Patrick van Aanholt has been a sensation at left-back for Crystal Palace since moving from Sunderland a few years ago. His rapid acceleration, tricky dribbling, and eye for goal have made him a first choice option for many FPL managers. And he doesn't disappoint, either - he's got 35 points to his name so far this season, and you can expect a great deal more to come.

Van Aanholt is another player who plays frequently for their club, so there's no worry about having to replace him out just before a game starts because he hasn't made the team.

Van Aanholt is a powerful player to have in the FPL. When he's not only picking up cleansheets, he's firing the ball into the top corner of the opposition's net, thanks to his rocket of a left foot, meaning that the total tally of points he collects is doubled.
