Defenders are very popular in FPL at this time. Alonso is set to provide excellent value in terms of £ to points. As does Mendy. Evertons Michael Keane also provides very good potential value at a low price of just £4.9m.
However with Liverpools fixtures over the next 5 GWs we would say the best bet would be Andrew Robertson, his fixtures over the next 5 are FUL, wat, EVE, bur, bou (HOME/away). Which could yield excellent defensive and attacking points.
