Fantasy Premier League Tips: 11 Best Cheap Players

10. Defender: Pablo Zabaleta - £6 Million

Zabaleta Since signing for Manchester City from Espanyol in 2008, Pablo Zabaleta has gone on to establish himself as one of the best fullbacks in the Premier League. The Argentinian formed part of a solid back-line for City last season that also included Vincent Kompany, Matija Nastasic and Gael Clichy and if you want a practically nailed-on clean sheet bonus of 6 points from Fantasy Football, it'd be wise to pick a defender from the Sky Blues seeing as though they don't often ship that many goals. At £6 million, Zabaleta is one of City's more expensive defenders, but you can't really quibble on the price. A goal-scoring fullback, Zabaleta netted twice in the Premier League last season and has been known to take a mean free-kick, and is a good player to have in your side due to his specialty from set-pieces.
