Its still early days in the realms of Fantasy Premier League, but that doesn’t stop us hunting for players who can propel us into the kingdom of FPL glory. Many managers have brought in the likes of Neto (£5.5 mil) and Leon Bailey (£5.0 mil) as enablers, but to be honest so far they have been as dead as a door nail. Premium defenders have been priced high, which means compromises need to be made elsewhere, however I believe many people are overlooking a player who’s current stats display huge potential!
Jack Harrison (£6.0 mil)
Surprisingly he is only owned by 1.4% of FPL managers, even after scoring 10 points across the first 2 games. Over 73 appearances in the EPL he has scored a total of 16 goals and 11 assists, now that might sound quite underwhelming, but for a left winger I think that’s pretty damn good, especially whilst playing in a team that played the majority of last season without a striker. Interestingly he currently sits at the top of the table in terms of chances created so far with 11, which staggeringly equates to 5.7 chances per 90!
Now I know what you’re thinking, Leeds play Chelsea next, so whats the point in getting him in this early? Well they play at Elland Road on Sunday which is an absolute cauldron of a place, the odds on Leeds getting a goal are high and with the stats that this lads pushing out, its highly likely that he will be in the mix to either score or get an assist. Lets remember there are a number of clubs gunning for the 25 year old’s signature, Newcastle being one of them, so confidence will be high for him. My advice would be to strike whilst the irons hot, before he inevitably rises to £6.1 mill, stumping your move. Post Chelsea Leeds fixture include, Brighton, Everton, Brentford, Forest and Man Utd.
Thanks for reading and good luck!!
