Key takeaways from Leeds vs Arsenal:

Leeds:

• Raphinha has scored 3 in last 5; all from penalty spots
• First team was made up of 19 players (one of the smallest in the PL) and only 10 of those were available – includes both goalkeepers so really only 9 could possibly play
• Their bench contained a back-up GK, Summerville (164 mins)
• Then 7 youth players who collectively had made a total of 20 1st-team minutes before GW18
• FPL Cue: Raphinha seems to be still the only FPL asset worth considering their next 4 games against AVL & BUR at home

Arsenal:

• 12 goals scored in last 5; 6 goals conceded
• Martinelli (5.3m) now 4G / 3A for the season
• Saka (6.3m) now 3G / 5A for the season
• ESR (6.1m)  now 7G / 2A for the season
• Over the last 10 GWs, ARS have created more xG from corners and set pieces (5.83) than both CHE (5.22) & WHU (5.61)
• FPL Cue: Martinelli at 5.3 a must now!!
