Fantasy Football Tips: 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 17

2. Alvaro Negredo

Team: Man City Value: £9.6 million Points In GW16: 6 If Manchester City are to maintain their rampaging form that has seen them plunder a whopping 47 Premier League goals this season, they will have to do so without Sergio Aguero. The club's leading goalscorer could be out for eight weeks with a calf injury, which is a crushing blow to both the Citizens, and their title hopes. They still have plenty of firepower, however, in the form of summer signing Alvaro Negredo, who has already demonstrated his worth to the side by netting seven league goals this season. And I'm expecting him to get a few against a Fulham side who are on a slippery slide to the Championship at this rate, with three league wins in 10 leaving the Cottagers stranded second-from-bottom. It will be up to Negredo to carry the Sky Blues forward into the New Year, and you could bag City's likeliest source of goals between now and February for just £9.6 million.
