#4 Charlie Daniels (Bournemouth)

Amongst cheap defensive options, the first defender to cross our minds and make a permanent impression is Charlie Daniels. Quite frankly, it was a hard decision to ignore other Bournemouth defenders like Adam Smith or Steve Cook who are even cheaper but they can only be almost as impressive despite a series of strong performances.

Overall, Bournemouth's backline looks tactically sound while they also add on in providing for their forward men. Such an asset is a mastermind of a manager looking for potential defender options and Charlie Daniels fits the bill with his high influence and creativity.

Having conceded only once in last four games at home and facing a succession of relatively easy fixtures, Daniels priced at £5.0m comes highly recommended. Bournemouth host Sunderland in the next game who are experiencing their worst ever start to a season and have only two points from 10 games. Then a trip away to Stoke City at the Brittania still seems to be a bright prospect for points as the Potters are showing glimpses but no promises of form.

Upcoming fixtures: Sunderland (H), Stoke City (A), Arsenal (A)
