FPL Gameweek 35: Bruno Fernandes (£8.3M)
The all-action Portuguese midfielder is in fine form right now – registering 50 points in his past four-game weeks. A brace and an assist against Sheffield United further emphasised the captain’s red-hot streak of form right now, and with a favourable fixture this weekend and a double-game week (37) to come, there is an argument that Fernandes should be right at the top of your buy list regardless of club allegiances.
Rasmus Hojlund (£7.0M)
Danish striker Rasmus Hojlund has impressed in his first season at Old Trafford, especially given how little service he has gotten from his teammates at times.
The 21-year-old has scored eight times in 25 Premier League appearances, a respectable total for a youngster adapting to a new league and environment, all whilst shouldering the pressure of being the main striker in one of the world’s biggest clubs.

Notably, his goals have come in purple patches this season, seven of the eight coming over six games across two months from December to February, and the other one the fourth in Wednesday night’s victory over Chris Wilder’s Blades side. Maybe the former Atalanta man will end the season in the goals?
Harry Maguire (£4.2M)
A shining example of professionalism and proving the doubters wrong, Harry Maguire has looked like the Harry Maguire of old in recent weeks, coming into a defence ravaged by injuries and displaying experience and authority.
