The player has dominated from the left wing back position

Antonio Conte has well and truly changed the current Chelsea team and has certainly brought a lot of defensive stability to his side. The Blues have kept a total of 5 consecutive clean sheets. Marcos Alonso currently leads Chelsea with an average of four tackles a game and is third when it comes to clearances.

The player has dominated from the left wing back position and can be seen moving the ball forward a lot. His stock has continued to rise and it would be essential to grab him at this stage before it shoots up further.

A fixture against Middlesbrough should not be a tough task when it comes to the defensive side of the game. Alonso is the ideal pick if you’re looking at someone who not only brings points through clean sheets but can also help you with forward contributions.

Next 3 fixtures: Middlesbrough(H), Tottenham(A), Manchester City(A)
