Dugout Discussion – Spurs vs Swansea

Saturday’s action concludes at Wembley Stadium as Tottenham Hotspur entertain Swansea City in the 5.30pm kick-off.

All eyes are on Harry Kane after he scored twice in each of his last two appearances for the north London outfit over the last few days.

Over 20% of FPL managers have handed him the armband this week – second, once again, to Romelu Lukaku’s 30% backers.

Kane was handed the armband by 17 of the top 100 heading into Gameweek 5, while team-mates Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli were selected by nine and seven of that elite group respectively.

All three start along with Heung-Min Son but Mauricio Pochettino sorely disappoints the 345,000+ who drafted in Ben Davies by benching the Welshman against his former side.

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

    Mkhi and Firmino to Gross and Aguero(C) -4? Top heavy with Kane Aguero Morata Salah Eriksen with 2x5.5m mids?

        I blame Kane for this

      If anyone's feeling a bit frustrated, don't worry. There's always someone worse off.
      Captained Kane weeks 1, 2 and 3. Sold him week 4. Bought him back for a hit and captained him this week. Have more points on my bench this week than my 8 players today. Will be over 3.5 million tonight.

          That's a textbook example of how not to play the game

        While the game's about to finish....

        FPL now has over five million players!

        1. Pompel
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          Top 10k seems very far off now...

        Would you do Eriksen Tammy to Jesus Gross for free?

          Don't get rid of Eriksen. He is their best player

          1. TheSteel

            • 11 Years
            6 years, 7 months ago

            Its him or Salah

        2. MTPockets
            6 years, 7 months ago

            Probably

          People blaming the ref for Kane blank.
          What a joke.

          1. Hanked
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 7 months ago

            It was one of several reasons but if the ref makes the correct decision Kane gets 1 or more penalties so it's very relevant. Not sure what point you are making mate?

          All score checks will result in a two week ban.

          Any chance Kane will get the assist after review?

            Well if you make no ugh predictions you will get one correct eventually. .

        7. Numb
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          Lukaku is by far the most captained anyway

          1. itwaswritten
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 7 months ago

            He will blank too anyway

        8. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          Kane or Lukaku to Aguero?

          It's a question a lot will be asking...

          Playing well after UCL is essential for a 12.5m striker.

        9. Sergeant Slaughter
          • 12 Years

          Dean has had a stinker

        10. FER FUSCH AKE
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          get alli they said
          he is super nailed on without the UCL fixtures they said
          captain Kane they said
          play Elliot over Forster / foster they said
          bench soton def they said
          no city asset is nailed they said

            Lesson for all of us.

            That's why you should not listen to 'them'. If 'they' were so good they would win. Yet the people that follow the crowd don't win.

            1. FER FUSCH AKE
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 7 months ago

              never again

            hahahaha... 🙂

            so what did you learn from this?

            1. FER FUSCH AKE
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 7 months ago

              follow your own instincts.

              1. Hanked
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years
                6 years, 7 months ago

                Instincts? You're not a navy seal

          4. Hanked
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 7 months ago

            Except for benching Southampton defenders and perhaps the City comment the rest of that advice is good. Being result orientated won't help you mate

        11. Mark-O
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          Bavies+Eriksen/Alli+Kane

          So another kane blank

          Wtf to do now????

          1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 7 months ago

            Selling for Aguero. Alli will 'cover'

          2. itwaswritten
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 7 months ago

            You know what to do...

            Wait

            6 years, 7 months ago

            One match I dint have him and he scored brace.
            Best captain Kane in good away games from now on

          5. MTPockets
              6 years, 7 months ago

              12.5m is too much given option to captain MCI next week, Lukaku following one.

            • Hanked
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              6 years, 7 months ago

              Nothing. He's by far the most lethal attacking player in the prem. He's hit the woodwork 3 times, his performances vary between good and great.

          6. L S P
            • 8 Years

            Sp*rs blank + Davies benched = GLORIOUS DAY
