Ezri Konsa is not a buy this week. FPL Heisenberg says Ezri Konsa should stay on the watchlist for now, even with Arsenal on three clean sheets in their last three Premier League games.
Arsenal's defensive run
The clean-sheet streak is the obvious reason managers are looking at him. Arsenal have shut out three straight Premier League opponents, and they have conceded only five goals in nine league matches. That makes their defenders look appealing on paper, especially with William Saliba now fit and in the squad.
But the timing still feels awkward. Konsa has had some knee problems, and BBC Sport's Fantasy Premier League expert is clear on the call: "He is a hold for this week, not a buy." That is the cleaner FPL read, because Konsa has only eight Premier League appearances this season and the rotation risk is still there.
Why the advice stays cautious
Konsa's 7.15 Premier League rating suggests steady output, and he has played 650 league minutes, so this is not a player who has been absent for long spells. Even so, the short-term setup is not ideal for a transfer, especially with Arsenal's defensive options improving again.
He may still start Hull at home, but that does not change the advice for this week. The safer move is to wait and see how his fitness and selection status look before gameweek 11 or 12.
