This is one thing a lot of people don't seem to do, and can depend on the provider you choose to play your fantasy football with.

But spending all your money on top strikers is often not the way to go over the course of the season.

A lot of the time we see the top performers in the game playing with five defenders or midfielders, while opting for just the one striker up top in the form of an Aguero, Kane or Salah.

It's completely pointless most of the time to blow your entire budget on the three most expensive strikers in the game, and you immediately find yourself becoming over-reliant on those players.

The last thing you want in fantasy football is putting all your eggs in one basket and hoping your strikers carry you home. There's always weeks where they won't score, so if you drop on a week when all three of your big hitters do nothing, your entire team suffers.
