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.

    Aurier has been the most dangerous player for Crystal Palace. What a joke he is.

    Pep is getting more predictable

    1. rivercityransom
      • 8 Years

      he is just lulling us into a false sense of security, don't believe his lies

    2. Stoic

      Jesus Argument ?

      1. Rik Waller
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        Jesus looked poor last game. Kun showing he's the best striker. Pep prefers this formation and trusts the speedsters on the wings more than jesus

        1. Stoic
          • 7 Years
