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

      Same Dillema here, but my mind is firmly on Brady

      1. walkman666
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        Ah, ok. Another thought. Cheaper, but I like Ritchie's consistency and penalties.

    Currently half of South America are trying to transfer Sergio Aguero into their fantasy teams.

  4. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Thinking Lukaku to Aguero and captain week 6, then Aguero to Lukaku week 7 and captain and then play wildcard in International break.

    1. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      It's not a bad idea.

    2. Arn De Gothia
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      do it

    3. Big P
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      That kind of planning is dangerous, other issues arise

    4. Emmicson
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Hold tilll tomorrow Aguero wont rise till tomorrow at the earliest

    5. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Like it. Pure fantasy rotation a la baseball pitchers.

      • 10 Years

      I'm starting to think that captaining top players at home to the smaller sides is a bad idea. They just park the bus and stifle them. At least away from home there's usually more space to exploit. Tempted to captain Kane away to West Ham over Aguero next week tbh.

  5. F4L
    • 9 Years

    Bottomed. Kane and Alli ➡ jesus and Kun?

    1. Arn De Gothia
      • 13 Years

      sounds a bit rough

    2. Emmicson
      • 11 Years

      Dont do both, do one either side..

  6. Bruno Bruno!!

  9. FCSB
    • 8 Years

    Should I transfer Suttner out before his price drop... I'd have6.4 to spend...

    Current defence is Bertrand Yoshida Tripper Gamez

    Suttner >>(6.4m budget)

  11. Big P
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Best combination here guys until January?

    A) Brady and King
    B) Sterling and Joselu

    I know he won't stra every match, but I'm tempted by Sterling, he looked awesome today and Pep loves him.

    1. Blanka
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      I like Sterling. Tempted to ship Micky for him.

  12. TheTwelfthMan

    Sanchez (C) next week, who's with me?

    1. FPL Virgin

      Week after too.
      Brighton at home..
      Bring on the points.. 😛

  13. F4L

    563k rank. *sigh

    Repost

    WC has to be played imo. Team looks good on paper but when the points roll in I always end up with a red arrow, and I can't deal with it anymore. I've taken -12 points worth of hits in the last 2 gws and I'm missing some big key players; for example, Salah. I know I'm better than a 2.2m rank and it's just not good enough..

    Here's the team:

    Foster / Myhill
    Valencia Stephens Daniels / Suttner Hunemeier
    Eriksen Alli Ramsey Ritchie / Carroll
    Kane Lukaku Abraham

    My TV is also so low that I'm going sub 100m TV. Another 2 drops tonight if I don't WC

    Thoughts?

    1. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      WC and get some Man City players, lose Stephens Daniels Alli Ramsey Abraham to start with.

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 7 Years

        Cheers for the advice

  15. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Got 69 from my draft team with Aguero Mendy Walker from City and few other good players but only 33 with main fantasy team...

  16. Ungaio
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Firmino-->Rooney
    or
    Kane-->Aguero

    ?

    1. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Wait, why get Rooney?

    2. Blanka
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Kane to Ageuro is a big no no.

  17. Bubz
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Up to 60k with Yoshida's points off the bench to come. Not too shabby.

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Nice!

    2. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Nice, I went down from 27k to 52 with Kane(C) and only 33 points.

    3. mir

      What's your total points so I can see just how far I am behind.

  18. Jack Burton

    Hovering around the million mark 35 points behind in my ml think i can wait 2 more gameweeks too wc just need a bit if luck to kickstart my season team looks ok just not happening its only early boys and girls

    1. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah WC in the next int. break is my plan too, think Hazard and a few others will show a bit of form before the fixtures shift a bit for United and others

      1. Jack Burton
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years

        Tempting though good luck hope it pays off mate

    Fulham fan.

    Thoughts on being beaten by the mighty Burton?

    1. F4L
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      🙁 We were awful today, no sugar coating it.

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

        A little toothless in attack. We were happy to absorb the pressure... Last season you were the best club to come to the Pirelli.

        1. F4L
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          yeah. We're lacking the creative influence of Cairney big time in the midfield. Also not having an out and out striker isn't helping. Great win for you lot, but I must say the penalty seemed a dodgy decision as well

  20. Everyday im Schneiderlin
    • 9 Years

    lukaku to aguero?
    gives me the funds to do loftus cheek to atsu as a bonus?

    1. MTPockets

        Why not see how Lukaku does first.

      Very annoyed with myself for playing Dunk over Brady. Hoping for a Jones or Mkhi no show tomorrow.

      1. TheTwelfthMan
        • 6 Years

        Jones or Mkhi could easily outscore 6.

                He was on the bench, even if he does it can't be very bad.
