Fantasy Football manager scores massive 139 points in FPL GW2 with stunning team

After some impressive performances, one Fantasy Premier League Manager ended GW2 with the highest-scoring team, tallying an incredible 139 points.

In the second week of the Premier League, fans were treated to some top-tier entertainment, with the likes of Manchester City and Arsenal impressing, whilst Liverpool and Manchester United struggled again. Some players returned big points in GW2 of FPL, and one manager grabbed 139 points in just the second GW alone.

The biggest hitter of GW2 was Arsenal's Gabriel Jesus, with the Brazilian scoring two, assisting two and grabbing three bonus points in Arsenal's 4-2 win over Leicester. Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne and Joao Cancelo returned big point hauls in a 4-0 win over Bournemouth, and Nottingham Forest's Dean Henderson saved a penalty and kept a clean sheet in a 1-0 win against West Ham.

One manager managed to fit all of the above players in his team for GW2, topping the GW2 leaderboards with 139 points. Jordan Tenzin, with his FPL team, 'Tenzin', used his Triple Captain chip on Arsenal's Jesus, with the Brazilian alone returning 57 points. To put into context, the FPL GW2 average score for an entire team was 57 points.

As well as Jesus, the GW2 master had Man City trio De Bruyne, Kyle Walker and Cancelo who combined for 31 points, Gabriel Martinelli and Kane on eight points, Henderson in goal on 14 points and many more great picks. Martin Odegaard was the only player who didn't return, with Trent Alexander-Arnold managing one bonus point.

Here's Jordan Tenzin's full squad:
