After United saw off Middlesbrough at the Riverside, we now make our way to White Hart Lane as Tottenham Hotspur entertain Southampton in the 2.15pm kick-off.

Devoid of the injured Harry Kane, Mauricio Pochettino has turned to Son Heung-Min to lead the line after the South Korean racked up three goals and an assist in last Sunday’s 6-0 FA Cup thrashing of Millwall.

Snapped up by over 132,000 Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of yesterday’s deadline, Dele Alli is the most captained player from this one – 1.5% have handed him the armband on the back of ten goals in the last 11 Gameweeks.

With five double-figure hauls in his last eight home outings, though, Christian Eriksen looks just as vital if the home side are to prevail without their star striker.

With the Saints set to play 11 times in the remaining nine Gameweeks, today’s match gives us an early scouting opportunity.

Up top, Manolo Gabbiadini is a man in demand after firing six goals in four appearances across all competitions since arriving in the winter transfer window.

Despite facing two blanks in the last three Gameweeks, the Italian has still risen 0.4 in price ahead of back-to-back home clashes with Bournemouth and Crystal Palace.

The new striker’s arrival has allowed Dusan Tadic and Nathan Redmond to flourish since Claude Puel switched to a 4-2-3-1 formation, with the pair providing 22 and 17 points respectively over their last two league appearances.

      I'm guessing he just picked it up because he was closest. He ran after the ball 🙂

      1. Hobolicious
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Most likely will get the next one as well seeing he scored though. At least until Kane is back.

      Its your turn son

    • Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Son, Eriksen on pens they said. Alli on pens they never said.

      1. Bazzalona
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        I thought Son to be fair.
        When they had one v City without Kane it was Son v Lamela for who took it.
        Alli wasn't in the equation.
        Not complaining like!

      2. Garlana
        • 11 Years

        Maybe whoever got it had priority?

        I like the way you've written this. It could have sounded complainy, instead very funny.

    • Danstoke82
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

    • Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      So my defence of Yoshi, Mawson and Pieters doing really well this week

      1. timski8000
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        To be fair...you have a poor defence.

      2. Sebbo29
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Ouch

      3. fiveyears
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Were those really the best options?

    • Ravager
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Was moaning about Eriksen scoring when I owned him before the doubles but happy that Alli is on pens now.

    • borat
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Will alli get 8pts for a goal and assist plz

      1. Ravager
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        No sir

        1. borat
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Lol. Was just joking sir. Would have been perfect if that would have happened

    • Venom Snake
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      That was a terrible penalty

      1. Ógie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Agreed

      2. Pasqualinho
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Didn't look overly confident, did it? But it was good enough.

    • Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Spurs treble up an option? Alli, Eriksen, Son? Then you also get 3 CS points if they don't concede 🙂

      1. Colonel Klink
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        I'm thinking about this, especially if I'm looking to sell Sanchez. Have two of the three already.

    • Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Gabbiadini looking ok or injured?

      1. Ravager
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        He walked off at least. Gotta wait for news I reckon

      2. Lav
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Injured I guess

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

        Groin injury

      4. MTPockets
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Not ok.

        • Moin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          He's off, hopefully gets a rest during international break and comes back stronger

        • RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          He signalled the groin was teared apart

      5. Garlana
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        All this deliberation on who to get out of Alli, Sanchez and eriksen looked pointless...If anything getting Sanchez over these two could be costly.

      6. Viprin
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        BAMIDELEEEEE

      7. Jafooli

        1. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Nope ?

      8. Lav
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        No Alli but have Eriksen

        Its whatever

        Real bummer about Gabbi getting injured. Looked s*** hot.
