Just one game today. However, judging by the final results of our Captain’s Poll there may be a lot riding on this for a lot of Fantasy Managers out there – yours truly included. The Dugout Discussion welcomes Spurs and QPR to their technical areas…

Spurs XI: Friedel; Walker, Kaboul, King, Assou-Ekotto; Lennon, Parker, Modric, Bale; Van der Vaart; Adebayor

QPR XI: Kenny; Young, Hall, Ferdinand, Traore; Barton, Faurlin, Derry, Wright-Phillips, Taarabt; Helguson

Tottenham make just one change from the side which won at Blackburn last week with Ledley King returning to the fray in place of Sebastian Bassong with QPR following suit in the single change stakes. Armand Traore returns in place of Clint Hill.

Then, when this tie is said and done, we go back to our lives and wait for Monday’s bonus point haul and Stoke playing host to Newcastle in the final fixture of the gameweek tomorrow evening.

    I tell you if City drop off (not sure it will happen) but this could be a wide open title race what with:

    City United Chels Spurs Arse Liverpool great to see plenty of title contenders and let's not forget Newcastle or is that just pushing it?

      I think Liverpool is pushing it too, say they're certain behind City, United, Chelsea and Spurs in term of quality. Probably behind Arsenal as well.

      Newcastle has had a great start but it would be unimaginable for them to continue in this fashion considering the squad they have.

    It's not like he wasn't getting chances, so a good points haul is around the corner. But getting Hernandez in for a free transfer is oh so tempting!
