The Gameweek begins with what could be the key fixture as Spurs – the major source of Fantasy talent right now – host Bournemouth at White Hart Lane.

Over the past week, Fantasy managers have doubtless been scrambling to fill their three Spurs slots, with the focus switching to their buoyant attack.

Despite Dele Alli’s recent successes – with five goals in his last six Gameweeks – Harry Kane returns up front and now becomes the headline act.

Owned by just 13.2% of FPL managers ahead of today’s encounter, Kane is unlikely to remain such a differential in the coming Gameweeks, providing us with an early opportunity to cash in.

Meanwhile, in defence, Kyle Walker makes his return at right-back with an unfortunate Kieran Trippier making way. Walker was the most sold defender heading into today’s deadline, shedding 98,000+ owners but is still part of more than 33.9% of squads.

For Bournemouth, Josh King is undoubtedly the major threat. He’ll likely feature on many FPL benches today, although having already returned goals at Old Trafford and Anfield, he appears to have the fixture proof status to punish such a decision.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Spurs love a 4-0 at home on Saturday lunch time. Think that's 3 in a row now

    1. Revival

      Stoke game was a Sunday 1.30 pm kickoff

      1. Pep says
        • 10 Years

        WBA Watford Bournemouth

    Lukaku with just the one goal please

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      That would be one too many for me.

  3. Pierce34
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    We need a chip that doubles the number of player we can choose from one team. Kane, Alli, Eriksen, Vertonghen, Son and Davies would look good in my team.

  4. Ravager
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Think I'm WC'ing this week and probably keeping 3 Spurs

    Currently on Walker, Alli and Kane...would you switch that around?

  5. Dušan Citizen
    • 12 Years

    Any chance Eriksen to get 1 bonus?

    So unlucky not to score or atleast assist one more...

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      He deserves it but unlikely

        1. laGan1n1
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Eriksen, Alli and Kane TC

          • 16 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          No, probably just baps, Son, King and Alli.

    Hoping for a Lukaku red card as an owner but non captainer. Selling him to Ibra this week anyway

    1. Jay_
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Same.

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years

      Ohh I won't be doing that. West Ham!!

    3. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔

      Same

    4. Brap.
      • 9 Years

      Can you imagine any situation where Lukaku puts the effort in required to get a red?

      1. Stupendous

  9. GHB

    3 Spurs players just isn't enough

  10. LeicesterA
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    I know I probably should be happy but I just wish could have grabbed 7-8 more points in that and he could have.

    ML rivals didn't have him and I went C. It was one of my only chances to bridge at 50+ point gap 🙁

    1. BobBradleysOpportunity
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      as a ML leader all my rivals went Kane C and i don't even own him, i kept son instead, chuffed to only lose 10-14 odd points with Kaku C in the bag

  11. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Why didn't that eriksen to kane goal happen? 🙁 12 points missed out on

  12. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    If Pottechino stays. Triple Spurs attack from gw1 onwards

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Nope, they'll be playing at Wembley.

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      No chance. 38 away games, I won't have any Spurs player.

    3. MTPockets
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Will be so expensive though.

  13. dark91
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Boruc made 10 saves, this could have ended 7-0 at least

    1. Alnair
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Yep, this was the most non-captainers/jinxers could've hoped for.

  14. Lizard Lips
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Kane awful defending to allow goal and returns 24 points instead of 10, Jaansen misses sitter and great defending to clear to deny Davies returns. Swap the defending around and Kane gets 10 Davies 12 and finally some luck as it is it's 24 vs 6 instead of 10 vs 12, and 18 point swing.

    1. Whazza
      • 14 Years

      Eat a snickers.

    2. Ravager
      • 11 Years

      You put some thought into this.

      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      ? Eriksen was on for 2 at HT, what did Son do in the 2nd half to jump him - Eriksen ran the midfield 2nd half.

    3. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
      • 10 Years

      1. tm245
        • 14 Years

    1. Evasivo
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I wish I'd triple captained Kane, but too much of a gamble at the time

  20. tm245
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    The reason we loaded up on Spurs is that Bournemouth are awful at defending, so why moan about the awful Bournemouth defending?

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Doubt anyone loading up on Boro attack next week do

    2. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
      • 9 Years

      +1

  21. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    32 from 4 before bonus, hoping or a Lukaku blank and Sanchez to punish his sellers

  22. Evasivo
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Just got in, any shockers in the 3pm lineups?

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years

      No

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Andy Carroll starting.

    3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Leicester play strong team

    4. Evasivo
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Lol, great. Thanks

  23. Sánchez
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    My rival has this unbelievable ability to get returns from almost every single player every week. Really annoying. No idea how I'm still actually keeping up with him.

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      If that was the case he would be world no 1

      1. Sánchez
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Not if he messes up the captain

  24. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Can't believe it.
    I actually got a walker clean sheet.
    Awesome.

    1. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      he wont start next gw

      trippier will play

  25. Lizard Lips
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Bavies denied 5 points there, assist and 2 BPs. Thanks Jaansen and thanks incredible block on line 🙁

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      It was going wide, janssen is awful

    2. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Probably would have got the 3. It about 12 BPS for an assist?

      1. MTPockets
        9 years, 3 months ago

        9

  26. tm245
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    No Lukaku.

    Time to go do yardwork for a few hours...

  27. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Davies on 29 BPS. Most provably would have got the 3 bonus if had assisted there. Gutting.

  28. Messiah Hazard
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    40 (-8) from Kane(c), Alli and Son. Will take that.

    Kaku, please blank this week.

  29. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Is Kane likely to keep 3 baps?

    1. Evasivo
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      For sure

  30. rnrd
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Who assisted Janssen ?

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Lukaku

    2. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Boruc

    3. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      He did not convert earlier Bavies pass so no assist

    4. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Boruc

    5. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      *Should* have been Davies if he hasn't had messed the initial shot up...

    6. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Bavies gave him the ball but Janssen shot and it came back to him, before he scored. No assist!
