Sun Dream Team transfer window 3 tips – analysing the top 20 point scorers to date
Here is the table of the top 20 point scorers from the Sun Dream Team site.
Analysed by position
1/20 are Goalkeepers
4/20 are Defenders
9/20 are Midfielders
6/20 are Strikers
15/20 are attacking players. Interestingly 3/6 of the strikers are fairly cheap. However the only cheap midfielder is Downing. The 4 defenders only came from 2 clubs, Chelsea and Southampton
Analysed by the teams in European competitions
Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City are in the Champions League. Tottenham and Everton are in the Europa League
12/20 are from teams that started in the Champions League
3/20 are from Tottenham who are in the Europa League
The remaining 5 players are Berahino, Austin, Downing, Clyne and Bertrand.
Surprisingly despite the fixture dominance of the European teams being diluted they still dominate the top 20 ramkings.
By Team
Chelsea have 6 players. Man City and Spurs have 3 each. Arsenal and Southampton have 2 each.
By type of player
3/4 Defenders are Full backs. 2 are from Southampton and all 3 FBs are very attack minded. I’m not sure from this we can take the fact that we should go for FBs not CBs.
Apart from Matic all the midfielders are forward thinking attacking midfielders
Summary
- Midfielders and strikers are the priority positions for your cash
- There are cheap strikers if you can sacrifice the 3 obvious expensive strikers in Aguero, Costa and Sanchez
- The dominace of players in European competitions has restablished itself
- 3 teams have 12 of the top 20 which shows that you can double or triple up players from 1 team with good form and fixtures
- Strikers, attacking full backs and attacking midfielders seem to have performed best position wise
Thats it. On to the best fixtures next
