Gameweek 3 gets underway in some style: on paper, the early kick-off at White Hart Lane has the makings of a classic. However, much depends on the version of the Liverpool side that turns up.

Jurgen Klopp’s men were spectacular in the season opener against Spurs’ north London rivals, Arsenal. They followed that display a week later with frustrating showing at Burnley, as they slipped to a 2-0 reverse having hogged 83% of the ball.

As for Spurs, they’ve certainly failed to spark to this point. A stalemate with Everton was followed by a stuttering display against Palace, which eventually saw them grind out a 1-0 win.

Harry Kane is back as the lone striker. Philippe Coutinho is fit and on the Liverpool teamsheet. The scene is set for the big Fantasy assets to come to the fore.

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

    Kane to be the best 6.5 striker option by Christmas?

    1. Rains of Castamere
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Just don't bench him vs Chelsea

    Golly Gosh i'm glad i didn't go with my preseason hunch of one Harry Kane.

    Anyone mentioning Dembele within 5 words of Kane should get a 15 minute ban.

    1. Eden Azzzar
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      U did 4. Can we get a ban over here?

      1. Mull
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        As a Kane owner I'm off to bang my head against a wall for 15 minutes.

        1. Eden Azzzar
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          People actually own him I thought it was a myth 🙂

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Anyone who has Kane should be banned.

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Harry + Dembele then

    4. tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Jonty should breathe out of his mouth for the entire next Scoutcast.

    5. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Kane might prove to be essential once Dembele is back

  5. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Should I watch SOU-SUN (Redmond, Davis) or CPL-BOU (Benteke)?

    1. faver
      • 10 Years

      soton, switch after 1st goal for bou

    2. Wild Card this!

    Did that chap, that just came on for Spurs, go to a fancy dress party last night?

  7. Gerbs
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    LOL at the multiple "why would anyone spend more in ibra when Kane is a better option" followed by the "shhh don't tell anyone" messages before the season

    1. Worzel Gummidge
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Cool story bro.

      • Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I reckon Kane will finish the season with more goals.

        1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Yep agree.

      • Eden Azzzar
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        No idea what you are talking about

      • Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        The best was Rooney + 2.5m & pens > Ibra...

        LOLs

      • devils advocate
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I'd rather have Rooney plus 2.7 mil to spend elsewhere, lol.

      Kane price drop incoming

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years

        0.2-0.3 IMO

      2. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        At least -0.2

        What does Jordan Henderson actually do?

        1. Bubz
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Good question

        2. rdamjan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

          No one knows.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Nothing, but he is a Liverpool captain and therefore a key cog for England

        4. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
          • 9 Years

          Used car salesman.

          Ambles around like a duck with anger management issues.

          1. The Royal Robin
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Most appt description IMHO.

        6. devils advocate
          • 11 Years

          He's a bricklayer by trade but loves getting out on the pitch with the lads on weekends.

          Its Onomah, I believe.

      4. Prison Mike
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Should of pulled the trigger on Gray > Benteke!

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          why? neither have scored yet

          1. Prison Mike
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Don't fancy Grays chances against Chelsea, hopefully he proves me wrong though!

      5. Cantona90
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Did Jonty do Firmino to Barkley? I like to know what he's doing because he's the best out of the main contributors.

        1. Lyonnais
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          he did

        2. Eskimooo
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Sure Granville Isn't the best ? 🙂

      6. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        There will be an absolute fire sale for Kane the next 2 weeks. Will be good to get him when my TV is a bit higher.

        1. devils advocate
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          He'll be a great option around gw 7 imo.

          Didn't get going until gw 8 last season from memory.

      7. The Royal Robin
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I'm the only one in both of my main leagues that hasn't (C) Aguero and I am currently top in both. Gulp. Really hope my 'gamble' on Zlatan pays off.

      8. DanwiseTheBrave
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        seeing Onomah makes me feel like a pint of Guinness

        1. The Royal Robin
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          😀

        2. Bartowski
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          What kind of weird ass ginger Guinness do you drink?

          1. DanwiseTheBrave
            • 14 Years

            How did you know I was a ginger

        2. Eden Azzzar
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Lamelaaaaaaa?

        3. Somalion
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          He's picked up a bit towards the end, but I've counted at least 4 times he's passed it straight back to Pool in vulnerable positions.

      10. Somalion
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Best striker in the world coming on for Mane

        1. Eden Azzzar
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Solomon Kalou gone to pool?

          1. Somalion
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            You know it 😎

      11. Cantona90
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        God he's arrogant Sturridge. Really don't like him.

        1. Cantona90
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          If he stopped thinking he was the best player in the world he might be better.

          1. Wilshere Knowledge
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            I can't profess to have insight into his internal thoughts, personally.

            1. Cantona90
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 7 months ago

              I can. He's never actually injured he just doesn't like working weekends.

        2. @persecuted_by_mods
            9 years, 7 months ago

            In what way is he arrogant?

        3. Nabs Kebabs
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Lamela has easily been the best attacking player for Spurs today.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

              Yep but more directed towards all those bashing him at HT

            Half time he was muck, great to see him back to essential

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Sturridge on with 2 minutes to go makes a whole lot of sense

          9. Geri-hatricks
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Phew, Mane goes off safely without a goal so I can get him at 8.9m and as a differential 😎
