Dugout Discussion – Spurs vs Crystal Palace

A busy Sunday treats us to four fixtures before the final international break of 2017 is upon us.

Up first, we make our way to Wembley as Spurs entertain Crystal Palace in the 12pm kick-off.

With four of the top five squaring up later in the day, all eyes are on Harry Kane against the Eagles.

The Tottenham striker is the number one captain choice for Gameweek 11, selected by 27.6% of Fantasy Premier League managers after bagging a brace in four of his last six league outings.

Dele Alli owners are left frustrated, though, as he misses out through a hamstring injury, while at the back, Ben Davies drops to the bench as Danny Rose is handed a first league start of the season.

Still sitting in 20% of FPL sides, Davies looks set for an exodus over the break – he’s failed to start Tottenham’s last four home league encounters at Wembley.

For the visitors, we get another chance to scout Wilfried Zaha as Roy Hodgson’s side prepare for a fine run of fixtures.

The Ivorian international has scored in two of three appearances since being handed a central role up front upon his return from injury.

Over the next six Gameweeks, Palace have four favourable home matches (EVE STO BOU WAT) allied with trips to Brighton and West Brom.

    Spurs should switch to a proper 3-5-2 IMO. Get Son playing as a proper striker with Kane. Keep them central

          Hasn't done much beyond a few set pieces.

          It's all Son wasting the attacks and being selfish.

    Somebody in Spurs dressing room needs to have a word with Son - so greedy, why didn't he just square it for Kane?! Shooting from that angle is ridiculous & worrying

  5. CloudSky

    So painful to watch Son when you don't own him and he singlehandely kills any of your assets.

    Wow, clearly Palace are better than Real Madrid, and if they were an English team they would be in the Championship.
