What Estève's numbers actually say
34 starts in 38 gameweeks, and 33 of his 34 appearances lasted an hour or more. 2,933 minutes last season. Minutes are the first thing a projection is built on, and his are not in question.
3 clean sheets last season from 34 appearances, with his team expected to concede about 2.06 a game while he was on the pitch. A defender's week is mostly clean sheet or no clean sheet, which is why two defenders on the same average can feel completely different to own.
He hit the defensive-contribution mark in 19 of his 34 starts — 56% of the time. That is the newest way of scoring in FPL, worth two points, and it is the reason cheap centre-backs who tackle and block are now worth owning.

Gameweek by gameweek
85 points across 38 gameweeks: 0 scores of ten or more, 0 weeks with a goal or an assist, and 16 weeks of two points or fewer. His best was 8 points at home to LEE in gameweek 8.
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 1.2 points a game more at home. Worth a thought when his run of fixtures is lopsided, but nineteen games either way is still a small sample.
The fixtures ahead
Next fixtures with the official FPL difficulty rating (1 easiest, 5 hardest) and Bawler's own model rating, from the same snapshot as /fpl/fixture-difficulty.
What Bawler projects
The model does not carry a rated projection for Estève right now — not enough recent football for the estimate to be worth more than the position average, and publishing one anyway would be pretending to know something. His actual record above is real either way.
Price
He started 2025/26 at £4.0m, peaked at £4.0m and finished at £3.8m — a move of −0.2m. 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 Burnley
Every figure on this page is computed from the Official FPL API's per-gameweek histories for Estève — 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.
