Fantasy Premier League Tips: 10 Last Minute Players You Should Consider
3. Sead Kolasinac
Club: Arsenal
Cost: £6m
What a difference a game makes. Arsenal's Sead Kolasinac was selected by just 5.5% of FPL managers prior to the Community Shield, but this has since shot up to 11.1%. His exuberant performance has caught the country's attention, and while there's an outside chance Nacho Monreal may start ahead of him, Kolasinac's debut was extremely encouraging.
Tireless, gritty, and full of blood and thunder, Kolasinac looks like the most un-Arsenal player Arsene Wenger has signed in years, and exactly what they need. Get on-board now, because if he continues this level of performance, he's in for a huge season at the Emirates.
We're not just basing his selection on a single game either. By all accounts, Kolasinac was outstanding for Schalke last term, and his performances saw him pip David Alaba to a spot in the official Bundesliga team of the season. With 3 goals and 5 assists in 2016-17, he looks like the kind of player who can score points at both ends of the Fantasy pitch too.
