The October international break reached its conclusion in the early hours of Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n

Well over 200 Premier League players have been representing their countries over the last week.<\/p>\n

In this piece, we tot up how many minutes each FPL asset clocked up while on duty. Amassed game-time is sometimes a factor after an international break, although as we\u2019re still in the early stages of 2025\/26, \u2018fatigue\u2019 is probably not going to be as big a deal as it will be later in the campaign.<\/p>\n

For all the injury scares that have emerged ahead of Gameweek 8, check out our early team news round-up <\/a>and Thursday\u2019s press conference coverage<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The game-time compilation is now mostly automated, with the subsequent tables coming from Datawrapper<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With this being a relatively new process of logging the game-time, let us know below if you spot anything untoward.<\/p>\n

ANY LATE RETURNEES?<\/p>\n

Players from non-European countries are often the last ones back through the door at their respective clubs, which raises concerns about their availability for the upcoming Gameweek.<\/p>\n

While those concerns frequently amount to nothing, there are occasions where international exertions have been a factor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As usual, there were some international fixtures taking place in the Americas in the early hours of next Wednesday morning \u2013 although considerably fewer than normal:<\/p>\n

Please note that any gaps in the M2 column\u00a0should be\u00a0because a player didn\u2019t appear in the matchday squad in\u00a0one\u00a0of their country\u2019s two internationals (not necessarily the second game).<\/p>\n
