Dynamic Liverpool duo top UltimateFan Point scorers from gameweek 21
Liverpool pair Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez were the big UltimateFan Point scorers from gameweek 21, while there is room for two Arsenal and two Tottenham players, one representative from Manchester United and another from Manchester City in the 10 highest point earners.
10. Jan Paul van Hecke (Brighton) - 11 UltimateFan Points
Brighton were unable to break down the Wolves backline on Monday night but feld firm to secure a point as they pair played out a 0-0 draw at the AMEX. Jan Paul van Hecke earned the WhoScored player of the match award in the stalemate as the Dutchman won eight aerial duels and made five tackles to earn a rating of 7.69 and 11 UltimateFan Points, a decent haul for a Silver card.
9. Alexander Isak (Newcastle) - 12 UltimateFan Points
Newcastle may have failed to hold out for all the spoils in their eventual 3-2 loss to Manchester City but Alexander Isak was on hand to maintain his decent form in the defeat, scoring his fifth goal in his last four outings. The young Swede gained 12 UltimateFan Points in the game at St. James' Park, so a handy earner in gameweek 21.
8. Richarlison (Tottenham) - 12 UltimateFan Points
The first of two Tottenham players to make the top 10 UltimateFan Point earners from gameweek 21, Richarlison maintained his decent form with a goal in Spurs' 2-2 draw at Manchester United. The Brazilian forward got the better of Andre Onana with one of two shots and made two tackles to earn 12 points this week.
7. Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) - 12 UltimateFan Points
The star player in Manchester City's 3-2 win at Newcastle, Kevin De Bruyne proved his importance in City's title pursuit with a goal and assist off the bench on his first league outing since August. Despite playing just 21 minutes at Newcastle, De Bruyne helped himself to a WhoScored rating of 8.12 and 12 UltimateFan Points.
6. Rodrigo Bentancur (Tottenham) - 12 UltimateFan Points
'He's the reason, they earned a point at United this season'. Having recovered from injury quicker than many expected, Rodrigo Bentancur excelled in Spurs' 2-2 draw at Manchester United, netting early in the second half from one of three shots. Bentancur also made two tackles to earn 12 UltimateFan Points in gameweek 21.
5. Gabriel (Arsenal) - 12 UltimateFan Points
UltimateFan users must have been gutted to see Gabriel's second against Crystal Palace on Saturday then marked as a Dean Henderson own goal. Nevertheless, the Brazilian was key as Arsenal eased past the Eagles on Saturday, putting the Gunners ahead in the 11th minute. Five clearances and five aerial duels won saw Gabriel earn 12 UltimateFan Points. Those who hold his card will hope his second half withdrawal was a precaution rather than anything worse.
4. Rasmus Hojlund (Manchester United) - 13 UltimateFan Points
Rasmus Hojlund followed up his first ever league goal with a goal and assists in Manchester United's 2-2 draw with Tottenham. Those came from respective returns one shot and one key pass, while the Dane also made one tackle on his way to earning 13 UltimateFan Points.
3. Gabriel Martinelli (Arsenal) - 19 UltimateFan Points
Gabriel Martinelli doubled his Premier League goal tally for the season with a brace off the bench in Arsenal's 5-0 win over Crystal Palace at the weekend. The 22-year-old got the better of Dean Henderson with both shots and worked hard off the ball as he made three tackles to return 19 UltimateFan Points at the weekend. A fine return in just 21 minutes of action at the Emirates.
2. Darwin Nunez (Liverpool) - 21 UltimateFan Points
Another big scorer who'd been out of form ahead of the weekend's action, Darwin Nunez had scored just once in 16 outings ahead of Liverpool's trip to Bournemouth on Sunday, only to net twice from three shots at the Vitality Stadium. Additional returns of three tackles and three key passes saw the Uruguayan forward return 21 UltimateFan Points.
1. Diogo Jota (Liverpool) - 23 UltimateFan Points
Diogo Jota was directly involved in three of Liverpool's four goals at Bournemouth on Sunday, netting twice. The Portuguese hitman's brace came from two shots and his assist from his only key pass, while three tackles helped Jota to 23 UltimateFan Points, that more than any other player in gameweek 21.
