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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

        • 10 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        And no hair.

    4. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years

      Eriksen selfish

    5. 1zverGGadeM
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      No Alli/Dembele on the pivot is bad for Kane right?

      1. FC Hakkebøf
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        Yep.. Alli makes great runs which accommodates Kane by creating space for hin

        1. 1zverGGadeM
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          + without crosses from Bavies/Trippier Kane is lost then 😀

    6. Jafooli
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Rose looks like he'll be knackered around 85mins.

      Davies should be warming up around 75mins

    7. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Eriksen close.

      RLC.

      Looking Lively.

      Aurier is so bad

      Scenes on here later should Kane captain fail and one of your City players is benched.

      Good to see Lil Uzi Rose back to fitness.

    16. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

      6 years, 7 months ago

      If Kane blanks today that will be 2-2-2-2 from BUR, SWA, BOU, CPL

      It couldn't happen, could it?!

      1. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        2, 2, 2, 1.

        He'll get booked.

      2. diesel001

        6 years, 7 months ago

        Why not?

        People call Lukaku a troll, but he is predictable. If there is one thing about Kane is that he is explosive, but not predictable. He could score a hat-trick against Arsenal and no-one would be surprised.

      3. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        17 minutes into the game. Just watch it and enjoy.

        Get Burnley off that list, defensive powerhouse 😀

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          True 🙂

    17. diesel001

      Aurier is a typical Poch buy IMO. He has raw attributes that need honing. He could be very good in a couple of years if Poch hangs around to coach him.

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        More like a Mark Hughes buy imo.

        Good player that is an utter shitbag.

      2. Monkey Hanger

        Poch could turn me into an international full back.
