Kevin De Bruyne- 30 points, GW36(DGW), 2021/22 season

Opponents- Newcastle(H), Wolves(A)

Kevin De Bruyne had a quite outing in the first game of the Double Gameweek with just an assist to fetch 6 points despite City winning 5-0. Little did we know it was the calm before the storm. He turned up the heat in the second game against Wolves with a hat trick inside the first 24 minutes. It is to be noted that all the three goals came up from his so called ‘Weaker left foot’. KDB went on to complete his rout with the 4th goal in the 60 minute. It was a massive swing in the KDB vs Salah Captaincy call with Salah returning with just 6 points(vs 60 KDB points) after being rested for a game. It was one of those weeks where our captaincy model also predicted to captain De Bruyne over Mo Salah.

Note- De Bruyne was owned by just 12% managers and Salah was owned by 58% managers during that week.

Fun Fact-

De Bruyne picked up a late yellow card in the 78th minute vs Wolves and also hit the post with a very late chance in the 89th minute. If that didn’t happen De Bruyne would have a got a record equaling 5th goal and the All Time FPL record with 36 FPL points in a Gameweek.

Mo Salah 29 points, GW31 2017/18 Season (SGW)

All of the above highest scores from a gameweek were a double gameweek and the enters Mo Salah. 29 Points in a single gameweek, which was a big blank due to FA Cup. Four goals and an assist against Watford at Anfield in a 5-0 victory(2017/18 season). A record IMO very hard to break in a single gameweek.

Salah ended the season with 303 points making him the only player to score more than 300 points in an FPL Season overtaking Suarez who scored 295 points in the 13/14 season, stay tuned Suarez makes an appearance below.

Raheem Sterling 28 points, GW36(DGW), 2021/22 Season

Opponents- Newcastle(H), Wolves(A)

Sterling has always been a great pick in FPL, provided you know when to get him in. He is also capable of getting those double digit hauls and also the binary scores(0 and 1). There is no in between for Raheem Sterling. GW36 in 2021/22 season turned out to a unforgettable one(in the right way) for 2.4% owned FPL managers at that time. 2 goals(16 points) vs Newcastle and 1 goal, 1 assist(12 points) vs Wolves helped Sterling to reach his 50th Double Digit Haul.

2,0,2,3- These were last 4 GW scores from GW32-GW35 of Sterling before the monster 28 point haul in GW36. Sterling being typical Sterling got 23 points from the last 9 games before facing Wolves and Newcastle in GW36 where he went on to fetch is career best 28 FPL points.

Mo Salah 28 points, GW26, 2021/22 Season(DGW)

Mo Salah being himself makes a reappearance in the list with a 28 points haul, this time tho was from a double gameweek with games against Leeds and Norwich at Anfield. Salah scored once against Norwich and then got an assist and a brace in the second game totaling 28 points(10 points vs Norwich and 18 points vs Leeds)

Salah scored two penalties and assisted in the first 35 minutes of the game vs Leeds and the hopes amongst FPL managers that Rooney’s record was going to be broken by Salah but he didn’t score or assist in the second half but Mane scored a late brace to steal a bonus point from Salah as well. Had Salah got all three bonus he would have equaled his record of 29 points from the 2017/18 season.

John Arne Riise vs WBA, 27 points 2004-05 Season(SGW)

I get that all of you were expecting Trent Alexander Arnold but we run down the years to another Liverpool Legend, John Arne Riise who scored 2 goals, registered two assists, and kept a clean sheet in a 5-0 win over West Brom on Boxing day in 2004. The only other goal which did not involve Riise was a direct free kick from Gerrard.

“I don’t think I have ever played in a match where we have dominated so much against another Premier League side. I was almost possessed with the thought of scoring a hat-trick.”

John Arne Riise after the game

Riise’s haul was not a one-off, during his time at Liverpool the LB scored 21 goals and made 30 assists. He scored six or more goals in three seasons at Liverpool.

If you’re wondering about Trent, don’t worry he’s coming up soon as you scroll down!

He got 4 goals, 2 assists and 4 clean sheets during this run.

Fun Fact: Manchester City had a penalty late in the game vs Fulham when City were leading 4-0. Gvardiol was offered to take the penalty to complete his hattrick, but he declined it and gave it to the regular taker. If he had taken that and scored it, Gvardiol would have finished with 33 points- Most Points by any player in a Gameweek in FPL.

Theo Walcott, 26 points vs Newcastle, GW20 2012/13 Season (SGW)

Walcott had some memorable moments during his time at Arsenal.

Cesc Fabregas 24 pointsvs Blackburn, GW8 2009/10 Season(SGW)

An all-time PL great, Fabregas registered an insane four assists in a single game, best thing was that it wasn’t FPL assists but legit PL assists, the Spanish midfielder also scored goal playing a part in five of the six goals Arsene Wenger’s men scored that day. He assisted Vermaelen, Robin Van Persie, Arshavin, and Walcott with lord Bendtner scoring too assisted by Ramsey. What a star-studded Arsenal lineup.

Fabregas later in GW22 of the season had a double and played against Bolton Wanderers twice, scoring two goals and an assist in 2-0 and 4-2 wins totaling 24 points. Same points but the glory of 24 points from a single gameweek with four assists is unmatched.

Bolasie, 24 points vs Sunderland, 2014/15 Season (sgw)

He was taken off in the 71 st minute bagging a CS point as well but Sunderland scored in the 90th-minute meaning had he stayed on the pitch for the full 90 minutes he would have lost a point, but who knows the extra 19 minutes could have got him another return or two!

The assist was for a Glen Murray goal and was just an FPL assist and not a PL assist as it was a deflected cross.

Conor Wickham scored the goal for Sunderland that day assisted by Patrick Van Aanholt who both went on to play for Palace later.

The highest-scoring goalkeeper in a single gameweek based on our research should be Gomes who scored 21 points.

Gomes 21 points vs WBA, WHU GW34, 2015/16 Season (DGW)

Gomes was an FPL legend and saved two penalties in one game against West Brom in GW34 of the 2015/16 season, both of them were taken by Sadio Berahino, Gomes rushed out of the box, and fouled Berahino to give away the first pen but eventually saved it. He also played in the second game which was a 3-1 loss to West Ham. Summing up both the games in the double gameweek, Gomes registered 21 points.

He has previously also saved two penalties in a game while playing for Spurs. It was a 3-1 loss to Sunderland with Sunderland’s Striker Bent who played for Spurs previously scored one penalty but missed two to Gomes. A certain Luka Modric played for Spurs in that game.

Jussi Jaaskelainen(for Bolton Wanderers against Blackburn Rovers) and Brad Friedel(For Blackburn rovers against Sheffield United) both also have previously saved two penalties and kept a CS but we cannot verify how many FPL points they registered in the game. Both the game were just a month from each other in the 2006/07 season. Stekelenburg(For Everton) and Van Der Sar(For Fulham) have also saved two penalties in a game but didn’t keep a clean sheet.
