Another Gameweek, another Harry Kane blank.
As covered in Sunday’s Knee Jerk, it wasn’t supposed to be like this, so in this week’s Technical Area we’ll be digging through the rubble of another disappointing weekend at Wembley and dissecting exactly what seems to be ailing Spurs – and in particular their talismanic forward.
The numbers just don't add up for Kane. Gotta feel it's going to come full circle with the start of September looming, regardless of their opposition. However, I am having a very difficult time, potential moving him out for someone like Morata, who would join Firmino and Jesus up front. Not on Lukaku, don't like how he has looked the last 2 weeks and feel I can run without him for the time being. Yet seeing him at -97.3 on FPL Statistics and the possibility of a 0.2 drop over the international break doesn't bode well. It would still allow me to pick up who I wanted, but we all know Kane is going to get his and much like Sanchez last year, you want to own him when he hits...and hits big.
Lukaku missed a pen, had 6 attempts (4 in the box 3 on target) and created 2 chances vs Leicester. Lets not pretend he played badly now..
I brought him in for Jesus last week with the same thoughts but wish I hadn't, better a week late etc.
For moment he doesn't look like dropping in prize
Jesus, Chic, Francis
To
Morata, Firmino, Mbemba
-8?
That looks good...
The 3 you are taking out could easily get more points next GW
Putting it out there. But i thank now is the time to put hazard in. I reckon him and morata will be great together. And at 10.5 imo thats cheap cause i can only see his value going up. Plus i reckon after international break he'l get some game time against leciester. And i can only see him doin well
Too early
What will be more punishing rank wise?
a) Kane hatrick if you don't own him
b) Lukaku goal / brace if you don't own him
B.
A
B, probably even if it's just 1 goal
I think theres a good chance Kane blanks next week not for a lack of shots from Kane, but because Everton are just so damned defensive. They showed vs City that they aren't afraid to play an extremely defensive lineup (5 at the back with 3 defensive mids) and they almost won the game there. It seems likely to me that they'll employ similar tactics vs Spurs, a team who might especially struggle since their only real source of pace in the team is Son.
Problem is though a haul vs Swansea is a real possibility so if I sell Kane I'd want him back for that.
Nonsense opposition, form and tactics have no influence on Harry's output,
Looks like with him its all about time of the year, moons phase & fairy dust.
That may also be the case
All his previous goals were fluke luck, every one.
Do you play T.Carroll (NEW) or Lowe (whu) this coming GW?
Dont own Lowe, but i would play Carroll
Lowe
TC
I ask for opinion once more.
Pick one please
A. Richarlison
B. Mooy + 0.4
I responded to the last one, and really, my opinion is all you should really need 😎
I'm convinced 😉
B.

Fixtures are the same as they were when we analysed in pre season. The likes of Saints, Hudds, Man Utd are still quite favourable.
Surely better off holding the WC until the next break when Chelsea and Arsenal and Everton etc now have those fixtures?
Best rule for WC is just use it when you need it. Simple as that imo
+1
That's true, but there are shades of 'need it', like replacing three players because the WC is about to run out, or an entire squad of 15. You can think you need it one week and wish you hadn't used it, or the other way around.
Completely agree, unless your team is a mess. For example I have Kola and Redmond. If I were to WC I would probably get rid, but both could do very well next gameweek and people will be scrambling to get them in.
Yup, last week would have been a disaster for me (Lacazette and Kola) if I didn't have Lowe coming off the bench, but I'm holding steady. I don't want to drop Lacazette, but the impending drop and Wenger's teamsheets are scaring me.
The fact that Arsenal did so badly without him helps a lot. Imagine if they had won comfortably! Vindication for Kola and Laca owners, I hope... 🙂
You'll be fine. He is captaincy material next few. Wenger has to start him after that uproar
I have Kola and Tadic which is the same debate. At least I know Tadic completely runs out of use around gw6 when I will likely WC. Likewise big scramble for Liverpool players, yet they're away to City. Happy to hold.
I think a lot of the performances so far have been backed up by good fixtures and 2 home games.
Manchester United, Liverpool, Southampton (Defensively), Huddersfield and WBA (Defensively) have generally done well, but that was sort of expected when the fixture list came out.
It seems to me that a lot of people are wildcarding to bring in a lot of players who had a considerably higher expected score between GW1 and 3 than 4 and 6.
Would you get Pogba or Mkhi on WC?
Mkhi for me.
I went for Pogba.
Both?
Mkhi if had to choose
I'm a Micky owner but I think I would opt for Pogba actually. Plays 90 minutes and takes more shots
Pogs, chance he even may get pens from Lukaku, more nailed-looked great v LEI - although at prices be tempted to get both-especially if you don't have big Rom
Choose one...
a) Lanzini
b) Richarlison
Also would you consider any Arsenal players on WC?
Lacazette maybe?
Kolasinac will come good, I think, concerned about everyone else without exception.
Arsenal fan and I recommend you to avoid for now,monitor what happens in the transfer window.
No way lol
Think Laca is still a wait and see-needs a committed AS in the side I think and then with fixtures could be a great pick
Still could see Ramsey being a option in a few weeks but wouldn't get him now
Absolutely clueless. Been away for the weekend, what should I do? Feel like the team is falling apart a bit...
