Dream Team 2016/17: Low cost playmakers who will score similar points to the big boys
With a £1million prize pot on offer, it's important to find the hidden gems that will boost your team
WE'VE tightened the purse strings for our fantasy football game this year.
You’ve still got £50million to spend on 11 players but with Sergio Aguero boasting an £8.0m price tag, you’ve got to be a little more thrifty.
We want to reward knowledgeable players more than ever.
Which means you’re going to need to identify a few cheaper options for your midfield.
Here are five reasonably priced (£3.0m – £4.5m) playmakers that will score similar points to the big boys.
1. Dusan Tadic (3.5m)
Southampton’s Serbian creator is prone to fluctuations in form but if you catch him when he’s hot then there points to be had.
After Christmas last season his assist and chances created stats were up there with the likes of Mesut Ozil and Dele Alli.
2. Santi Cazorla (4.0m)
A fit again Santi Cazorla is a creative force to be reckoned with. His passing stats are always sublime and should earn him regular 7+ ratings.
Plus, he’s likely to take any penalties Arsenal are awarded, which is a nice bonus.
