The Premier Leagues top clubs have not held back from splashing the cash this summer, but just how valuable are the big signings so far? Before even seeing how the latest acquisitions fit into new systems during pre-season, Sky Sports Fantasy Football have had to answer that exact question while reviewing their player values ahead of the new campaign. Pick your team Who will star in 2016/17? Select your Sky Sports Fantasy Football team here. Following the launch of the 2016/17 version, here is how the top signings so far price up and how many points those players would have picked up based of their stats from last season...Nolito (Manchester City)Sky Sports Fantasy Football valuation: £10.3mEstimated points total for 2015/16: 203 Nolito celebrates his goal against Turkey in Euro 2016 Pep Guardiolas arrival at Manchester City is likely to spark a number of changes at the club and Nolito is unlikely to be the biggest name he brings to the Etihad. The forward arrives from Celta Vigo after claiming 12 goals and seven assists from 27 appearances in La Liga last season. The direct, strong dribbler found the net against Turkey during Euro 2016 and is valued at £10.3m, just one notch below Andy Carroll, Shane Long and Odion Ighalo, among others.Vincent Janssen (Tottenham)Sky Sports Fantasy Football valuation: £10.3mEstimated points total for 2015/16: 284 Vincent Janssen bolsters Tottenhams attacking options For the same price as Nolito, Fantasy Football managers could turn to Tottenham new man Janssen, who was the top scorer in the Eredivisie last season. The 22-year-old picked up four assists to go along with his 27 goals and will be looking to push the second-highest valued player in the whole game, Harry Kane, for a place in the Spurs team. Ahmed Musa (Leicester) Sky Sports Fantasy Football valuation: £10.5mEstimated points total for 2015/16: 184 Leicester City unveil new signing Ahmed Musa The pressure on Leicesters shoulders will be immense this season and those new to the club obviously have a lot to live up to, although Claudio Ranieri will be hoping hes discovered another hidden gem in the shape of Nigeria attacking midfielder Musa. Hes listed as a striker, and not a cheap one at £10.5m, but he offers value compared to the likes of Troy Deeney, Jermain Defoe or Kelechi Iheanacho. Musa scored 13 times and provided five assists from his 30 league appearances for CSKA Moscow last season. Take on your mates Prove youre the best football manager by creating a league and inviting your mates here. Henrikh Mkhitaryan (Manchester United)Sky Sports Fantasy Football valuation: £10.5mEstimated points total for 2015/16: 256 Henrikh Mkhitaryan is expected to add creativity to Jose Mourinhos midfield Henrikh Mkhitaryan will be expected to provide plenty of chances for Uniteds strikers, having racked up an impressive 15 assists for Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga last season. He also picked up 11 goals from midfield, statistics that compare favourably with the likes of Yaya Toure, Philippe Coutinho and Christian Eriksen in the same price range.Michy Batshuayi (Chelsea)Sky Sports Fantasy Football valuation: £11.5mEstimated points total for 2015/16: 203 Michy Batshuayi celebrates his solitary goal at Euro 2016 Chelsea snapped up rising star Batshuayi from Marseille. The highly-rated 22-year-old can be bought by Sky Sports Fantasy Football suitors for an upper-range fee of £11.5m, which makes him marginally more expensive than Manchester United wonderkid Marcus Rashford and cheaper than Olivier Giroud. Batshuayi claimed 17 goals and nine assists in his breakthrough Ligue 1 season, while he also enhanced his credentials with a goal for Belgium at Euro 2016.Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Manchester United)Sky Sports Fantasy Football valuation: £12.2mEstimated points total for 2015/16: 411 Zlatan Ibrahimovic retired from international football at Euro 2016 After what seemed like endless speculation, Ibrahimovic finally completed his switch to Old Trafford, bringing with him a domestic record United will be keen for him replicate. The 34-year-old goes into the Sky Sports Fantasy Football roster as a premier purchase, sitting fourth at £12.2m behind Sergio Aguero, Harry Kane and Alexis Sanchez despite comfortably being involved in more goals (51) than any Premier League player last season with 38 goals and 13 assists.Lacking an out-and-out goalscorer was one of the major criticisms levelled at United under Louis van Gaal but Ibrahimovic looks guaranteed to provide that much-needed cutting edge, having claimed bags of goals everywhere he has played.

MINNEAPOLIS -- After a 13-inning victory the night before, the long-shot Cleveland Indians held out hope that they could still sneak into the playoffs. They were dealt a serious setback Friday night. Trevor Plouffe singled in Danny Santana in the 10th inning to give the Minnesota Twins a 5-4, comeback victory over Cleveland, further damaging the Indians already slim playoff hopes. "It sucks. You got a lead and you end up losing," said starting pitcher Trevor Bauer, who struck out six in six innings. "We dug ourselves a hole and were in a tough position. Everything is magnified right now. All these losses, they stink." Santana led off the ninth with a single off Kyle Crockett (4-1) and advanced to third on Brian Doziers single to right-centre. Joe Mauer was intentionally walked to load the bases, and Crockett struck out rookie slugger Kennys Vargas, who homered in the game. Josh Tomlin entered the game to face Plouffe, who dropped a two-strike pitch just in front of lunging centre-fielder Michael Bourn. "Its not exactly where we want to be, wed rather be on their side. But were just trying to continue to play good baseball, not giving up," Plouffe said. "We know were out of it, but this is the time for a lot of guys to show they can play in a situation like this, against these good teams late in the season, and I think we did a pretty good job." With Minnesota trailing 4-3 in the ninth, Kurt Suzuki hit a one-out double off closer Cody Allen and was replaced by pinch-runner Eduardo Nunez. Nunez moved to third on Oswaldo Arcias single and scored to tie it when Aaron Hicks grounded into a fielders choice. It was a tough play, but shortstop Jose Ramirez had an outside shot of turning a double play. He ranged over and stabbed his glove at Hicks grounder, but couldnt reel it in and settled for the force out at second. "He did what he could with it," Allen said. "It was a well-struck ball and he llaid out for it.dddddddddddd It was unfortunate the way everything turned out, but it was still a good play." Jared Burton (3-5) stranded Michael Brantley at second base to end the top of the 10th. Brantley homered and Lonnie Chisenhall had two hits and an RBI for Cleveland, which entered the night four games out of the final AL wild-card spot. Cleveland rallied to beat Houston 2-1 on Thursday night. Oswaldo Arcia homered for Minnesota in the third off Bauer. It was Arcias fourth homer this season off Bauer. Josh Tomlin was the eighth reliever by Cleveland, which set an American League record during the game by going to the bullpen 547 times this season. Detroit and Kansas City sit atop the AL Central and play a three-game series this weekend. Cleveland needs one of those teams to sweep the other, then some help from Oakland and Seattle if they want any chance at sneaking into the playoffs. "Nobodys going to quit," Francona said. TRAINERS ROOM TWINS: All-Star closer Glen Perkins has been shut down for the season with a strain and nerve irritation in his left forearm. Twins GM Terry Ryan said Perkins should be ready in plenty of time for spring training after an off-season strengthening and maintenance program. Ryan said SS Eduardo Escobar should return from a jammed shoulder in the next couple of days. INDIANS: 2B Jason Kipnis missed the game with a sore right hamstring.
