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.

      Nah Rose will be first choice.. he offers more pace and width. Better for Pochs system

    Kane doing his best Kun impression. Kun usually does it after scoring though...

    rose and aurier making Davies and Trippier look like R. Carlos y D. Alves in there prime

      Rose is not 100% still. Aurier is a raw talent who needs games and coaching.

        so why not start just one of them instead of both???

    Think y'all are on delayed streams. Kane is fine. Maybe being a tad careful, but that's it.

  8. Alex_thekid

    Are we watching a different game? Kane is back to normal, isn't he?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Yes, just a lot of Kane non owners who are obviously not watching the game.

    He's moving well again.

    I think this is wat all highly expectant games always come down to.. Just effin frustrating..

  12. diesel001

    Eriksen corner?

  13. Ady87

    I know this is typically when people start to sweat but the beauty of putting the armband on Kane or Aguero is there ability to deliver a 5 minute brace. Bags of time.

      Hard to score if he gets subbed though.

      1. tiger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Hard to score if he gets abducted by aliens too, but that hasn't happened yet either.

        • 12 Years

    2. Monkey Hanger
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Or Lloris or Toby. That is almost half a team.
