Fantasy Premier League 2018-19: Key Players and Insights ahead of Gameweek 9

#13 Manchester City

An impeccable City defence gives Ederson owners easy clean sheet points

Best Pick: The Cityzens have the best defence in the league, but highly prone to rotation. So who is the most nailed on pick who will not get rotated? It's the goalkeeper - Ederson (£5.7m). Set and forget.

Good to Have: There are many options in this bracket. I will pick one each from forward, midfield and defence. Sergio Aguero (£11.3m), Raheem Sterling (£11.1m) and Benjamin Mendy (£6.2m) will continue to give good returns and are worth the risk despite the rotation threat ever present in the Manchester City squad.

Potential Trap: Leroy Sane (£9.2m) has given some impressive performances, but the manager tends to start only one of him or Mendy, so Sane's minutes might be limited.

#14 Manchester United

Best Pick: No one, as the players are priced high basis their reputation, but are not performing up to their level.

Good to Have: Maybe Luke Shaw (£5.1m), who will deliver the occasional attacking return in addition to some clean sheets.

Potential Trap: It's hard to believe, but with extremely inconsistent performances, almost everyone in the team feels like a trap right now.
