Premier League Round 6: How the Picks Stacked Up

With Round 6 picks now locked for Premier League, here's where the crowd landed.

Last Man Standing

Arsenal topped the table, but only just — 43% of players went that way, with the rest scattered elsewhere.

Behind the leader, a few other sides picked up support: Chelsea with 16%, Newcastle United at 12%, Brighton & Hove Albion at 8%.

Safety nets were barely needed this round, with just 2% of players opting to use one. Barely moved from last round's 1%.

72% of this round's picks went with the home team — familiar surroundings clearly counted for something.

The picks weren't concentrated on just a couple of sides: 85% of this round's teams got at least one selection.

Pick 5

Pick 5 managers for Premier League clustered around a few familiar names this round.

  • Top pick was a popular pick (), picked by 289% of managers.
  • Second most popular: Bruno Fernandes  (Midfielder), taken by 33% of managers this round.
  • Third most popular was Morgan Rogers (Midfielder), picked by 28% of managers.
  • Fourth most popular: Pascal Groß (Midfielder), taken by 22% of managers this round.
  • Fifth most popular: Erling Haaland (Attacker), taken by 22% of managers this round.

Broken down by position, a few names dominated their slot:

  • No one trusted a Midfielder more than Bruno Fernandes , chosen by 33% of managers.
  • Attacker: Erling Haaland led the way, picked by 22% of managers.
  • At Defender, Riccardo Calafiori was the standout, taken by 6% of managers.

For anyone chasing a differential, Martin Ødegaard  (Midfielder) had only 6% of managers on board this round.

Now it's up to the games themselves to decide who called it right.
