The big names have come out to play. Erling Haaland, Rayan Cherki, Alexander Isak, Cole Palmer, Joao Pedro and Bukayo Saka were all amongst the goals, but none got near Bruno Fernandes massive 23 point haul.

Hull City with Danny MacDonald | Correspondent Week ep. 7 | Planet FPL 2026/27
In the eyes of many neutrals Championship Play Off winners Hull City have got no chance. Some bad underlying numbers from last season, a thin and inexperience top level squad, injuries galore and a rough opening run of fixtures.
