West Ham Assistant Manager Bouncing Back
west Ham United boss Graham Potter (£0.5m) is picked as Assistant Manager at home to Newcastle United, after guiding his side to back-to-back wins. West ham will be hoping to improve on their sixth position when they face a Newcastle side who will be without key players.

Midfielders: Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo (£8.0m) and West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen (£7.4m) are good options for Gameweek 28.
