This week was all about one player. Sergio Aguero’s hat trick, two assists and inevitable top bonus points bagged him 23 points, condemned QPR to relegation, cemented his position as the league’s top marksman and the FPL’s top points scoring striker, and moved him into second place behind Eden Hazard in the overall scoring charts.

No-one came close to him this week and that’s reflected in the Buckets totals. You can tell just by looking at the scores the teams that had him – and the teams that didn’t. And it appears all those lucky enough to have him in their squads had the brains to make him captain too. In fact there were only eight other players that achieved double figure totals this week. Of Aguero’s City team mates, Aleksandar Kolarov and David Silva, posted 13 and 16 points respectively. Riyad Mahrez added 16 to his total, as the Leicester juggernaut continued to roll on – surely to safety now. Lukasz Fabianski, Steven N’Zonzi, Steven Gerrard and Ashley Young were the others to score more than 10 points. Hardly the most popular bunch among managers, further highlighting the marked difference between teams with or without Sergio. Basically, there weren’t many points to be had elsewhere.

Paris Spinks Germain hit the highest score this week. Their 92 points also moves them to the top of the May monthly table. They chose Aguero as captain, backed up by David Silva, and Robert Huth and Jeff Schlupp from that all of a sudden impenetrable Leicester defence. Those four players managed a whopping 76 points between them.

Of the top 11, only Shoelace lined up without Aguero, but did have David Silva as their captain. This has kept them in contention of a top four finish. Van Damme had both Aguero and Silva, but went with Hazard as captain. This was the first week for a long time that it looked like the best captain options lay well away from the Chelsea team. Hazard doesn’t register too many two point weeks, but this was his second in the last three.

And in 12th lie Upper Bullens, who, without Aguero, only managed 44 points. They’ve dropped four places in the league, and any slim hopes of catching the top four have undoubtedly ended. That’s the difference one player can make.

 

Player of the week – Sergio Aguero – 23 points. Not quite the highest weekly total of the season.

Bargain of the week – Riyad Mahrez – 16 points. Leicester players in every position scoring big in these final few weeks.

Donkey of the week – Vlad Chiriches – -3 points. Spurs season fizzling out.

Goal of the week. Ayoze Perez. I dunno what’s up with the pictures?
