What to do with Joao Pedro? FPL gameweek six dilemmas

Managers heading into gameweek six are faced with several dilemmas, according to BBC Sport's Fantasy Premier League expert Pras. One of the biggest questions is what to do with Chelsea forward Joao Pedro, who is owned by about 65% of managers despite being the most sold player over the international break. Pras suggests holding on to him and using the bench, as he remains one of the best picks in the game based on points-per-million figures. However, if manager Xabi Alonso rules him out completely, Pras would not recommend it.

Another difficult decision is who to captain this week. Erling Haaland is away at Liverpool, while Bukayo Saka, Cole Palmer, and Bruno Fernandes are all available at home with strong fixture runs. Pras leans towards sticking with Haaland for his best chance of a big score, but suggests considering Saka or Palmer as alternatives, depending on their form and potential injuries.
