Fantasy Football Tips - 5 Key Transfers For Gameweek 8

2. Yaya Toure

Team: Man City Value: £9.5 Points In GW7: 7 Picking Fantasy Football's highest-scoring midfielder is always a good bet if you want to do well in this game. The Ivorian has been given an extended licence to bomb forward in attack thanks to the recent acquisition of Fernandinho, who has operated in the midfield anchor role in recent weeks. And this has paid off for Manuel Pellegrini's men, with Yaya Toure netting himself four goals and an assist so far this season, making him one of City's stand-out performers. The Sky Blues are currently sitting in a lowly fifth place at present and will be looking to get their campaign up and running again with victory away to West Ham on Saturday. The Hammers are in good form, however, battering Tottenham 3-0 in their last game, but it's difficult to see a similar shock on the cards here with Toure and co. expected to run riot.
