Fantasy Football Tips: 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 24

3. Juan Mata

Team: Man Utd Value: £9.6 million Points In GW23: 6 Juan Mata could be one to watch out for now he has been liberated by Manchester United from the doldrums of the Chelsea substitutes' bench. Mata was the Blue's player of the year two years in a row but fell out of favour under Jose Mourinho, though we might see him start to put in some big performances again now. He made little time impressing on his debut for United, providing an assist in his new side's 2-0 win over Cardiff on Tuesday and I think he will go on to play a key role for the Red Devils. That might mean a stack of points in the process where Fantasy Football is concerned and though he wasn't worth having at the start of the season, he's certainly worthy of a spot in your team now given he's about to be handed a lot more playing time. United next play Stoke City away, who haven't beaten the Red Devils since Boxing Day 1984. This could be another opportunity then for Mata to shine.
