FPL Gameweek 17 Recap: Qatar World Cup Over, FPL Returns

FPL Gameweek 17 Recap: Qatar World Cup Over, FPL Returns

Anddddd breathe! World Cup is finally over, and FPL resumes with all of it’s troubles and also winnings with the iSoccer monthly mini-league.

Chelsea’s five-game losing streak finally came to an end with goals from Kai Havertz (£7.7m) and Mason Mount (£7.5m). However, the victory was overshadowed by Reece James’ injury (£5.8m), which surely gave many FPL managers a nasty case of déjà vu.

Elsewhere, Rashford continued his improved club performances for Man United.

Alongside an enticing first three fixtures back, this attracted a lot of FPL managers back to the 25-year-old.

It took 20 minutes for him to score, as a well-rehearsed corner routine saw Christian Eriksen (£6.3m) pass the ball to Rashford’s cool finish by the penalty spot.

Then, within three minutes, it was a double-digit return. Down the left-hand side, he passed to Martial, whose fairly weak shot went through the defender’s legs and was scrambled over the line by goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey (£3.9m).

FPL’s highest-scoring midfielder, Miguel Almiron (£5.8m), continued his scarcely believable run of form with his ninth goal of the season.

Kieran Trippier (£5.9m) is doing his best to keep pace with his team-mate, contributing his fifth assist of the campaign with the whipped corner that Joelinton (£5.9m) nodded home.

Finally, Haaland (£12.2m) scored twice in Man City’s win over Leeds to take his tally to 20 PL goals.
