Fantasy Premier League Tips: 11 Most Popular Buys

10. Ricky Lambert (Southampton) - 22.3% Of Teams Selected

Another player who had a fantastic debut in the Premier League. However, things look a little more positive for the 31-year-old. He played and scored on his first day back, he's been capped for England in the past while, and he's looking like Southampton's primary striker for the season. At £7.5 million, he's well worth the asking price. And before you ask, he played every single game last season; not bad for a 31-year-old striker in one of the world's toughest leagues.
