The Bees&#8217; keeper Mark Flekken might be a hindrance to scoring, but the Manchester City winger and his teammates have enough ammunition to break down the opposition&#8217;s defence.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"styles__ElementHeading-sc-ahs9zc-5 gwmHpL\">Morgan Rogers\u00a0<span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">(\u00a35.1m) \u2013 A Cost-Effective Option for Gameweek 4<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"styles__ElementHeading-sc-ahs9zc-5 gwmHpL\">Morgan Rogers is a shrewd choice for Gameweek 4 since he will be facing Everton, the team with the worst defensive record in the league this season.
