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

    I asked Harry to save me and he duly obliged.

      Harry Maguire?

  3. Pirlø's Pen

    8 years, 1 month ago

    Mkhi, Jesus -> Aguero, Salah (-4)

    Does this look like a fairly sensible hit?

      Not sure about Kun.

    3. LosBlancos

      just Mkhi to Salah

    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

    1. Flynny

      Harsh mate...take it easy..chin up

        yeah I'll bounce back

    2. Jafalad
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I wished I had saved.

      Booted Otamendi, Chopper and Batshite for Jones, Sterling and Father Abrahams.

      40 point swing just there, incredible. 😥 😥 😥

      1. drughi

        I feel better now, thank you jafa

    3. Team Bobcat
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Tales of woe...

      Booted Otamendi Salah Lacazett for Jones Sterling Aguero...28pt swing including hits. On top of that I have sterling and jones immediate problems. I had kane and had been debating the captaincy all week but settled on Aguero. Another 14pt swing

      1. Jafalad
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Hmmm...keeping the a-band on Kane was the only thing I got right. I think he has got me about 70% of my points this week.

  5. Ronnies

    What to do with Jones ?

  7. banskt

    Can we expect a hattie from Kane? Best assisted by Eriksen. 🙂

  8. shearer9
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Is Richarlison just a flash in the pan or do people reckon he's a great pick with the fixtures he has coming up?

    1. Halftime
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He’s an important attacking player for them, great value imo

    2. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Form is good. Looks a decent player. Price is very good. Fixtures good long term and short. Only 2 tougher fixtures at home and he's returned vs arsenal and Chelsea.

      1. Sánchez
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        (and the yellow shirt looks nice in the team lineup page)

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

          I am glad someone also likes these fine details.

          This

      2. GuyIncognito
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Should have scored against Man City as well. He's raw and a frustrating player because he misses chances, but that's why he's playing for Watford, not a bigger side.

  9. Somalion
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    With the rate that Mignolet messes up simple catches can we really say that wasn't a shot?

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

      haha good point

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      With the rate the centre backs make errors, it was more likely a pass to Matip.

    3. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'd laugh if it wasn't true 🙁

  10. BrutalLogiC

    sure is a lot of lucky sterling (c) kane (vc)

    1. makaveli123

      Dirty points

    3. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      most of this game is luck...........you have a vc for a reason

      im sure if sterling would have played hed have done well tho

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

      Not lucky. If you're capping a rotation risk, vc-ingsomeone who is nailed is logical.

      (I capped Jesus and vc Sterling)

      1. Johqvist
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        So you captained two rotation risks?

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

          Yep

          Never said I made a logical decision

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

        so u are illogical?

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

          At no point did I say I'd made a logical decision

    5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Probably not as many as you think

      Lots would have VC lukaku or another city player

  11. Plant Based FPLer
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Keeper error again IMO. Unbelievable. So many do that little hop step before a shot to try to "react quickly" when they hit the ground, only to mistime it and watch the ball go to the back of the net.

    1. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Mignolet is an error

    2. skriniar
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      loris make error

      1. Plant Based FPLer
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I know. I think I'd rather be playing myself than watching so I criticize instead!

  14. Sims
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    how is alli on 36 bps??

    he's like the tottenham version of salah when it comes to baps.

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

      He's playing deeper today.

    2. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I wondered that. Miles ahead of son or salah

    3. tafrère
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      With Son upfront today he's right in the middle of the field, even behind Eriksen, doing a lot of interceptions and good passes.

    4. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I don't quite get that, Salah is notoriously bad at getting baps.

  15. Sims

    8 years, 1 month ago

    A minute's silence for eriksen owners

    1. Glasner Ball
      • 13 Years

      a minutes silence having the 2nd (by 1 point) highest FPL scoring midfielder? i will take that 🙂

    2. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      We are comfortable owning 2nd top scoring midfielder in the game.

    CAPTAIN KANEEEEEEEEEEEEE

    WHY ISN'T DAVIES PLAYING WTF?

    I KNEWTRIPPIER WAS MORE NAILED

    BUT DAVIES IS SO NAILED THEY SAID WOW

    1. ★Kuntheman★

      Chill fam

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

      Then you should have picked trippier if you "knew" he was more nailed. Don't play the blame game - it's your team

    3. Eden ACCOUNT CLOSED

    1. GOTHAM City F.C.

      and the average would have shot up too. sadly

    2. Fred54

      Its amazing what happens when your players get points...

  20. SouthCoastSaint
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I don’t think it’s ever an assist, but can someone explain how atsu got an assist when eriksen hast today? (Owned both)

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

      This is what I want to know. Neither should be assists.

      1. SouthCoastSaint
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Agree neither should ever be assists

      2. Postman Ty
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        The apparent difference between a block/clearance and just a deflection. Stupid really, that it can be so arbitrary.

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

      atsu's was a shot. it's in the rules

    3. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Shot on target versus cross off target

      1. SouthCoastSaint
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        You could argue eriksen was on target?

        1. Ha.
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          You could. You could also argue that the Earth is flat, though.

    Kane not captained + Salah today, good or bad?

    1. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Points is points.

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years

      Erm...

    3. F4L
      • 11 Years

      very good

    4. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      obviously good.

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

      Good I think - average is up 11 from this game therefore 13 is above average

        Kane is so explosive, Lukaku is so consistent, both are nailed - combine the two and you have the perfect Captain rotation pair that will rarely let you down

          Nah, Aguero and Kane

            Exactly - both explosive!

            Kun doesn’t score when rotated and not on the pitch

              Can't believe how many people ignore amazing fpl options for fear of rotation

                Morata Kane Lukaku for me. All 3 may well out score Kun. Not fear avoiding Kun just judgement, but I may get him in from time to time

          Unless you keep captaining the wrong one each week 🙁

            You will have the odd miss, but on the whole they are a good pair.

            Would love some one to do a Captain pair comparison between the top players to see what the best, worst and average Captain’s score would be. I reckon Kane:Lukaku would be right up there

          Very true. Have had both from the start but not picked the right captain yet. I'll no doubt go on a run of getting right...i hope..

          Who else just stuck the armband on Kane from week 3 and got all his hauls because they realised every season everyone says that if they'd just capped Kane every week then they'd have done better with their captain choice?
