The Numbers Game – Midfielders – 6.5 or Less

Our first of this week’s members articles casts an eye over the increasing number of options in the mid-price midfield bracket.

After Joe Allen and Ilkay Gundogan were subject to major bandwagons in Gameweek 11, Hull’s Robert Snodgrass emerged from the bench to grab a goal and assist at home to Southampton, serving a reminder of his points potential ahead of some fine upcoming fixtures.

With the fitness of West Brom’s Nacer Chadli being keenly monitored prior to the weekend, we take a look at some of the key midfield protagonists priced at 6.5 and under in Fantasy Premier League.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    F.F.S Lallana injured reason why I hate international games. Don't give a toss about players playing for their country. All I care about players being fit to play for Liverpool Fc.

    Lallana still unflagged. Someone think about the casuals who will be buying him after seeing him score a goal.

    Well Lallana's injury looked more a precautionary one ..... was hopping and was walking good

    think he will be fine for this gameweek

    but the flag looks imminent I as fpl is very quick in flagging players not so other way around though
