#5 Andy Carroll

Price- $10-$17 million

Team-West Ham United

OVR-77

Heading- 88

Andy Carroll is the perfect target man and is very cheap. He wins almost all aerial duels and is very good of set plays. He scores bundles of goals for West Ham in most seasons and is value for money. He is a good asset to have in your team and is very effective as a sub. Don’t miss out on Carroll if you love playing long balls and taking alot of corners.

Opinion: Carroll is the type of player who will get you goals in most games and is a smart buy for a small amount and he’s only 25. Try to get him early, before he scores too many goals and his price sky rockets.

#4 Fernando Llorente

Price- $20-$25 million

Team- Juventus

OVR- 82

Heading-87

He’s just joined Juve so won’t be available in the first window, and he’s reaching 30 so his rating will begin to dip. If you’re looking for a relatively cheap striker who can play as a target man, and score a few headers for a couple of seasons, sign him!

Opinion: If you’re able to sign him for less than 15 million in January, then get him. Paying 25 million is not worth it when you could use that so much more efficiently else where.

#3 Tim Cahill

Price-Under $10 million

Club: York Red BullsOVR – 75Heading – 89

He isn’t the tallest man on the pitch, but he is an insane header of the ball. The Australian is very cheap and is deadly of set piece routines. He’s perfect in the last 10 minutes when there are numuerous corners and free kicks, as he willl help in scoring and will also defend them well.

Opinion: If you’re at a big club, a small amount for him wouldn’t hurt. So get him on board.

#2 Radamel Falcao

Price- $70 million

Club- AS Monaco

OVR-90

Heading-89

The big Colombian is the best header of the ball when it comes to strikers, however this attribute alone is not enough for you to pay Monaco 60-80 million dollars. So, unless you’re good at shooting from range, or having brilliant play makers in your team, he’s not worth it and he’s already relatively old (28).

Opinion: Not worth it, if you predominantly use corners. If you have an all round style of play, then he's an okay choice.

#1 Nemanja Vidic

Price - $30 million

Club- Manchester United

OVR- 87

Heading- 90

The United skipper who’s on his way to Inter ranks top on our list and has the highest heading rating. He is one of the best of corners and will get you goals of corner routines, very important ones, He is a tad expenisve but if you’re style of play revolves around corners, then you can’t miss him.

Opinion: If you have enough to shell out $20-$30 and have a good set piece taker, then Vidic is a good buy.
