FANTASY PREMIER LEAGUE TIPS GW8 – THE BEST DEFENCES AND DEFENDERS “ones to watch”
THE BEST VALUE AND ATTACKING DEFENDERS
So here’s the table. Effectively I’ve ranked the defences taking into account their defensive stats strength plus the upcoming next 6 fixtures. I’ve then given you the best value defender and the best attacking defender. Values are as of Thursday. This is the ranking of their defensive strength.
Next is the fixture ease and then the bookies odds for a clean sheet in GW8. Use those 2 columns to make an adjustment if you want
SOME NOTES
Arsenal with Mustafi and Koscielny now at CB look very solid with great fixtures. They are lower ranked probably due to the lack of CBs in the opening games
Alonso the Cheslea LB if he can get a place looks an option for Chelsea
Scott Dann the Palace CB is currently injured but is a good attacking option although very expensive for a Palace player at £5.4m
Baines and Jagileka are both injury doubts but expected to be back for GW8
Kone of Sunderland and Friend of Middlesboro are both short term price drop potential. Check it out using the website FPL statistics
Southampton LB Bertrand has an hamstring injury with no return date and Targett at £4.4m is the favourite to take over. He unfortunately is also an injury doubt
Lovren and Clyne are both injury doubts but expected back for GW8
John Terry the Chelsea CB is expected back for GW8. He’s good value at £5.4m if he can get into the team
Kompany is expected back for GW9. Will he displace Stones or Otamendi
