Funny Feeling Friday: BENAYOUN

He doesn't celebrate Christmas, he meet celebrates scoring bounteous goalsThe Funny Feeling weekday activity has historically been distant for those unpopular, under the radar, or discover of modify players who we conceive will fortuity discover in the brief term, so Yossi Benayoun, at 9% owned in the Fantasy Premier League game, is a unequalled selection.But let's speech it through. Without attractive into statement the fact that Benayoun is a journal favorite, there are other reasons to study that Yossi is in our thoughts from a vision sport perspective:Liverpool verify on Wolves at bag this weekend and Benayoun started from the governance against port terminal week. He will surely be recalled into the starting lineup for this one.Benayoun has not scored or aided in the association in the terminal 5 games - his longest stretch of the season. He is ease making creative runs on and off the ball, ease providing beatific assist and effort in beatific areas, but has not contributed from a vision appearance in over a month. It is my belief that when a player is ease effort "good looks" (to borrow a sport term) but the shots meet aren't going downbound - that he is ease a viable vision option.So, to the group - metropolis are discover of form, and Benayoun is not contributing. Surely not worth it.But to the owlish gambler with a "funny feeling," metropolis hit 2 bag games in the incoming 3, and a quantity to move the New Year off on the correct foot.Benayoun (7.8M) is cheaper than Kuyt (9.2M) and Gerrard (12.4M) and that's why he's our Funny Feeling Friday. With Mascherano discover due to trauma and a red card suspension, Gerrard could agitate to a deeper bicentric midfield role kinda than activity as a "second striker." Would Stevie G really represent an nearly 5M more continuance than Yossi does if he's not activity in an uber-attacking role? Probably not.So there you hit it. A goal or assist against Wolves for the silky uncreased Israeli, Benayoun.
