Hector Bellerin, Arsenal

#9 Toby Alderweireld - £6.5m

Alderweireld is a rock in the Spurs back four

Toby Alderweireld is another must have for any fantasy manager out there. The defender had one of his best seasons last time around and was a major part in Spurs' run for the title.

Alderweireld is an ever present in the Tottenham side and played every single minute of the last campaign.

Ony second to Bellerin in terms of defender points, Alderweireld got a major chunk of his points through his offensive abilities. With 4 goals, he was the second highest scoring defender in the league.

He also chipped in with 3 assists and received 16 bonus points. With the addition of Victor Wanyama to the midfield, the Spurs defence is expected to get even more solid. Alderweireld is priced at £6.5m, similar to Hector Bellerin.

First six fixtures: Everton(A) Crystal Palace(H) Liverpool(H) Stoke(A) Sunderland(H) Middlesbrough(A)
