11 Players You Need In Your Fantasy Football Team Right Now

2. Steven Naismith (£5.3m)

Everton€™s Steven Naismith doesn€™t get anywhere near as much attention as many of his fellow professionals €“ perhaps something we should seek to redress. The Scottish player recently purchased four Everton season tickets and donated them to Jobcentre Plus so that unemployed Toffee fans can watch their team play, he raises awareness about dyslexia having battled the learning difficulty in his childhood and also supports homeless shelters in Glasgow and Liverpool. Naismith cut his teeth playing for Kilmarnock and Rangers, but the financial collapse of the latter in 2012 forced his hand and prompted a move to Merseyside. The player did not settle instantly, Naismith finding himself a little in awe of some of his teammates and David Moyes uncertain of where best to deploy his new signing. On arriving at Goodison, Roberto Martínez understood the value of playing the attacking midfielder more centrally and the Scot responded with nine goals and six assists. Why You Should Sign Him With Ross Barkley expected to remain on the side-lines for a couple of months yet, Naismith will figure heavily in Everton€™s autumn and is a bargain at £5.3m. He has netted in all three Premier League games thus far and his return of 24 points from three games is a terrific yield. He will doubtless score further goals and provide assists to boot in the months to come. Capable of playing on the wing, in the centre or further forward, as he did to great success in the last two home games against Arsenal, Naismith€™s quick brain, clever movement and enviable work rate should reap further dividends for Everton €“ and you, if you bring him into your team.
