WELCOME to the big time!
Which players from the newly promoted sides will catch the eye in DREAM TEAM this season?
Last season, two of the three teams that came up from the Championship, Bournemouth and Watford, managed to survive in the Premier League with precious few of the problems that most sides in their position seem to encounter.
And there were some sensational performances by their players too, with the likes of the Hornets’ Odion Ighalo bagging 187 Dream Team points and Burnley keeper Tom Heaton getting a well-deserved call-up to the England side.
The question now, though, is which of the players coming up this season, from Burnley, Middlesbrough and Hull, will be worth a punt in Dream Team 2016/17.
Here’s our tips…
BURNLEY
Price: £3million
A £9m purchase from Brentford, Gray delivered 25 goals in the Championship last season and silenced all those doubters who thought no player could fill the hole left by Danny Ings’ departure. Expect big things in the Premier League this year.

Price: £2m
As he prepares for his top flight debut, it’s worth considering just how prolific the 26-year-old striker has been to date. From August 2012 to the present day, Rhodes has plundered 91 goals in 179 league games and that, for the record, is more than any other player in the top four tiers of English football.
HULL
Price: £3m
We would have gone for exciting full-back Moses Odubajo but he’s out for six months with a knee ligament injury sustained in a pre-season friendly so Abel Hernandez gets the nod. The striker has been linked with a move back to Italy this summer but the Tigers are determined to keep hold of last season’s club Player of the Year.
