Three gameweeks in, and the ownership charts are already shifting. These numbers are small samples, not season verdicts, but the early trends are worth tracking closely.
Top of the list
Gakpo leads the risers with 28 points from 250 minutes, a 9.3 form score and a return of 1 goal, 3 assists and a clean sheet. His selection sits at just 12.7%, which suggests plenty of managers are still weighing up whether to bring him in after this start.
Isak has been the most productive forward on this list, with 3 goals in 243 minutes and 23 points overall. His 19.1% selection and 7.7 form put him firmly in the conversation, and the 5 bonus points collected show he’s been involved in the game’s key moments, not just on the scoresheet.
Rogers rounds out the top three with 19 points from 257 minutes, 2 goals and an assist. His form of 6.3 is the lowest of this trio, but a 27.2% ownership shows managers are already reacting to the early returns.
Strong contenders
Wissa has 13 points and a goal, assist and clean sheet combination in 261 minutes, with ownership at 16.6% and a modest 4.3 form. Palmer has posted 21 points with 2 goals and an assist, a 7.0 form and 21.0% selection. De Cuyper is the standout defensive riser, with 21 points, 1 goal, 2 assists and a clean sheet from 243 minutes, at just 18.8% ownership. Konsa is the outlier here, with only 5 points from 101 minutes and a 1.7 form, still picked up by 12.4% of managers on early signal rather than returns.
Watch list
- Calafiori: 22 points, 2 clean sheets, 2 assists, and already the most-owned name here at 47.0%.
- Hall: 18 points and a clean sheet in 269 minutes, form of 6.0, ownership still low at 11.1%.
- João Pedro: the standout ownership figure on this entire list at 72.0%, backed by 21 points, 2 goals and 2 assists.
- Ødegaard: 24 points and 6 bonus points in just 221 minutes, a 8.0 form, but only 12.3% ownership.
- Cherki: 25 points and 2 goals, 2 assists in 173 minutes, an efficient 8.3 form with 30.5% selection.
Verdict
The overall winner among this group is Isak, whose 3 goals and 5 bonus points in 243 minutes give the clearest goalscoring signal at 19.1% ownership. The best-value pick is De Cuyper, a £4.7m defender with 21 points and a goal, 2 assists and a clean sheet, numbers that would be notable at any price. The sleeper pick is Ødegaard, whose 24 points and 6 bonus points have come while sitting at just 12.3% ownership, the kind of gap between output and selection that tends to close fast if the form holds over the next few gameweeks.
