Versus – Eriksen & Alli

After ending Chelsea’s winning run by netting both Spurs’ goals in a 2-0 victory at the Lane, Dele Alli is the hottest property around in Fantasy Premier League right now.

Subject to a massive 303,000+ acquisitions since the previous deadline passed, the midfield starlet has netted twice in each of his last three appearances, as Mauricio Pochettino’s men prepare for a kind run of fixtures.

Spurs face West Brom, Sunderland, Middlesbrough and Stoke City in their next six Gameweeks.

Alli’s headline-hogging surge to third in the FPL midfield standings has somewhat overshadowed the form of team-mate Christian Eriksen, who has been acquired by 57,000+ managers ahead of Saturday’s home clash with the Baggies.

Priced at 8.5 and 8.6 respectively, this latest article for members will assess the midfield duo’s recent displays since striker Harry Kane’s return to action from an ankle problem.

Factoring in injuries to both Kane and Alli, we will focus our attentions from Gameweek 13 onwards – essentially, the first time that the pair, along with Eriksen, had appeared in Pochettino’s starting line-up since a 4-0 win at Stoke City back in Gameweek 4.

In terms of FPL output during that spell, the two midfield options have been remarkably similar, with Eriksen just edging it by 74 points to 72.

Alli has been slightly more consistent, delivering a goal on six of those eight occasions to Eriksen’s five, though the Dane has proven the more explosive.

Whereas Alli has managed 10+ points on three occasions, Eriksen has achieved this five times – essentially, every time he’s produced attacking returns in this window.

    Those with 4 Chelsea now Ake has moved. What are your plans?

    Swap Ake or sacrifice another Chelsea player? If so... who?

      Acquire more Chelsea by whatever means necessary.

        Buy Llorente?

      I'd already sold Hazard but I'm left with both Alonso and Ake - presumably both won't play in the same match, but who to get rid of. Ake is cheap so if he does step in sometimes that would be great. But if Alonso's place is at risk I don't want him at his price. I think i'll wait a week or two to see what happens.

        Did you not want to hold haz for Hull game?

        I'm in two minds about getting rid for this reason.

    My team at the moment is:
    Grant
    Brunt. Pieters. Alonso
    Eriksen. Phillips. Sanchez (c) lallana. Hazard
    Ibra. Costa
    (Pickford. Baines. Jones. Anichebe)

    Not sure which defenders to play. Any suggestions?

      • 13 Years

      Wow. No aguero really gives you options!

    2. Monty PieFan

      G2g I would say. Maybe Baines for alonso. CS vs goal potential

    Ake - unlikely to play
    Cedric - flagged
    Anichebe - out
    Zaha - out
    Holgate - unlikely to play

    Do I:
    1) take a -4 (making it a -8 in total to bring in Friend/Chambers/Walker for either Ake or Cedric;
    2) take a -4 (-8 in total) and bring in Stanislas for Zaha;
    3) Leave it and see?

  6. Philip Jones's Diary

    Would you?

    1.) Phillips away to Tottenham
    2.) Diomande home to Bournemouth

    1. Monty PieFan
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      1

    2. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Phillips. West Brom can score against anyone from his corners, whereas Diomande can't score against anyone.

    3. Sess!
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      The one guaranteed to start.

      1. Philip Jones's Diary
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Usually a no brainer for me but the last time I did it Diomande scored against Palace.

    4. Ruth_NZ
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I will always play Phillips.

      He takes many set pieces. WBA are expert at converting them. In tougher games that will be their most likely way of scoring.

      I still think Chadli may well outscore Phillips over the next 10 weeks or so but Chadli will be more dependent on fixture I think. Bigger scores but less consistency.

      1. Philip Jones's Diary
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        I had Chadli a little while back and the inconsistency was killing me. Phillips it is then, thanks gang.

        Heaton all day. Sunderland will probably score at home against Stoke. Plus Southampton have been struggling with the amount of fixtures they've had to play. They play Liverpool mid week there is a fair chance they'll be tired again this weekend.

          Could be a lot of blanks in GW28. Gotta prepare for it!

          United could blank both given they have easy ties.

      Conte doesn't seem to have much faith in Batshuayi. He loved Llorente at Juve.

    4. Ruth_NZ
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Llorente played one season under Conte at Juventus. He scored 16 goals in 34 Serie A games and they won the title. That's why.

          They've been linked with his brother, whether he's coming too don't know. Might be a decent pick if he does

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

          Not as far as I know. I'm not saying it's in any way a done deal. Just explaining why Chelsea might want Llorente.

          It's similar to Mourinho and Zlatan. Would any other United manager have signed a 35 year-old as his main striker?

            I can def see why Conte wants him. The only way I see it happening is if Swansea can get a decent replacement. Batshuayi would rather join West ham on loan according to something I saw on twitter today.

            1. Ruth_NZ
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              I like Batshuayi from what I have seen. He looks a very good sub for Costa to me. But I'm not Conte so what do I know really.

              The one thing that bugs me is Chelsea buying young players and then not playing them. It has happened too much recently - Salah, Baba Rahman, Lukaku, KDB...

      Holebas. 2.89
      Fuchs. 2.89

      Also I think it's clearer to say points per 90 minutes 🙂

      Suffering from paranoia and halucinations last I heard. Saying crazy stuff like wanting Wenger to stay

    3. Cpt Crunch Scott talent

  25. Syd.
    • 14 Years

    Leeds will do well to finish this game with 11 on the pitch

  26. ThatAsianGuy17

    are valdes, brunt and evan still injured?

    1. Man Chest Hair United
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Wait for pressers. None are serious injuries from what I have read

    Could really do with some advice on my GK's and defence...

    Currently it is:-
    Heaton Foster
    Walker Ake Chambers Baines Pieters
    On my WC which option is best?

    A Cech Jaku Mee Walker
    B Heaton Foster Ake Walker
    C Heaton Boruc McAuley Vertonghen
    D Courtois Jaku Ward Vertonghen

    1. TLF

      You still determined to keep Ake in your side ? Why take the risk if on a WC unless you are happy for 4.4 bench fodder. If he plays get him in then, rather have 5 defenders who are guaranteed stsrteded

    2. TLF

      *starters haha

      1. Scotty B
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        So A, B, C or D then lol?

        1. TLF
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Just not Ake ! Not sure about the combinations, Brunt would be number 1 on the list for me and a Spurs defender close second

    3. Man Chest Hair United
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Go Heaton and jaku use the money spare to upgrade Ake to Brunt or daniels

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        B with jaku and brunt Daniels instead of Ake

    Is Firmino > Alli worth a -4?

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Nah. Firmino will come good with his buddy back

        Will Coutinho be fit?

          Yeah

    2. Man Chest Hair United
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      I think so should pay off this week even

  29. Man Chest Hair United
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Had Ake for the nice fixtures very frustrating which is best

    A Ake to smith or other 4.6
    B Alonso and Ake to Baines and brunt -4
    C hold free transfer

    1. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Depends who your other defenders are, I'd be inclined to save transfer this GW if you can start 3

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Can start Alonso Friend and Evans all have some doubt then have Ake and Holgate not looking great

        1. TLF
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          AOA ? I'd hold transfers for now and wait for injury news/team updates.

    Fonte handing a transfer request in.....who has he been linked with?

    1. Lucky_Z
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      ManUtd if I am not mistaken. Will play upon his compatriot.

      1. Syd.
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        I don;t think that Utd are interested in him

        Maybe Liverpool
