Best players to buy

Manchester United – Although inconsistent this season, new management and good fixtures could make the Red Devils appealing again. A cheap route into the defence is Lisandro Martinez (£4.4m), but it’s full-back Diogo Dalot (£5.1m) who stands out in regards to attacking threat. In terms of attackers, penalty taker and midfielder Bruno Fernandes (£8.2m) could be their best option. A cheaper avenue into the frontline is midfielder Alejandro Garnacho (£6.3m), who bagged a 10-pointer in Gameweek 8.

Brentford – The Bees remain one of the best teams when focusing on the schedule. Although defensively poor recently, goalkeeper Mark Flekken (£4.5m) and centre-back Ethan Pinnock (£4.5m) are cheap enough for FPL managers who want to invest. Midfielder Bryan Mbeumo (£7.7m) has become an essential recently so many should look to forward Yoane Wissa (£6m) who managed to score and assist in Gameweek 9.

Newcastle – The Magpies seem to be returning to the spotlight after a run of tough fixtures. The Magpies have been short of clean sheets recently but a cheap way into the defence is Dan Burn (£4.4m). Midfielder Anthony Gordon (£7.2m) has returned in just three matches this season but fixtures could change his fortune. Leading the attack though, and arguably the standout attacking option, is Alexander Isak (£8.3m) who has scored in both of his last two matches.

Who else should we consider?

Wolves – Gary O’Neil’s men remain near the top of the fixture ticker. Scoring three goals and creating one assist in his previous four matches is full-back Rayan Ait-Nouri (£4.6m), so he should be FPL managers first choice at the back. Matheus Cunha (£6.6m) has netted twice in his last three games but has also been sustaining elite distribution data. A cheaper pick in attack is striker Jorgen Strand Larsen (£5.5m) who has picked up two returns in his last three matches.

Everton – Unbeaten in their previous five games the Toffees remain a top team to invest in for managers. Between the sticks Jordan Pickford (£4.9m) could be an option, but going even cheaper we could opt for Vitalii Mykolenko (£4.3m). Midfielder Dwight McNeil (£5.8m) is their best performing attacker in terms of returns and data. Striker and penalty taker Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.9m) leads the attack and although short of form, could still have potential.

Fulham – Fulham have some positive fixtures ahead. Antonee Robinson (£4.7m) continues to impress offensively so he remains their best defensive option. Those who are interested in their attackers then midfielder Emile Smith Rowe (£5.7m) and striker Raul Jimenez (£5.8m) could be great picks.

Should I use a chip?

The most experienced managers tend to save their chips for Blank and Double Gameweeks. So, being patient and waiting for those to arrive could be a wise move.
