Fantasy Football Tips: 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 7
3. Romelu Lukaku
Team: Everton (On Loan From Chelsea) Value: £7.6 million Points In GW6: 16 Romelu Lukaku has been shifted from pillar-to-post in recent seasons, spending time on loan from Chelsea at West Brom last season and now Everton. But it looks as though the Ivorian is finally settling down having scored against West Ham United in gameweek 5 and twice more against Newcastle on Monday evening. His link-up play with Ross Barkley was particularly impressive, providing an assist for the England international either side of his brace against the Magpies to put the Toffee's three-nil up at half time. At £7.6 million, Lukaku represents something of a bargain, and with Everton starting the season as impressively as they have done, it's certainly worth having a member of their squad in your Fantasy Football team. Their undefeated streak will be put to the test against Manchester City at Etihad Stadium on Saturday, and if Everton get anything out of that game, expect Lukaku's name to be on the score sheet.
