Gianni Buttice Names The Best Midfielders To Own For The Run-In In His Gameweek 34 Tips 4hu5t

Gianni Buttice returns with his latest set of FPL tips ahead of Blank Gameweek 34, this week naming the best midfielders to own as we approach the final few gameweeks of the season.

Goal-scoring midfielders who take the majority of set pieces and clock better bonus points than their teammates are worth their weight in gold. There are three obvious players that tick this box, that are not part of the FPL community template (yet) and are surely soon to gain in popularity in the coming weeks.

FPL Gameweek 34 Tips: Midfielders To Own For The Run-In 463q68

Bryan Mbeumo (£8.0m) – Brentford 20xg

Bryan Mbeumo is the second highest scorer in FPL this season and has arguably been the best value pick in the game. His ownership should be higher, but because of his tough run of fixtures and no double gameweeks, many engaged managers decided to sell him on Wildcard a few weeks back.

The Nottingham Forest fixture may not be the best entry point, but the wide forward is an elite finisher capable of hauling against any backline, and from Gameweek 35 the fixtures are fantastic.

Manchester United, who suffered a 1-0 defeat to Wolves at Old Trafford last time out, and Ipswich are defences to target, and both Fulham and Wolves fixtures are a favourable final two as Brentford chase European football for next season.

Jarrod Bowen (£7.5m) – West Ham United 4sws

Jarrod Bowen is another clean talisman for his club. Unlike Brentford, West Ham don’t produce much in the way of big chances or goals, but when they do, Bowen is often involved.

West Ham’s lack of output up top is a concern, and Bowen, who costs a similar amount to Mbeumo, is clearly second best, but those on Wildcard and Free Hit will still be tempted by the England man.

The fixtures are good for West Ham, and manager Graham Potter will be desperate to end the season on a high after such a slow start at the London Stadium.

Kevin De Bruyne (£9.4m) – Manchester City 5x4r60

Kevin De Bruyne has now played more than 85 mins in each of the last four league games. Pep Guardiola is surely likely to continue starting his main source of creativity, and without Erling Haaland, Manchester City need De Bruyne as they look to secure a top-five finish and Champions League football for next season.

If City beat Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup semi-final, they are likely to double in Gameweek 36, which could see De Bruyne become a legitimate captaincy option. If they double in 36, they will blank in 37, which could leave an opportunity for a two-week midfield put elsewhere to end the season.
