Nathan Ake

Up first on our list is Nathan Ake. You may wonder why we have chosen him over the likes of Ruben Dias, John Stones and Kyle Walker to represent the defence, but the answer is quite simple – not only is he relatively cheap, his points return was also excellent last season.

In the 2022/23 fantasy Premier League campaign, Nathan Ake was Manchester City’s second-highest scoring defender, as he picked up 92 points in total.


The player ahead of, John Stones, picked up just one point more than him – additionally, at £5.5, Stones is £0.5 more expensive than the Dutch international.
