Top 7 essential players for Fantasy Premier League wildcard: Best FPL wildcard picks Premier LeagueThe Fantasy Premier League Wildcard chip can be an absolute game-changer, and this might be the perfect time to use it after a string of poor performances from the most popular players in the game, but which players are absolutely essential on your wildcard? Here are our top picks. The wildcard can be an invaluable utility in Fantasy Premier League. With the ability to completely change up your team at no cost, it can turn your season around if played well. For that reason, you want to pick players with the chance of scoring you the most points, from a range of teams, based on form, fixtures, and a number of other factors. Here are who we recommend you have to bring in on your wildcard, with a number of them featuring in the best FPL wildcard team. Best FPL wildcard essential picks Mohamed Salah (12.6m, MID) Form: 10.7 – – Kieran Trippier (7.0m, DEF) Form: 9.3 – – Son Heung-min (9.3m, MID) Form: 8.0 – – Matty Cash (4.9m, DEF) Form: 3.3 – – Ollie Watkins (8.3m, FWD) Form: 13.0 – – Bukayo Saka (8.6m, MID) Form: 4.7 – – Jarrod Bowen (7.4m, MID) Form: 6.3 – – When looking at both form and fixtures, it\u2019s hard to look past these players. Haaland features in 91.4% of teams, so we\u2019re assuming most people reading this already have him \u2014 and we wouldn\u2019t recommend transferring him out either. While Salah wasn\u2019t super popular in Gameweek 1, it\u2019s become clear that he\u2019s well worth the investment depending on how you want to build your team, and it\u2019s certainly possible to have him, Haaland, and fellow form star Son in a good FPL team. Saka has a nice run of fixtures that includes Sheffield United, Burnley, Wolves, and Luton in the next 6 weeks, while Bowen, almost overlooked by some on their wildcard, has matches against Everton, Nottingham Forest, and Burnley. Finally, with Aston Villa\u2019s fixtures, we need not mention how imperative Ollie Watkins is in the coming weeks, given the incredible form he\u2019s in. Honorable mentions Those are our essential picks for your FPL wildcard, but there are a number of honorable mentions who should almost certainly be at least considered for your squad. We would advise taking a look at West Ham\u2019s James Ward-Prowse (6.3m, MID) if your budget can\u2019t stretch to Bowen, Newcastle\u2019s Anthony Gordon (5.6m, MID), Brighton\u2019s Kaoru Mitoma (6.5m), and Liverpool\u2019s Kostas Tsimikas (4.5m) are all great options on a reasonable budget to help enable the big hitters. With a limited budget, you\u2019d be hard-pressed to get all of the players we recommend into your team, but it\u2019s worth trying to squeeze most of them in and seeing what cuts could be made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
