The Gameweek begins at Old Trafford and a big clash between Manchester United and Spurs which, in Fantasy terms, has been turned on its head by Harry Kane’s injury.

The striker has been sold by more than 750,000 managers ahead of today’s deadline following the revelation of his absence from this match. Son Heung-min is trusted with leading the Spurs attack in his absence against a Man Utd defence which are yet to concede in a home match.

Jose Mourinho’s tactics will be pivotal to today’s outcome and the potential for Fantasy returns. United have set up to mirror Spurs three-man defence with Eric Bailly returning alongside Phil Jones and Chris Smalling. It remains to be seen if this signals the intention to attack the visitors, promoting the prospects of both Romelu Lukaku and the returning Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

Lukaku goes into this match on the back of successive blanks with his remaining 52.4% ownership desperate for him to produce today with a Gameweek 11 trip to Chelsea up next. The Belgian has been sold by over 314,000 managers ahead of today’s deadline.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Aguero will probably still come on to try and get the goal record

    1. Bubz

      What does the goal record have to do with anything. He's obviously going to break it at some point, it makes no difference to his or Pep's plans

        Actually, Pep mentioned playing him the last two games so he could try to get the record at home. Today's game is pretty inconsequential though.

    Well sterling has been a top pick these last two weeks 🙄

    1. Les Bleus
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Got him for Ramsey :/

      1. tokara
        9 years, 12 days ago

      Playing the market is nice.

  11. Les Bleus
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Kun captained by 40% in the top 10k. Please come on!

    1. Garlana
      9 years, 12 days ago

      And score...

    2. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️

      Wow.

  12. Sebbo29

    Lukaku time coming in 2 minutes

  13. Mark-O
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Mariappa... ahhhh and no more cheap defenders!

    Cue a Capoue goal later 😮

    Alli is so bad

  15. Pariße
    9 years, 12 days ago

    United got very lucky not to concede against Liverpool. Today again.

  16. The Mandalorian
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Alli the defender

    Just can't get going this season. Stuck around 1-1.5m and every change I make either doesn't work or just keeps pace with those around me. I've never finished lower than 12,700 in seven seasons but this season feels different. Much harder to make an impact.

    Sterling & Aguero were never going to start

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 12 days ago

      It's infinitely easier to say that now.

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        9 years, 12 days ago

        Said it all week

        1. Forza
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          9 years, 12 days ago

          It was still uncertain though. Saying "Pep will never do this" throughout the season with accuracy will be impossible.

          1. Hotdogs for Tea
            9 years, 12 days ago

            They both were selected to start (others notably not) in a rubbish cup against a Championship team, played 120 minutes and 4 others players were subbed ahead of them ? The were so obviously lined up for the midweek CL game ...

            1. Forza
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              9 years, 12 days ago

              I'm not saying that it was unlikely, but a prediction of who will be benched for City is far from a guarantee.

              1. Hotdogs for Tea
                9 years, 12 days ago

                Agreed but all the signs were there - I held on to Sterling in hope but had Kane to move on

    2. moz_1983
      9 years, 12 days ago

      Aye, pretty clear that. Kun owner but i got rid of Sterling for Silva since he was rested.

  23. Lecky Legs FC
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Jesus captain last GW Aguero captain this GW my last two picks have been terrible.

  24. Clump
    9 years, 12 days ago

    The "lol @" brigade have crawled out from under their rocks, only to return this time next week 🙂
    *Logs off.

  25. Hazz

    Even on a WC I fully expected Agüero not to start today. Had Kane not been injured, and Sterling not had uncertain minutes, I probably would have got in Jesus.

    However, short term moves will probably focus on getting Kane back in, and I don't want to make tons of transfers to get Agüero back anyway. So, not too gutted Agüero is benched. Would love a sub goal!

  26. Pariße
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Sold Lukaku for Aguero. That would’ve sucked.

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Maby lucky after all, Aguero has probably more minutes left to play this week than Lukaku 😉

  27. Fowler23

    Trollkaku hahaha

  28. FPL Blow-In

    Hopefully Kun stays on the bench and no cameo

    1. Garlana
      9 years, 12 days ago

      I'd rather him come on for 10 mins than Joselol coming off my bench for his typical 70 minutes.

  29. Les Bleus
    9 years, 12 days ago

    Early WBA goal please!

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 12 days ago

      That would be nice, but unlikely.

  30. fedolefan
    9 years, 12 days ago

    People, Kun to come on in the last 30 minutes against tired McAuley and Hegazi legs. Relax.
