White Hart Lane is our first port of call in a Sunday that is set to shape many of our Gameweeks.

As expected, Harry Kane leads the line for the hosts again after shrugging off a minor knock in time to entertain Everton. The Tottenham frontman has been handed the armband by 5.6% of Fantasy Premier League managers on the back of seven goals in his last three home outings.

Five double-figure hauls in seven in front of his own supporters suggests that Christian Eriksen will have a major say in the outcomes of today’s 1.30pm encounter, whilst Dele Alli was back in the goals after Mauricio Pochettino returned to a 3-4-2-1 set-up against Stoke last time out.

Perhaps surprisingly, Romelu Lukaku is also backed by 5.6% for Sunday’s early fixture despite failing to score in each of his last four road trips.

Up against a defence with a single goal against in their previous seven at the Lane, his prospects of points perhaps took a turn for the worse after both Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen recovered from knocks to take their place in an unchanged Spurs XI.

    All we need now is aguero to be benched and the devastation will be complete.

    Coleman or Romelu to ruin this CS and we're laughing!

    Barkley needs to be subbed, he's not seeing obvious passes

    No Kane is killing me
    Have a slender advantage over a dead team in my ML. Friend will overtake me because of Kane(c).

    Sold Alli kept Eriksen. Thats one that was gonna go wrong no matter what i did, given the season im having.

    1. Pigsinblankets
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Eriksen might still get something. Gone close twice and you know Kane will get that hatty...

    Everton look so bad

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      that leaves me with 0.00 in the bank

          the way it's going Kane'll get multiple goals NEXT week too!!!

    3. Chris_H

      If we had the same choice again we'd still have sold Kane over Ibra/Lukaku

      No point beating yourselves up

    4. Arctic monkeys

      Can' understand why Barkely didn't pass to Baines. Odd player

    5. Point-one short

      Is a Lukaku or Coleman goal too much to ask for?

      1. TheSteel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        It might be. They look poor

        I was literally about to post this.

        With Miarallas coming on maybe Everton create a few chances, they need a spark the game is gone dead.

    6. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years

      Mirallas and McCarthy coming on

      Need that Spurs cleanse gone. My ML leader is on for a 4 digit gameweek rank 🙁

      Role with the punches lads. I sold Kane for Kun and kept Ibra. Wasn't really a choice to sell Ibra at home to Bournmouth. Should have scored but didn't. Can't win them all. Let's just hope Kun does well.

      1. Lav
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah had Kane but have not had him for weeks. Dead ML team only doing good because of Kane(c) every week. At least he will fall next week due to blanks.

        Nah hindsight isn't it. Spose Kane had the form, but then all the big hitters did to a degree!

        ronka kept kane and sold ibra

      Why didn't Lukaku start?

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years

        Rested for next week as expected.

      2. Duffy Dunk
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        rested for gw28

      3. Fred54

        Clashed with a grime gig. 😉

    10. Pigsinblankets
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Sold Alli and kept Philips. Sane better do the business.

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Could you afford Philips>Sane?

        1. Pigsinblankets
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Yep, that's what makes it worse! But thought Philips vs Palace and with a gw28 fixture was worth hanging on to...

          1. Royal5
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Ouch. Hopefully he's fit for next week. Annoyed owner myself.

      Yep sold Alli and he assists

      Would it be bad to WC after GW28?

      People who still play in ML already used it.

      i have ibra lukaku and llorente, would you take a -8 to get kane in for llorente after the blank GW? or just get him in GW30 for free

      Llorente has nice fixtures and has hit a bit of form but kanes killing me in the ML

      Koeman being touted for the next Arsenal or Barca manager

      The people who make these stories up must work for Donald Trump

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

        He's a realistic appointment for either of those two, a class manager, look how far he's taken this everton team.

      2. Somalion
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Bit of clever work involved too.

        De Boer's brother who is assistant manager at Ajax A1 mentioned that he had heard his brother was linked with the Barca job but said they were already aware that Barcelona wanted Koeman.

        Why? Because Frank De Boer could do with a move to Everton 😉

      Lookman, probably one of their most dangerous players last few games stays on the bench
