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

  3. Hardly Athletic

    2FT and 0.1ITB. Team currently is:

    Foster - Elliot
    Alonso - Davies - Zanka - Britos - Mbemba
    Eriksen - Silva - Sterling - Carroll - Chalobah
    Kane - Jesus - Firmino

    a. Eriksen > Salah
    b. Davies > Monreal
    c. Make both transfers
    d. Something else

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

      C
      But I would wait for midweek games

  4. BucketHead
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Sorry if already asked but who should go first between Jones and Ben davies???

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

      Depends on Jones news...

      But bavies will always be rotation risk so I'm losing him first

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

        That

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Always a fun read 🙂

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

        Agreed

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

    Exact cash for Eriksen to Alli and Chalobah to Zaha.

    Good trades?

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

      Eriksen - Pool mid

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

        Already got Salah and still got Firmino.

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

      That is so side ways it is like one of those sideways crab

      1. Robe Wan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        All crabs?

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

        Not really. Enables long term crock Chalobah to Zaha who's playing striker.

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

          Not sure Zaha is the answer - why not just do Chalobah to RLC or Carroll like everyone else ?

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

            Zaha is going to be the main man without a doubt. Don't forget he was in everyone's teams at the start. Good run of fixtures and looking better each game.

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

              Go for it then

    3. 2hotty
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      i smell crab paste

  7. King Kohli
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Who would you get in for this week, Mee or Duffy?

    Will probably get the other guy in next GW

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

      Mee

  8. sodom85
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    davies + brady > duffy +richarlison
    Is a good move?

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

      Yes

  9. Atwood
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Damn, thought 62 would be enough for a green arrow

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

      Should be.

    2. CFC96
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      surely it is, tables must not have updated

  10. I Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Elliot
    Jones, Maguire, Cedric
    Eriksen, Salah, Sterling, Brady
    Kane, Jesus, Vardy

    Foster; Lascelles, Naughton, Chalobah.

    2 FT 0.2 ITB

    I have exact money for Jones/Maguire (depending on Jones' injury) + Brady -> Mee + Richarlison. Looks a no brainer doesn't it? Happy to keep Sterling and Jesus for now.

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

      Sideways ? Maybe just down grade Brady to a 4.5 and rotate your 4.5 mids and defenders

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

    Is Hunemeier 1st choice backup for Duffy & Dunk?

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

      I don't think so, wasn't on the bench last time but Goldson was

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Im sure it doesn't matter much, but just don't know who to go for at 3.9!

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

    Defence and captaincies are handicapping my gameweeks, fixing both asap.

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

        Ouch, almost as bad for me with Kun being my only captained haul this season. Said I wouldn't overthink it and switch about my armband before the season began but reconsidering it things just ain't working, logical choice not scoring more etc. Perhaps a bit of overthinking or following the always captain Kane rule except vs any big team that isn't us or Arsenal will be my new approach

        1. CFC96
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          I'm with you on that, the armband is back on kane from gw11 till Lord knows when, if Jones is injured I may even be crazy enough to cap next week as he seems to go big or come very close in every away game

  13. Shuvo127
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    I have silva and sterling already. Want to sell kaku...feel like going for kun..cause morata was not playing well this gw. What should i do?

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

      Wait for midweek matches.

    2. You've got red on you.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Keep Kak

      1. Shuvo127
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I am getting very confused about this. Actually having a miserable start of the season.
        Gea Elliot
        Davies, Luiz, cresswell, jagielka, rangel
        Coutinho, sterling, silva ritchi, rlc
        Kane lukaku diouff
        This is my team, which changes should i go for?? Have .3 in the bank and 1ft.

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

          Haha I remember. Probably need a Cresswell replacement this week..

  15. puhd

    Pope Elliot
    Azpilicueta Davies Stones Ward Wimmer
    Hazard Eriksen Sterling RLC Carroll
    Kane Jesus DCL

    2FT 0.0ITB
    Who to lose from this lot?
    Obviously Liverpool attacking coverage and Richarlison are main targets.
    Cheers

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

      Yup. Try to get in Salah or Coutinho

  18. CelticBhoy1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Mkhi > Salah for a -4?

    (Already got Lukaku and Jones but no Lpool)

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

      What was the first transfer?

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

        Salah > Mkhi

        1. CelticBhoy1

  19. borat
    • 8 Years

    A small question. If I am already on -4 having taken a hit, if I wc now does my hit get removed when gw starts

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years

          I recon your FT won't be rolled over

  20. You've got red on you.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Would you downgrade Alonso and Davies ---> Daniels and 4.5 def/mid to upgrade Choupo ---> Salah?

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

      don't think so

  21. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 8 Years

    51, a lot of 50/50s that went against me. Feel like I got off lucky after a string of greens. Here's to GW10 🙂

  22. HD7

    Next week Captain? Jesus ?

    Elliot
    Walker Jones Simpson Kola
    Sterling Atsu Eriksen
    Kane Kaku Jesus

    Subs: Fabianski, Carroll, Chalobah, Mbemba

  23. The Man Pastore

    What's your toughts on this WC team :

    Fabianski / Nordfeldt
    Otamendi / Azpi / Dunk / Mee / Manquillo
    Salah / Sane / Coutinho / Richarlison / Romeu
    Kane / Morata / Abraham

    Any Arsenal attackers worth investing in? They could knock Swansea for 6...

    1. Rash
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Ozil was best on pitch by a mile today

      1. Royal5

        6 years, 6 months ago

        Every 10th game he's pretty good.

    53 points . Out of top 800

    Davies, sterling, jesus owner.
    Eriksen blank. Kolasinac 1 pointer. David luiz.

    Over all this, Manchester United lost.

    Ending my life

  26. Maddi Son
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Lukaku & Silva > Aguero & Salah for a -4 hit?

    Or bring in just Salah for free and then Aguero next week?

    1. Cornholi0
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      The latter

  27. Fuchs Mane Kante
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Can clearly see Harry holding his quad and then Podge slapping him on the glute.

  28. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Is the average of top 10k at fpldiscovery a sample average or the real average of top 10k?

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

      How would they make a sample top 10k average without the top 10k?

  29. Sarri-ball
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    On a wildcard can see city carrying on rotation esp round Xmas.

    Is de bruyne worth 10.0? I think he is almost free from rotation.

    Feel jesus/aguero just be frustrating week to week

  30. Gazpilicueta
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    A) Richarlison and Abraham
