Top 5 FPL Midfielders to pick in GW11
Rank | Player | Team | Price | Points | GW11 Opponent |
1 | Bruno Fernandes | Manchester United | £8.2m | 33 points | Leicester City |
2 | Brennan Johnson | Tottenham Hotspur | £6.7m | 47 points | Ipswich Town |
3 | Mo Salah | Liverpool | £12.8m | 93 points | Aston Villa |
4 | Georgino Rutter | Brighton | £5.6m | 38 points | Manchester City |
5 | Antoine Semenyo | Bournemouth | £5.6m | 44 points | Brentford |
5. Antoine Semenyo – Bournemouth | 44 points | £5.6m
This season Antoine Semenyo has shown his level. Near the end of last season the dazzling winger caught plenty of eyeballs but this season he has added consistency to his game. In 10 games so far, he has 4 goals and an assist. It is also clear that there is potential for a lot more. He is a very good player physically and a great watch on the ball. Last weekend he was instrumental as Bournemouth beat Manchester City, bullying Kyle Walker time and time again. The in form Cherries play Brentford this weekend and are entering into a run of fixtures. This is the time to pick up a cheap option like Semenyo.

4. Georgino Rutter – Brighton | 38 points | £5.6m
While he has played only 7 games so far, Georgino Rutter has looked every bit the player that Brighton shelled out the big bucks for this summer. The youngster looks like a really exciting talent and already has 3 assists and 2 goals to his name in the Premier League. He is also one of the players you can get on the cheap, as he is only valued at £5.6m in Fantasy Premier League. While this weekend’s match is against Manchester City, Rutter is exactly the type of player that can hurt Pep Guardiola’s out of form side. Even apart from that, Brighton have a few good fixtures coming up, so this is correct time to get him in your team.
3. Mo Salah – Liverpool | 93 points | £12.8m
Mo Salah has the most points in Fantasy Premier League so far this season and no other player is even in a 10 point range of him. The Liverpool talisman is one of the most consistent players in the world and has been so for years. He has led the charge once again as Liverpool sit pretty on the top of Premier League standings. He has 7 goals and 5 assists in the Premier League this season already. So far there have only been two games in the league this season where he hasn’t scored or assisted. Liverpool’s game this weekend is against Aston Villa and while they are expected to win, it will be a difficult game.
2. Brennan Johnson – Tottenham Hotspur | 47 points | £6.7m
Brennan Johnson has already had a very interesting season. Widely abused by his own fans for some missed chances against Arsenal, Johnson was forced to deactivate his social media. The player that has been seen since is an entirely different level. After that game, he went on a 7 match goalscoring streak, like he had a point to prove. While that ended some time back, he was at it again this last weekend, scoring in Spurs’s 4-1 win over Aston Villa. He has 4 goals and 2 assists this season and will be hoping to add a few more to the tally when Tottenham Hotspur face a winless Ipswich Town this gameweek.
1. Bruno Fernandes – Manchester United | 33 points | £8.2m
Ever since he signed for Manchester United, Bruno Fernandes has been the main man at the club. This season, however, both him and the club have endured a torrid start. However things are looking up with new manager Ruben Amorim joining soon. The two share a common Sporting Club background and Bruno will be eager to impress the new boss. The Portuguese playmaker is beginning to hit form and this weekend’s opponents Leicester City found that out first hand in the Carabao Cup game last week, where he scored twice. He also found the back of the net this weekend against Chelsea. A rich vein of form seems to be coming.
As we gear up for Gameweek 11, the Premier League offers an exciting range of fixtures. The highlight of the weekend is the fiery London derby between Chelsea and Arsenal. Both teams are desperate for a win, and an intense affair is on the cards.
Liverpool, riding a wave of form, host Aston Villa, while Manchester City face a stern test at Brighton’s Amex Stadium. The Citizens will be aiming to break their three game losing streak and get their season back on track.
The deadline for Gameweek 11 is November 9th.
