Fantasy Premier League Tips: 5 Essential Transfers For Week 2
3. Frank Lampard
Value: £8 million Team: Chelsea Points In GW1: 13 Those of you who ratcheted up the most points in Gameweek 1 of Fantasy Football probably realised that Chelsea and Aston Villa played twice. And thus is was a cunning plan for you to have picked several players from each of those sides and more so if you happened to have had Frank Lampard. At £8 million, the veteran is one of the cheaper options in midfield and takes penalties and free-kicks, too, making him a likely goal-scorer. Though Lamps actually missed a spot-kick against Hull, the England international soon made amends by blasting in a free-kick in the 2-0 win before providing the assist for Branislav Ivanovic's winning goal in last night's 2-1 win over Villa. Though it's questionable if he'll play every week, he's definitely worth having this season. Next Game: Manchester United (A)
