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

    Origi to Benteke

    Why did I do Kane > Costa this week?

    1. Ninja Škrtel
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      same..ffs

    2. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Seemed a good idea at the time

    3. denial
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I did it too. Against my better judgement.

    4. Crow
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Ah. Comrades.

    Holebas on his way to another 0

    1. Yellin' in my Ear
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Means I may be one point better off having transferred him to Jones this week (autosub) 🙂

  5. The Royal Robin
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    FFS... But fair play to Kane owners.

  6. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Well the Kane > Costa transfer backfired on me then

    1. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      On a lot of us to be honest.

  7. Paul Psychic Octopus
    • 15 Years

    Bitter sweet. Have Kane this GW but sold for Negredo for next week

    1. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      What

      1. Paul Psychic Octopus
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Other half of the deal was Redmond > Hazard. Already have Eriksen.

    2. SirStevieG
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      mental

  8. Winks Club
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Not sure I want to sell Kane anymore...

  9. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Still prefer Ibra and Costa 🙂

    1. Crow
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I'm sticking with those two and praying kane doesn't ram in more long term

  10. Yellin' in my Ear
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    As a Walker and Eriksen owner, not really enjoying this match. The former could struggle to get back in given how well Trippier is playing, and the latter is looking a lot less threatening than Alli and even Rose

    1. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Think Eriksen is playing too deep with no Dembele in the game.

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Yep

      2. Yellin' in my Ear
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Exactly

    2. Winks Club
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Walker is for sure the N.1 right back, no question.

  11. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Ibra out

    Kane In

    1. Crow
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      No way

  12. JS27
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Did Kane > Ibra for a hit... seems 2017 is going to be a continuation of my 2016 fantasy football horror show.

  13. Epic Fail
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Damn. No time inbetween GWs to profit on Kane kneejerk rises.

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Happy enough with the points!

    2. FPL_Hazards
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Dropping tonight

      1. BananaNose Maldonado
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I'd doubt it. That trend will reverse quickly.

  14. JustPark
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    God of fpl is punishing Kane ex owners

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Siggy next?

      1. Jimmers
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Swansea are pants

      2. JustPark
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Nahh. Unless he hits double digits..

  15. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    errrrm now the kane >> kun decision becomes ever soo hard sigh!

      Did it last night, pleased!

  16. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Kane only 13% ownership 🙂

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Not too damaging then 🙂

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        No, but great for us who kept 😉

  17. Karan_G14
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Chances of Kane scoring against Chelsea and Costa scoring against Spurs should be the same.

    Worth selling Kane right now?

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years

      See kane's record in London derbies....

  18. Robe Wan

    Kane (C) 😎

    Thanks you Numb for pushing me into it

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Oh really? OK no problem. You deserve it for that bravery.

  19. Sanchit
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    RIP KOBRA

  20. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Kane's points are great but they are a parting gift... The best thing to come from this game could be Trippier given more chances vs Walker!

  21. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Everyone don't worry....

    At least none of you did Kane to Lukaku for a hit! Haha!

  22. KJT123
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Kane > Aguero after this match was always the plan. Don't let emotions get the better of your decisions...

    1. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      This.

    2. The Enlightener
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Ah, it's all one big crap shoot anyways.

    3. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      But you might want to let form get in the way. And that's more about the entire sides' forms than just the strikers.

      1. BananaNose Maldonado
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Tottenham look to be the new Liverpool with no CL to worry about anymore.

  23. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    We are very lucky to have tripper and Davies as backups.

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Best set of full backs in club football

  24. Ninja Škrtel
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    plenty of time for some Eriksen magic.

  25. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Eriksen is playing rather too deep...

  26. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Kane only owned by 13% of top 10k wowwwww

    1. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Nice diff then 🙂

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      They're top 10k because they had Ibra instead.

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Oh. I have both.

      2. Ógie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Oh ya?

      As a football fan. Wait until half time perhaps?

  28. thep025
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    How does a fwd line of Kane Costa Ibra sound?

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Sounds good.

    2. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Sounds like my forward line this week

  29. ZTF
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Any idea if Walcott will be back for Bournemouth?

  30. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Pity there is no time for Kane to rise .4m it is not fair 🙁
