Dugout Discussion – Spurs vs Liverpool

After Arsenal swept aside Everton at Goodison Park, we turn our attentions to Wembley Stadium as Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool bring the curtain down on Gameweek 9.

All eyes are on Harry Kane, who is still seeking his first league goal at Spurs’ temporary home.

Despite that record, he is second only to Romelu Lukaku in the race for the Gameweek 9 captaincy – 18.4% of FPL managers have handed him the armband.

Given that only two of the top 10 captains have scored so far, a haul from Kane could have a major impact on the overall standings.

Elsewhere for the hosts, Ben Davies is passed fit to return but surprisingly has to settle for a spot on the bench along with Danny Rose.

Sold by over 195,000+ FPL managers last week, the Welshman has started just two of the last five Gameweeks and next faces a weekend trip to Old Trafford.

For the visitors, Mohamed Salah, Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino have the chance to play their way into our plans as the fixtures turn in Liverpool’s favour from Gameweek 10.

And James Milner – listed as a defender in FPL – could also be one to watch as an out of position option, with Jurgen Klopp naming him in midfield this afternoon.

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

        Without taking out Alli for sterling (c) I wouldn't have Kane (VC) swings and roundabouts

          • 9 Years

        Worth a -4

        Choupo, Alonso and Davies ----> Salah, Daniels and RLC/Carroll/4.4def

        Would give me this team:

        De Gea
        Otemendi - Danies - Ward
        Silva - Sterling - Salah - RLC/Carroll
        Kane - Lukaku - Vardy

        Subs: Elliot - RLC/Carroll - 4.4 def - Mbemba

        3. Chandler Bing
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          1. CFC96
            • 6 Years
            6 years, 8 months ago

            ive got both those, gonna get kiko this week to add to the rotation myself, reverting back to 343 cheaps defenders i reckon

              • 7 Years
              6 years, 8 months ago

          • 6 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

      • Rainer
        • 7 Years
