IMPROVE SOON RAÚL

Wolves’ 2-1 victory over Arsenal was overshadowed by a Raul Jimenez (£ 8.3 million), which looks set for an extended run on the sidelines.

The Mexican forward suffered a severe blow to the head from David Luiz (£ 5.5 million) and required treatment on the court for 10 minutes before being taken to hospital.

On Monday, the club’s official website revealed that Jiménez had fractured his skull and had undergone a successful operation overnight.

“He’s doing a scan now but he’s conscious, he’s fine. We are concerned, of course. He talks, he’s conscious, but he’s doing a scan and now we need to have a proper evaluation. He is in good hands. “- Nuno Espirito Santo

“Raúl feels comfortable after an operation last night, which he underwent in a London hospital. Since then he has seen his partner Daniela and is now resting. You will remain under observation for a few days while your recovery begins. The club would like to thank the Arsenal medical staff, the NHS paramedics, the hospital staff and the surgeons who, thanks to their skill and prompt response, were very helpful ”. – Declaration of the wolves

During his two and a half years at Wolves, Jiménez has quickly become a cult Fantasy hero, so it goes without saying that everyone at FFScout wishes him a speedy recovery and the best of health.

BACK OF THE NET

It is to the Wolves’ credit that they were able to focus after witnessing such a serious injury that happened to one of their colleagues.

“We were extremely concerned when it happened, you knew immediately that it was serious. We hope David Luiz is doing well too. It was a horrible head butt, this happens in football, but you don’t like to see it. You have to [refocus]. We had 80 minutes left of the game, so you have to do it. You are going to play and you hope to get the victory for Raúl. We had to do it for him, he’s a huge part of this football club, he’s a great friend to each and every one of us in that locker room. “- Conor Coady

Pedro Neto (£ 5.5m) was the foremost of these as he was involved in both Wolves goals, his 13-point loot making him the club’s highest-scoring FPL asset for the season.

In fact, it was also enough to propel the Portuguese international into the top 10 scorers among all midfielders and, more importantly, he is also the cheapest among them.

Costing just £ 5.5 million, Neto has offered 9.3 points per million spent in 2020/21, 1.9 more than a similarly priced colleague. Daniel Podence (£ 5.4m), who also scored his second goal of the season against Arsenal.

With Liverpool (away) and Chelsea (home) two of the Wolves’ next three opponents, and Spurs (home) and Manchester United (away) waiting in game weeks 15 and 16, it’s a little while for them to Wolves attackers are back on our radar. .

However, Nuno’s men face Brighton (away), Everton (home) and West Bromwich Albion (home) between weeks 17 and 19, when their attack might be more viable.

In that moment, we may have seen enough Fabio Silva (£ 5.2 million), who replaced Jimenez as center forward on Sunday, to assess his credentials as a Fantasy asset.

PAIN IN THE ARSENAL

Ahead of the Gameweek 11 North London derby, Tottenham asset owners will have been licking their lips at yet another nefarious performance by Arsenal, although the data is not simple enough to warrant full endorsement of Harry Kane (£ 10.9 million) and Son Heung-min (9.5 million pounds sterling) for the captaincy.

The Gunners offered very little against the Wolves and have now lost five of their first 10 league games of the season, three of which now come home.

Interestingly, Arsenal have fared slightly better away from home so far this season, albeit only on defense.

They have allowed eight league goals in five games at Emirates Stadium in 2020/21 so far (1.6 per game) but, having played the same number on the road, Mikel Arteta’s men have conceded just four goals (0, 8 per game). During the first 10 weeks of the game, only Spurs and Aston Villa themselves have been that solid away from home.

However, where Arteta has tried to squeeze the ship at the Arsenal, her attack remains nothing short of completely anemic.

As a result, the owners of Spurs’ defensive assets might be a bit more encouraged considering Arsenal’s point man. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£ 11.6m) has just two goals this season and the Gunners themselves have found the net in just two games since Gameweek 5.

“It’s something that the day I decided to be a coach I knew that one day I would be fired or left the football club, but I don’t know when it will happen. In this profession, I know it will happen, but I never worry about it. My only concern is getting the best out of the players and giving the best possible service to the club ”. – Mikel Arteta.

Arsenal XI (4-2-3-1): Log; Tierney, Gabriel, D Luiz (Holding 46 ′), Bellerín; Xhaka (Lacazette 80 ‘), Ceballos; Saka, Willock, Willian (Nelson 65 ‘); Aubameyang.

Wolves XI (4-2-3-1): Patrick; Marçal, Coady, Boly, Semedo; Moutinho, Dendoncker; Neto, Podence (Neves 70 ′), Traoré; Jiménez (F Silva 15 ′ | Kilman 78 ′).
