Dugout Discussion – Spurs vs Swansea

Saturday’s action concludes at Wembley Stadium as Tottenham Hotspur entertain Swansea City in the 5.30pm kick-off.

All eyes are on Harry Kane after he scored twice in each of his last two appearances for the north London outfit over the last few days.

Over 20% of FPL managers have handed him the armband this week – second, once again, to Romelu Lukaku’s 30% backers.

Kane was handed the armband by 17 of the top 100 heading into Gameweek 5, while team-mates Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli were selected by nine and seven of that elite group respectively.

All three start along with Heung-Min Son but Mauricio Pochettino sorely disappoints the 345,000+ who drafted in Ben Davies by benching the Welshman against his former side.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Kane and lukaku to aguero and morata and extra 2.5m could be great. Think there won't be much in the difference points wise between these two partnerships. The extra money well spent though on mid could make it gold

            Might not be on them with many good options in the Utd team to take them, despite today kun should be on pens,

    Elliot
    Cedric Trippier Lowe
    Salah Alli Antonio Carroll
    Kane Lukaku Abraham

    Subs: Foster, Yoshida, RLC, Dann

    1 FT & 2.1 ITB. Feel the defence now needs addressed due to doubts over players playing and bad fixtures. Tempted to take a hit just to clean it up. Also want Antonio out.

    Dann > Kolasinac
    Yoshida > Jones

    This leaves 0.9 so I could do Antonio to Silva later.
