Moving onto midfield options, Bruno Fernandes is an absolute must. Arriving in January, the Portuguese has featured five times for Manchester United, scoring twice and providing three assists.

The new signing already plays a key role in United's attacks, and also occupies some set-piece duties. Expect to see his goal contribution increase in the coming month, as he displays an elite mentality which is going to benefit the Red Devils for the remainder of the season.

With United in fifth place ahead of 2019/20's restart, the club will be eyeing the possibility of Champions League football next season. Luckily, Bruno's remaining games are on the kind side, with only two of the nine fixtures being top-half opposition. The star man will be looking to continue his team's form and help them achieve a top-four finish.

With De Bruyne and Salah leading the way on total points, Fernandes should be regarded as essential for fantasy teams. The midfielder is significantly cheaper than the pace-setters, at the price of £8.6m, and is likely to be a standout player during the restart.
