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

      But he only needs an hour to tell a team how to defend...

    Wish I could wake up. I’m clearly dreaming cos it was implied me and others were idiots cos we didn’t believe in curses and that Kane could score at Wembley.

    Kudos to Mark Sutherland backing up his love of Kane!

      Kane gets goals, its as simple as that

    My first Kane goal this season. 😀

    Have Ota, Ward and VVD. Davies to Kiko feels right. Not sure if it's just because I'm drawn to his cool AF name or not though

    Never doubt Arry.

    Kane vs Lindeflop next week too - essential!!!

    People call Lukaku a troll, but Kane is the real troll. Will blank against Swansea then score against Liverpool.

    And I am saying this as a Kane(c). Unpredictable, but explosive.

    1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
      • 8 Years

      Kane is not a troll, I know he will score 25+ goals in a season. V easy to understand

      1. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        He is when you (c) him against Swansea and transfer him out for Liverpool.

      But why is Swansea at home a better fixture than Liverpool at home for goals, this season? Swansea have let one in away from home in four - Liverpool have now let 12 in. They wont sit - Swansea, Burnley etc would.

    armband is going on kane for the remaining 29 gameweeks

    How Lovren continues to play top flight games is one of the biggest mysteries since Navas

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Not helped by the defensive tactics.
      I.e zonal marking on set plays, trying to play offside

    2. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Even Berbs knows this , so yeah

  13. Steinburg FC

    So glad i didn't go sideways Trippier,Bavies 3/4 weeks back. but his time is up i fear.

  14. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 7 Years

    Bought in Morata (C) for Lacazette as I didn't have faith in Kane (C) 🙁

  15. HamezMace

    6 years, 7 months ago

    On WC,

    A. Morata, and a defence of Daniels, Sakho, Dunk, Mee, 4.0m
    B. Abrahams, and a defence of Walker, Azplicueta, Yoshida, Daniels, 4.0m

    Masterclass by Mark for captaining Kane (who was yet to score at wembley)

    What was he thinking. 😀

    1. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

  18. WVA

    Everytime i posted my wc team on here a few weeks back with Trippier in i got slated! Anyone agree that he IS nailed yet?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      He quite obviously isn't.

    2. Pep says
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      I don't agree he's nailed but we'll done

  19. Meltens

    I was considering Bavies to Trippier ahead of this game, now even more so.

    Is there any consensus as to who of the two are most likely to start when everyone is fit?

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
        6 years, 7 months ago

        Silly move imo

        1. Meltens
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          Would have been good this week though and Davies keeps missing out...

    2. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Morata ---> Kane ?

    3. Whats the Mata?
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Call Trippier not nailed as he starts every week and gets attacking returns.
