Starboy Saka
Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka has been in fine form this season. In his last outing in the league he scored twice and registered one assist against Everton, before netting in England’s 2-0 victory over Ukraine at the weekend. He is getting widespread praise for the level of football he is playing at his age and he is one of the most dangerous attacking talents in the Premier League. At £8.6m, he is one of the most valuable Gunners players to have in your squad. He may not have a double gameweek but with the form that he is in you can rely on him to deliver the goods for your team.
Kane is Spurs’ shining light
Harry Kane is on cloud nine after the past few months. First he became Tottenham Hotspur’s all-time record goalscorer and now he holds that mantle for England too. The Spurs forward is unquestionably one of the greatest strikers that this country has ever produced and you can count on him scoring more goals in the final 10 games of the season and add to his current tally of 21 in the league. While the club is dealing with the recent departure of Antonio Conte, it now falls to Kane to help keep his team inside the top four. Spurs face relegation-threatened Everton at Goodison Park on Monday and Kane is available for £11.8m.
