Official FPL status, match record and listed set-piece orderVerbruggen's 9-point return came through clean-sheet and bonus routes in 90 minutes. Season xGI is 0.20, or 0.03 per 90. That is the part to compare with the next two starts.
79,443 net transfers in is a major market move. With ownership already at 22.1%, buying now is partly a protection decision; the minutes and role still decide whether it is a good one.
Home to Crystal Palace is an inviting FDR 2 spot for clean-sheet and save-volume routes. The model lands on 5.2 points; use that as a one-week baseline, not the whole transfer case.
