Ibrahima Konate and other top defenders selected by fewer than 10% of Dream Team gaffers

DREAM TEAM managers should always be aware of potential differential options, players who appear in relatively few teams.

These individuals are often the difference-makers as their returns are more likely to impact Mini League standings and overall rank than the popular superstars.

With Manchester City on a losing streak and several other high-profile defenders out injured, many gaffers will want to refresh their back line ahead of Gameweek 13.

Here we've simply identified the defenders with the most points who currently feature in fewer than 10% of teams.

Daniel Munoz

• £3.4m
• 1.5% ownership
• 68 pts

The Crystal Palace wing-back has made a whopping 55 tackles already this season.

Only Noussair Mazraoui (£4.1m) has registered more but he's only ahead of Munoz because he's had additional European fixtures to pad out his schedule.

Plus, Rico Lewis (£3.4m) is the only defender with more assists than the Colombia international at this stage.

The Eagles are struggling this term with just eight points from their first 12 league outings but scoring goals is their primary problem - they've conceded the same number of goals as Manchester City.
