Fantasy Football Tips - 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 18

4. Seamus Coleman

Team: Everton Value: £6.3 million Points In GW17: 8 Another team who have taken everyone by surprise is aforementioned Everton, who have been superb this season under new manager Roberto Martinez. If fans worried about the future of the club after the departure of David Moyes to Manchester United earlier this summer they needn't have, as the Toffee's are above the Scotsman's new employers in fifth and in with a real shout of finishing in the top four or five this season. As well as boasting the best defensive record in the Premier League with just 16 goals conceded, Everton also have the opportunity to go unbeaten at home in the league for a whole calendar year for the first time since 1962. To achieve that feat they must avoid defeat in their last two games at Goodison Park of 2013 - against Sunderland and Southampton - and they should have no problems against the rock-bottom Black Cats on Thursday. Sunderland have been in freefall this season, have already sacked a manager and are on a six-match winless streak. I'm backing Seamus Coleman and his teammates to have a quiet afternoon on Boxing Day.
