rest of the team at the moment. My inclination this week is to do Bowen to Mbeumo. I&#8217;ll then have two transfers again next week, where I can potentially move Cash on and get an Arsenal, Brentford or Chelsea defender. Maybe even two, selling Guehi/Braithwaite as well.</p>
<h2>Gameweek 14 captaincy</h2>
<p>When looking at the Hub&#8217;s <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Points Prediction tool,</a> we see Haaland top of the charts. Make sure to check the predictions later in the week, as things can change.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-60022 aligncenter" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.26.13.jpg" alt="" width="541" height="522" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.26.13.jpg 541w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screenshot-2023-12-01-at-11.26.13-300x289.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 541px) 100vw, 541px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Haaland vs Salah is a big debate this week. Currently, I&#8217;m leaning towards Haaland.</p>
<p>As mentioned above, with lots going on in my personal life, I&#8217;ll be doing these less frequently over the festive period. Normal service should resume in January.</p>
