Dugout Discussion – Man United vs Spurs

The Gameweek begins at Old Trafford and a big clash between Manchester United and Spurs which, in Fantasy terms, has been turned on its head by Harry Kane’s injury.

The striker has been sold by more than 750,000 managers ahead of today’s deadline following the revelation of his absence from this match. Son Heung-min is trusted with leading the Spurs attack in his absence against a Man Utd defence which are yet to concede in a home match.

Jose Mourinho’s tactics will be pivotal to today’s outcome and the potential for Fantasy returns. United have set up to mirror Spurs three-man defence with Eric Bailly returning alongside Phil Jones and Chris Smalling. It remains to be seen if this signals the intention to attack the visitors, promoting the prospects of both Romelu Lukaku and the returning Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

Lukaku goes into this match on the back of successive blanks with his remaining 52.4% ownership desperate for him to produce today with a Gameweek 11 trip to Chelsea up next. The Belgian has been sold by over 314,000 managers ahead of today’s deadline.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    I agree with Pep that the Mitre ball used in the EFL is crap. Expecting City to be rampant with the proper Nike Ordem V football.

    Daniels will get a double digit haul today and become essential over the next 5 game weeks.

  17. Guy Demel

    Lukaku with a deft Alexis style chip into the box there. Owners should be happy with how that panned out for him last week against Everton.

    Strong signs for Lukaku.

  18. Klopptomist Scott Jelly

    Davies and Eriksen both on 3 bps as it stands 😉

    1. John t penguin
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Davies has had three touches

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

        I'm just saying what the FPL website is showing, don't shoot the messenger 😛

  19. Differentiator
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Aurier storming shot almost went in

  20. The Royal Robin
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    I'm getting absolutely murked by Bavies. I play him every week he doesn't feature and then bench him today. WTF.

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

      Don't ever bench him then, autosubs mean that if he doesn't play they'll come in

      1. The Royal Robin
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Is he even worth owning though?

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

          Can't answer that for you! When he plays he tends to score well - I'll probably be getting rid because it's frustrating (and also have Sterling and Jesus atm)

    2. DantheManinaPan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Why bench him?

      Even if you don't expect him to start he's unlikely to come off the bench so you can just use an autosub...!

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

    This ain't ending 0-0 is it

    1. Guy Demel
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Don’t underestimate Jose’s desire and determination.

    2. Bald Eagle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      No way, playing Davies and Jones. Both will score in my opinion.

    3. Ghost Gooner
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Only a moment of brilliance or a blunder will do it. Very tactical atm

    4. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Nope

  22. VIRATKOHLI18

  25. Patch
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    I asked a similar Q last time and then he scored shortly after...

    How is Alli doing? Any resemblance of a professional footballer today?

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

        As long as he channels that rage for a goal, that will do me today

  26. The Royal Robin
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Morata (C) just feels right today.

    1. Differentiator
      • 8 Years

    2. Siggy in the Middle
      • 8 Years

      I have him captain and my captaincy choices are usually shite so sorry in advance if he blanks.

    Man Utd are so bad in real life

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

      They look better than Spurs today.

  28. Alan The Llama
    • 14 Years

    Game finally updated properly.

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

    Lukaku has never won against Spurs.

  30. Catastrophe
    • 13 Years

    Ready to eat my words but can't get my head around the number of people who have transferred and captained Aguero. Almost everyone in my ML. Praying for a benching!

    1. moz_1983
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Aguero owner, didn't captain him. Too many midweek mins so i suspect a benching.
