Fantasy Football Tips: 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 10
4. Wayne Rooney
Team: Man Utd Value: £10.9 million Points In GW9: 12 Manchester United will be looking to make it four wins from four in all competitions when David Moyes takes his gradually improving side to Fulham on Saturday afternoon. The defending Premier League champions have been written off by many, but they went undefeated last month, a run of six matches, and haven't lost since West Brom beat them at Old Trafford on the last day of September. Fulham meanwhile appear to be in freefall - with just three wins all season, Martin Jol's side sit 14th in the table and were knocked out of the League Cup by Championship side Leicester midweek. United will be aware of the opportunity to make up ground on the sides currently above them in the table this weekend, with one each of Arsenal/Liverpool and Everton/Tottenham to drop points from their respective fixtures. I expect Moyes's side to go out and beat Fulham, probably be more than a few goals, too, with Wayne Rooney to get his name on the scoresheet.
