Dugout Discussion – Spurs vs Liverpool

After Arsenal swept aside Everton at Goodison Park, we turn our attentions to Wembley Stadium as Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool bring the curtain down on Gameweek 9.

All eyes are on Harry Kane, who is still seeking his first league goal at Spurs’ temporary home.

Despite that record, he is second only to Romelu Lukaku in the race for the Gameweek 9 captaincy – 18.4% of FPL managers have handed him the armband.

Given that only two of the top 10 captains have scored so far, a haul from Kane could have a major impact on the overall standings.

Elsewhere for the hosts, Ben Davies is passed fit to return but surprisingly has to settle for a spot on the bench along with Danny Rose.

Sold by over 195,000+ FPL managers last week, the Welshman has started just two of the last five Gameweeks and next faces a weekend trip to Old Trafford.

For the visitors, Mohamed Salah, Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino have the chance to play their way into our plans as the fixtures turn in Liverpool’s favour from Gameweek 10.

And James Milner – listed as a defender in FPL – could also be one to watch as an out of position option, with Jurgen Klopp naming him in midfield this afternoon.

        No way, United have a decent defence, just not yesterday, plus they're at home

      Someone please explain why Trippier is on set pieces over Eriksen

    14. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Kane is so explosive, Lukaku is so consistent, both are nailed - combine the two and you have the perfect Captain rotation pair that will rarely let you down

      1. Bubz
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Nah, Aguero and Kane

        1. red forever
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Exactly - both explosive!

        2. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Kun doesn’t score when rotated and not on the pitch

          1. Bubz
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Can't believe how many people ignore amazing fpl options for fear of rotation

            1. Hotdogs for Tea
              • 8 Years
              6 years, 6 months ago

              Morata Kane Lukaku for me. All 3 may well out score Kun. Not fear avoiding Kun just judgement, but I may get him in from time to time

      2. XabiAlonso
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Unless you keep captaining the wrong one each week 🙁

        1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Which I did every week except 1!

        2. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          You will have the odd miss, but on the whole they are a good pair.

          Would love some one to do a Captain pair comparison between the top players to see what the best, worst and average Captain’s score would be. I reckon Kane:Lukaku would be right up there

      3. mir
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Very true. Have had both from the start but not picked the right captain yet. I'll no doubt go on a run of getting right...i hope..

      4. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Apart from when you cap the wrong one

      5. Rash

        I think I'm just going to leave it on Kane now.. Wembley hoodoo put to bed

    25. Nyom Legend
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I have Sterling (C) Kane (VC). Richarlison first on the bench. Smooth? Ca 15-20p swing if sterling had come on off the bench.

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

        Wow

    26. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I'll take that, so basically average is up Kane

    28. Stoic
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Eriksen not taking corners even if he is near them.

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

      you only have yourself to blame if you doubted Kane for second.

    30. Sahil Yadav
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Hope the average points stay below 45. Got 55 points rn

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

      I’ll just sail a dead ship fpl team and put Kane(c) every week even if he faces Man City and Man Utd 🙁
