As Gameweek 12 approaches, the first 11 weeks of the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) season have delivered some intriguing insights into player performances.
Here are standout statistics to help you optimise your team, with a special focus on FPL player stats.
FPL Player Stats – Gameweek 12
📊 Forward Trends
- Matheus Cunha: Surprisingly, Cunha is the only forward to have taken more than one corner this season, tallying an impressive 24 corners. This unique stat highlights his creative role despite being listed as a forward.
- Danny Welbeck: Ranked 5th among forwards for expected goals (xG) with a total of 5.09. If fit, he could offer excellent value as a differential pick.
🧠 Midfield Maestro Rankings
- Bryan Mbeumo: Consistently delivering, Mbeumo ranks 3rd among midfielders for expected goal involvement (xGI) with a score of 6.60. His dual role as both a creator and scorer keeps him in the must-watch category.
- Phil Foden: A disappointment for many managers, Foden ranks 28th among midfielders for xGI. For context, Marcus Rashford is even further down, at 53rd. These figures may suggest better midfield options are available.
- Brennan Johnson: Among ‘midfielders’, only Mohamed Salah (6.57) has a better xG than Johnson’s impressive 5.21. A name to monitor closely as he continues to thrive in advanced positions.
🎯 Shot Takers
- Antoine Semenyo: The Bournemouth forward has been relentless, registering 47 goal attempts in just 11 appearances. While his conversion may need work, his volume of attempts points to significant potential.
🛡️ Defender Stats
- Leif Davis: Dominating creativity among defenders, Leif Davis has created a league-high 27 chances this season. He’s a standout option for managers seeking a budget-friendly attacking full-back.
With Gameweek 12 on the horizon, leveraging these FPL player stats can give you the edge in identifying potential breakout stars and optimising your lineup. Who will you back to deliver big this week?
