Dugout Discussion – Spurs vs Crystal Palace

A busy Sunday treats us to four fixtures before the final international break of 2017 is upon us.

Up first, we make our way to Wembley as Spurs entertain Crystal Palace in the 12pm kick-off.

With four of the top five squaring up later in the day, all eyes are on Harry Kane against the Eagles.

The Tottenham striker is the number one captain choice for Gameweek 11, selected by 27.6% of Fantasy Premier League managers after bagging a brace in four of his last six league outings.

Dele Alli owners are left frustrated, though, as he misses out through a hamstring injury, while at the back, Ben Davies drops to the bench as Danny Rose is handed a first league start of the season.

Still sitting in 20% of FPL sides, Davies looks set for an exodus over the break – he’s failed to start Tottenham’s last four home league encounters at Wembley.

For the visitors, we get another chance to scout Wilfried Zaha as Roy Hodgson’s side prepare for a fine run of fixtures.

The Ivorian international has scored in two of three appearances since being handed a central role up front upon his return from injury.

Over the next six Gameweeks, Palace have four favourable home matches (EVE STO BOU WAT) allied with trips to Brighton and West Brom.

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

    What Spurs defender is actually nailed?

    1. Deulofail
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Gazzaniga

    2. dvdguy
      • 8 Years

      Toby/Vertongen

    3. Viper

      Verthongen

    4. Business Cat

      Vertonghen. Alderweireld and Lloris when not injured

  12. Kaneyonero
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Cmon (K)ane

  13. Viper
    • 14 Years

    Any chance Trippier comes on for Rose instead of Davies or am I clutching at straws? 🙂

    Surely Aurier is fitter atm so he gets 90

    1. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Let’s hope!

  14. Digital-Real

    Dier central defence confirms Palace goal

  15. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Scott Dann forgot to bring in Kane.

  16. HamezMace
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Mee first sub.

    Jesus, Sane, Jones, Richarlison, Morata....any reason to hope any of these players don't start?

    1. PDM TOP 1,000 any Season Le…
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      First two possibles

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        I guess with Pep there is always that ?

    2. Deulofail
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Yes

      You have Mee first sub.

    3. We Will Klopp you
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Morata, think he gets 2 points or even 1

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Well I have De Gea and Jones double up, so it wouldn't be the worst thing

    4. evilfish
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Yes the reason being that you have 6 points as 1st sub.

      1. Deulofail
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        It's been done

        And it's 8 points

        D'oh!

        1. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Painful stuff.

          Went VVD over Mee as well.

          Also Elliot on the bench, never cheered a Bournemouth goal so much before!

        2. evilfish
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Oh I'm sorry, please forgive for having the same idea as you but a few seconds slower, jeez!

          1. Deulofail
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            Not forgiven, jeez!

      2. evilfish

    I hate Murphy and his stupid laws

      It’s been 8 minutes

    David Luiz set to be shockingly dropped by Antonio Conte for Man United. (From one of Chelseas forum here)

    1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon

      They said it on the Sky Sunday Supplement too.......

    2. Deulofail
      • 8 Years

      His lovely hair should cushion the fall.

    3. El-Kloppico
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      David Luiz will drop Conte??
      you're probably right, though.

      1. Deulofail
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Sorry your English gone wrong

    4. Hazz

      Christensen is super solid. Glad we have that option.

    5. Chirsbom
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Lucky I benched him then. Already have another Bavis no show to look forward to so yeah, actually a smart move on my part..

  20. Jafooli

    Good afternoon Salah owners 😀

    1. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Oh hai!

  21. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Davies>Jones my next move then. Double up with Bailly. Don’t want to take a loss on him.

  22. V-2 Schneiderlin
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    too much to hope for Kane hattrick, all Eriksen assists - but Eriksen limps off with minor hamstring injury in the 85th minute ? (Ireland match pending...)

    1. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      If anything, I’d be surprised if this isn’t spot on

  23. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Zaha on WC worth a shout?

    1. El-Kloppico
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      surely

  24. Digital-Real
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    This place seems rather calm considering 10 mins has been played and no Kane goal 😉

    1. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Alli injury and Bavies benching has distracted them 😉

  25. Eton Rifles
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Big psychological come down from Real Madrid this for the Spuds.

    workmanlike, just get the three points 1-0 performance (Son g Rose a)

  26. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Why is Kane shooting from 50 meters?!

    1. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      He needs to increase his BPS

    2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Gotta buy a ticket

    3. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      For the challenge...it'd be like shooting fish in a barrel otherwise 😉

  27. OPTA FPL
    • 12 Years

    Kane (C) fail. never got his haul when I had him, sold him and he went crazy

    5. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Can you not get Jones? (I guess you have made another transfer already..?)

      1. Swagat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Planning to do Jesus>Lukaku and Davies to Someone , Thinking about Moreno also

    6. Rik Waller
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      What's the other transfer you're thinking, that's taking money out of that position? Because Jones is a player you'll really wanna have
