GW1 team news: a 75% flag is not a sell signal

2026-08-15

61 players are ruled out for the GW1 deadline and 15 are doubtful. Only two of the doubtful are owned by more than 1%, so most of that list isn't your problem.

Mukiele is the one I'd look at. FPL has him 75% to play, 4.3% own him, and he's still the best six-gameweek projection on the entire doubtful list at 17.0, with the 75% already taken out of the number. The flag costs him less than the panic around it does.

Šeško is the other one over 1%. Same 75%, 2.1% owned, 11.3.

Kroupi is the most owned player who can't play at all, and Bournemouth's cover for him is Tavernier on 26.1. I'd move him and stop reading about it.
