Fantasy Football Tips - 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 16

5. Roberto Soldado

Team: Spurs Value: £8.6 million Points In GW15: 0 Robert Soldado has come in for much criticism following his £26 million move from Valencia over the summer, with his goalscoring rate called into question by some. Having only scored four goals this season, the Spaniard has found himself out of the Tottenham side for the past two weeks, with Jermaine Defoe preferred up front by manager Andre Villas-Boas. However, Soldado answered his critics in resounding fashion by blowing Anzhi Makhachkala away with a devastating hat-trick in Spurs's 4-1 win over the Russians in the Europa League last night. The 28-year-old will therefore be heading into his side's home clash with Liverpool in confident mood, and I have a feeling Tottenham might beat the Reds this weekend. Villas-Boas has warned Soldado may not retain his place in the starting XI on Sunday, but it'd be difficult to keep him out of the side after last night's heroics.
