The No 1 transfer target for Gameweek 21, Anthony Gordon (£7.6m), delighted his new Fantasy Premier League owners with a goal and share of the bonus points.

For the second successive Gameweek, three Newcastle United players featured among the top five recruits, as Gordon was joined by team-mates Alexander Isak (£9.3m) and Lewis Hall (£4.9m).

All three produced returns in Newcastle's 3-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers with Isak totalling 16 points courtesy of two goals, an assist and maximum bonus, and Hall coming away with six points thanks to his eighth clean sheet of the season.

GW21 most-bought players
Player Transferred in by Pts
Gordon 760,937 9
Raul 550,104 1
Hall 542,478 6
Amad 467,419 -
Isak 416,305 16

Gordon is now the fourth most-selected midfielder in Fantasy, having been added to more than 1.66million squads over the last three rounds.

His nine-point return takes him up to 99 points for the season and means he has managed a goal or an assist in each of his last eight starts.

Hall, meanwhile, moves up to joint-second in the defender standings on 85 points. 

Benefiting from a share of set-piece duties, the England international has created 28 chances this season, highlighting his potential for points at both ends of the pitch.

There was less to cheer for those who snapped up Raul Jimenez (£5.7m) for Fulham's 3-2 loss at West Ham United.

The cut-price forward was millimeters away from getting a touch on Alex Iwobi's (£5.9m) cross for Fulham's first goal but, instead, he finished the match on one point after collecting a yellow card.

Amad Diallo (£5.4m) was also in demand ahead of Gameweek 21. 

A budget option in midfield, he’s been the most productive player under Ruben Amorim, racking up a team-leading 53 points since the Portuguese head coach took charge.

Manchester United host Southampton in the final match of Gameweek 21 on Thursday.
