Here’s my view on the best strikers in Sun Dream Team to give some food for thought for your transfer window 3 decisions
Sun Dream Team transfer window 3 – the best strikers
I’ve listed what I think are the best Sun Dream team midfielders using the following stats so you can make your own assessment:
1 Total Sun Dream Team points
2. The Sun Dream Team midfield ranking. This is just their ranking by points total
3. The points per game (PPG). The Sun Dream Team supplies games including sub appearances which makes the information a bit distorted.
4. The % of Sun Dream Team 7+ plus awards of their total games.
5. The % of Sun Dream Team star man awards of total games played
I’ve then attempted to rank them although obviously you will have your own views. I’ve also provided a bit of commentary.
1. Suarez (£7.5m) Points: 192 Str rank: 2 PPG: 9.6 7+awards: 75% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 35%
Along with Aguero Suarez is a must have for your Sun Dream Team lineup. In the FA Cup but with a hard draw. Will play every game to the end
2. Aguero (£7.0m) Points: 209 Str rank: 1 PPG: 8.7 7+awards: 71% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 29%
Only draw back is the amount of competition in the team for Starman awards and possible rotation. A must have though still in 4 competitions.
3. Sturridge (£5.0m) Points: 115 Str rank: 7 PPG: 6.7 7+awards: 71% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 12%
Will struggle for starman awards with Suarez in the team However has an excellent consistency and will pick up points through goal scoring exploits alone.
4. Adebayor (£3.5m) Points: 54 Str rank: 23 PPG: 6.0 7+awards: 56% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 22%
Has performed very well since coming back into the team with Sherwood as manager. Has the Europa League tie with Dnipro as extra games even if not in the FA Cup. languid style possibly doesn’t suit starman and 7 awards but goals should do.
5. Rooney(£7.0m) Points: 136 Str rank: 4 PPG: 5.7 7+awards: 67% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 33%
Without RVP in the team has carried United when fit. This has lead to alot of Starman awards which will be diluted with RVP back and Mata in the team. However Mata’s introduction may see him further forward which should result in more goals. Has a good champions league draw foor extra games but out of the FA Cup. Injured but expected back for the 28th Jan
6. Negredo (£6.0m) Points: 189 Str rank: 3 PPG: 5.7 7+awards: 52% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 9%
Really depends on whether you want to double up on the City strike force as Aguero is a must have. Will be rotated with Dzeko but in 4 competitions. Will struggle for Starman awards with competition in team Injured but expected back for Chelsea game.
7. Bony (£3.5m) Points: 118 Mid rank: 6 PPG: 4.2 7+awards: 36% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 14%
Now looking to stake a regular place in the team. In the FA Cup and the Europa League but tough draw against Napoli. Very good finisher but contributes little else which would explain low starman awards.
8. RVP (£8.0m) Points: 66 Mid rank: 17 PPG: 4.4 7+awards: 47% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 13%
Supposedly back from injury on the 28th but that remains to be seen. Hasn’t really performed to anything like last year and a huge risk to include him at that price.
9. Lukaku (£4.0m) Points: 90 Mid rank: 10 PPG: 4.3 7+awards: 57% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 10%
Has just gone off the boil recently and may have competition from new signing Traore. Has talent though and a reasonable FA Cup draw against Swansea.
10. Giroud (£4.0m) Points: 121 Mid rank: 5 PPG: 4.0 7+awards: 53% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 7%
Inconsistent striker who none the less has no competition for his place. May fatigue as the season goes on. Has tough FA Cup draw against Liverpool and Champions league draw against Bayern. Excellent value though for an Arsenal striker.
11. Remy (£3.0m) Points: 85 Mid rank: 12 PPG: 4.0 7+awards: 38% Sun Dream Team Starman awards: 10%
With Cabaye the star of the Newcastle team who should get more starman awards. Excellent finisher but contributes little else which is why his 7 awards are so low
