Partisan Toffees fan backs all-Everton XI in Gameweek 10 to win Dream Team’s weekly cash prize!

THERE’S more than one way to win money with Dream Team this season.

And nothing highlights this more than Gameweek 10’s winner, Neil Wilkinson, who banked £100 through blind loyalty to his beloved Everton.

Against all logic, Neil selected an XI made up exclusively of Sean Dyche’s troops ahead of fixtures against West Ham and Burnley.

The Toffees beat the Hammers 1-0 at the London Stadium before booking their place in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals with a 3-0 win over the Clarets on Wednesday.

Incredibly, this meant Neil’s joke team – and let’s not beat around the bush, it is a joke team – racked up 199 points by the end of Gameweek 10!

There’s something brilliant about a partisan fan out-performing every other Dream Team manager in the world, many of whom spend hours digging through stats in hope of finding an edge, to win the weekly cash prize.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£2.6m) scored his side’s winner in East London last weekend to bag nine points but it was Vitaliy Mykolenko (£2.4m) who was the big winner in that fixture.

The 0.1%-owned full-back registered six tackles and a bonus point on top of his clean sheet for an 11-point return – he added another eight against Vincent Kompany’s mob.

Everton’s No9 turned from scorer to creator in midweek with an assist against Burnley to finish with 14 points for the Gameweek – his best haul in a long while.

Jack Harrison (£2.6m) and Dwight McNeil (£2.6m) provided an assist each across the two fixtures, pocketing nine and 13 points respectively.

Not that it matters now, but Neil actually made a mistake captaining Abdoulaye Doucoure (£3m) as the 30-year-old notched just four points, making him the second-worst performer in his XI.

As for Michael Keane (£1.9m), he didn’t play a single minute in Gameweek 10 – if only Neil had backed Ashley Young (£1.6m) as his fifth defender, who poached 16 points via a goal and clean sheet in midweek.

Still, there no point focusing on wasted opportunities when the activation of the Park the Bus Booster meant James Tarkowski (£2.4m), Jarrad Branthwaite (£1.6m), Nathan Patterson (£1.5m) and Mykolenko combined for 132 points!

A pair of clean sheets also meant Jordan Pickford (£2.5m) registered almost a third of his total season points.

What else is there to say about this hilariously effective XI?

Neil’s strategy isn’t going to win him any Mini Leagues come the end of the season but he’s earned himself a £100 playing Dream Team – how many gaffers can say that?

A victory for class clowns everywhere!
