Fantasy Tips for Gameweek 8
They say you realize one’s true worth after you lose them, or after you let them go; but that surely isn’t the case with international breaks. They have and will be an aberration in the international football calendar, frustrating fans and players alike!
But it is done and life is beautiful again.
Club football is back and the Premier League has some delightful games in store for us, with Liverpool vs United leading the way. And with the Premier League, fans all over the world will also welcome back the Fantasy Premier League, something that is very dear to every fan, who believes he/she is the best judge of how the play should be carried out on the field and how every team should line up.
Let’s get to business now!
Goalkeeper
Ben Forster and Jordan Pickford are my two goalkeepers as of now and I would stick with both of them, as they are extremely good value picks!
Pickford has been the surprise pick, as I had opted for him just as a back up keeper but he has constantly help his side get crucial clean sheets, and in turn has helped me have an extra goalkeeping option, something that I normally don’t look for!
I would go for Pickford as my keeper for this game as he has an easier fixture than Forster. Sunderland play Stoke, a team that is really struggling to score goals, whereas on the other hand, Ben Forster would be up against a strong and free flowing Spurs side and hence I go with Pickford as my first choice keeper for this game
