According to The Sun: At Dream Team HQ, we know that after a hectic weekend, you may not have time to delve into all the statistical data.

For most Mondays this season, we will strive to provide brief overviews of interesting facts that may have slipped under your radar.

These observations won't always impact your strategy, but the more you know, the better you can perform throughout the campaign.

You never know which small detail might turn into something significant.

Timely bonus for Trevo Chalobah

The Chelsea center-back became an unexpected hero in the derby in west London on Saturday.

The 26-year-old player scored 17 points for a clean sheet, an assist, five ball recoveries, and five bonus points.

Chalobah won three fouls and made four interceptions, which earned him the maximum bonus points.

Now he is the leading defender in Dream Team and looks incredibly useful in the absence of Levi Colwill (£3.5m).

Who needs Mbeumo or Wissa?

Taiwo Awoniyi (£3.1m) became one of three players to score three goals in the first three rounds, alongside Erling Haaland (£7.5m) and Lucas Paqueta (£3.7m).

The Brentford forward could have been the leading scorer, but his penalty attempt against Sunderland was saved by the goalkeeper.

Awoniyi scored 30 points, tying with Haaland and Joao Pedro (£4.6m).

Tottenham failed to score

Brennan Johnson (£4.9m) and Richarlison (£3.5m) were the most popular transfer targets before the third round, but Tottenham put in one of their weakest performances in years.

Thomas Frank's team made just five shots and had 0.17 xG, their worst figure in the league since 2021.

Choice of Cherie

Tottenham faced a well-organized Bournemouth team.

David Brooks (£2.3m) was one of several impressive players for the visitors.

In just 64 minutes, the Welsh midfielder made four recoveries, two shots on target, and created two big chances, earning him eight points.

This season, he has created five big chances — no other player has four at this time.

Closing entrances to the Palace

The five Crystal Palace defenders collectively racked up an impressive 57 points at Villa Park on Saturday night.

The 'Eagles' clean sheet was significant, but it wasn't the only factor in their success.

Marc Guéhi (£3.9m) scored in a farewell match for the club, while Maxence Lacroix (£3.7m) assisted for the third and final goal.

Wing-backs Daniel Munoz (£5.5m) and Tyrick Mitchell (£4m) made six recoveries each — with Mitchell leading the board for recoveries among all players with 14.

The Palace defenders will again become very popular amidst their upcoming matches with double gameweeks in the Conference League.

Jack is doing well

Although it's still early, Jack Grealish (£3.4m) looks like a new man at Everton.

The 29-year-old midfielder recorded his third and fourth assists of the campaign as Everton beat Wolverhampton on Saturday — twice as many as the next player in this category.

His impressive 17 PPM also earned him the maximum five bonus points.

Grealish made five dribbles and won SEVEN fouls, causing trouble for opponents' defenders.

Interestingly, he is now the most popular midfielder in the game!

Hammer strikes

Graham Potter is facing pressure at the start of this season, but his substitutions had a significant impact on West Ham's victory over Nottingham.

In his first match back from a long injury, Krystian Bielik (£3m) provided two assists in just eight minutes as the Hammers mounted a late surge to win 3-0.

Callum Wilson (£2.3m) replaced Niclas Füllkrug (£2.8m) in the middle of the second half and made four shots on target, one of which was a goal.

In comparison, Hugo Ekitike (£5.5m), Bruno Fernandes (£5.8m), and Joao Pedro (£4.6m) registered three shots each during the first three rounds.

Despite losses to Sunderland, Chelsea, and Wolverhampton, Lucas Paqueta (£3.7m) and Jarrod Bowen (£5m) have jointly the first and third best players in Dream Team at the time of the first international break.
