Adam Wharton — FPL stats
Crystal Palace · midfielder · £5.0m · owned by 0.7% of managers
What Wharton's numbers actually say
1 goal and 6 assists last season, off chances worth about 9 between them — 0.32 a game. He is not getting into the positions that produce FPL returns, so anything he is worth has to come from minutes, bonus and defensive points rather than goals.
29 starts in 38 gameweeks (2,552 minutes), with 28 appearances of an hour or more. He is in the side more often than not, but not the sort of pick you can leave alone all season.
He hit the defensive-contribution mark in 9 of his 29 starts — 31% of the time. For a midfielder that is two points a week arriving without a goal or an assist, and it is easy to miss when you are only looking at attacking returns.
Against the other midfielders
Ranked among the midfielders with enough football behind them to compare fairly — the same 900-minute bar that decides who gets a page here.
Gameweek by gameweek
112 points across 38 gameweeks: 2 scores of ten or more, 6 weeks with a goal or an assist, and 16 weeks of two points or fewer. His best was 11 points away at BRE in gameweek 37.
One bar per gameweek. Green is a ten-plus haul, purple is a six-plus return, grey is a quiet week.

Home and away
A real gap — he was worth about 1.5 points a game more away. Worth a thought when his run of fixtures is lopsided, but nineteen games either way is still a small sample.
The fixtures ahead
Coloured by official FPL fixture difficulty — green is kind, red is not. The full grid for every club is on fixture difficulty.
What Bawler projects
The projection prices every way a midfielder scores — appearing, goals, assists, clean sheets, saves, defensive contribution, bonus and cards — from his minutes and his underlying numbers. Before the season starts it is fixture-neutral: what he would be worth in an average gameweek, not against a particular opponent. How the model performed across a full season, gameweek by gameweek, is published on predicted points.
Price
He started 2025/26 at £5.0m, peaked at £5.0m and finished at £5.0m — flat across the season. FPL prices follow transfers in and out, so this is a record of what the game as a whole made of him. Tonight's risers and fallers are on price changes.
Also at Crystal Palace
Every figure on this page is computed from the Official FPL API's per-gameweek histories for Wharton — the same rows the game scores — and the totals are checked against FPL's own published season aggregates on every build. Expected goals, expected assists and expected goals conceded are FPL's published values. The full sortable database is on player stats.
FPL is a free fantasy game — this is points analytics, not betting advice.
