Fantasy Football: Three players you need for Gameweek 12

After the international break Premier League football is back this weekend with some mouth-watering ties.

Fantasy Football: Three players you need for Gameweek 12

Two weeks ago two out three players performed as I hoped with Nathaniel Clyne and Nacer Chadli picking up points.

Here are three more players you should get into your team this week.

Fraser Forster (Price: 5.3)

A good shot stopper between the sticks is always a good way of picking up a few extra points. At 5.3 million he is perhaps on the expensive side of things for a goalkeeper but he has picked up 18 points in his last three league outings. He’s been the best fantasy goalkeeper so far this year and is also part of the league’s best defence this season. His Southampton side take on Aston Villa who have been struggling in front of goal, so Forster may very easily add to his five clean sheets this season.

Alexis Sánchez (Price: 10.9)

There is no denying, Sanchez is an expensive player to get in. But as Arsenal prepares to welcome Man United to the Emirates all eyes will be focused on the dual between Sanchez and his opposition’s marquee signing Angel Di Maria. Going on form, it has to be Sanchez. Eight goals compared to Di Maria’s three, the game on Sunday is made for one of these two to put in a big performance, and my money is on Sanchez.

Bojan Krkic (Price: 4.9)

When the former Barcelona man signed for Stoke it has hailed as quite a coup, but it’s been a slow start for the 24 year old. But last time out he burst into life, scoring a superb goal against Tottenham and if he continues that form when Stoke take on Burnley this could be a fine piece of business. He’s pretty cheap at just 4.9 million and Stoke have found themselves performing above all expectations, sitting on top of Everton, Liverpool and Spurs in 9th position in the league. If manager Mark Hughes puts his faith Bojan, he will get goals and get you points.
