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

    Who would have thought Amat would outscore Holebas after yesterday?

        1. Konig Luther
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          probably will start soon, with everyone else going to AFCON

    2. ZeBestee

      crazy. Very bad week for defenders

    Kane to Costa this week certainly not one of the worst transfers I have ever made but it's up there.....cost me 10 points so far

    1. Jimmy Boy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Same here, should pay off those ten points over the course of the season though

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        yeah I guess if Costa scores midweek and Kane dosen't I won't be complaining then

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

      Yep you and I and many others the same. Seemed the right move on paper

    1. ZeBestee

      at last

  13. Kizza_10
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Is this team good enough to wildcard to ? Yes or no

    Heaton
    Ake Cahill Azpi
    Phillips Sanchez Lallana Allen
    Kane Ibrahimovic Costa

    Subs:
    Grant, Friend, Amat, Carrick

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

      No

  14. Jay_
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Kane subbed

    • Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Kane off. C'mon Eriksen do something!

    • Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Barca would beat this Watford side by triple digits.

      1. makaveli123
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Don't think they'll be able to score over 1 goal / minute

      2. Somalion
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Loving it after they sacked QSF.

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

          He would not have saved them. His 2016 record was played 19 16 points. Watford this season are played 19 (after this game) 22 points. QSF had turned sour. Same as Adkins as Southampton (when Poch replaced him). Watford made a poor choice with this guy though IMO.

    • Somalion
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I hope beyond hope that the Sanchez flu speculators were all Özil owners.

    • Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Eriksen 1 goal could take him ahead of Alli on baps. Would sweeten the blow.

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        He's prob on pens fks corners now too with kane off

        1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
          • 10 Years

          Nah Janssen on

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

        That would be amusing.

      3. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I'd be happy with just an assist at this point.

    • Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Thank you Harry! Lovely parting gift 🙂

      1. greghammer95

      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I ruddy love The Differentiator!

      If it wasn't for him, I would have captained Costa and not Kane. People need to listen to this guy.

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Damn, nice one mate.

        Did Kane to Aguero this week. 🙁

        Pickford-Heaton
        Holebas-Ake-Alonso-Pieters-Amat
        Sanchez-Hazard-Lallana-Siggy-DeRoon
        Aguero-Costa-Rondon

        0.1itb. thoughts? How can I get some Spurs in there.

        1. thep025
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Remove Haz.?

          1. EDEN THE MAN
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Been thinking about it but I'm not too sure

      5. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Maitland-Niles and Rene-Adelaide on the bench.

        Squad getting thin for the one time of the year we need it...

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

          But the bantz must be amazing, all about cheese board anecdotes and skiing trips.

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

        First World FPL problems. When you have 2 FTS and want to do so much. LIke Hazard > Pogba, sort Origi out,. But Holebas > Ake is probably sensible thing to do.

        1. Wilshere Knowledge
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Before Arsenal?

        2. Weasel Boy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Think8ng al8ng the same lines.
          I also have Anat 🙁

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

          Origi a good player at the price. Will probably start against Sunderland too (a very poor team IMO). Last 8 games - 42 points from Origi. Place probably safe given Mane off to AFCON and Coutinho not fit.

      7. Legomane
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        BBC reporting both Alli goals as Kane assists. Post match review á la Alonso incoming?

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

          So you're saying there's a chance?

          1. Legomane
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Oh yes...Let the fury unfold

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

        Kane off finally. But not before he bent me over a barrell and took me on a world tour.

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

          You enjoyed it though. That was the worst part.

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

            😯 😆

        How long left?

        1. MTPockets
            9 years, 5 months ago

            too long.

          • Fred54
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Who cares man, we own Eriksen....

            About 10 + injury to go.

        2. Postman Ty
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Oh come on that could have been 20 more minute of golden Kane time. And then he would have been a little more tired against Chelsea 😉

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

          Ozil got the sniffles

        4. thep025
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Do Origi - >Kane today? Or wait till tomorrow after deadline? I guess tomorrow?

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

            I didn't know we could add our Xmas money to the ITB fund.

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

              Seriously though how you funding that.
