Dugout Discussion - Man City vs Spurs - Best FPL Tips, Advice, Team News, Picks, and Statistics from Fantasy Football Scout

Saturday treats us to one final fixture as Man City and Tottenham Hotspur go head-to-head at the Etihad in the 5.30pm kick-off.

Mauricio Pochettino’s men arrive on the back of six straight wins and with the schedule turning in their favour from next weekend, this evening’s match affords us the chance to get in some early scouting.

Harry Kane earned more transfers in than any player ahead of Gameweek 22 after netting six times in the last four fixtures, yet the Spurs midfield offers equally enticing options.

Christian Eriksen has served up six double-figure hauls in nine, whilst seven goals and an assist in the last five from Dele Alli has seen him match the Dane’s tally of 121 FPL points so far.

A single goal in four underlines Sergio Aguero’s recent toils up top, though with West Ham, Swansea and Bournemouth to follow, the City striker cannot be overlooked.

All eyes are on Gabriel Jesus, though the new boy only makes the bench as Pep Guardiola looks to ease him into his new surrounds after arriving from Brazilian outfit Palmeiras.

Current team

I am over 100 points behind in my league, I am prepared to take a hit
Any ideas for a differential to catch up a bit?

  Yeah I looked at that, difficult to know who is nailed atm, I'd say de Bruyne but he's pricey

Pull the trigger on transfers now even though it's FA cup week? worried Davies' (eve) price is going to go up

What would you do with this team. 2ft & 3.0itb

Foster, Valdes
Alonso, Rose, Lovren, Jones, Pieters
Sanchez, Alli, Lallana, Phillips, Stanislas
Ibra, Giroud, Defoe

Lovren, Lallana & Defoe seem to be the issues.

Thoughts & thanks.

Lovren to Brunt. Midfield is fine. Maybe Defoe out for Lukaku or Costa. Wait till tomorrow's game, see if there's anymore spanners..

Jolly Good

Leko as my 5th non playing mid is stopping me from getting brunt who I really want (as I have 3 w brom) ... what a nightmare.

2fts, no other plans.. should I switch him to another 4.2 and get brunt? Total waste of a FT

George James

What are people doing with aguero? Keeping forcthe decent fixtures or shipping and using the full nfs elsewhere to strengthen the team.

Kun + Lovren >> Kane + Walker -4

Worth it?

Depends on rest of this gw and fa cup. Will make the decision before next gw which is midweek. Ain't gonna knee jerk just cos of falling or rising prices. Be patient and keep him if I can. Keeping an eye out for Jesus's though.

D. Something else?

Appreciated

Awful week so far - just 10 points. Still got players to play including captain (Sanchez) - others are Heaton, Giroud and Pedro.

Looks like a low scoring week so far based on average but still I am ranked outside 4m this gameweek. Serves me right for jumping on several bandwagons and taking 8 point hit - so in a way 2 points. Did it few times earlier this season and I plummeted. I did check what my score would be if I didn't do any transfers and would have been 10 points too - so in a way made me feel better. Just one of those weeks. Just hope don't lose to much ground on others in my league.

So for no one scored points this week (no goals/assists/bonues/clean sheets). Hopefully goals tomorrow especially Sanchez - then some sort of respectability to this mean

Just did my 2x FT's on impulse, uh-oh. Did Allen (5th mid) & Evans (5th def) > Davies & Holgate to squeeze another 1.1m out of my bench... Now need to get thru FA cup week with no injuries.

Have 3.2m ITB & squad below, any obvious moves or hits?

Heaton
Alonso, Brunt, Jones
Haz, Firmino, Ali, Phillips
Ibra(c) Giroud, Lukaku
(Robinson, Friend, Davies, Holgate ) 3.2m ITB
