#2 Kyle Walker - 6.0m
Trending
The Englishman’s stock has risen from 5.5m to 6.0m and is currently selected in over 35% of all teams. The right back has been the highest point getter in the Spurs defence and will continue to do so if he maintains his form.
Walker’s bombarding runs down the right side are a key part of his game, and his ability to attack at will has really helped Tottenham. At 6.0m, he is not the cheapest defender around, however his premium price guarantees premium returns as well.
The Tottenham man has assisted twice in the league and is often a contender for the bonus points. This week, Spurs play a Bournemouth side who thumped Hull City 6-1 last week. Spurs’ next game after that will be against defending champions, Leicester City, who have been nowhere close to their form from last season.
Leicester haven’t scored in the last two games and a solid defensive unit like Spurs should do well against them.
After that, they play the North London derby, which could end up being a cagey affair or one full of action and goals. Matches like these are generally low scoring and could give managers more than decent returns from your defenders.
Next three fixtures: Bournemouth (A), Leicester City (H), Arsenal (A)
