Monitor – Adebayor and Eriksen

3,252 Comments
Share

As Tottenham’s momentum under Tim Sherwood continues to build, two of their first-team have emerged as leading contenders for our Fantasy attention. Since the departure of Andre Villas-Boas, Emmanuel Adebayor has played a part in six (three goals and three assists) of Spurs’ 11 goals over five matches, whilst Christian Eriksen has chipped in with three goals and an assist.

With 36 points apiece in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game, many wildcard drafts currently include one of the duo in light of Sherwood’s penchant for attacking football. Both are still very favourably priced, with Adebayor slightly more expensive at 7.8 to 7.3 and, as interest intensifies, we cast an eye over the pair’s recent displays and also compare them to other options in their respective classifications.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

        Big disappointment. Unless its due to holidays or illness they usually podcast every week. So thousands of members look forward to this on a Thursday night. With Jonty asking for questions too my expectations were raised.

        No explanation on the site either (unless I've missed it). Not good enough IMO.

            Don't think he's first choice. When Reid returns it should be:

            O'Brien/ Demel - R.Johnson/Tomkins- Reid -Rat

            Correct?

        Nah, but I figure that, like me, many will save 2 FT for a punt before WC since we´ll have team news before deadline.
