Our verdict on Thiaw
Chosen Esiwe
Malick Thiaw has started 7 of Newcastle's 8 league games this season and averages 90 minutes when he does. His spot in the side looks safe. At £5.0m and owned by just 1.8% of managers, he is a genuine differential.
His FPL form, the average points per game over the last 30 days, stands at 0.7. That ranks 96th of 135 defenders who are playing regularly. He is struggling for points at the moment. He has 1 clean sheet and 0 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. He has lost 7,541 net transfers this gameweek.
Over the next five gameweeks he faces EVE (H), FUL (A), ARS (H), BHA (A) and MUN (H). That is a tough run, and points will be harder to come by.
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.
