Question 1

Is Antoine Semenyo a reliable DEFCON asset in Fantasy Premier League?

Accepted Answer

The DEFCON case is thin. earned the +2pt DEFCON bonus in 0 of 4 appearances this season. Antoine Semenyo averages 3.75 defensive contribution actions per 90 minutes across 360 minutes played (15 total actions this season). That places Antoine Semenyo below the level where DEFCON becomes a genuinely bankable weekly return, so any manager signing them should be doing so for attacking output or fixture reasons rather than defensive contributions. The sample is still small at 360 minutes, so treat the rate as a signal rather than a settled read. Look for the attacking case first and treat DEFCON as an occasional plus.

Question 2

How does Semenyo rank among Fantasy Premier League midfielders for DEFCON?

Accepted Answer

Semenyo ranks 112 of 118 eligible midfielders for DEFCON per 90 - the 6th percentile at their position. That places them below the level where DEFCON should be a leading reason to own them. Attacking output, price, and fixtures need to carry more of the weight in the buying case.

Question 3

What do Semenyo's raw defensive numbers look like this Fantasy Premier League season?

Accepted Answer

Semenyo has racked up 4 combined clearances, blocks, interceptions and tackles across 360 minutes. That works out to 1.0 defensive actions per 90 minutes on average. The 12-plus threshold has been cleared in 0 of 4 appearances, converting to the +2pt DEFCON bonus each time. 360 minutes is a small sample - the raw figures are directional rather than definitive.

Question 4

Should I sign Antoine Semenyo for Gameweek 6 on DEFCON grounds?

Accepted Answer

Antoine Semenyo's defensive workload of 3.75 actions per 90 is too thin to build a transfer around. The Gameweek 6 fixture is away at Liverpool, an FDR 4 matchup. If the attacking case is strong for other reasons, DEFCON is not the reason to hold back - but it should not be the reason to bring them in either.
