FPL General is back for another round of Fantasy Premier League advice, with Gameweek 6’s focus being on must-have Wildcard picks for your teams.

As the FPL season progresses, it’s time to start thinking about your wildcard strategy.

This powerful tool allows you to make wholesale changes to your squad, giving you a fresh start and the opportunity to capitalise on in-form players and favourable fixtures.

Here are five must-have players to consider building your new squad around:

FPL General’s Gameweek 6 Wildcard Picks

David Raya (Arsenal – £5.6m)

Raya has been a standout performer for Arsenal this season, consistently making saves and earning bonus points. His ability to contribute points from both clean sheets and saves makes him a valuable asset to any FPL team. With enough cheap enablers in other positions, you can afford to splurge on a premium goalkeeper like Raya.

Gabriel (Arsenal – £6.1m)

Gabriel’s threat from set pieces makes him a constant goal threat. His defensive solidity and ability to contribute attacking returns make him a valuable asset to any FPL team.

Bukayo Saka (Arsenal – £10.0m)

Saka has been in excellent form for Mikel Arteta’s side this season, and his fixtures improve significantly from Gameweek 6 onwards. He’s a consistent performer and a great captaincy option, particularly around Gameweek 6.

Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford – £7.2m)

Mbeumo is Brentford’s talisman, taking all their set pieces and contributing regularly with attacking returns from open play. His long-term fixtures are also favourable, making him a great option for your FPL squad.

Erling Haaland (Manchester City – £15.3m)

Haaland’s goal-scoring record is simply phenomenal. With 10 goals in just 5 games, he’s an automatic captaincy pick every week.

By building your new squad around these players, you’ll be well-positioned for success in the FPL. Remember to consider your team’s overall balance and to be flexible as the season progresses. Good luck!
