The 5.7million Fantasy Premier League managers who handed Erling Haaland (£12.3m) the captain's armband were rewarded as the forward produced his 11th double-figure haul of the season.
Haaland, who was also the most-recruited player for Gameweek 33 with more than 534,000 transfers in, scored one goal and provided two assists in Manchester City's impressive 4-1 win over Arsenal.
GW33 most-captained players
| Player | Captained by (000's) | Pts |
|---|---|---|
| Haaland | 5,713 | 14 |
| Salah | 1,198 | 2 |
| Kane | 553 | 11 |
Over 1.1m managers captained Mohamed Salah (£13.0m), but he blanked in Liverpool's 2-1 victory at West Ham United.
Keeping faith in Kane
Harry Kane (£11.5m) completes the top three captains and he duly rewarded his backers thanks two two assists in Tottenham Hotspur's 2-2 draw against Manchester United.
GW33 most transferred-in players
| Player | Transferred in by ('000s) | Pts |
|---|---|---|
| Haaland | 534 | 14 |
| Rashford | 471 | 12 |
| Isak | 327 | 1 |
The 471,000 Fantasy managers who snapped Marcus Rashford (£7.1m) for were also rewarded thanks to his display at Spurs.
The Man Utd star scored and produced an assist to earn 12 points.
With that haul, he has now surpassed his best ever season in Fantasy, reaching 186 points.
Alexander Isak (£6.8m) gained 377,000+ new owners for Newcastle United's trip to Everton on Thursday.
However, despite the Magpies' emphatic 4-1 win, he only gained a point after being brought on as a second-half substitute.
GW33 most transferred-out players
| Player | Transferred out by ('000s) | Pts |
| Kane | 585 | 11 |
|---|---|---|
| Saka | 312 | 2 |
| Toney | 298 | 2 |
Despite scoring in their 6-1 defeat at Newcastle, Kane was the most-sold player as managers looked for an easy route to Haaland.
However they were made to rue that decision thanks to his 11 point performance against Man Utd.
See which teams have Double Gameweeks
A difficult set of matches and no Doubles were also factors in the sales of Bukayo Saka (£8.4m) and Ivan Toney (£7.6m).
None of Arsenal's next four matches score below three in the Fixture Difficulty Ratings, while Brentford face four opponents rated at four or above over their final six matches.
Those who parted company with the pair will have been happy to see both players blank.
Saka was unable to make an impact in the defeat to Man City, while Toney failed to register a goal or an assist for a third successive away match in Brentford's 2-0 win at Chelsea.
