JOE’s Fantasy Football Tips – week 14

Three from us, three from you

Tom Victor

Cesc Fabregas was the star of the show among last week’s fantasy league picks, and we hope to pick out another gem this time around.

The Chelsea man amassed three bonus points after laying on the winner for Diego Costa against Norwich.

Here’s an update on how that leaves our JOE v The Readers contest so far…

Readers	23	Vardy 7	Kone 5	Mata 3	38

So, how about this week…

Seb Larsson – Midfield – £5.1m

Larsson made his first start in over a month at Selhurst Park, helping Sunderland record their first away league win of the season.

The former Arsenal midfielder will hope to keep his place for the visit of a Stoke side who have been surprisingly resilient in defence.

Sunderland’s best hope of getting the better of the Potters will come from set-pieces, and the Swede can deliver a better ball than most.

Sergio Aguero – Forward – £13.1m

After picking a few less heralded players over the last couple of weeks, we thought we’d let ourselves sneak a bigger name into our selection.

Manchester City’s 4-1 defeat to Liverpool showed that, even with the rest of the team underperforming, Sergio Aguero is always capable of producing something from nothing.

The Argentine will hope to put in a big performance against Southampton to help City bounce back straight away.

Yohan Cabaye – Midfield – £6.7m

If anyone knows how to neutralise Newcastle, it’s Alan Pardew.

Magpies fans will tell you he was doing just that while in charge of the club, but his relatively impressive spell in charge at Crystal Palace will have Steve McClaren worried ahead of this weekend’s meeting.

Plenty of Pardew’s former charges are still at St James’ Park, which means another – Yohan Cabaye – will feel he knows how to take advantage when the two teams face off in South London.
