We all know points make prizes when it comes to fantasy football.
That’s why it’s important to pick the players in the Premier League who know how to score goals or create assists.
But every so often, we unearth a rare Dream Team gem that can do BOTH.
We’ve listed five players we think could hit double digits for both goals and assists this season…
Sterling heads into the 2019/20 season as the most-picked player on Dream Team so far, with over 50% of fantasy gaffers opting for him.
It makes perfect sense really, as Sterling finished last season with the second-best points return on our game, with only Eden Hazard ending the campaign with more.
The Man City forward was a key figure in their Premier League title-winning run, netting 17 goals and complementing his haul with an extra 10 assists.
With City looking to go all out for the Champions League this season – as well as retain their league crown – there’s a good chance we can expect a similar return from the England hero.
Bournemouth’s hotshot has made a name for himself in the Premier League for his goalscoring ability, but did you know he’s just as good at setting up the odd goal here and there, too?
Last term, Wilson netted 14 goals as Bournemouth finished comfortably mid-table, and he even helped out his talented teammates by laying on nine assists.
He was a Dream Team favourite last time out too, and is currently gracing 5% of teams on the game heading into the new campaign.
Richarlison heads into his second season at Everton as one of the biggest South American stars in the Premier League, after starring in Brazil’s Copa America triumph earlier in the summer.
At just 22, we’re definitely expecting to see even more from him over the next few years, and we’d love to see him improve on his haul of 14 goals last time out.
Much like Wilson, Aguero is renowned for his goalscoring prowess and the little Argentinian will no doubt go down as one of the Premier League’s all-time greats.
Having scored 21 times in the league last season, Aguero has now hit 20 or more goals in the English top-flight on six occasions.
But surprisingly, his game isn’t just about goals and last year he managed to assist eight times for his teammates.
Liverpool will be right on Man City’s tail again this season, with the Reds desperate to secure their first Premier League crown.
If they’re going to do it, then Salah will surely provide the bulk of their attacking stats, having ended 2018/19 as their joint top-scorer in the league (alongside Sadio Mane) with 22 goals.
With the likes of Mane, Roberto Firmino and Rhian Brewster around him, he’s likely to improve on his tally of eight assists from last time out too.
Picking your team name is just as important as assembling your squad in the first place.
Witty? Original? Anything but Neville Wears Prada for the 12th year in a row?
We’ve created an extensive list of classics which might help you decide if you’re struggling…
This season Mo Salah and Sergio Aguero lead the way on £7.5m, with Harry Kane nicely placed just behind on £7m.
