DEFENSIVE MASTERCLASS WINS MANAGER GAMEWEEK 7 PRIZE

Fielding a five-man defence proved to be an inspired move by Brunei manager Radin Udara.

His Admin kotw team brought in 122 points to earn him Gameweek 7's Manager of the Week accolade.

And his five defenders, together with Burnley goalkeeper Joe Hart (£4.6m), secured Radin more than half of that total.
The Gameweek's top scorer, Leicester City centre-back Harry Maguire (£5.5m), led the way with 18 points.

A goal, assist, clean sheet and maximum bonus points helped Maguire to a second double-digit haul of the campaign as the Foxes beat Newcastle United 2-0.

Three other members of the Dream Team defence could also be found in Radin's side.

Wolverhampton Wanderers duo Jonny (£4.4m) and Matt Doherty (£4.5m) brought in 12 points each, while Tottenham Hotspur wing-back Kieran Trippier (£6.2m) recorded 11 in the 2-0 win at Huddersfield Town.

Radin captained Manchester City midfielder Raheem Sterling (£11.0m).

The winger's fourth goal of the season, and his second assist, produced 14 points as Pep Guardiola's side saw off Brighton & Hove Albion 2-0.

Tottenham Hotspur forward Harry Kane (£12.5m) was only one shy of that total as he scored both goals in the victory over the Terriers.

Attacking returns from Sergio Aguero (£11.4m), Theo Walcott (£6.6m) and Wolverhampton Wanderers' striker Raul Jimenez (£5.6m) also boosted Radin's total.

As the manager with the highest score among those not using any of their chips, the Cardiff City fan wins a copy of FIFA 19, a Nike Merlin match ball and an FPL rucksack and mug.

GW7 ONES TO WATCH;SEAN MORRISON

Sean Morrison (£4.9m) Cardiff City may not have started the season as strongly as they would have liked but they do possess a centre-half who is making an impact in both defence and attack. Morrison helped his side to clean sheets against Newcastle United and Huddersfield Town over Gameweeks 2 to 3. He followed that up with back-to-back assists against Arsenal and Chelsea. Major threat The 27-year-old boasted a fine record in last season's Championship. He scored seven goals and recorded a total of 50 shots on goal. Although he has yet to score this term, Morrison has carried a major threat for the Bluebirds. Chance creator No Cardiff player has bettered his totals of seven chances created and two big chances. A big chance is a situation where the player receiving the pass is expected to score. Morrison's aerial threat can be decisive against visitors Burnley this Sunday. He has won 37 headed duels this season, more than any other defender. Claret concess...
