Dugout Discussion – Leicester City vs Tottenham Hotspur

Double Gameweek 37 finally comes to an end this evening as Leicester City and Tottenham Hotspur go head-to-head at the King Power Stadium at 7.45pm.

After grabbing his side’s second in Sunday’s win over Man United, Harry Kane is now just two goals behind Romelu Lukaku in the race for the Golden Boot.

Having returned eight goals and three assists in his last seven starts, the Spurs striker has been handed the armband by 5.5% of FPL managers – more than any player in tonight’s encounter.

For Christian Eriksen’s 18% FPL owners, the Double Gameweek serves up one final twist – the Dane drops to the bench tonight after earning eight points against United last weekend.

Elsewhere for the visitors, Dele Alli starts as he looks to arrest a run of one goal in his previous four – the midfielder was transferred out by 56,000 FPL managers ahead of Tottenham’s pair of fixtures.

The hosts’ Jamie Vardy is the eighth most popular armband pick (2.4%) of Double Gameweek 37 on the back of seven goals and five assists in 11 appearances since Craig Shakespeare took the helm.

Meanwhile, Foxes wide man Marc Albrighton has flourished as a budget asset across that period, producing two goals and five assists in 10 outings under the new man in charge.

    Disappointing to see Alli and Son in the points, more or less rules out a green arrow in this one despite Kane/Eriksen/Vert

      Son not highly owned. Still hope for a Vert CS 🙂

    Christ people on here are unbelievably greedy. Alli could score nine goals and they'd still be some dude saying 'Come on Dele, one more'

    1. TheTinman
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Settle for mediocrity then 🙂

      Yep! Like the constant moaning of only getting 2 baps instead of 3...I've always been happy with 2 😉

    That awkward feeling when 140+ points feels low...

    Even with this Eriksen no show, on for 180 pts

    Only if I had Alexis as captain

    1. acidicleo
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      180 without Alexis (C) is superb..whats your GW rank..

      1. AndyCook
          7 years, 6 days ago

          I'm on for 180, had 164 last night and that was 4,500 so I'd guess 2,500 or so

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        He has been amazing, but there are many more deserving.

        1. Here's Tom with the We…
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 6 days ago

          Zlatan Valencia Herrera in that order. Imo

      Luiz --> Clyne
      Gabb --> Vokes
      Sane --> Cout

      Worth it for a -8 punt?

      1. Musicholic
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        Na. Find some other source to get in Coutinho

          • 12 Years

    8. George Sillett
      • 8 Years

      Son is everything you want for FPL . A greedy git. Shame I don't own him.

      12 point lead in ML, 1ft, AOA available

      A) Hazard > Coutinho
      B) Hazard,JWP > Coutinho,Son/8.6 mid (-4) - use AOA
      C) Hazard, Gabriel > Coutinho, Azpi (-4)
      D) Hazard, Gabbi > Coutinho, 10.1 striker (sturridge,vardy) (-4)

    12. We Will Klopp you
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 days ago

      Final lot of ideas for use of FT, if none look enticing then I'm afraid my FT will either have to perish or be used as bench padding.
      Which looks most enticing?

      A) Mawson in for Huth, bench Yoshi
      B) Mawson in for Huth, bench Stephens
      C) Lovren in for Huth, bench Yoshi
      D) Lovren in for Huth, bench Stephens
      E) None, if so which of the three is best for bench padding? Huth, Mawson or Lovren?

      1. Here's Tom with the We…
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 6 days ago

        D from those. Can you get Clyne though?

        1. We Will Klopp you
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 6 days ago

          No, unfortunately the only way would be Cahill out, if I do Huth out max budget is 5m

          1. Here's Tom with the We…
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 6 days ago

            Get Lovren then

      Trying to cover a player haul by backing them to score 2+ goals never works. They always end up with one and a couple of assists.