Foster Elliot
Davies Jones Stephens Mee Hunemeier
Eriksen Mane Willian Carroll Fraser
Kane Lukaku Gabbi
I feel like Kane needs to go to upgrade Fraser maybe... Gabbi as well?
That's a very decent team. Keep Gabbi for Watford. Keep Kane too. Just sell Fraser.
The points are going elsewhere though. Kane doing terrible, mkhi/pogba getting all the points.
Looking at possible Stoke / Huddersfield defender rotation
Lowe / Wimmer could be gold
STK : MUN -232 new -180 CHE -334 SOU -53 mci -475 BOU 106 wat -37 LEI 164
HUD : whm -53 LEI 120 bur -134 TOT -422 swa -47 MUN -275 liv -550 WBA 4
I wouldn't. 🙂
How many points do you have to average per week for a top 1k finish?
I'm thinking around 55 pre captaincy.
63
Just over 2300 last season was 11k, so.. 2450? / 38 = 64-65....
This will serve as a useful placeholder until someone comes back with actual data 😉
Top 100 out of the window already?
Still extremely confident of it but most on here aim for top 10k or 1k so may have numbers at hand. From that I can calculate top 100.
We're counting on you. No slacking.
Thanks mate
I had 62,8 last season and rank 1226. (57,4 GW1-19 and 71,2 GW20-38 when the chips ticked in)
So I wouldnt panic if around 57 average before Christmas. I was rank 133k GW15.
Edit: It was 54,4 average GW1-19 and still close to 1k at the end
Davies likely to play next games? Any sign of Rose take his place or some other? Im getting him or Naughton in this week.
YES
No sign of rose whatsoever. Anyway, once he's off the physio table he then has to get himself out of the doghouse.
Cant decide whether to purchace lossl or foster.
Foster looks good for cleanies vs lower teams. But as we witnessed last year lossl could well likely outscore that every week with save points. Plus they are holding their own in defence atm anyway
Overall check?
Stuck at 2m 🙁
WC activated.
1.2 mil.
40k with 200 points, WC not yet.
3.1m, probably the worst here lol
Holding the WC?
2 weeks in a row with a score well under the average so I used it now
Any ideas here?
Foster, Elliot
Davies, Jones, Mee, Cedric, Suttner
Eriksen, Mane, Mkhi, Silva, Fabregas
Lukaku, Firmino, Quaner
Play 3-5-2(Davies, Jones and Cedric) or 4-4-2(+Mee, bench Fabregas)?
First formations looks better to me.
Anything else?
confused on the next move(s)...2FT and 0m
Forster -- Elliot
Valencia Bertrand Dawson --- Mee crane
Kdb Ritchie Willian Mkhi -- Carroll
Kane Kaku Mounie
A: KDB + Mounie + Kane >> Eriksen + Firmino + Morata (-4)
B: KDB + Willian + Kane >> Eriksen + Mane + Morata (-4)
C: KDB >> Mane/Salah and roll over FT...as spurs/liv/city have tough fixtures in gw4
D: something else? kdb+mounie >> redmond + firmino?
A, but leave door open to get back Kane soon.
1) Kane and Firmino
2) Lukaku and Jesus
Tough one. Gun to my head-1 will pay off more long term
1
!
1 over the long term. You'd ideally like to have 3 of the 4
I have 2 now but will jump on Kane on WC as soon as...
Need to WC? Not enough with 2 transfers?
Bench one:
A) T. Carroll
B) Naughton
C) Atsu
atsu
A - I have the same problem but with Mbemba instead of Atsu.
Has the Vardy bandwagon crashed and burned? Am still looking at getting him GW5.
monitoring
Swansea have amazing fixtures. Naughton essential. 😉
Is Antonio still a good option? Those fixtures look great
Confidence is shot after three away fixtures starting with a trip to Old Trafford. I knew it would be. The Hammers are the ultimate confidence team. It will take a couple of GWs for them to recover.
I've been told to change the name of my H2H league. How does one do that? Couldn't find the info on the official page. Cheers!
I don't think you can
They've changed the name to "change name". So it seems that it's possible.
Found it. Cheers
I see. New info to me. Cheers.
Leagues, options on the right of your screen. Then administer. Maybe only possible if you're prompted to do it.
Mee or Naughton?
Naughton
Naughton if Swansea doesn't bring in a new right back. Wait until the window closes.
Naughton
Best 5.5 midfielder?
Atsu? Brady?
Time to sell Gross...
I like the look of Brady.
Agree. Thanks!
Got 0.5 mill in the bank and 1 FT, need to get rid of Fraser at 5.4. What's the options?
Mooy?
Naughton or Nyom? Need to act tonight, Dann will drop...
Cheers
Naughton
What do you think about my front 8?
Hazard, Pogba, Eriksen, Salah, Rlc, Lukaku, Firmino, Chicharito
Looks good. 2 Qs - is it a bit early for Hazard? And do you have a Kane plan?
I think eden will be fit for leicester. Yes, I do have Kane plan but also think it will not bee essential to bring him back
