Sunday brings the curtain down on Gameweek 19 with two more matches before the following round of fixtures gets underway tomorrow.

First up, we make up way to Vicarage Road, where Spurs are looking to take advantage of a Watford defence that’s failed to keep a clean sheet in eight league encounters.

Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli both served up double-figure tallies on their midweek travels in a 4-1 win at Southampton – the Dane now has 10+ points in four of his last six.

With a total of 10 points accrued over the last four fixtures, Harry Kane, meanwhile, is second only to Romelu Lukaku for transfers out this Gameweek as the scramble to acquire Sergio Aguero ahead of City’s clash with Burnley picks up pace.

The Hornets have netted just once in the previous three but with clashes against Stoke, Middlesbrough, Bournemouth and Burnley in the subsequent five, Walter Mazzarri’s men have a chance to play their way into our plans.

Certainly, the home side will fancy their chances against a defence that’s devoid of suspended pair Kyle Walker and Jan Vertonghen after both toppled off the Suspension Tightrope last time around.

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

    Commentator "you're watching when Harry met Deli".

    Wow

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Surely "Alli" was the better choice.

      "two lashes of the Kane"

    When in doubt, read the rules.

    "If an opposing player touches the ball after the final pass before a goal is scored, significantly altering the intended destination of the ball, then no assist is awarded."

      Kane Non owner?

        • 11 Years

        Does it matter? Whoever I own, it doesn't make the lack of an assist any less obvious.

    2. Wilshere Knowledge

      I doubt the people who think it's a Kane assist can actually read.

        Ouch - but it definitely wasn't a Kane assist .... maybe a Lukaku one.

      When do they add kane assist?

        Eriksen and rose owner here. No goal or assist. So frustrating

        1. Van der Faart
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Eriksen has made 2 assists for the assist though

          1. Van der Faart
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Didn't quite finish that sentence really. He's right on the cuff but he's been heavily involved.

      4. The Enlightener
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        It isn't and never will be a Kane assist. End of.

        1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Kane owners seem to be convincing themselves. Who knows with the jokers at FPL..they do what they want

      5. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Alonso clearly intended to throw the ball to Hazard (think it was, number 10) yesterday and got the assist, so how is this different?

        1. Jazz!
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          He tried to throw it to Costa actually.

          1. Numb
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Looked aimed towards Hazard to me but the deflection took it over to Costa

        2. DLL18
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Because Kane was passing to Son, not Alli.

      6. Rolls-Royce
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Finally patience with a player has paid off. Was too much pressure to sell for Costa.

        1. Karan_G14
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Are you selling him now?

          I feel like keeping atleast for Chelsea game now

          1. Van der Faart
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Definitely keep. Record in the derbies is phenomenal

        9 years, 5 months ago

        Breaking the cobra :

        If you want Kane instead of Eriksen, then you'd have to swap to Costa and bring in Hazard?

        1. Gr3g

          Wtf is cobra?

          1. Clifford☯
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Kun + Costa + Ibra

            1. rivercityransom
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              where's kun in that? that's just (co)sta + i(bra)

              1. Gr3g
                • 14 Years
                9 years, 5 months ago

                It's stupid with Kun or not!

      8. Speédy

        Eriksen. To alli for a hit

        1. Crystal
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Looks good

          1. greghammer95
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Are you insane? Not for a bit. Eriksen has been a great choice the last 4 weeks. Keep the faith, still got 45 minutes in this one yet.

      9. Van der Faart
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        3 Spurs goals and no involvement from Eriksen. But Kane rewarding the faith. 😎

        How to use my final FT? 2.1m ITB.

        Was about to do Kane > Kun but unsure now! Any help guys?

        Heaton
        Lovren Pieters Evans
        Sanchez Hazard Eriksen Phillips
        Kane Zlatan Carroll
        (Jaku, Walker, Capoue, Amat)

        1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          I'm gonna wait until the games have finished but there are a few options now. Maybe a defense upgrade, maybe even Bentekkers in as 3rd striker vs Hull, or maybe stick to the original Kun plan.

      11. Aston-villain
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Calm down Harry u muppet

      12. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Another Kane goal and and an Eriksen goal please, both assisted by each other 😀

      13. Rains of Castamere
        • 11 Years

        Kept the faith with Harry over Costa... lovely stuff

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          But your name is a bad omen

        3-5-2

        Ibra and Kane?

        West Brom, Sunderland and Middlesbrough in the 4 games after Chelsea...

        1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Leaning towards keep now. Harry took a long time to get into gear last season, and keeping him makes the midfield a lot more fun to tinker with.

        2. Karan_G14
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Boro & Brom won't be easy.

        4. 1966 was a great year for E…
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Chop and change between Ibra, Kane, Costs and Aguero, depending on fixtures.

      15. Sponge-worthy
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Kane a couple more and eriksen+rose blanks please.

      16. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Sub Kane, Alli and Eriksen after 65 minutes please Poch....

      17. Shteve
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Unfortunately, no assist for Kane, going by the rules:

        If an opposing player touches the ball after the final pass before a goal is scored, significantly altering the intended destination of the ball, then no assist is awarded.

        1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          I think Alonso's throw was "significantly altered".

          1. Shteve
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Sure was, there have been some strange decisions over the years so I wouldn't be surprised if it was given but going by the rules it shouldn't.

      18. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Coutinho, Alexis, Kane, Kun and Costa is easily achievable in a few weeks...

      19. SirStevieG
        • 13 Years

        Lol Kane non owners in fear the assist will be given hahaha

      21. MOZIL
        • 9 Years

      23. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        KIC anyone?

        1. Numb
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Surely most people are going towards that

          1. Fred54
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Most people?

            1. Numb
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              As of 10 minutes ago lol

              1. Fred54
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 5 months ago

                True.

      24. TooDifficuIt
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        why it feels wrong now to do kane to kun, anyone keeping him ?

        1. Shteve
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          This was my plan, but not so sure now..

      25. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Kane awarded assist.

        1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Said no one ever.

      26. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Even if Kane doesn't get the assist and the game ends now, them points are a massive differential this week 🙂
