**Best of the Bees: Key Players to Watch**
Yoane Wissa (£6.9m) emerged as a standout performer, turning heads with his impressive record. After narrowly missing a goal in Gameweek 36, Wissa bounced back with a stellar **goal, assist, and two bonus points** against Fulham, racking up a remarkable total of **10 points** for his 2.57 million owners. This marked his **19th goal of the season**, solidifying his position as a top contender!
An equally impressive teammate, Bryan Mbeumo (£8.3m), also netted his **19th goal** this season, following a brilliant set-up from Wissa. While he faced disappointment from a penalty miss, his right-footed strike remains a pivotal moment in his season.
Defensively, keep an eye on **Michael Kayode** (£4.5m). His long throws can create havoc, echoing the chaos seen during the **4-3 win over Manchester United**, where a throw led to Wissa tapping in a header from **Christian Nørgaard** (£4.8m).
**The Spotlight: Rising Stars**
The excitement continues with **Mikkel Damsgaard** (£4.9m), who has proven to be a crucial playmaker. In Gameweek 37, he crafted his **third big chance in just four matches**. Had Wissa’s subsequent shot found the back of the net, it would’ve been his **11th assist** of the season. With a thrilling history—including a **5-3 clash against Wolves**—Damsgaard is set for an exciting performance in Molineux this weekend.
At just 24, Damsgaard has become a starter in **33 of his last 35 outings**, showcasing his potential and playmaking prowess with **62 chances created**, positioning him among the league’s elite!
**Best of the Rest: Unsung Heroes**
Don’t overlook defenders like Ezri Konsa (£4.4m) and Marc Cucurella (£5.4m), both of whom shone with a Friday night goal and a clean sheet, collecting maximum bonus points. Aston Villa is currently riding a wave of **three consecutive shutouts**, while Cucurella is enjoying an offensive resurgence, netting **15 points** from seven home matches!
Iliman Ndiaye (£5.2m) made headlines with a brace at Goodison Park, while James Justin (£4.1m) contributed to Leicester’s success by keeping a clean sheet and assisting **Jamie Vardy**’s milestone **200th goal**.
**In Demand: Transfer Strategies**
As the deadline approaches, the simultaneous matches create an atmosphere of **anticipation and uncertainty**. This is particularly true for players like Alexander Isak (£9.5m) and William Saliba (£6.5m). Many managers may opt to delay their transfers until the last possible moment, especially with crucial injuries looming.
The deadline for Gameweek 38 is **2.30 PM BST on Sunday, May 25**. If Isak is unavailable, expect **Ollie Watkins** (£9.1m)’s stock to soar. Don’t overlook **Evanilson** (£5.8m) and midfielders from Bournemouth, especially with a favorable home match against Leicester.
**Captaincy: The Final Call**
Choosing the right captain could be the difference between triumph and despair. If you’re shielding a strong rank, consider a fully fit Isak or Bukayo Saka (£10.3m) facing Southampton. The consistent **Mohamed Salah** (£13.6m) also shines brightly, playing at home against Crystal Palace.
For those considering a bold gamble, **Jarrod Bowen** (£7.8m) is on fire, approaching this week’s matchup against Ipswich with **four goals and two assists** in his last five outings. A calculated risk may yield magnificent rewards!
With these insights in mind, **gear up for a thrilling Gameweek 38** and may your FPL strategies lead you to glory!
