Scrolling through the mini league is probably something like Deja Vu. The same old name everywhere. And while it’s nothing wrong, it rarely helps you stand out.
Most advice columns go down the “free hit” route and trade whole teams that don’t actually change. Or tell you to Captain Erling Haaland (100% correct, of course).
We do things differently. Every week we offer three fresh differences:
There is no safe choice. There is no copy paste advice. Only low-owned players who can explode.
One note of note: the next international break will arrive after this game week. Rolling this week’s transfer might be a smarter play. You are being warned!
Reminder: The GameWeek 7 deadline is Friday, October 3rd, at 18:30 BST – Yes, it’s a scary Friday night deadline. good? Let’s crack it.
1. Omar Alderae, £4.1 million (Defender, Sunderland, 5.4%)

At the beginning of the season we were targeting Sunderland points – now we’re targeting Sunderland players. The Black Cat only admitted four goals. He has collected defensive contribution points in four consecutive games, scoring the previous points, ranking fourth among Sunderland players.
The trip to Old Trafford sounds tough, but this United is not Ferguson’s United. Burnley (GW8) and Everton (GW10) first have Alderete- or teammates Granit Xhaka (£5.0m) and Wilson Isidor (£5.6m) – it looks like a smart route.
2. Jorgenstrandlersen, £6.4 million (forward, wolf, 1.5%)

There are no goals. No assist. Play with a team with 1 point starting from 6 games. Madness? Probably, but here’s a way.
Jorgenstrandlersen counts the number of wolves shots despite limited time. Brighton and Burnley are the next two home fixtures and have no clean sheets stored throughout the season, so you have a chance. If you like gambling, this might be the week.
And if you’re not sure, maybe this other forward can seduce you…
3. Dominique Calver Trewin, £5.5 million (forward, Leeds, 1.0%)

Dominique Calvert Lewin

Yes, I flipped him over last week. Yes, he was blank. But Dominique Calvert Lewin remains a sharp difference.
The Spurs arrive at Elland Road, behind a trip across the Arctic, and equipment against Burnley and West Ham – two of the worst defenses in the league – after an international break, the schedule is seduced.
Anton Stach (£5 million) shoots most often for Leeds, but it’s Calvert-Lewin who consistently found his target (6 from 7 attempts). He missed four big opportunities this season – only Haaland and Jean-Philippe Mateta miss more – but it highlights how often he is in the right position. We know that the patience here can be rewarded, as he can be ruthless from his Everton days.
