Price: £4.6m 💰
Ownership: 4.9% ✅

3 CS in his last 4 games 🧤

Arsenal looking solid defensively now compared to the start of the season 🛡
Managers with Sanchez can move to Ramsdale when Brighton face Liverpool and City in their next 3 👍

TAA 🔴⚪️

Ownership: 22.0% ✅

Has been declared fit to play this weekend vs Watford 💪

Has only blanked ONCE this season 🔥
Some mixed fixtures for Liverpool but his attacking threat is enough to earn his place in your team 👍

Rudiger 🔵⚪️
Price: £5.8m 💰
Ownership: 20.8% ✅

Slight back injury, but I expect him to play this weekend 👍
Avg 5.14 PPG this season 👀
BRE, NOR, NEW, BUR in their next 4 games – potential for 4 CS here 🛡
Looks to be the most nailed CHE defender 💪

5 CS for City this season! 🛡
Avg 6.28 PPG this season 👀

5x ⚽️ and 4x 🅰️ this season
8.1 PPG this season 👀
