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

    Didn't realize there were these many Kane captainers after the debacle last week. Useless Lukaka

  4. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos

    Should I sell Sterling and Davies? Cheers!

    1. ViperStripes

      Sterling, no, Davies yes.

    Fab Elliot
    Alonso Otamendia Davies Cedric Lowton
    Hazard Sterling Richarlison Choupo Carroll

    What would you do here to get Salah?v

    1. Turns

      Can't do much with Hazard still there

  6. The Bandit

    72pts and red arrow in both FFS leagues. It's tough on here 🙂

  7. Tim Canterbury

    Absolutely all over the place atm.
    Is there more to the Kane injury?
    Captaining Salah too maverick?
    Which 3 city players to go for
    Are there actually any defenders out there?
    To Hazard or not to Hazard
    Keep Lukaku?
    Wc?
    So much to discuss

    1. Blanka
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Salah is going to be a popular captain next week.

      If you can afford KDB. Worth considering due to his more nailed minutes.

      Rather have Morata.

      Get rid of Lukaku.

  8. Danstoke82

    Rough GW. Took the armband off Kane and gave it to Jesus. Also brought in Sterling.

    1. skriniar

      😀 shit happens

  9. Qaiss
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Did take out Kane for Kun so made a mistake. But oh well, Kane always does well when I don't have him it seems. Ill get him back in for Leicester away but I'm really surprised as to how bad Liverpool were.

  10. ViperStripes
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Which one to bring in?
    A Richarlison - gives more funds itb for upgrading Vardy next week
    B Sane - More city = more points (already have Aguero & Sterling)
    C Salah - Good fixtures, I already have Coutinho.

    1. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years

      A

    Cant believe Jonty, had Sterling Captain ends up with Kane points being his vice captain. Mark had Kane captain.
    Mooy points stayed routed on my bench thanks to Loftus Cheek coming on late. Lukaku was my captain with his usual let down.

    1. Galza
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Should make for an interesting Scoutcast... 🙂

  12. DAVESAVES
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Silva or Sterling for Salah(C)?

    1. Turns
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling if any. I would go for it if you have Jesus or kun up top

  13. kirwy
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Can't decide who to get, Vardy or Firmino

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Neither is my advice

      1. kirwy
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        £9.8 itb to spend on a forward. Any other candidate?

        1. Your Man With The Hair
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Stretch to Morata?

          1. kirwy
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Plan is this –4:
            Eriksen > Richarlison
            Lukaku > Aguero
            JRod > Vardy/Firmino

            Strech to Morata means –8 with Jones > 4.9 (maybe Daniels)

    2. Your Man With The Hair
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino all day.

    3. Lone Wolf
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      dont like any. Currently own Vardy

    4. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino between those 2

    5. KingoftheRunts
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino is the game's biggest troll. Save yourself the pain and stretch to Morata or Lacazette

      1. kirwy
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Worth –8?

        Eriksen > Richarlison
        Lukaku > Aguero
        JRod > Morata
        Jones > Daniels

    Any Brighton fans able to shed some light on whether Hunemeier or Goldson is the preferred backup for Duffy/Dunk?

    Just putting the WC puzzle pieces together.

    So you stay in lms if u got the avg?

    1. Speédy
      • 9 Years

      Should do

    2. TorresMagic™

      39 looks safe.
      It gets trickier in 2018.

      1. Dreaming of glory
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        39? I thought it was the overall average on official ff. Is it just the avg of those who are in the lms league?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Average is 55, it's bottom 7% this week after hits.

  18. TerryVenables
    • 9 Years

    Is Ward worth the extra 0.2 over Mee?

    1. Scout Pics
      • 8 Years

      Nah

    2. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years

      Yes

  19. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Who will be the next manager to go?

    Koeman
    Bilic
    Hughes
    Klopp

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Bilic

    2. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Koeman

    3. Scout Pics
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Koeman

    4. Captain Haddock
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Biman

    5. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Conte

    6. Carlton_Goal
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I wish it was Bilic, won't be though. Probably Koeman or Hughes

    7. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Every time this question is asked another name appears on the list 😀

      Hope Klopp stays otherwise I'll need a new team name and user name 😛

    8. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      West Ham fixtures look bad so i recon Bilic will be the first of that lot.

  20. AlCapwnUK

    2ft, at least 3 transfers I'm keen to make....thoughts

    Team

    Elliott, Foster
    Bellerin, Bavies, Cedric, Naughton, Clark
    Salah, Silva, Milkhi, Choupo, King
    Kane, Lukaku, Hemed

    a) Bavies has to go right?
    - thinking Otamendi for now, maybe back to Jones/Vert/Toby in the future

    b) Mikhi was a straight swap for Pogba following his injury, regretted it since then
    - Thinking Ozil / Coutinho / Richarlison / Mahrez

    c) Lukaku - not been captaincy material for a couple weeks, and won't for a couple more
    - Morata is my gut instinct; but Jesus/Aguero also. Lacazette?

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Otamendi, Richarlison and Aguero.

  21. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos

    What do I do, 2FT, 0ITB and worried about Jesus, Sterling and Davies. Ty guys

    Eliott, Forster
    Azpi, Davies, Otamendi, Mee, Rangel
    Coutinho, Choupo,

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      lost the second half of your team.

      i'm also considering dropping Davies, potentially to Otamendi

      1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Sorry, see below

  22. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Whom should i substitute Jones for?

    My backline:

    Ota Jones Naughton Ward Hunem

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Cedric?

  23. Pea Soup
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Any decent striker options for under £8m or should I stick to Abraham and 4-4-2.

    1. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Stick

    2. foley200
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Tammy about the best atm. Have a look at Hemed if he’s back or Murray. Brighton doing ok.

      1. Pea Soup

    Eliott, Forster
    Azpi, Davies, Otamendi, Mee, Rangel
    Coutinho, Choupo, Groß, Sterling, RLC
    Kane, Jesus, Vardy
    Cheers

    1. AlCapwnUK
      • 11 Years

      Davies priority - too much rotation

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Team looks decent, Davies looks priority to lose

      1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Is Trippier nailed on?

  25. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Any transfer(s) suggestions?

    Pope - Elliot
    Alonso - Davies - Otamendi - Cedric - Mbemba
    Coutinho - Sterling - Richarlison - Choupo-Moting - RLC
    Kane - G.Jesus - Vardy

    2 FTs
    bank: 0.0

  26. DAVESAVES
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed

    Silva or Sterling for Salah(C)?

    1. Galza
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling

    2. foley200
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      I’m looking at the same move. Can’t decide which one to ditch. I know pep will burn me either way

      1. DAVESAVES
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Im thinking Silva for nailedness or Sterling for less minutes but more explosive...

    If you were to finish in one millionth position every GW, where do you reckon you finish at the end of GW38?
    I'm guessing top twenty thousand.

    1. AlCapwnUK

      at least top 100k

          It's a big green arrow every week.
          https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/entry/44937/history is a guide and I've had a few shockers.

            • 12 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            I had seven consecutive greens up until GW8. Currently 206k. Mind you I was 3.3mil GW1, then my red in GW8 was a belter, almost 4.7mil.

      2. alastair
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I don't think that's borne out by analysis of past winners - but of course an absence of hits is usually a reflection of initial decisions being good which leads to strong performance
