Fantasy football tips: 5 Premier League assist kings
Fantasy football fans - may we assist you ahead of the start of the Premier League season on Friday?
Well Dream Team is back on the menu with Arsenal and Leicester getting the season underway at the Emirates.
Eight goals and 15 assists in the Premier League made him one of Dream Team's most valuable players, scoring a whopping 251 points.
3 Gylfi Sigurdsson - £4.5m
Swansea's heart, soul and engine is being linked with a mega-money move elsewhere this summer - and it's easy to see why.
Sigurdsson amassed 13 assists for his team-mates last season, developing an instant rapport with Fernando Llorente.
4 Cesc Fabregas - £4m
Used as more of a secret weapon by Antonio Conte last season, Fabregas' goal involvement was absolutely ridiculous by the end of the season, averaging a goal or an assist every 78 minutes.
The Spaniard is still at the peak of his powers and his 12 assists from just 13 starts in the Premier League last season emphasise that.
5 Georginio Wijnaldum - £4m
Wijnaldum was a relatively underappreciated success in his first season at Liverpool, but his impact in big matches can't be denied after goals against Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and in that final game against Middlesbrough.
He also managed nine assists - the highest at Liverpool - making him an intriguing alternative to some of the bigger names.
How does fantasy football work?
The setup for Dream Team is rather simple – as a manger you get a budget of £50m to spend on your team of 11 players.
Game Weeks will run from Friday to Thursday this season and you’ll be allowed to transfer out players who have already played in that Game Week.
How did Pogba perform in fantasy football last season?
Each manager gets a maximum of three transfers a month – so it’s important to pay attention to upcoming fixtures.
And if the incentive of beating your mates in our Mini-League system isn’t enough, there’s a whopping £750,000 prizepot at stake too.

Why is Harry Kane a fantasy football must have this season?
There’s a reason Harry Kane stands alone as the most expensive player this season.
The Spurs striker has proved his doubters wrong time and time again, racking up a second successive Premier League Golden Boot last campaign.
But Alan Shearer knew the boy was special from the start.
“I said maybe 18 months ago his price tag would be £90m and a lot people raised their eyebrows. He’d go for a lot more than that now,” Shearer told Dream Team.
It takes an elite level striker to know one, and Shearer’s recognition of Kane’s ability emphasises why he’s a fantasy football must have.
