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.

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

      Not lucky. If you're capping a rotation risk, vc-ingsomeone who is nailed is logical.

      (I capped Jesus and vc Sterling)

      1. Johqvist
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        So you captained two rotation risks?

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

          Yep

          Never said I made a logical decision

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

        so u are illogical?

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

          At no point did I say I'd made a logical decision

    5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

      Probably not as many as you think

      Lots would have VC lukaku or another city player

  2. ralfb

    6 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone bringing in for Davies for 7.2 max worth a hit?

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

      So basically anyone 😛 Otamendi popular here. Not sure about for a bit but who knows

      1. ralfb
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Have him already

    2. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané

      I've had trippier since day 1 and I think everyone over looks him due to Davies.

      He's very consistent even with attacking returns and Spurs have some great fixtures coming up.

      1. ralfb
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks will check fixtures

  3. Fred54

    6 years, 6 months ago

    Never mind Liverpool attackers, what about attackers against Liverpool? Especially away from home.

    Checks ticker whu....Carroll hat trick?

    1. Son is Rising
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      He'll probably get sent off for jumping again.

  4. Tim Canterbury
    • 12 Years

    Kane highest scoring player in the game

    1. Sánchez
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Was always going to happen eventually

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

        There's a reason he's the most expensive!

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

          How about Alonso as the most expensive defender 😉

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

            Haha "but he's basically a midfielder" 😉

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

              A bad ‘midfielder’ who gets subbed off quite a lot recently

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

                Oh yeah I wouldn't touch him with a bargepole

    1. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      It's not bad is it. If only I had kept Ramsey it would've been my best too.

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

        Amazing really.

  9. Wally banter
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Even 50 is not a respectable score now... And even worrying is having jones, bavies and some 4.0 who never plays plus fernandez to arsenal next week,and having struck with sterling and jesus... Omg.. This season is truly devastating..

    1. AnfieldLad
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      exact same but naughton not fern lool. Your plan?

      1. Wally banter
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Cannot go hit storm... No idea... May play safe with ward and omg whom should i replace bavies with :/

  10. KUN+10
    • 9 Years

    For the third City player

  12. MikeDuff
    • 7 Years

    80,000 attendance

    No atmosphere

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      top teams at home to dross can struggle to create atmosphere

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Klopp to Koeman would be!

      1. Red Dagger ✪
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years

    2. Chandler Bing
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

  16. ForEvra Young
    • 9 Years

    Best 4.5 defender?

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years

  19. banskt
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Can we expect a hattie from Kane? Best assisted by Eriksen. 🙂

  20. Chucky
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Salah 1 Bap 😀

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

      Hooray! He's my differential in ML - we all own Kane

  21. Team Cruel

    Why didn't anyone show me that away goals conceded table BEFORE this GW? 🙁

  22. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 8 Years

    Kane Salah saving my GW

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Sturridge saving mine

  23. Sailboats
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Alonso and Kolasinac owners need to wake up and sell them ASAP. "Alonso will outscore a 7m mid"

    I lol'd hard irl

    1. 42towels
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I can see the Alonso thing happening.

      But kolasinac? Arsenal don't keep clean sheets.

    2. Sánchez
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I have both. I still feel they'll come good. Everybody told me not getting Lukaku was too risky with his ownership. Haven't had him yet and having a pretty good season so far

  24. Sánchez
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Why didn't Liverpool put a defender on for Lovren?

    1. Sailboats
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      They can't defend anyway, so might as well attack.

    2. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Because Lovren isn’t a defender 😆

    3. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Because losing 4-1 or worse is better than drawing away from home...

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

      Klopp hasn't much of a clue.

  25. Syd.
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Harry Winks has had a surperb game in midfield

    1. n-doggg
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Promising for Russia

  26. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Looks like I'll end up with 48 points, Sterling captain Jesus vc. Red or green arrow 750k OR

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

      Small red probably after subs.

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

    Newcastle fans feeling happy that they are above Liverpool now

  28. makaveli123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years

    Impressive how fast Sanchez has settled in that Spurs defence.

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

    Get Bavies on FFS

    1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 6 Years

      Nooooo
