surprise fantasy league players

Is he a high points scorer though? I really rate him as a player, and you know he'll be in the team every week if he's fit, but i didn't realise he got that many goals/assists?

Paul Robinson is a great shout for a goalkeeper, especially seeing as Blackburn under Sam Allardyce are fairly mean defensively. He's ridiculously cheap at 4.5 (when the cheapest goalies get is 4).
 
My punts are Carroll (Newcastle) up front - he looked pretty sharp last season,

N'Zogbia (Wigan) in midfield - cheap and got a good point haul last year. If he has a good start I might cash in and replace with more consistent midfielder.

Johnson (Birmingham) in defense - hoping for another clean sheet run like last season and then I can sell him and hopefully get a good return.
 
Scott Parker is a must for me, not sure if others see it this way but i don't think there is a better player at his role in the country,

Problem is fantasy football works on clean sheets and goals/assists, at West Ham theres few clean sheets, and he's just not there to get goals and assists. DM's are mostly a bad idea for fantasy football.
N'Zogbia was under rated by many last season, but did very well and is still exceptional value for the points return, but will Wigan be good enough this year to let him do the same, maybe not, however they've got a couple quality people upfront and he is good enough to create chances and score against anyone.

Some West Ham players could be very good value though, Grant is a great manager and West Ham have by far the most talented squad in the bottom half and only due to having most of the first team out for around 1/3 of the season at various times did they do so badly. They've also added some real quality and strength in weak positions, probably Haim instead of Spectre, who was dreadful, Ilunga who is a truly excellent left back should be fit rather than out the whole season. Parker starting a season fresh, Cole aswell, Piqioune(whoever you spell it) is a quality addition and the kind of fast striker with good movement that will thrive off Cole's movement. upson looked superb at the start of last season, then was it Torres took him out and was never the same when he came back.

but the team were in awful form and with injuries, Upson could be due a good season if West Ham click early on and get some form.

West Ham are probably going to surprise most people this season and so a few of their players could be potentially very cheap/high points getting players.
 
Last season in Torygraph JT was the only defender scoring real points so there were some relative bargains to be had; Ivanovic, Cuellar and Insua were all super cheap and had massive points/value ratio.

In midfield fat Frank was a must as was Cesc and Etherington was another super cheap player with a good ratio (relentless MofM awards which Torygraph have stopped this year)

Up Top, Drogba was the best value player in the competition and Rodallega was a relentless start and goal or assist every week.
 
im putting down sanli tuncay as me best pound for pound signing this weekend.

he is a mid on the fantasy league but might start up front. and only 5.5 mill... put that in your pipe and smoke it,
