BEST TRANSFERS

Looking at the optimum combination of strong defence at an appropriate value, good fixtures and good odds then the best transfers for this gameweek are

Alonso Chelsea £6.6m

Jones Man Utd £4.9m

Yoshida Southampton £4.2m

Middlesboro Chambers £4.5m

Brunt WBA £5.0m

A FEW COMMENTS

Here’s a few value punts:

Ake Chelsea £4.2m – the LWB/LCB didn’t make the 18 in Chelsea’s last game and with Alonso stating he had no pain from his long term minor injury then it’s hard to see Ake becoming a major value play at least in the short term

Wimmer  Spurs £4.6m  – the CB seems the most likely replacement for Vertonghen who’s out for up to 2 months.  Away to City it’s probably worth holding to see if he starts

Stones Man City £4.7m – I keep backing Man City as the stats show they should be a better defensive team than they are.  He is a major rotation and late sub coming on risk

Chilwell Leicester £4.3m – played 3 of the last 4.  Whether Leicester have the fixtures or defence to make even that value worth while is questionable

Holgate £4.1m and Funes Mori £4.6m both Everton – both are good value and Holgate started GW21 but is a major rotation risk.  Funes Mori has started 6 of the last 8 but like Stones is liable to come on in the last few minutes if he is rotated

Collins West Ham £4.2m played in the last match within a back 3.  The West Ham defence isn’t anything to write home about and he is a definite rotation risk but is cheap

Love Sunderland £4.0m – started the last 2 but with Jones and Manquillo potential RBs then he is a definite risk in a pretty hopeless defensive team

Injuries – Liverpool RB Clyne, Brunt of WBA  and Southampton’S CB Van Dijk are both injury risks but expected to play.  Dann of Palace is a major doubt
