Three Premier League Fantasy Options Worth Taking Seriously

Three Premier League Fantasy Options Worth Taking Seriously

Every season as we prepare to select our Fantasy Premier League teams, there are often players we glance at but never end up selecting. However, sometimes they might just prove their worth, consistently scoring us a steady stream of priceless points. These are a few that could be worth taking a chance on.

Jarrod Bowen
Since making the £18 million switch from Hull City to West Ham United in January 2020, Jarrod Bowen’s career has continued its upward trajectory. Tactically and positionally flexible, the 24-year-old can play anywhere across the attacking line.

The latest football betting odds price West Ham as 100/1 outsiders to win the Premier League, although they could potentially repeat the top-six finish secured last season. Bowen has demonstrated superb versatility, playing on either flank or through the middle, and his teamwork is exemplary.

Bowen contributed 8 goals and 5 assists in the Premier League last season, which is more than respectable. He also produced the kind of consistency that fantasy managers love to have in their sides, not to mention his real-life Hammers boss David Moyes.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin
Ask anyone who chose Dominic Calvert-Lewin for their fantasy teams last season and the chances are they will have been absolutely delighted with his points contribution. Undoubtedly overlooked by many, the Everton striker certainly proved his worth.

Having hit double figures for the first time during the 2019-20 season, Calvert-Lewin scored 16 goals in 33 Premier League appearances last term, plus two in the FA Cup and three in the League Cup. According to transfer estimates, unsurprisingly, his market value has now soared.

Carlo Ancelotti managed to get the best out of Calvert-Lewin, which might give some people cause for concern about whether his positive trajectory will continue. Nevertheless, the 24-year-old might actually bag more goals with Rafa Benitez at the managerial helm.

James Tarkowski
Frequently linked with moves to bigger clubs by the transfer gossip columns, the fact that James Tarkowski remains at Burnley is perhaps remarkable in itself. Nevertheless, the 28-year-old has always appeared content to stay with the Turf Moor club.

Having now spent five seasons in the Premier League with the Clarets, central defender Tarkowski is the personification of solidity at the back. One look at his match statistics is enough to inspire confidence, as he is always ranking amongst the top Burnley players.

Tarkowski usually offers great value for fantasy teams, especially compared to other defenders who can use up far more of our budgets. For the level of reliability he provides, this is one player who shouldn’t be overlooked again.

Solid Considerations
We often overlook some of these players because they are at clubs we don’t fancy. Maybe they haven’t quite fulfilled the potential they promised individually in the past. Perhaps they just don’t fit the style or profile of the players we prefer to pick.

The reasons for browsing beyond the players mentioned could be varied, but given how they have performed in recent seasons, the 2021-22 Premier League might be the right time to give them the chance they deserve. Good luck, and may they bring you many fantasy points.
