Our verdict on Gomes
Chosen Esiwe
Joao Gomes has been in the Aston Villa starting eleven for 5 of their 8 league matches, staying on for 73 minutes on average. He starts most weeks, though not every week. At £5.5m and owned by just 0.1% of managers, he is a genuine differential.
Over the last 30 days he has averaged 3.0 points a game, which puts him 49th out of 159 regular midfielders. He is comfortably in the top half. Underneath the points, his expected goal involvement of 0.07 per 90 minutes ranks 135th in the same group. His returns trail what his chances suggest, which often means better weeks are on the way.
He costs exactly what he did at the start of the season.
Over the next five gameweeks he faces FUL (H), MUN (A), SUN (H), IPS (A) and EVE (H). There is nothing there to be afraid of.
Every figure here comes from the official Fantasy Premier League data and refreshes as the week goes on. We judge minutes first, then form against others in the same position, price movement and the next five fixtures.
