Altay Bayındır

PitchKeep Take · The Premier

Altay Bayındır is a goalkeeper for Man Utd, age 28, £4.5m. The Premier ranks him 375th overall by splitting Sleeper BPL 2025 (#346, 6.8 points) with the consensus of 2 other boards (426.0). Last year's Sleeper line ran 80 spots ahead of the expert/FPL mix. The third list keeps some of that production bump and refuses to throw the other boards out. That is the whole point of not just republishing The Pitch.

The 2025/26 line is 6 starts, 540 minutes, 13 saves, 0 clean sheets and 11 goals against. Official FPL scored it at 11 points (1.8 per match). Sleeper's table turned the same counting stats into 6.8. Keepers get 8 a clean sheet, 2 a save, and −2 a goal against. That is a different sport than FPL's 10-from-saves cap, and it is why this board ranks them at all.

Underlying: 0.0 xG, 0.05 xA, 0.05 xGI. The job is shot-stopping volume in front of whatever Man Utd is this year. 13 saves is the Sleeper case. 0 clean sheets is the FPL case. If the back line leaks, both numbers move together and this ranking goes with them. The friendliest board is FPL ICT Index at 326; the coldest is Sleeper BPL 2025 at 346.

Market: £4.5m, 3 boards on the file. Price is the FPL tax, not the rank. The Premier is who produced and who the boards still believe. ICT 12.8.

Instruction: he is on the 400, which is already a statement, and he is not a star. Stash in Sleeper if the minutes are real. Do not let a Pitch screenshot make you start him over a Premier top-80. FPL flag: unavailable; Has joined Celta Vigo on loan for the rest of the season. Nearby on The Premier: Ethan Pinnock, Jack Harrison, Jack Fletcher. Versus The Pitch (Sleeper-only #346), the hybrid moves him down to #375. That move is the third list doing its job.

He is 28, which on this board is neither a dart nor a warning label. Prime-age goalkeepers get ranked on what they just did and whether Man Utd still gives them the ball. 540 minutes says yes. The 2026/27 FPL price (£4.5m) is the app's guess at whether that continues. The Premier is the blend of that guess and the box score.

You start one goalkeeper. That positional cap is why The Premier will not put a saves leader in the overall top ten unless the consensus also shows up. Bayındır's Sleeper line (6.8) already made The Pitch. The other boards (426.0) decide how far the hybrid lets him climb. Draft him as a keeper, not as an outfielder who happens to have gloves.

How to use the file: The Pitch is the Sleeper-only 400 (he is #346 there). The Premier is the 50/50 with every other board we track. Attack, Midfield, Defence, and Keepers re-rank the same Sleeper table by position. BK Value on this page follows The Premier when you are on the hybrid calculator and The Pitch when you are on the Sleeper calculator. Same curve either way - 12,000 at 1.01.
