GW6 Deadline Alert: Hall's 13-Point Haul, A Shock Captain Pick & The Player 120K Are Dumping Fast

Welcome back, and thanks for subscribing to Who Got The Points. You've got everything you need right here to get your Gameweek 6 squad sorted before that Saturday deadline. Let's get straight into it.

Before we get into transfers, here are the headlines you need to know heading into Gameweek 6:

Hall was absolutely electric in Gameweek 5, scoring a goal and picking up three bonus points for a massive 13-point haul. He now has 1 goal and 1 assist this season, 31 total points, and a form rating of 7.0.

Newcastle face Coventry City on Monday 12th October - an excellent fixture on paper. With over 229,000 transfers in already this week, ownership is climbing fast.

Gvardiol is the highest-scoring defender in the game so far with 37 total points and a points-per-game of 7.4. He has 1 goal, 3 assists, and 2 clean sheets this season - exceptional output from a defender at his price.

He picked up 4 points in Gameweek 5 with an assist despite Man City conceding three. In Gameweek 6, Man City travel to Liverpool - a tough game on paper, but Gvardiol's attacking threat makes him a viable pick regardless of the result. Over 135,000 transfers in this week.

Flying completely under the radar, Belloumi has quietly put together an outstanding season - 2 goals, 2 assists, and 3 clean sheets. His expected points for Gameweek 6 are 7.0, the highest of any player we're highlighting this week.

Hull host Everton on Sunday 11th October - a very winnable fixture. Nearly 70,000 transfers in already this week, but at just 5% ownership, he's still a genuine differential. At £5.1m, the value is exceptional.

If you want to dig deeper into value picks like Belloumi, our bargain players tool highlights the best budget options across all positions this week.

The big one. Over 120,000 managers have already shipped Mbeumo out this week, and his price has dropped as a result. He only managed 2 points in Gameweek 5, and while Man Utd face Spurs at home in GW6, Mbeumo hasn't delivered the consistent returns you'd expect from a nearly £8m asset.

Rogers played the full 90 minutes in Gameweek 5 but only returned 2 points. Chelsea face Bournemouth in Gameweek 6, which looks decent on paper, but Rogers has blanked across multiple gameweeks now. He has 3 goals and 1 assist this season but isn't delivering the consistent weekly returns you need at £7.7m. Over 64,000 transfers out already this week despite being one of the most heavily owned players in FPL.

Calafiori is the most owned player in the game at 50.5%, but he only returned 1 point in Gameweek 5 after Brighton dismantled Arsenal 3-0. Arsenal do host Leeds in Gameweek 6, which should be a far better fixture, but that Brighton defeat raises real questions about Arsenal's defensive solidity right now.

On the positive side, he has 3 clean sheets and 2 assists this season and remains a quality asset. Leeds away is a difficult trip for the visitors, so Arsenal should be well-positioned to keep a clean sheet.

Looking to steal a march in your mini-leagues? Here are three under-the-radar picks who could deliver big in Gameweek 6.

Three goals already this season for a midfielder at £6.1m - that's outstanding value. Bournemouth face Chelsea in Gameweek 6, with the fixture difficulty rated 4 for the away side, meaning Bournemouth are expected to be competitive. His form rating is 5.2 and he's been picking up over 74,000 transfers in this week.

Buendía bagged 12 points in Gameweek 5 - a goal, full 90 minutes, and three bonus points. According to our player data, he has 1 goal and 1 assist this season with 14 total points. Aston Villa host Brentford on Saturday 10th October and are in decent form after beating Spurs 2-3.

At under 1% ownership, if he delivers again in GW6, you'll be cleaning up across your mini-leagues. High risk, high reward.

Gakpo has 1 goal and 3 assists this season, averaging 6.4 points per game. Liverpool have the big one in Gameweek 6 - Liverpool vs Man City at home on Sunday 11th October. That's a fixture where goals will flow and Gakpo is right in the mix. He picked up 3 points in Gameweek 5 with a clean sheet. Under 15% ownership makes him a genuine differential for a game that will define many mini-league weeks.

Our captain recommendation for Gameweek 6 is Gvardiol from Man City - yes, really.

Man City face Liverpool at Anfield, which sounds like a scary armband choice, but Gvardiol's attacking output this season is unmatched among defenders. At 7.4 points per game, with 3 assists and always a threat going forward, he's more than just a defensive asset. In a high-stakes game with both sides committed to attack, bonus points and attacking returns are very much on the cards.

One key tip for Gameweek 6 - Hull City are quietly one of the best value teams in FPL right now:

At their respective price points, Hull assets represent some of the best value in the game heading into Gameweek 6. Don't overlook them.
