While Porro’s big share of corners adds to his prospects of assists, Cristian Romero (£5.1m) is the main goal threat at set-pieces with 10 headed shots.So, who are the best Spurs picks?
Son’s all-round appeal is backed up by the underlying numbers as the go-to Spurs pick for DGW35 and beyond.
Whether managers will be brave enough to captain the South Korean over Cole Palmer (£6.2m) for DGW35 is another matter entirely. Palmer has outscored Son by 84 points to 37 over their last six matches, bettering him by 10 goals to two and mirroring his three assists.
Johnson’s big-chance involvement and overall style of play marks him out as the second-best option among the Spurs attackers. He appears to have secured a regular role and, at a cost of £5.8m, he could offer big value over the final four Gameweeks.
At the back, Porro is among the standout defenders for attacking potential, with his share of corners adding to his appeal.
Although owners of the injured Destiny Udogie (£5.0m) may be tempted by a move to Porro to cover the Spurs backline for their six matches, Spurs’ unreliable defensive form indicates the Spaniard, at a cost of £5.8m, is far from essential.
Newcastle’s Fabian Schar (£5.6m) or Manchester United’s Diogo Dalot (£5.2m) both tick a number of boxes as alternatives. They each play at home to a promoted side in DGW35, against Sheffield United and Burnley respectively, while also having a DGW37.I think Newcastle and Man City players should be top priority, with both teams having a great DGW37. Isak, Anthony Gordon (£6.1m), Foden and Kevin De Bruyne (£10.4m) are all great picks, but I would also be comfortable holding Arsenal defenders, with the title race so close.
