As the deadline looms closer, it is time to decide what to do with our precious free transfer(s). Aside from playing chips or selecting a captain, our transfers are the single most important aspect of our FPL campaign, and the importance of getting it right cannot be overstated.

In this article we crunch the numbers, analyse the fixtures, take advice from the Algorithm, and decide which player to buy, which player to sell and which player to keep for Gameweek 6.

Nottingham Forest has the best fixtures for both attack and defence over the next 6 Gameweeks - taken from Fixture Planner

It may not be reflected in the results, but Nottingham Forest has got off to a strong start this season in terms of performance. If it hadn’t been for the fact that they have had amongst the worst opening fixtures of all teams, they almost certainly would have more goals and clean sheets to their name.

But that is about to change. Looking ahead at the next six Gameweeks, the Fixture Planner rates Nottingham Forest as having the easiest fixtures of all teams for both attack and defence. With that in mind, a defender with attacking threat is the perfect combination, and who better than former Liverpool full back Neco Williams (£4.1m).

If Williams costed £1m more, he would still be worth a punt for the upcoming games, so to be able to bag the Welshman for £4.1m is an easy decision, especially given what could be done with the extra budget.
