Fantasy Football Tips: 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 15

5. Javier Hernandez

Team: Manchester United Value: £7.2 million Points In GW14: 1 There's an opportunity to be coy with your Fantasy Football team selection this weekend, if you see fit. With Wayne Rooney suspended after picking up a yellow card against Everton on Wednesday night, and Robin van Persie still a doubt with a groin injury, manager David Moyes may have no choice but to play Javier Hernandez. The Mexican has been on the fringes at United this season, having not completed 90 minutes of football all season and used primarily as an impact substitute. He's also found himself down in the pecking order behind Danny Welbeck this season and has only scored once in the handful of chances he's been given to impress in the league this term. That's why he's so cheap - £7.2 million - yet he could be pressed into rare action against Newcastle at Old Trafford Saturday lunchtime, and is worth a punt given how affordable he is.
