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

    Would you guys WC on this team?

    Elliot / Myhill*
    Davies* / Jones* / Naughton / Mee / Long*
    Eriksen / Salah / Sterling* / Carroll / Chalobah*
    Kane / Jesus* / Vardy

    Got 3 definite non-starters, 1 potentially injured (Jones) and 3 under rotation (Davies, Sterling, Jesus). Really unsure what to do with this just now cos it could be a very high scoring team moving forward if those rotated players play!

      I wouldn't.

    I have no Pool cover.
    But I am very tempted to get Richarlison ahead of Salah
    - when the 2.7 difference is factored in.
    What ye think?

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

      Thinking the same.

    2. El Matador
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Both could be gold. Salah will get some serious points his season. One game he will convert most of his chances

    At least Man City play Tuesday before Scoutcast.

        CL is another issue though.

    Foster Elliot
    Hegazi Lowe Jones Alonso Naughton
    Sane Silva Eriksen Atsu RLC

    1. super zlatan
      • 13 Years

      Lukaku > kun for sure

  7. Snikii

    Just above average gw but iv climbed over 1m places in 4 wks of greens so steady progress. Just need one really good wk to get back to leaders in MLs.

    How we all doing??

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

      Top 8k OR - 566 pts

    2. England23
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Like wise, 51 off top of ML though but he has used TC, WC and free hit this week. I’ve only used WC so I’m in it for the long haul!

    3. Ghost Gooner
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      178 k OR, feels good after the 30 from gw8 which set me back to around 432k

      Just need to get capt spot on again to crack top 100k

    What to do with this bunch of midfield?

    Hazard, Silva, Sterling, Zaha, Carroll

    1. Sterling > Richarlison
    2. Hazard > Salah
    3. Hold

    1. El Matador
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Similar to mine. I'm doing Hazard to Salah and Vardy to Morata

    2. Feed tha Sheep
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      2

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

        Thinking the same, or :

        Hazard - Salah
        Carrol-Richarlison

        And the Week after, sterling to Romeu(4,4)

  13. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Terrible couple of weeks, dropped from 51k to 259k 🙁

  14. El Matador
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Is Firmino an option? Or should I play safe and go for Salah?

    1. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      Salah

    2. Feed tha Sheep
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      I wouldn’t want Firmino (got rid two weeks ago)

  15. super zlatan
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 6 months ago

    Thoughts on the following trades for free?

    Davies > Ota
    Sterling > richarilson.

  16. FPL Virgin

    No Sunday night knee jerk? 🙁

    1. Jay_
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Should get one, Mark will be buzzing and on a happy one.

      • TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        I'm spell checking it now 😉

      • Delhidynamo
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        People busy jerking( not their knees)

    2. arndff_
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      What about these 3 moves for a single hit:

      Jones, Atsu, Eriksen > Kiko, Richarlison, Coutinho?

      My whole team is:

      DDG Elliot
      Otamendi Monreal Jones* Naughton Long
      Eriksen* Salah DSilva Atsu* Tarroll
      Kane Lukaku Abraham

    3. Delhidynamo
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 6 months ago

      So Alonso seems to be dropping tonight/tomorrow

      Decision time. Worth losing SV even if I have 2 FTs and no pressing issues?

      1. @persecuted_by_mods
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Keep Alonso, Kante back soon and fixtures superb

          1. Delhidynamo
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            The thing I have Azpi too

            the downgrade to Moreno/Mariappa is so tempting

      2. okan58
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        2 FT
        Bank 0.7

        Foster
        Cedric - Jones - Davies
        Ritchie - Eriksen - Zaha- Sterling
        Jesus - Kane - Firmino
        Subs: Elliot, T. Carroll, Mee and Rangel.

        What should I change? Can you help me?

      3. Bleach †
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Thoughts on my team, lads 🙂

        Fab • Elliott
        Alonso • Stones • Cedric • Ward • (Mbemba)
        Salah • D.Silva • Choupo • (RLC • 4.5)
        Kane • Jesus • Morata

        Plan is to downgrade Alonso and upgrade RLC to Richarlison.

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Solid plan although I'd just keep Alonso and rlc. Maybe go Cedric to 4.5 like Moreno and then choup to richarlison if you have enough cash?

          • Nascimento
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Yeah, I'd do that. Hard to justify Alonso when the bench is looking that weak and fixtures soon to start coming thick and fast.

        2. Wild Rover
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Wasn't Mark championing Aguero earlier? Surprised to see he doesn't own him

        3. New Post
        4. Iceball
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Elliot Foster
          Alonso Walker Davies Kolasinac Hunemeier
          Eriksen Ritchie Choupo Carroll Romeu
          Kane Lukaku Abraham
          1ft. 0,7m itb.
          Early thoughts if no surprises midweek(will wait until later this week)

          A) Davies to Otamendi (stick with 433)
          B) Romeu&Davies to Richarlison&Mee-4 (switch to 343)
          C) Lukaku to Aguero
          D) Other

        5. FPL Emu
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Who should I prioritize getting out?

          A) Alonso (dropping)
          B) Davies (can take one drop without losing SV)
          C) Clark (will bench this week)

        6. KLOPPTOMANIA
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Is davies inj confirmed?

          1. KLOPPTOMANIA
            • 14 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Sorry, I man Jones :/

        7. Mo Mané No Problems
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Will Morata rise tonight? A rise would price me out of Vardy + Davies > Morata + 4.5 def 🙁

        8. Shardlow
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          My shocking defence is
          Davies, Ottamendi, Jones (Mbemba, Martina)

          No FT left and 2.0m ITB, take a hit at the end of the week or not bother?

        9. Distinctly Average
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          Haven't taken too many hits this season so far so feeling getting aggressive for next week.

          Kolasinac, Vardy, Ritchie > Kiko, Aguero, Richarlison (-8) after midweek games?

          Would give me:

          Hart
          Kiko, Jones, ward
          Sterling, Richarlison, Salah, Gross
          Lukaku, Kane, Aguero

          (Elliot, RLC, Naughton, Mbemba)

          Thoughts?

          • 8 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          RP from earlier on barring any injuries in any midweek games this will be my WC team for GW 10 any input would be great:

          Pope
          Dunk Monreal Mee
          Doucoure Hazard Salah Sane
          Aguero (C) Kane (VC) Okazaki

          Subs: Elliot,Jones,Surman & Hunemeier

          1. Ghost Gooner
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Wouldn't be comfortable w 2 Burnley defensive assets. Pope to Fab?

        11. Donster
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          I really need City coverage. Have 2ft
          Would you do:
          A:Eriksen,B Davies ➡️ KDB, Stones
          B:Eriksen, B Davies, Ayew➡️ Surman, Dunk, Aguero
