6 EVERTON
Surprised to see Everton here? Ashley Williams is the reason. The die-hard Welsh defender is one of those rare defenders in football who can handle the entire defensive line singlehandedly, and it’s exactly what Everton need. While John Stones is a major talent, his defence conceded 55 goals last term. OK, Williams’ defence conceded 52 in the end, but all fantasy managers know how many clean sheets Williams provided.
What we want to say is this: should Everton take care of their defensive problems – and Ashley Williams is the best step in that direction – they might join the CL race. Plus, Ronald Koeman is here now and his die-hard attitude is just what this team needs in order to break out of their loser attitude which has been embedded in this team for years.
Expect good things from Everton if they can retain Romelu Lukaku.
