We turn to the Opta numbers next and roll out our usual post-Gameweek members’ article looking at some of the standout players across the previous round of fixtures.
Sergio Aguero, Jamie Vardy and Eden Hazard’s run of goals arrive under analysis, while we also cast an eye over Spurs and Everton’s recent displays in attack.
Meanwhile, cut-price midfielders from Brighton and Watford are finding form as both sides prepare for a run of four home matches in the next six Gameweeks.
Needs more Wanyama as he will boss the midfield
its amazing tho, the front 4 and dembele have just carved apart the notorious juventus backline time and time again
It’s great to watch.
Dembele and Eriksen especially have been exceptional
agree, eriksen's has managed to make the correct decision every time he's had possession
Liverpool are much better to watch. Sky Sports fan I take it
if you read my comment, i said when spurs "play like that", they certainly don't carve teams apart like that every week, especially away from home against the big team. Pool consistently deliver exciting football in almost every game they play
They’ve probed well but not made 5-6 clear chances that Liverpool would at their best. Classic Spurs putting the pressure on
Was the round of 16 goal crazy last season too? I do remember Man City and Monaco finished 6-6 over two legs.
Bayern : Arsenal was 10:2. And PSG: Barca was 5:6.
I'd 10-2 be an Arsenal fan
That City v Monaco firdt leg was unreal.
I don't want Higuain anywhere near the Argentine team
Lol not surprised.
Dybala - Messi - Di Maria surely?
Sigh
We’ve got Crouchy
Dembele is such an underrated player.
When him and Eriksen are on it like they are tonight, they are very hard to stop.
Hard to be ‘rated’ when constantly injured...
Makes such a massive difference when he is fully fit.
For what he offers to the team, he deserves far more plaudits
He hasn't gotten plaudits because he's been poor this season. Only recently has he started to show some form.
That’s why I said ‘when fully fit’.
It’s been clear for all to see this is pretty much the first spell of games where he has looked fully fit
Dembele is exactly what United need for pogba
I'd love him but Matic does a good job too. The problem is Pogba tbh.
Nah. Utd need a LB and to get Mourinho to let the horses loose:
De Gea
Valencia Bailly Jones ?????
Matic Herrera
Martial Pogba Sanchez
Lukaku
Realistically we need a centre back aswell as we always have injuries there
Don't think LB is much of a priority as oppose to other positions atm ... Like CB and CM.
Pogba in number 10, Dembele and Matic in midfield.
We’d batter teams
Milinkovic Savic would be lovely
I am surprised at how good he is playing. Completely bossing the midfield. In saying that I’ve seen him play absolutely terrible also. Nice to see him show up in a big game.
it's gradullay getting to a point where so many say he's underrated that he becomes overrated
happened with carrick
You can’t compare the two.
A fully fit Dembele is almost unstoppable
im comparing the idea not the players
Happened with Kante for a while too (though Kante is a too class player).
maybe they will both cancel one another out, and he will just be rated

i wish 🙁
I'm concentrating on this now I'm out of the cup haha
Fabianski
Jones Alonso Christensen
Salah Sterling Walcot Arni
Kane Firmino Wilson
(Elliot Robertson Lingard Ogbonna)
2FT 0.5ITB
Whats my priorities? Im looking at Christensen -> Maguire. Y or N??
Priority should be watching CL.
Son benched. Has he been dropped. Surely time to sell
Will start the next league match IMO
Lol
Is he not being rested for Rochdale?
Kane owners getting carried away. Won't play Juventus every week.
Bets midfielder from this bunchniw they are all fit?
A) Sane
B) Arnautovic
C) Ramsey
Sane the only one from this lot that has the potential to be world class imo.
FPL?
Ramsey > Arnie > Sane in fpl terms if fully fit but considering their nailedness and fixtures from here on out Id say.
sane
Arnie. Sane plays too wide and is more expensive. Ramsey is also a good option when fit
Mousa Dembele and Eric Dier completed more passes in the first half (97) than all Juventus players together (93).
BBC sport
Wow. Backwards, sideways or forwards, that's an impressive stat.
Only can have one next week
Kane or Aguero.
Which
Harry
Kane
As an Aguero owner from GW 10, I moved him for Kane last night. One of a 3 part -4.
Kane, although prob keeping both.
All Spurs players say Dembele is their best player. Love it when it turns it on
Too lazy
Would love to see him against Casemiro.
Aurier yellow
Aurier needs to be hooked
Jafooli's not here to catch him
Indeed Sandro is destroying him when he gets a run at him.
Good news for spurs as aurier misses the second leg
Take Aurier off.
Aurier starting PL games around the 2nd leg.
Big blow for Juventus as Aurier can't play the reverse fixtures due to yellow cards quota.
u would think reading the comments on here that spurs are leading. remember, the greatest team ever to grace the premier league
Don't know what you're talking about mate
Friend*
This game needs Trippier and Lucas Moura for Aurier and Alli
get Son on
And Arsenal for Spurs
🙁
Poch better not hang around too long when it comes to hauling Aurier off or he could be playing with ten.
Is it worth dropping hazard to accommodate KANE into my front two of KUN / FIRMINHO
Or just drop KUN for KANE.
just do KUN to KANE
Thanks
Aurier is a complete liability. The only good thing, with Poch favouring him in CL games for some insane reason, is it makes Trippier more of a regular for PL.
Spurs full backs having a terrible game
Has to get tripper on now
Gundogan essential?
is this a serious comment?
Haha, what do you think?
is this a serious comment?
Was great for a while last season. Until I got him in.
Lloris on fire
What a miss by higuain
Aurier's man too.
Liability!!!
Alonso to vvd for -4?
Loooool
Haha
6 years, 9 months agowhen spurs play like that there's no better team to watch in world football, pace and technique and never overcommitting men forward (pool fan)
