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

    Not captaining kane and selling Ramsey for Sterling has cost me grand total of 28 points.

    I feel sick.

      You are too much of a knee-jerker IMO. Every week asking too many questions. Need to chill.

        Wouldn't say that. Have had 2fts twice so far. -12 in hits only and still have WC. Been patient I thought.

        Held Ramsey for 6wks.

      I sold kane salah Batshuyui in my widcard I think I am closer to 50 down!
      Cheer up

    3. Chirsbom

      Sold Salah for Sterling and C him, over Kane. Kaku got VC. Also dropped Azi for Luiz for some funds. I feel you...

    4. Emmicson

      I Sold Ramsey Alli Kane to Zaha Sterling and Kun for -12

    Kane scoring at Wembley , and Laca scoring away. What bullshit hoodoo theories to go pop next?

    1. MikeDuff

      Guardiola will pick the same XI

          Crazy talk.

    2. Teoninja
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Salah or Coutinho?
      Richarlison or Zaha?

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

        Coutinho and Zaha

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

          I was going to buy them, but then Salah dropped and scored, while Richarlison had lots of goal attempts and bonus with Chelsea and Arsenal. Why do you think I shouldn't change my mind?

      2. Henryyy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Salah and Rich

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

          Yes, but Richarlison has bad fixtures and Zaha is playing as a CF. Do you think Salah is going to be better than Cou with and without Mané?

      3. THFC4LIFE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          It's FPL m8. Bad gameweek one week; good gameweek the next. You have to roll with the punches.

      Mkhi > Salah for a -4?

    5. Darth_Krid

      Amazing how this game can turn from unmitigated disaster to glorious in the blink of an eye. Kane (c) and Salah!

    6. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sane or Saleh?
      (Only got Sterling from City)

      1. Scout Pics

        Salah

    7. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Gomez has Kane in his back pocket

        Damage is done haha

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

      Wild Card. Went for a big three. Appreciate all negativity.

      Foster (Elliot)
      Bertrand, Duffy Otamendi (Ward, Gomez)
      Silva, Rambo, Zaha, (Doucouré, Carroll)
      Ageuro, Morata, Kane

      1. Tim Canterbury
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        No Richalison no sterling no Salah no thank you

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

          Hmm... only Liverpool player I trust is Mane.
          Prefer the reliability of Silva v Sterling.
          Couldn't fit Richalison in budget.

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

        Same front 3. But going for richarlison and sterling

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

        Mid weak. Would downgrade Bertrand tbh - he has nothing over Cedric

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

          Fair shout. He hasn't offered as much going forward as I thought he would.
          Mid is weak to finance the forward line.

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

            I get that - had 3 big hitters up front until I brought in Sterling for Atsu 2 Gws ago. It's just difficult because you're relying on one of those three to score well each week, and captaining the right one

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

      Kane hasn't done anything in 10 mins. FAIL.

    10. hurrrrr
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Moreno or Gomez for a 4.5 Liverpool defender?

      Going to rotate with Swansea for that 4th spot.

      1. GAMBIT

        Mate have you not been paying attention to this game?

    11. ZakAFC_

      Regret not doing Kolasinac > Otamendi for -4 ðŸ™

      1. Somalion

        I also regret not buying the best scorers of the week.

      Friday night's Alli -> Sterling no-brainer has made me want a lobotomy.

      1. n-doggg

        Before or after the deadline?

        1. Forza
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

          Before :(, after the deadline would have been perfect.

          1. n-doggg
            • 13 Years

        Decent move on paper tbh, just unfortunate.

        1. Forza
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

          Yeah, that just makes it more annoying though!

    14. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      67 post-BAPS all out. Yeah this is a slight brag, but you got to make the most of the good weeks because we all have more than enough crap weeks.

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

        68 here. Above average?

        1. diesel001
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Well above. Average around 50pts

      2. 😀 Well done!

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

        not much of a brag with Kane captainers on 32 alone??

        1. diesel001
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Only make up about 17% of all players though.

      4. J T

      Hazard & bavies > salah & gomez?

      1. willl

        Why would you want a Pool def?

        1. Ben the Mee

            this

      2. The Royal Robin
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Next week could be even more of a laugh. Sterling and Bavies are both dodgy to own. Aguero might even be benched next week. This season it's feeling hard to even find decent nailed players.

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

          Kane is nailed!

      3. LIARS POKER
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Anyone else thinking about just keeping Sterling and accept the fact that he will be benched and have little cameos now and again.

        Seen a lot saying he needs to go but personally think at that price he's worth keeping for hauls whenever they are

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

          Most people here suggest to keep. I would, too. Has played part in most games so far. Returned points in most of those, too.

        2. Monkey Hanger
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Me definitely. Look at highest scoring mids, four of the top six are city. Be patient and points will come.

      4. Tim Canterbury
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Poch COMPLETELY side stepped the question on why Kane was subbed and just waffled about how well he played. Not a good sign for me

        1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          He probably doesn’t know or the injury is non existent so nothing to elaborate on

        2. Flynny
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          He's fine...chill

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

          You sell him.
          I'll keep him

        4. OPTA FPL
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Hamstring usually needs 4-6 weeks

          1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Lol u wish, Kane will be fine but please transfer him out if u fancy ir

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

            Not if it's a slight pull or cramp. Any tear and yep 3 to 6 weeks

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

          Maybe he didn't want to admit his star man had cramp/was time wasting

        6. Twisted Saltergater
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Probably just a tight hamstring. He'll be fine with a week's rest.

        7. Ghost Gooner
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          "He's tired, 3 games in one week nothing serious"

          What the hell are smoking? 😕

      5. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Why do people sell Kane?

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

          I only sold him twice this season.

        2. La Roja
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Because some people have to lose this game

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

          Point chasers 😆

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

          Because he was trolling and I thought Morata had better fixtures

          Kane being good is no hindsight.

          Yes. Goal is due.

              See what you did there....

        Trippier looks tired, time to get Davies on.

        Surprised at the number of individuals who can’t see that Poch played Aurier on the left to combat Salah’s pace. Davies will start next week, in my opinion.

          Davies has served me so well that it would heart breaking to sell him. Maybe few more gws...

          Davis is dead in terms of fpl now.

          He is just too expensive a player to be a rotation risk.

          And the fact that Davies probably wasn't 100 % with only a couple of trainings after being ill. I think he'll play and has a good chance of points against a slightly struggling United team.

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

          no, keep

          Vardy has backfired all by himself

            Would still rather have Vardy's nailedness.

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