There’s just a single Gameweek 26 fixture on Sunday’s menu as Tottenham Hotspur entertain Stoke City in the 1.30pm kick off.

Harry Kane, Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli boast the main goal threat for the hosts as Maurico Pochettino names the same XI that started against Genk in midweek – an indication that Spurs will line up in a 3-4-2-1 set-up.

Snapped up by over 96,000 FPL managers last week, Kane was the sixth most captained player in the Gameweek – he’s bagged four goals in his last two at the Lane and fired a hat-trick against Fulham in the FA Cup last weekend.

Eriksen, meanwhile, has delivered double-figures in four of his last six home appearances in the league and served up a goal and assist on Thursday evening.

Alli has managed attacking returns in four of his previous six at the Lane but was still subject to more sales (66,000+) than any player without a Gameweek 26 fixture.

Meanwhile, Fantasy managers have the chance to do some early scouting on Stoke’s main men ahead of a potential double Gameweek 27.

Should Man City progress past Huddersfield on Wednesday night and confirm the double, the likes of Peter Crouch and Marko Arnautovic could find their way into our short-term plans.

    I know it's tough reflex wise, but Forster has to get a touch on that and keep it out. Right through his hands and just over his head.

      The speed the ball came off it head. Nah...

      Forster was poor with the free kick, cant believe a keeper his size didnt get a touch on the third.

    Fake result

      How's that working? It's the score 🙂 If you wish it was different then just say 'I wish it was different'.

    Guys, any advice with 1 FT & 2m itb?

    Grant
    Coleman / Alonso / Walker
    Alli / Mane / Philips / Zaha
    Lukaku / Kane / Ibra
    (Pickford / Fletcher / Brunt / Amat)

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

      Kane/ibra + Alli - kun + sterling

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

        Got similar team....

        Def doing kane to ibra....

        Maybe alli to sterling for a hit.

  10. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Ibra looks injured

    1. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      He's 35. Played a very intense game after and FA cup game a few days ago. What do you expect

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

      Has scared me 3 times in this match. Went down each time and it looked bad, but was back up and running after.

  11. Holmes
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Fellaini OG incoming...

  12. David Davros
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Keep one of Alli and Eriksen:

    A) Alli

    B) Eriksen

    C) Nothing in it

    1. DR0GBA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      B

    2. MR SUNSHINE
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Would say Eriksen. Has freekicks and is an assist whore

    3. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      B

  13. Debauchy

    Said it once , say it again, Big up to Southampton !
    Lose there best players every season and come up fighting, without fail.

    Probs on a budget 1/50 of that of MU ,
    Feel for Saints supporters this evening

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Linesman has cost them today.

      1. Syd.
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Forster was the main culprit

        He was shocking

        1. Debauchy
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah , was very good last season, this season not so good

      2. George Sillett
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Bad day yet again for potential game changing decisions.

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

      My concern is about their PL table. 13th is okay, but if they lose more players this Summer and don't fully replace them (which I don't think they have), it's going to get more and more precarious.

      1. Debauchy
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        3 years in a row best players have been filched, they stand up every time . must be some great spirit in those parts

  14. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Is Costa to Gabbiadini worth a hit?

  15. Syd.
    • 17 Years

    Undeserved

  16. AA33

    Lucky united, linesman should go up to hold the trophy up with the team

  18. Yank Revolution

    We're back baby...

    1. Sweetboi

      Officials back on your side, it's over for the rest.

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Such hate--- that's the game, bud...calls go as they go....

  19. Epic Fail
    • 16 Years

    Mickey Mouse cup. They should be ashamed to win it.

    1. Win'dian
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      More ashamed should be those who couldn't even make it 🙂

  20. Syd.
    • 17 Years

    Will Mourhino admit it was a fake result

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

      Like hell will he. Mourhino is a Banker end of.

  21. Please Help I Don't Kn…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    I'm gonna do Phillips to King for a -4, then next weekend I'll do Stanislas for Chadli. Good idea?

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

      Wait Phillips' scan, but looks good.

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

    Ibra looks dead. I'd rest him for BOU and play Jones as a striker.

  23. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Ref should be sacked, abysmal calls, denies saints on side goal and assist for man u third provided by player that should've been sent off

    1. Epic Fail
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Ref can't be responsible for the offside tbf.

      1. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Yes, we should blame Ian Duncan Smith for that.

    2. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Goal was not Offside. That was shocking
      But rest I think balanced out. If Herrera should be off so should romeu

  24. Leaf

    Uniteds first team wins the reserve team cup !

  25. Business Cat

    Rooney to do a John Terry?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I'm not sure his team mate's wives would want him.

  26. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Imagine if Utd do the treble of Mickey Mouse cups

  27. Pep says
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    How hungry is Ibra going to be against Bournemouth?

    1. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Like Wayne Shaw in Greggs...ravenous

  28. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    What an underserved victory. A win to the Southampton players would have meant everything, Pogba will probably just post something cr*p on social media and forget about it. So annoying

    1. Somalion

  29. La Roja

    Just when Manu was looking vulnerable, he takes Gabbiadini off

    Knob

  30. Sweetboi

    Phillip Neville talking nonsense.

      You seem surprised.
