Fantasy Football Tips: 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 27
3.Daniel Sturridge
Team: Liverpool Value: £10.1 million Points In GW26: 15 Yes, again. Daniel Sturridge figures on our lists of essential players a lot recently, but if you haven't bought him already this really is the last call as his price is rising every week. Many people are reluctant to get Sturridge on board as they don't want or can't afford two Liverpool strikers, and Luiz Suarez for many is still somewhat a "must-have". Daniel Sturridge was very consistent at the beginning of the season prior to his ankle injury, and has since come back even stronger than ever. He has scored at least one goal in every Premier League game since his comeback on 12th January. To be precise he managed seven goals and three assists in the last six league games. He was on the verge of breaking Liverpool's record and becoming the first player to score in nine consecutive games but he was denied his chance by an in-form Arsenal defence in their FA cup clash on Sunday. Sturridge is still significantly cheaper than Suarez (£13.4 million) and has been getting more points for the last three weeks. With the upcoming fixture being Swansea at home having both of them is not a bad option either. That would mean spending almost a fourth of your budget on two players; however, not to worry, the last two suggestions in the list will help you get quality players at reasonable prices.
