Five Fantasy Premier League Price Changes Hit Managers Today

Fantasy Premier League managers woke up to five price changes today, with three players rising in value and two experiencing drops. These movements reflect recent form and ownership trends as we head into Gameweek 23.

Price Rises ⬆️

Thiago Leads Brentford's Attack at £7.2m

Brentford's Thiago has risen to £7.2m following impressive recent performances that have caught the attention of 36.1% of FPL managers. The forward has been in excellent form, scoring 17 points against Everton in a 4-2 victory, followed by 12 points in a commanding 3-0 home win over Sunderland. However, his most recent outing saw a quieter 2-point return in Brentford's 2-0 defeat to Chelsea.

Thiago's upcoming fixtures present a mixed bag, starting with a home clash against Nottingham Forest in Gameweek 23, followed by an away trip to Aston Villa. The forward will then face Newcastle at home before tougher tests against Arsenal away and Brighton at home.

Wirtz Joins Liverpool Midfield at £8.3m

Liverpool's new signing Wirtz has seen his price increase to £8.3m despite limited returns since his arrival. The midfielder has managed 10 points in draws against both Fulham (2-2) and Burnley (1-1), with a 3-point return sandwiched between in Liverpool's goalless draw with Arsenal. His ownership currently sits at 12.1% as managers assess his potential in Jurgen Klopp's system.

Liverpool's fixture list looks promising for Wirtz, with a home match against Bournemouth in Gameweek 23, followed by an away trip to Newcastle. The Reds then face Manchester City at home before travelling to Sunderland and hosting Nottingham Forest.

Dorgu Emerges as Budget Defender at £4.3m

Manchester United's Dorgu has risen to £4.3m following a standout performance in their 2-0 victory over Manchester City, where he earned 15 points. The defender's recent form has been inconsistent, managing just 1 point in a 1-1 draw with Leeds and 5 points against Burnley in another 2-2 stalemate. His 7.5% ownership reflects his appeal as a budget defensive option.

United face a challenging run of fixtures, starting with an away trip to Arsenal in Gameweek 23. They then host Fulham before travelling to Tottenham, followed by home matches against West Ham and Everton.

Price Drops ⬇️

Cunha Falls to £8.0m Despite Strong Season

Manchester United's Cunha has dropped to £8.0m despite accumulating 182 points this season, making him one of the top-scoring midfielders. His recent form has been concerning for his 9.0% ownership, with just 9 points against Leeds, 2 points in the draw with Burnley, and 4 points as a substitute in the victory over Manchester City, where he played only 19 minutes.

The midfielder's reduced playing time in recent fixtures will worry managers, particularly given United's upcoming challenging fixture list that mirrors Dorgu's schedule.

Low Ownership Casualties

Wolves midfielder Fer López has fallen to £5.1m with 0.0% ownership, reflecting his limited impact this season.
