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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    KDB plus Barry and promote Capoue to 4th mid
    Or
    Sterling and Firmino which would need -4 to downgrade Azpil to 4.8 or less?

    Ta 🙂

        9 years, 10 months ago

        Interesting, certainly saves money and a hit

        Hard to resist Firmino st home to Hull

  2. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    A) Costa -> Aguero for -4
    B) Ibra -> Aguero for free

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      A

    2. Worzel Gummidge

    WC this or stick?

    Foster Heaton
    Baines Shaw Stones Pieters Amat
    Sanchez Haz Firm Redmond Capoue
    Ibra Benteke Gray

    Thanks for any advice.

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…

      WC

  5. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…

    Is a defence of Baines / Holebas / Stones / Amat / Kingsley too weak?

    1. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Just pick Williams instead of Baines and upgrade one of the 2 Swansea boys

    2. Marcin the Pole
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Yes I would say so

  6. Podge
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Which ff price rise page is the most reliable ?

  7. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Now all the games or gone, would you do:

    Hazard + Ozil + Ibra --> Sanchez + Fletcher + Aguero (-4)

    Pickford/Cech
    Williams Masuaku McAuley
    Sanchez Firmino Capoue Antonio
    Aguero C Lukaku Benteke

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      9 years, 10 months ago

      100% but Capoue 4th mid doesn't appeal to me. Easily fixed once, sorry if, he starts blanking. Dont want to upset fellow owners that play him.

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Want to avoid a benching headache, he does get forward a lot and is on corner kicks with Holebas, might also get the occasional free kick since he and Holebas were standing behind the ball. With the money I'll probably do Benteke to Costa if he doesn't pick up a yellow card against Arsenal.

    2. Lone Wolf FPL
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      wait for cup games midweek

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Ofcourse, I'm not pulling the trigger yet, but do they look like good moves to you?

  8. Fishy-o

    Anyone know what happened to Tadic baps today?

    1. TorresMagic™

      Missed out by a point.

  9. andymck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    A) Mane + Deeney
    B) Firmino + Benteke

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Firmino + Deeney and spend the cash somewhere else.

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        This

    2. Trae44
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      A easy out of them

  10. RangerMouse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Jaku - Foster
    Shaw - Terry - Stones - Friend - Parades
    Hazard - Lamela - Redmond - Bolasie - Capoue
    Kane - Lukaku - Ibra

    WC activated with 1.3ITB, where do I start? Need to get Aguero and Sanchez in if possible. Going to go about it one step at a time so some starting tips would be great. 🙂

    Kane -> Aguero to start.

    1. 824545201
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Downgrade Ibra to upgrade Hazard and Redmond to Sanchez and Firminoi/Coutinho.
      Also rework your defence completely.

  11. ryacoo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    A) Ibra & Hazard > Kun & Firmino (2 FTs)

    B) Benteke, Hazard & Ozil > Kun, Firmino & Snodgrass (-4)
    and play Capoue over Snodgrass next 2 Gameweeks.

    1. gunner137
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I'm going for A myself. After much reflexion, Ibraguero costs way too much in my opinion

  12. SuperDan
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Kane definitely out next week right? Looked bad

    1. Clump
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Probably. We can only guess.

  13. Jazzmattazz
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    So is Ibra keeping that assist for sure?

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Unlikely for them to change.

  14. Le _ Professeur
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Any spare Wild Card out there 😀

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      holding

  15. Ryan_P27
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Would you do Aguero and Bolasie or and mid up to 6 mill for Rondon and Barkley?

    Rest of team

    Foster Jaku
    Williams shaw Amat Collins McCauley
    Hazard Barkley sterling Capone Redmond
    Indra lukkaku Rondon

    Also thinking of pssoibly taking one hit for either haz to payet

  16. turd ferguson
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    A- KdB, Hazard, Lukaku
    B - Sterling, Sanchez, Costa

    these are with Aguero. Need an opinion please 🙂

    1. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      B but with Lukaku over Costa

    2. Shifty
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      A

      But whoah would like to see the rest of your squad. Capoue 4th mid?

    3. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Sterlign Sanchez Lukaku

    4. Totally !rre!evant
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Can you afford Sanchez, Hazard, Lukaku?

  17. st4rt__
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    In somewhat a predicament going forward -

    Which would you prefer:

    A) Lloris, Sterling, £4.5m def, Alexis.
    B) Lloris, Monreal, one of KDB/Alexis, Snoddy.

    If A, my other defenders are Williams, Holabas, Pieters, Amat. (non ITB)

    1. Totally !rre!evant
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      B, another 4.5 def is far too weak imo

  18. Magic Man
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Pereyra or Bolasie or who else in that range, have snodgrass.

  19. Valar(Keith)
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Foster (jaku)
    Shaw Stones Evans Friend Amat
    Hazard Mane Sterling Antonio Capoue
    Ibra lukaku Benteke
    1.5 in the bank, 0 ft
    I should just hold onto my WC and Swap ibra for kun right? Or play WC?

    1. OLLY G
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah l would hold

    2. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      No Pogba? 🙂

  20. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Slimani or Costa?
    Antonio or Sterling?
    Snodgrass or Chadli?

    1. Totally !rre!evant

    WHY ARE PEOPLE BRINGING IN AGUERO??? He may actually rise before his price is frozen......

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      What?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Up to 33%

      2. Giovanni Giorgio
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        According to FFFix he's going up by 3% an hour. And they have him going up tomorrow night aka before his ban is officially lifted and before his price get's that 8-day freeze.

        You with me?

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          No. If you buy him why would you be worried that his price may rise? 😕

    2. Baines on Toast...
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      His price will not be frozen.

      1. Giovanni Giorgio
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        It will.

  22. Garfield1001
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Antonio or Payet? Money no object

    1. Totally !rre!evant
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      P

  23. Fantasy123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    A) Costa + Hazard
    B) Ibra + Eriksen

  24. OLLY G
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    On wildcard.

    Better to play 3-5-2 with Firmino and stronger defence

    or

    3-4-3 with Costa and weaker defence

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Tough to keep clean sheets right now. Advisable to go strong in attack.

  25. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Any Sunderland fans here? PVA dropped just for today's game or is he expected to be off for a few games now?

    1. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Moyes says medical reasons but he wasn't very convincing

      Looks like PVA has done something to get dropped

  26. M.A.G
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Sorry for re-posting but didn't get much replies..
    Would you do
    Redmond/Ibra/Pva > Sterling/Aguero/Holebas (-4) ?

  27. pablo discobar
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    my team for next gw

    GK Pick ford
    DEF Valencia, Stones, Baines
    MID Sanchez, Antonio, Capoue, Bolasie
    FWD Lukaku, Ibra, Benteke

    SUBS (Heaton) Hazard, Mcauley, Amat.

    Plan is to sell Hazard and Tekkers for Albrighton and Aguero. exact money. Albrighton is a 5.3 punt. but seems nailed on,scored in champions league etc.

    Sound OK?

  28. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Looks like PVA maybe in the dog house

  29. Le _ Professeur
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    (A) Chadli (6.4) away to Stoke
    (B) Antonio (7.2) home to Southampton

    1. Sweetboi
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      B. West Brom are still West Brom.

  30. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    All my current outfield players have away fixtures next week. Anyone else the same?
