Oh I so wish my January wildcard wasn’t imaginary! Here’s a fantasy premier league team where I pretend I have a Wildcard without Costa
fantasy premier league – my imaginary wildcard – without Diego Costa
Here’s the team at a value around £104.0m. I’ve done this to help you decide on transfers in anticipation of Costa being banned for 3 games today. Remember he hasn’t been found guilty yet but this should be resolved today at a hearing
Here’s the team plus some general brief commentary. Detail on all the players can be found in the “ones to watch” articles earlier in the week
My straight swap for Costa is Giroud with good fixtures and an excellent home game against Villa for GW23
I’ve stuck with the single GK and his reserve due to the difficulty in picking fixtures this season and the unexpected home and away clean sheets.
Chelsea and Southampton are my core defensive teams who will play in the main home and away. I’ve gambled on Bellerin as a cheapie Arsenal defender although he still has some fitness issues. Wisdom is my WBA Pulis double up and Van Aanholt for value and Sunderland defensive solidity (although recent transfers and talk from PoeT suGgest they may try and be more expansive)
In attack Sanchez, (even with an injury risk) Hazard, Aguero and Kane are there due to the leading mangers ownership. Di Maria and Puncheon are the fixture gambles and Aguero is just well Aguero.
Excuse the brevity but as I said detail on all players can be seen in my “ones to watch” articles earlier in the week
