Keepers

6 Is the number of both Save points and bonus points Built by Sunderland’s Robin Roefs (£ 4.5 million), most goalkeeper so far in both categories.

The young Dutchman has also saved three clean sheets, only admitted four times (the second least among those who have started every game so far) and saved a fine. Together this is currently making him the best FPL scorer in his position. In fact, only five outfielders have more than 39 points from Rooef.

To give others some attention, let’s mention two more of his remarkable leading statistics: Avoid expected goals (XG) (+2.60) and the share of shots on stored goal (87%, 20 out of 23).

50% of the ‘great opportunities’ defined by Opta confronted with Djordje Petrovic (£ 4.5 million) – four of the eight – have been saved. This is the most for every FPL goalkeeper to have appeared in most games. The Bournemouth shot stopper is followed by Nick Pope (£ 5.0 million, 42.9%) and Jordan Pickford (5.5 m, 40%).

+1.30 Prevent XG In two competition performances (road to Newcastle and Tottenham) suggests Sam Johnstone (£ 4.5 million) is perhaps the right man for Wolverhampton Wanderers, instead of Jose Sa (£ 4.4 million), whose -3.70 is a competition low.

Johnstone has saved both big chances and only admitted twice, so they almost achieved a first victory last weekend.
