It’s important to begin your Fantasy Premier League season well. We all know that a nightmare start – one that leaves you trailing behind Neil from IT (who admits he’s “more of a rugby man”) in your work league – and the motivation to keep playing can start to wane.

Let’s hope all you fantasy managers had some of this lot in your team, then. According to the highly precise FPL metric, these are the best players in the league this season after six matches.

There’s a healthy mix of goalkeepers, defenders, forwards and what the FPL loosely term 'midfielders' (some of them look very much like out-and-out attacking players to FourFourTwo).

We’ve listed each player’s club, position and points total, and 10 minutes are on the clock. Good luck, and do let us know your score @FourFourTwo. We’ll retweet the best, if you don’t give answers away – and please challenge some friends while you’re at it.

*Among players tied on 25 points, this player is the best value at £4.5m
