Callum Wilson celebrates his hattrick against Huddersfield

Callum Wilson - Bournemouth (£6.0)

Callum Wilson scored a hattrick early last season and was out for the rest of the season shortly after that. His injury saw him miss the early third of this season too. His second start of this season saw him nab a hattrick again! This man is a natural goalscorer and is likely to be in the goals as long as he keeps his fitness. With fixtures of Swansea, Burnley, Southampton and Crystal Palace in the next 4, he could be an excellent third forward to have.

Harry Kane is due to explode

Harry Kane - Spurs (£12.8m)

With a disappointing performance that saw him bag just one point against Arsenal, it's no surprise seeing FPL managers shipping him out in large numbers. He found the net against Dortmund in the Champions League with a princely finish on Thursday night.

Spurs find themselves out of the top 4 after a loss to their north London rivals. They need Kane to deliver more than ever now, and history has shown that he tends to perform when it matters. Facing a manager-less West Brom next, he could be in for some massive returns.

Word of caution: Niasse, who saw his price rise back to £5.0 this week, has been handed a two-match ban for his dive against Crystal Palace. Pep mentioned in his Champions League press conference that he has been forced to alternate between Jesus and Aguero due to Mendy's injury.

This would mean that we could see this Jesus-Aguero rotation happen for most of the rest of the season. With the 'lion' Zlatan making his shock return this week, it is going to be interesting to see if Mourinho starts both Zlatan and Lukaku, or if we see a Manchester City like rotation in the Manchester United lineup as well.
