Dugout Discussion – Huddersfield vs Spurs

Gameweek 7 begins at the John Smith’s Stadium as Huddersfield Town bid to continue their encouraging start to life in the top flight against Spurs.

Their chances of success will surely rely on their ability to shackle the key Fantasy asset on show – Harry Kane.

The Spurs striker heads into today’s clash backed by 316,000 new owners, boosted by Sergio Aguero’s untimely accident on Thursday. Indeed, 183,000 managers made the straight swap from the Man City striker to Kane this week.

His current form is almost irresistible. Kane has scored 19 goals in his last nine away appearances for club and country, with 11 goals in his last five Premier League road trips.

While the Terriers have yet to face a striker of his pedigree, they will go into today’s contest with confidence. David Wagner’s defence are organised and have kept four clean sheets from their four Gameweeks so far.

Spurs may need the guile of Christian Eriksen and the added goal threat of Dele Alli to unlock their opponents. Both have been somewhat overshadowed by Kane’s form but remain key Fantasy options with 25.9% and 29.3% ownership respectively.

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

    Im behind on my TV....3 or 4 mins....but a Kane hatty is very very likely now....they'll tee him up in the 2nd half

    Why are people suggesting Rom won't play? Has there been a rumour?

    Transferred in lukaku for aguero. Guess it wouldn’t be the worst if he didn’t play as I had Kane VC

      You're going to have to go to Old Trafford and injure him in the warm ups yourself for him not to play

    I've not been watching the game, but sounds as though we've been robbed of an Eriksen assist... What happened?

    1. L'Aeroplanino
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      not an assist

    2. Andy_Social
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Bit harsh as he did all the work, but it came off a defender

      1. nobwak
        • 8 Years

      Eriksen had ball on edge of area... def tackled it off him... fell to Davies... everybody do the dinosaur

  18. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

    Any more news on Kaku?!

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Which kind of news?

  19. Cok3y5murf
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Alli and Eriksen covering Kane brilliantly

    1. Differentiator
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I have all 3. Kinda rely on some points from Alli and Eriksen

      1. noquarternt
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        3 and 3?

    2. Red Dagger ✪

      Don't use the C word....

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        It's directed at those who believe in the C word, me not being one of them

        1. Red Dagger ✪
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          I know 😉

  20. Guy Demel

    Lukaku to start.

    Martial and Herrera goals, both unassisted.

    United 2-0 up at half time.

    Lukaku taken off for a point, or 2 if you captained him.

    FFS meltdown ensues

  21. Fred54
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Less than 1 hour till Lukaku news. Although if he was out of the squad completely news of that should leak around 15 mins before the embargo is lifted at 2PM.

  22. laplana
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Eriksen letting me down, fancy shifting him to Silva this week.

    1. Differentiator
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      That would be a knee jerk

    2. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Eriksen is better than Silva

  23. Bouncebackability
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Instead of Lukaku missing out completely, imagine if he was benched and then came on for a one pointer when the game is 0-0 after 65mins..

    1. twoplustwo
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Don't

    2. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Heck No

  24. twoplustwo

    Looking good business selling Walker

  25. TheBusDriver

    Lukaku will hopefully match Kane.

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I actually still fancy him to outscore Kane if Harry doesn't get any more goals or assists

  26. FPL ZB
    • Has Moderation Rights

    Ffs I really hope Lukaku starts 🙁

  27. Salarrivederci
    • 8 Years

    Kane essential

  28. Chucky
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    No kaku would would be awesome 😀 have Kane VC

    1. Podge
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Lukaku Hattie would be better

  29. Fuchs Mane Kante
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Lino needs specs there though.
