This week · GW2 · 2026/27

Alright — GW2 is done. Before the deadline Pitchline wrote down who it liked. Full disclosure: here's who it got right, who it got a bit wrong, and who completely ignored it.

It was a louder week than forecast. People scored. Anyway. Here's who that actually was.

The good

Let's start with the quiet wins. These 10 aren't the hauls you'll still be talking about on Wednesday. They just did pretty much as forecast.

Rúben Man City DEF 2 2
Šeško Man Utd FWD 1 1
Anderson Man City MID 3 3
Diop Ipswich Town DEF 2 2
Khusanov Man City DEF 2 2

Truffert Bournemouth DEF 3.9 4

The bad

Then the "yeah, fair enough" ones. Not close enough to brag about, not wild enough to be angry. These 10 sit in that middle bit: annoying if they were in your team, gone from your head if they weren't.
