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

    Tottenham.

    Victim of UCL fatigue?

    I think so.

    Worrying for the next couple months.

        For some reason wembley is seen as being more tiring than most grounds, maybe there something in it

        1. Pompel
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          Isn't it a bit larger than other grounds. Think that could be enough, actually

      feels unfair that those who played on wed night play sat and tuesday nighters get to play on sunday

      Poor tactics, lack of team speed, lack of a breakdown type ball handler (kyrie Irving).

      Liverpool too it looks like

    5. The Mandalorian

      8 years, 10 months ago

      Spurs cannot get enough players in the box I already pointed this out at the start of the season hence I went Kaku over Kane, they will under perform at home and wanted the pitch made smaller but the FA refused them.

    Davies owner, put Naughton second on bench as thought Swansea were gonna get smashed, would hurt less if I'd had a better gameweek but swings and roundabouts because others are getting Holebas -2 off the bench, would have made the same decision if given the chance to make it again.

    1. Luca Toni
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I have only 10 players playing this week assuming Baily and Lukaku both play..

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        I'm sure they will but ouch!

    2. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years

      Of course. These things happen.

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        They sure do, still frustrating when they bite you but that's fpl for you

    This website is too easy 😎

      If only FPL was.

    2. @persecuted_by_mods

      Fantasy football? Clocked it

    3. Luca Toni

      Whats your team link .

  4. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Smooth?

    Pogba to Silva because I couldn't afford anyone else.

    Sets me up nicely for the CPL massacre too.

    1. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Nice.

    2. Nascimento
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Think most of us did the same

      1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Nice 🙂

    3. drughi
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Silva on the bench against palace is possible

      1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Captain Silva.

        90, 90, 90, 90(?)...

        Nailed.

        1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          I mean he's man city's captain. I won't captain him

  5. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Which combo looks best?
    A) Firmino-Salah-Hegazi-Naughton
    B) Firmino-Ritchie-Mendy-Kolasinac
    C) Abraham-Salah-Mendy-Bellerin
    D) Abraham-Salah-Ritchie-Mendy

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      B

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Firmino over Salah?

      2. Emmicson
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        B, But I will rather Walker than Mendy

        1. ★Kuntheman★
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          Mendy less risk of rotation

    2. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      B.

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Firmino over Salah? That's what I'm having difficulty coping with, but B looks the most well rounded.

        1. Beavis
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          I just wouldn't wanna have Abraham.

          1. ★Kuntheman★
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 10 months ago

            Fair point. Good fixtures coming up but Swansea look dreadful.

    3. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      B

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Overwhelming B response, it's gonna be hard to drop Salah but that's the most balance one no doubt

  6. A Betting Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Lossl / Elliot
    Alonso / Davies / Jones / Lowton / Mbemba
    Alli / Mkhi / Tadic / Richarlison / Chalobah
    Kane / Lukaku / Chicharito

    £0 ITB, 2 FTs

    Chicharito, Tadic & Richarlison > Joselu, Salah & Loftus Cheek?

    Salah & Joselu look to outscore Chicharito & Tadic by a country mile, and Loftus Cheek would rotate quite well with my Burnley defender, and he looks threatening. Just feels inflexible going with 2 4.5ers in the middle. And I maybe want Ritchie over Joselu.

    Thoughts guys?

  7. Carpe Diem
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    You think you've had it rough? Strap in and listen to my tale of woe.

    Owned Jesus for the first two GWs. Two 1 pointers, had enough when he was subbed off at half time at Everton after a poor display. Thought he'd lose favor with Guardiola. Aguero was looking sharp in that game, got into some great positions. Got him in for Jesus for a -4.

    GW3, Aguero got benched, Jesus started and scored.

    With Kane (4 pts in 3) back then and Aguero stinking up my side, I wildcarded to get Aguero out. Wouldn't you know it, he has 4 goals and 2 assists in 2 games since.

    Kane then decides to score two braces in a row, and I scramble and suck it up to take a -4 to bring him as my captain for this GW.

    1. Totalfootball
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      WOW

    2. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Be more patient.

    3. @persecuted_by_mods
      8 years, 10 months ago

      So you'll sit tight for this week then? Keep calm and keep Kane C

      1. Carpe Diem
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Yes, I'm standing tight now. Not going anywhere near City despite the hype after this massacre.

    4. Luca Toni
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Jesus was subbed in that game because of Red Card rather than poor display .. this small info would have saved lots of bad tales for you .

      1. Carpe Diem
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        I was watching that game on MNF, he was having a shocker. Was subbed off for Sterling, another attacking player.

    5. Emmicson
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Take the Chill Pill Bro!

  8. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Is it madness to sell Lukaku for a hit?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Today it is.

    2. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Ask Andy how he feels.

    3. Toby Lerone
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      a hit for who?

    4. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Yes.

    5. Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      hard to say. They away at Southamptn and Aguero will have the armband. His capt score could make 4 points look like chicken feed

    6. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      But he has not played yet so yes would be madness to do now.

    7. Soapy
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Yep. Saints didn't look very solid today

    8. Emmicson
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I Got rid of him after the PK Miss, I Havent looked back since.

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        That the other thing, is he even on penalties?

  9. Deicide
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    So:

    Pogba to Silva or
    Pogba to Grob and Firminho to Aguero/Gjesus?

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I'd go for Atsu or maybe Brady.

