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

    3. Royal5

        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Sterling rested and guaranteed to start the next game

    4. The Mandalorian

      Love it, last week people did Salah to Sterling and now Sterling to Salah, the carousel of madness is here again 🙂

  4. Atimis
    • 7 Years

    Jones/Bavies Ritchie to Ward Richarilson -4 and keep Jesus for now??

    1. Lone Wolf
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      looks good

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

        Thanks, would leave funds to upgrade Jesus the week after

  5. Gazpilicueta

    Opinions please

    elliot fabianski
    alonso, cresswell, Davies, Mee, long
    Eriksen, Silva, Ritchie, RLC, Carroll
    Kane, Aguero, Vardy
    0.2 and 1FT

    Option 1) find a way to bring in Richarlison (or Doucoure if I cant afford him)

    Option 2) Fix Cresswell, Davies or Alonso

    Option 3) Bring in more City, always moar city

    Option 4) Wildcard baby, make it happen

    lemme know what you think!

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      2 - Alonso or Davies to Otamendi

    Any thoughts on what transfers to do here?

    Elliot / Fabianski
    Kola Maguire Ward / Davies* Wimmer*
    Salah D.Silva Ritchie RLC* / Chalobah*
    Kane Jesus* Morata

    1FT, 0.1 ITB

    Thanks 🙂

    1. FPL Touches
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Could swap Davies down for a Palace defender...Hodgson seems to have tightened up a leaky defence and great fixtures.

      Otherwise Jesus to Lacazette will give you a very strong (C) option next week

      1. the snazzy viking
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Wouldn't do that in a million years as I have just sold Lacazette, but the other one is interesting

        thanks

    2. Lone Wolf
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      why Jesus*?
      Davies > Ota

      Get rid of Jones and Otemendi.....bring in Linderoff and Lovren.

        Hhaha this guy ^

  10. Gooner97

    Vardy to Firmino? I think that it will backfire...

    1. Lone Wolf
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      no, keep

    2. The Mandalorian
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Vardy has backfired all by himself

      1. Scout Pics
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Would still rather have Vardy's nailedness.

    3. We Will Klopp you
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      No reason whatsover bar fixtures to bring Firmino in, minutes are at risk and he has woeful Prem form

    2. Ghost Gooner
      • 10 Years

      Cresswell has to go 1st

  12. The Mandalorian

    What an amazing day, Kane 16 points and Salah 7 points and my rank doesn't change??

    Sterling, Hazard, Choupo-Moting, Brady*, RLC
    Jesus, Abraham, Kane

    3.6 itb 1FT

    1. Brady > Coutinho or Salah
    2. Jesus > Aguero + Brady > Richarlison (-4)
    3. Something else! I have so much money in the bank I can get anyone in any position

    1. England23
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Number one sounds good to me, Jesus and Aguero will be rotated I think unless pep plays them together so pick one and stick, just like with a pool mid

      1. AYLD28
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Do you think my team needs any more hits?

        My original plan this week was Brady > Liv mid

        Also, Cout or Salah?

        1. England23
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          I wouldn’t say so, from what I’ve heard salah should have many more goals than he has now, maybe if he improves his finishing he could be the one to go for; and the rumour of him now being on pens? However any free kick that pool have you can always rely on cout. I’d go for salah

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

    Thinking mini WC to get improved team going forward. Think will pull back hit points. Good or not worth it?

    Lukaku Vardy DSilva (got Sterling) Davies Azpilicueta ( need to down to 4.5 so can pay for other moves) out for

    Aguero Morata Salah Otamendi Duffy

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Not sure about Vardy to Morata. The latter was poor this weekend and with Batshuayi grabbing a brace he might be at immediate risk.

      If you have Kane I'd say stick with Kane Aguero and Vardy

  15. Boss Hogg
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Sane or Saleh?
    (Only got Sterling from City)

    1. Scout Pics
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Salah

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

      Salah

  16. KUNingas
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    A) Lukaku + Ritchie -> Firmino + Coutinho
    B) Lukaku + Sterling -> Jesus + Coutinho

    1. Scout Pics
      • 6 Years

      Save

    2. Lone Wolf
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      A out of those but don like any somehow. Ritchie > Richarlison?

  17. Angin out the Begović
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    David Silva --> Sane
    Lukaku --> Morata

    Keep Jesus ?

    1. Lone Wolf
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      keep silva, keep jesus. lukaku > morata maybe

    2. Monkey Hanger
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Tbh picking two or three City, then showing patience is the way to go.

    man the little decisions in fpl life, switched armband from kane to lukaku and held off davies>otamendi as my ft and decided in the end to save the ft. 25 point swing just there. Incredible

  23. ooooo
    • 6 Years

    When should I do Davies + Jesus to Kiko + Aguero? Risky to do it today before any price changes?

  25. The Overthinker

    Kolasinac captain next week.
    Last chance before he gets the boot

    1. Teddy Brewski
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah what a massive disappointment he has been. Monreal was the pick

  26. We Will Klopp you
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Kane back where he belongs in the overall points standings 🙂 Could've just saved it for next gw though 🙁

  27. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    From weeks 12-27 the only tough games Man U play are tot MCI and ars. Looking forward to continuing to own their defensive options 😛

  28. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Got scores in the thirties over the last two weeks having taken my two first hits of the season.

    I feel I’ve been pretty unlucky to be fair. Thought taking Kane and Firmino out for Morata and Kun would’ve made sense but obviously not.

    Will try and resist rage wildcarding tonight. Would you WC with this team?

    Foster Elliot
    Alonso Kola Davies TAA Suttner
    Salah Sterling Ritchie Brady Carroll
    Kun Morata Vardy

    Team value is also incredibly low!?

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      soon probably it looks a bit GW5. Some if it is ok but other bits do need attention so if you still have the wc yes u should probably cinsder it

  29. FPL Touches
    • 12 Years

    Eriksen ➡ Sanchez (C) for FREE 🙂

    ...?

    1. drughi
      • 14 Years

      good punt for a week but eriksen is still better value imo
