A busy Sunday of football comes to its conclusion at White Hart Lane as Spurs and Sunderland go head-to-head in the 4.30pm kick-off.

The hosts’ 4-0 win over Stoke last weekend boosted out faith in the likes of Harry Kane and Dele Alli, yet their midweek Champions League loss to Monaco at Wembley suggests Mauricio Pochettino’s side have yet to hit top gear.

Christian Eriksen and Erik Lamela owners are left cursing their luck after the duo were named amongst the subs, with Mousa Dembele returning to the XI following a six-match suspension.

Certainly, the home side will be buoyed by their visitors’ second-half capitulation at home to Everton on Monday night.

The Black Cats have yet to win under David Moyes and, considering their current form, may well be lucky to avoid a repeat of the 4-1 reverse in the corresponding fixture last season.

    how would you get aguero in this team1.4 itb
    chech/pickford
    walker/Williams/evans/Collins/amat
    ozil/mane/Antonio/sterling/Cattermole
    kane/lukaku/tekkers

    What happened to Tompkins today?

  3. Back on the horse
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    How is this WC draft looking:

    Foster Jaku
    WIlliams Amat Fuchs Friend Holebas
    Antonio Sanchez Lallana Firmino Capoue
    Aguero Lukaku Deeney
    0.8m

    Worth downgrading Fuchs to a 5.0 and upgrading Lallana to Sterling?

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Would definitely do the transfers you've suggested. Looks decent then.

  4. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Considering Deeney in for Bony -4 and using my AOA chip.

    Most likely to concede out of:

    A) Dawson(WBM)
    B) Bellerin
    C) Valencia

  5. MisterMaster
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Rashford or deeney?

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Deeney will def play every game so prob him, have you considered Rondon if you have Capoue?

  6. Pratik
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    At some point, won't we see Marshall coming in for Jakupovic, right?

    Short of -0.4, but team looks amazing right now

    Jaku, Pickford
    Walker, McAuley, Friend, Baines, Amat
    Antonio, Sterling, Firminho, Sanchez, Capoue
    Lukaku, Aguero, Deeney

    Will have to downgrade Antonio/Deeney/Walker - Thoughts?

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I think one of Jaku or Pickford will play for the next few weeks at least, both have been playing well despite conceeding!

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

    Foster - Jaku
    Fuchs - Valencia - Stones - Friend - Amat
    Haz - Firm - Redmond - Bolasie - Capoue
    Ibra - Lukaku - Tekkers

    1 FT 3.8 itb

    Would you,

    A) WC
    B) do ibra + redmond = kun + sterling/antonio for -4

    Thanks guys.

    1. ramunas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Team is still decent, take the hit and save WC for intl break. Easy saying that tho, I pushed the button in GW4.

  8. The real slim shady
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Worth or not taking -4 to:
    Hazard -> Firm
    Costa ->aguero
    lamela->Capoue

  9. Jack Irish
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Which one. A) KDB and Capoue (with Deamande as the enabler)

    or B) Sterling and Denney (with Capoue as the enabler)

    I prefer B, but i just cant hack another Capoue bench haul so im learning with A.... Also With city firing at the moment i think its wise to pick their best assests right now.

    But will KDB drop deeper with Aguero Back?

  10. MFC86
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Rashford worth it as 3rd striker?

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      giving zlatan another week and seeing if Rashford has in fact nailed a starting role... lost last 2 he started so Mourinho may want to change his midfield 3 behing zlatan... wait n see would be my advice

  11. WVA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Current WC team below, 0.5 itb... Who would you upgrade?

    Pickford Jaku
    Lovren Evans Holebas Kings Amat
    Kdb Sanchez Mane Snod Capoue
    Aguero Kaku Rondon

    1. MFC86
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I like that a lot to be honest, maybe lacking Chelsea but you can't have everyone, great efffort

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yes i would like Chelsea cover but am gonna hold of however I will downgrade kdb for haz when his form picks up!

    2. ramunas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Defence is awful, but you probably know that. Lots of explosive players in front 8 will hopefully make it more than worthwhile. Good luck

  12. Ryan_P27
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Best 6.6 and under mid for next two-3 game weeks? Chadli(against Stoke next but anyone know if he's injured??) Bolasie, pereya. Puncheon?

    Planing to switch to snoddy after 2 weeks

    1. MFC86
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Bolasie if you haven't got Lukaku

      1. Ryan_P27
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers for the reply. Already have lukkaku. Before the game week was planning on getting Bolasie but Chadli is tempting me as Stoke next but not sure

  13. Vasty Deep
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Who to get?

    A. Snodgrass
    B. Puncheon
    C. Pereyra

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      A

  14. aleksios

    9 years, 2 months ago

    so before i go to sleep..Wc ok?
    Foster,Jakup
    Shaw,Smith,McAuley,Amat.Friend
    Alexis,Firmino,Antonio,Snodd,Capoue
    Kun,Zlatan,Deeney.

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Very nice all round team, I'd downgrade a couple of the df so i could upgrade Deeney though.

  15. For Fuchs Sake
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Boruc has better fixtures than Foster, might go Polish!!

  16. Krul Runnings
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    I was content with 6 & 3 from Tadic & Redmond today.

    BUt, seriously, how on earth did Southampton not score 6 or 7 goals!

    Could've both had 10+ hauls easily.

  17. Defaid Daniel
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    is aguero starting this weekend?

    1. Baby Cuties
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      pretty sure he is

  18. Vasty Deep
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Need help deciding front 8. To double on city or not?

    A) Mane Sanchez Capoue Antonio STERLING
    Aguero Lukaku BENTEKE

    B) Mane Sanchez Capoue Antonio SNODGRASS/ PEREYRA
    Ageruo Lukaku COSTA

    Chelsea has difficult fixtures but Costa MAY shine through (good record against big teams and is in better form). On the other hand, double down on Man city is not a bad move given their form. Please suggest.

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'd go B with Snod, best WC front 8 in my opinion!

    This place has gone to the dogs.
    The link to FPL twitter/ FPL scout (whatever) I've looked at neither, has flooded this place with RMTers and A or Bers.
    The good conversations are few and far between and it takes a lot of effort to find those good conversations.
    I completely understand why Mark did what he did. But, wow, this place used to be great.

  23. Lizard Lips
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Heaton Pickford
    Baines Dann McAuley Holebas Amat
    Firmino Sterling Sanchez Antonio Capoue
    Aguero Lukaku Deeney

  24. Whits

    Could I get some feedback on this WC draft please?

    Cech - Jaku

    Williams - Holebas - Evans - Kone - Amat

    Sanchez - Sterling - Lallana - Capoue - Fletcher

    Costa - Lukaku - Aguero

    1. Baby Cuties
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      looks top-heavy, but cant blame you given all the good attacking options.

      maybe cheap defence is the way to go

  25. jmcclory123
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    will Sanchez rise tonight?

    And will Aguero double rise this week?

    1. Pasqualinho
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Doubt both very much
