Gameweek 9 of the Fantasy Premier League season is almost upon us. As always, it is important to pick out the best players to help your cause in the game. We delve into the best midfielders to pick in GW 9 in this article.
5. Morgan Rogers
Performances wise, Morgan Rogers has had an incredible start to the season. He is definitely a candidate to be the breakout start of the season. He has become a nailed on starter for Aston Villa. As he is quite cheap in the game, he is a nice Fantasy Premier League asset too. But managers were critical of his lack of goal involvements. Those fears may have been misplaced as he now has 5 goal contributions in his last 6 games for Villa. He looks likely to add to that this weekend against Bournemouth.
4. Alejandro Garnacho
Not Bruno Fernandes, not Marcus Rashford but Alejandro Garnacho is in all likelihood Manchester United’s most dangerous player at the moment. The young Argentine is relentless and keeps going at his fullback every time he is on the ball. He often spurs United on when they are down. Fresh off a goal and a match winning performance against Brentford, Garnacho will be looking for a repeat versus West Ham this weekend.

3. Phil Foden
It hasn’t been a good start to the season at all for Phil Foden. Last year, he won the PFA Player of the Year but this season injuries and a lack of form has seen him pick up just one assist in the league. But a goal midweek against Sparta Prague is perhaps a signal Premier League teams should pay heed to. Southampton, this weekend, could well face the full brunt of Foden desperate to prove his worth.
2. Bryan Mbeumo
Both Brentford and Bryan Mbuemo deserve a whole lot of credit for how far they have come. For context, the Frenchman has 6 goals from 8 games so far. An top runner profile, Mbeumo is also very clinical. When he has the creativity around him, he hurts teams a lot. This weekend, it is Ipswich who play Brentford. If you are a betting man, bet on Mbeumo to score.
1. Cole Palmer
One thing that immediately strikes you about Chelsea striker Cole Palmer is his personality. This week he has been criticised after a poor performance in Chelsea’s loss to Liverpool. Everything says that when the Blues take on Newcastle in the this gameweek’s fixture, Palmer will be ready to cause devastation once again, like he has ever since he came to the Stamford Bridge.
