Fantasy Football Tips: 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 22

2. Daniel Sturridge

Team: Liverpool Value: £9.2 million Points In GW21: 9 With Luis Suarez in the side, Liverpool always look menacing, but now, their attack force is even more dangerous with the return from injury of Daniel Sturridge. Sturridge returned from a month-long spell on the sidelines against Stoke City last weekend and made an instant impact by scoring and creating an assist in the Red's barmy 5-3 win. That's all the more impressive when you note he only made a 25 minute cameo from the substitutes' bench. If the England striker can recapture the form that saw him score nine goals in 12 at the start of the season, he's certainly worth putting back in your team, and he represents a cheaper - yet just-as-likely-source-of-goals alternative to the expensive Luis Suarez. Aston Villa have a good record against Liverpool, and have lost just one of their last four matches at Anfield. However, with "S&S" (that's Suarez and Sturridge for the uninitiated) back up front, I just have a feeling that Brendan Rodgers' side have too much for the Villans.
