FPL Price Changes: Key Updates for the Upcoming Gameweek

As Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers prepare for the upcoming gameweek, it's crucial to stay informed about the latest price changes. These adjustments can impact your budget and strategy, so let's dive into which players are set to rise or fall in value and what it means for your team.

Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa)

• Price Change: Set to fall from £5.7m
  
• Transfer Activity: 134,019 sales this gameweek
  
• Form: 1.6
  
• Ownership: 25.2%

Morgan Rogers has seen a significant dip in form, with a current score of just 1.6. This has led to a mass exodus of 134,019 transfers out this week. With such high ownership, his price drop could impact many teams. Aston Villa's upcoming fixtures may not provide immediate relief, making it a sensible move for managers to look elsewhere for midfield options.

Cody Gakpo (Liverpool)

• Price Change: Set to fall from £7.5m
  
• Transfer Activity: 80,972 sales this gameweek
  
• Form: 4.0
  
• Ownership: 12.3%

Despite a decent form score of 4.0, Cody Gakpo is set to see a price drop. Liverpool's mixed fixtures and Gakpo's inconsistent returns have likely contributed to the decision of nearly 81,000 managers to offload him. Managers should monitor his performance closely in the upcoming games.

Marcus Rashford (Aston Villa)

• Price Change: Set to rise from £6.7m
  
• Transfer Activity: 47,552 purchases this gameweek
  
• Form: 3.6
  
• Ownership: 5.1%

Marcus Rashford is in demand, with 47,552 managers bringing him into their squads, leading to a price increase. His form has been solid, and Aston Villa's favorable upcoming fixtures make him an appealing option. Managers looking for a differential pick with rising form should consider Rashford.

Phil Foden (Man City)

• Price Change: Set to fall from £9.3m
  
• Transfer Activity: 22,143 sales this gameweek
  
• Form: 3.5
  
• Ownership: 6.9%

Phil Foden's price is on the decline, with over 22,000 managers opting to transfer him out. His form of 3.5 is not poor, but rotation risk under Pep Guardiola and City's challenging fixtures may have influenced managers' decisions. Foden's fantasy value remains high, but caution is advised.

Kai Havertz (Arsenal)

• Price Change: Set to fall from £7.8m
  
• Transfer Activity: 6,358 sales this gameweek
  
• Form: 3.5
  
• Ownership: 6.3%

Kai Havertz is another player whose price is set to decline. Arsenal's recent matches have not seen Havertz shine, leading to his decreased popularity among FPL managers. With Arsenal's schedule offering both opportunities and challenges, managers should weigh their options carefully.

Ezri Konsa Ngoyo (Aston Villa)

• Price Change: Set to fall from £4.4m
  
• Transfer Activity: 2,014 sales this gameweek
  
• Form: 1.0
  
• Ownership: 5.5%

Ezri Konsa's form of 1.0 and his impending price drop reflect his struggles on the pitch. With over 2,000 managers opting out, his value in FPL terms is questionable, especially with Aston Villa's defensive frailties being exposed in recent games.

Idrissa Gueye (Everton)

• Price Change: Set to fall from £4.8m
  
• Transfer Activity: 1,615 sales this gameweek
  
• Form: 2.0
  
• Ownership: 0.5%

Idrissa Gueye's potential price decrease is not surprising given his low form and limited ownership. As Everton continue to struggle, his appeal as a budget midfielder remains low, and managers may need to look elsewhere for value.

Fabian Schär (Newcastle)

• Price Change: Set to fall from £5.4m
  
• Transfer Activity: 1,081 sales this gameweek
  
• Form: 1.0
  
• Ownership: 1.5%

Fabian Schär's drop in price is linked to his poor form and Newcastle's recent defensive woes. Despite his ability to score from set-pieces, managers are moving away, seeking more consistent defensive returns.

Conclusion

As these price changes come into effect, FPL managers should consider the form, fixtures, and potential returns of their players. Whether to hold, sell, or bring in new talent depends on the overall strategy and the team's current setup. Staying ahead of price changes can offer a competitive edge, allowing you to maximise your budget and make informed decisions for the upcoming gameweeks.
