after a wild GW23 that saw Manchester United stun Arsenal, Manchester City bench both Phil Foden and Erling Haaland, Bournemouth shock Liverpool, and struggling West Ham hit three past Sunderland, the long-awaited fixture swings are here, writes Fantasy Premier League expert Blake Hurst. This is the turning point FPL managers have been anticipating: those with a solid transfer plan can jump ahead, while others panic as form and fixtures flip overnight.
Yes, he's been quiet recently, but if you still own him, he's a definite hold for the next two fixtures. First up, a trip to Old Trafford against a Manchester United side with just one win in seven and one clean sheet in their last 15 - that's not exactly defensive form to fear. Foden also loves a derby, with seven goals in his last seven appearances against United.
Chelsea are set to make an attacking midfielder a priority in the transfer market in the coming year after missing out on Xavi Simons in the summer, CaughtOffside understands. The Blues had a busy summer bringing in exciting talents such as Jamie Gittens, Joao Pedro, Liam Delap, Jorrel Hato and Alejandro Garnacho, but their recruitment team continues to be busy assessing future targets.
Exclusive: Liverpool have a clause in the Harvey Elliot to Aston Villa contract which allows them to meet the Morgan Rogers asking price and get his signature as early as January. Release clause only for Liverpool with Morgan rogers being extremely keen to make the move. Unclear on the price at the moment. Big one. Morgan Rogers to be Liverpool's next big signing?
Rogers has been exceptional for Aston Villa over the last 12 months, and he has established himself as one of the best playmakers in the league. He was rightly chosen as the PFA Young Player of the Year as well. Chelsea have been linked with Rogers as well. The midfielder has also attracted interest from Tottenham. It will be interesting to see if Arsenal come forward with an offer to sign him.
