Ibe become the first player of the season to come off the bench and be awarded the man of the match following his two assists to give Bournemouth a 2-1 win. Aguero scores the first hattrick of the season to register the highest individual weekly score by a player.

Bournemouth picking up 5 passing awards means they break into the top four, and this takes them to joint 7th for the season.

There were 118 bonus points distributed this week, around 50% higher than the previous week’s 84.  The points were dominated by midfielders based on the number of appearances.

Seeing H Arter near the top of the bonus points table, is he somebody to consider in the future?  Below is a scatter-plot of all midfielders who have played at least 3 games, giving average points per game by value, that can be generate from the toolkit.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-1717" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/fig-6.png" alt="" width="706" height="401" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/fig-6.png 662w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/fig-6-300x170.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 706px) 100vw, 706px" />
H Arter is the big red spot. This means that even though he scores well on bonus points he’s picking up little elsewhere (apart from 2 yellows).  This could be partly explained by Bournemouth’s low goal count.  Digging deeper I note that Arter has not yet had a shot on target and only one key pass.  So presently, is not somebody I will be keeping a close eye on.
My teams
My plan was to keep transfers to a minimum after the overhaul.  However, in my second team with Pogba being injured, this forced a transfer.  I ended up going for Fabregas, turning down options such as Eriksen.  I know that Fabregas isn’t a certain starter, but I needed to gamble slightly, I could wait until team sheets where announced so 100% of a game this week, it frees up cash for flexibility later, and finally would give me cover for the Chelsea v Watford game.
Hope you all had good weeks and leave your best players in the comments below.
