EBERECHI EZE (£5.1m) could not have picked a better time to hog the spotlight.
The Crystal Palace midfielder earned 18 points over the weekend to steer Dream Team managers in right direction ahead of Gameweek 36.
With no midweek fixtures scheduled, Eze is guaranteed to finish as the top performer of Gameweek 35 thanks to his brace at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.
The England international scored two relatively simple finishes as the Eagles outclassed Spurs in North London.
For Oliver Glasner, it was the perfect preparation for next weekend's FA Cup final against Manchester City.
And this date with destiny at Wembley is a huge point of interest in the world of Dream Team as it means Palace will be among the select group of four teams with two fixtures to fulfil in Gameweek 36.
Eze was already an excellent option for the upcoming double header against Man City and Wolves but he's practically unavoidable after his 18-point return.
It's early days but the 26-year-old is currently the most transferred-in player ahead of Friday's deadline.
More broadly, Eze has been in great touch of late having amassed 49 points from his last four outings via five goals.
This fruitful burst has propelled him up to fifth in the midfield rankings.
He needs just six more points to join the exclusive group of players who have celebrated a triple century this season.

Eze has scored 13 goals and provided 11 assists in all competitions this term; he also ranks highly for bonus points (45).
Man City will start as favourites in the cup final - they beat Palace 5-2 in the league last month - but Pep Guardiola's side are not the infallible machine of yesteryear.
Given Eze averages 7.4 points-per-game in 2024/25, a double Gameweek is surely too promising to pass up, regardless of the task facing him at Wembley.
Much of the same logic applies to Jean-Philippe Mateta (£4m) and Daniel Munoz (£5.1m).
The latter has a decent chance of finishing the season as Dream Team's outright best defender!
