Our verdict on O'Shea
Chosen Esiwe
Dara O'Shea has started 8 of Ipswich Town's 8 league games this season and averages 90 minutes when he does. That is about as secure as a starting place gets. He costs £4.0m and sits in 2.9% of teams.
His FPL form, the average points per game over the last 30 days, stands at 5.3. That ranks 9th of 135 defenders who are playing regularly. Very few at his position are scoring more right now. He has 0 clean sheets and 3 bonus points so far. 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 HUL (A), BOU (H), TOT (A), AVL (H) and COV (A). That is a fair run of games.
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.
