Fantasy Football Tips: 6 Essential Transfers You Must Make In Gameweek 31 - Part 1

Who Should Be The Captain?

Yaya Touré

Team: Liverpool (vs Cardiff City, away) Position: Midfielder Value: £10.1m Selected by: 42.7% Total score: 165 Against bottom-of-the-table Fulham, and playing at home, it would take a miracle for City to lose. Having scored only eight points in their last 11 games letting in 24 goals in the process, Fulham will very likely get trashed. Given Fulham's expected defensive mentality, Yaya Touré would probably be given the license to roam and play in a more advanced attacking position. Hence, expect bonus points. With a tendency to score against weaker adversaries, the big Ivorian will probably notch up a couple of points for goals and assists in a bid to add to his tally of 13 goals and five assists. With only 11 goals in the past three months, this should be a great opportunity for City players to earn some clean sheet points as well. Against a soft Fulham side whose survival instincts would probably only kick in sometimes later, even Felix Magath's unconventional coaching methods, who helped the team to three points in a rather surprising single goal victory against Newcastle United the previous week, cannot prevent a potentially devastating annihilation. I'm expecting the Ivorian, should he play the full 90 minutes, to get a good eight to ten points, resulting in a nice double. Should you not have Touré, his engine room partner David Silva is an equally viable option as well. If you have both of them, it's really down to your instincts. What if you do not have the above mentioned players in your squad? Take a look at my other recommendations: Seamus Coleman/Romelu Lukaku (Everton) vs Swansea City, home.
