Defenders

Gabriel (£6.0m) – Arsenal: A reliable defender who scored four league goals last season, accumulating 149 points.
Pedro Porro (£5.5m) – Tottenham: Given freedom to thrive in attack, with seven assists, three goals, and 136 points last season.
Marc Cucurella (£5.0m) – Chelsea: Solid performances at Euro 2024, a potentially valuable left-back addition.
Marcos Senesi (£5.0m) – Bournemouth: Scored four goals and provided five assists last season, a shrewd pick from a growing team.
Marc Guehi (£4.5m) – Crystal Palace: A rock-solid center-back, likely to keep clean sheets.
Leny Yoro (£4.5m) – Manchester United: A gamble pick with high potential, despite potential injury concerns.
Midfielders

Phil Foden (£9.5m) – Manchester City: A cheaper option than other high-quality midfielders, despite a disappointing Euro 2024 campaign.

Eberechi Eze (£7m) – Crystal Palace: Big expectations for the season, expected to have another excellent year.
Savinho (£6.5m) – Manchester City: A new winger with potential, impressing at Girona with nine goals and 10 assists last season.

Forwards
Alexander Isak (£8.5m) – Newcastle: Netted 21 goals in just 30 Premier League appearances last season, a target for top clubs.
Jean-Philippe Mateta (£7.5m) – Crystal Palace: Scored nine league goals in the final six matches last season, a potential gem.
Ivan Toney (£7.5m) – Brentford: A disrupted season last year, but should be a reliable goal scorer with a full pre-season.
Cody Gakpo (£7.5m) – Liverpool: Superb for the Netherlands at Euro 2024, could be a shrewd FPL choice if he brings that form to Liverpool.
Joshua Zirkzee (£7.0m) – Manchester United: Scored 11 Serie A goals last season, capable of scoring freely but may take time to settle in.
Matheus Cunha (£6.5m) – Wolves: Excellent first full season in the Premier League, aiming for even greater consistency this year.
Joao Pedro (£5.5m) – Brighton: A good cheap attacking option, expected to be even better this season.
Erling Haaland (£15m) – Manchester City: The most expensive forward but with good reason, an impressive 217 points last season and 272 the season before, should be a top performer.
