Fantasy Football Tips: 5 Players It's Worth Using Your Wildcard On

2. Daniel Sturridge

Daniel Sturridge Points To SkyTeam: Liverpool Value: £9.5 million Points In GW5: 2 Don't be deterred by the fact Daniel Sturridge only raked in two points in the last gameweek, or by the fact it has now been two successive games since the striker scored a goal. There wasn't a single good performer in Liverpool's 1-0 slump to Southampton last weekend while the Reds were unlucky to lose by the same scoreline against Manchester United in the League Cup on Wednesday. All good forwards go through the occasional drought and Sturridge is still very much worth having in your side if you haven't got him already. Liverpool take on rock-bottom, rudderless Sunderland at the weekend, who have yet to win a Premier League game in any of their last five attempts. This game then is as good an opportunity as any for the Reds to bounce back from their win-less streak and for Sturridge to get himself amongst the goals against the beleaguered Black Cats.
