Fantasy Premier League Tips: 11 Essential Players You Must Consider
5. Cesc Fabregas (Chelsea)
Fantasy Football fans will have another opportunity to put Cesc Fabregas in their virtual teams this season following his return to England earlier this summer. Fabregas has joined Chelsea from Barcelona and will get a second crack of the whip at the Premier League three years on from his first spell in the division. Fabregas was one of the best players in the Premiership during his first stay in England and, between 200607 and 201011, created the most chances in the top leagues of England, Spain, Italy, Germany and France. The midfielder also made 98 assists for the Gunners to earn a reputation as one of the topflight's most creative midfielders. And if the 27-year-old can replicate that kind of form during his second stint in England, he will be well worth the £9 million it's currently going to cost you to stick him in your Fantasy Football team. Fabregas has already proven himself in the Premier League, meaning it could prove a sound choice to stick him in your squad.