      Gross was lucky. Brighton look poor in attack. Just my two cents.

      But definitely Pogba to one of them and Aguero

    2. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Atsu and Kun.

    3. Deicide
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Thanks guys

    4. Emmicson
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Brady and Jesus. Forget today's pts, 1 Jesus is better value 2 Is a Confirmed Starter 3 He will Respond to Aguero's Goals sooner rather than later

  10. sully29
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Brady owners happy to keep with him?

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Well he got an assist. So he can survive a couple weeks. Atsu and Gross look like replacements if he starts to flunk it.

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Yes

    3. Big P
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Naughty fixture up next..

    4. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Yes, great value for a 5.5m mid

    5. Belalugozi78
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      yeah.. I'm keeping. At least 3 more weeks.

  11. Pompel
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Knee-strap didn't hold, how about this to try to cover todays City points before WC'ing GW7 otr GW8:

    A) Firmino + Atsu -> Aguero + RLC
    or
    B) Firmino + Alliu -> Agüero + Silva(Mkhi?)

    yes I know, but still tempted

    1. Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I would for sure. Something up with Alli and Firmino not even a proper striker

      1. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        for a -4 , forgot to say. Ofc there's the option to activate WC later in the week
        Would you go Silva or Mkhi - or someone else like Ramsey or Gross?

  12. El Putin de Aguadas
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Why they didn't gave Tadic the assist today? it was a clear rebound

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

      It was a cross

      1. El Putin de Aguadas
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        i tough it was an attempt of goal

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

          If it was shot it would have been an asisst - I've not seen it back and think there was some speculation but FPL deemed it a cross.

        2. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 17 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          Nah, off target if the case.

    2. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      It was a cross.

  13. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    Why do people keep saying City have better fixtures than United?

    City's next two: CRY che
    United's next two: sou CRY

    Lukaku has better fixtures than Aguero. It's only after these two weeks that the fixtures turn ugly for Lukaku.

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

      Why would they be only looking at two fixtures?

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Why not? If you want Aguero, get him after these 2 weeks. Why get him when he has worse fixtures?

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

          Aguero's a better player than Lukaku. I agree that those two fixtures favour Man Utd but I still fancy Aguero will score more if Pep doesn't hold him back

          1. Cok3y5murf
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 10 months ago

            We've known this fact all season yet you come up with it just because he scored a hattie

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

              You are a moron. Aguero has been better than Lukaku for a long time.

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
      8 years, 10 months ago

      But why arbitrarily cut it off at two gameweeks

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
        8 years, 10 months ago

        I get your point though as the transfers they are making are for the immediate future

      2. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Because people are making the transfer now. When they should be thinking about doing it after 2 weeks

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
          8 years, 10 months ago

          Well in that case what they should do is transfer in aguero for lukaku when he has palace at home then reverse it for lukaku who has palace and then back to aguero again

          1. Cok3y5murf
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 10 months ago

            Lol. You just can't use FTs like that. You get just 35 a season. Plus you will always have something else to do in your team that week. Can't pre-plan them like that.

            1. @persecuted_by_mods
              8 years, 10 months ago

              Well you have your answer why people are making the move now then, Aguero is the better player and they might have other fires to put out in two weeks time

    3. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years

      Liverpool away isn't ugly.

      1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        For an attacker at least

      2. Nascimento
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Who's playing Liverpool away? What is going on here?

        1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 10 months ago

          Man utd in 3 weeks. Just past the two week cut off...

    4. Luca Toni
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      People are saying long term

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        So do it after 2 weeks. Wow!

    5. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Probably looking at more than two fixtures.

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        less more like. They just looking at next week

      2. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Look at it after those two then. Why set yourself up for lower points for the next two?

    6. TheTwelfthMan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      People tend to not see beyond the next GW.

    7. Toby Lerone
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      aguero always scores against chelsea

    8. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      I think people are afraid of Missing out on Agueros (C) potential next week.. I have Kane Morata and firminho for next week.. none of Them are looking like a solid captain option

      1. Pieterke30
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 10 months ago

        Kane is a very good C option next week

  14. StayoutheSpiceZone

    I tell u who has been useless this season - Dele

  15. Big P

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years

    • 9 Years
    8 years, 10 months ago

    You just know the way this season's been going MCI-CPL will end up a 0-0.

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 10 months ago

      Pep will drop one of Jesus or Kun imo

    2. Luca Toni

    WC has to be played imo. Team looks good on paper but when the points roll in I always end up with a red arrow, and I can't deal with it anymore. I know I'm better than a 2.2m rank and it's just not good enough..

    Here's the team:

    Foster / Myhill
    Valencia Stephens Daniels / Suttner Hunemeier
    Eriksen Alli Ramsey Ritchie / Carroll
    Kane Lukaku Abraham

    My TV is also so low that I'm going sub 100m TV. Another 2 drops tonight if I don't WC

    Thoughts?

      Not too bad a team in my opinion. If you're not hit averse you can fix it with 4 or 5 transfers taking two every gameweek. Just my opinion I could be wrong. Also last season's fpl champ is languishing in 2.6 m so take heart. Still early and it's so easy to be in the top 100 k after just 4 or 5 gameweeks.

      Great film. I don't know about being underrated though, rated pretty well on imdb.

    is it worth keeping miki now that pogba injured? Will ManU be as attacking now that pogba is injured?

      Yes. United's last season's Player of the Season comes in for him, not a bad replacement.
