The penultimate match of Gameweek 19 has us drop in on Turf Moor as Burnley host Tottenham Hotspur.

Fantasy managers will be suffering split loyalties in this one, with Harry Kane clearly the key attacking asset on the pitch, up against the resilient and widely owned Burnley defence.

Kane goes into this encounter still in 2.1 million squads but having suffered ownership losses in both his previous two Gameweeks. Indeed, some 108,000 moved him out ahead of this match.

Even so, the Spurs striker is the Gameweek’s most popular captain with the backing of 867,000, just 40% of his remaining managers.

He will be tested by the Clarets backline that has conceded just three goals in home matches. However with James Tarkowski suspended and Stephen Ward still sidelined by injury, Sean Dyche’s rearguard could be stretched.

Ben Mee is still found in 724,000 squads and starts, while goalkeeper Nick Pope – owned by 357,000 – will be charged with repelling Kane and the likes of Christian Eriksen and Son Heung-min.

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

      Same here.
      But even without captaining Kane, you will get a green arrow.
      Kane = season long keeper

    Question to everyone few days ago I posted a question on the liv V ars game.
    http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/comment/17244558

    A few people responded, including some stalwarts. All the responses were synonymous, I ended up playing both liv assets. But did not know better if it would have been worth captaining them. So left my armband on hazard, big mistake. Was I missing something, as I presumed bigger teams would likely defend or park the bus(although I know jose loves it but isn't managing those teams). Was there anything that I was missing out on here? I know it comes with experience and plenty of it here on ffs.. Captain poll wasn't really that obvious this week either. Keen to improve and learn. Appreciate your feedback and pointers. Thanks all as always.

    Been extremely out of loop this week. What are we looking for as an acceptable score?

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      120

      1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Cool. I've p!ssed it then

    2. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      -12pts according to ScoutCast

    3. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I would guess 80

    4. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      70+

    5. mdm
      • 14 Years

      Min 100

    6. CloudSky
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      55+ is decent. 70+ if you want green in top 10k.

    7. MTPockets
      8 years, 6 months ago

      67 and above

    8. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Cheers for all replies gents and ladies. Even the comedic ones

  16. CloudSky
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Getting close to a ton yet will still lose another 10 against ML leader. This is getting impossible. 😀

  17. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Just think if it wasn't for that morata suspension there would have been so many more kane sellers!
    Some lucky kane owners out there

  18. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone who didn’t think Kane wasn’t due a hatrick is dreaming

  19. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Did Kane > Aguero two GWs ago, probably the crappiest way to do Kanexit.

    Kane 1, 17*

    Aguero 1, 16 - 4

    When I win I still lose heh.

  21. Albert_Luque

    I was so convinced Kane wouldn't do well. Bringing him in for KDB is painful. Could have been brilliant, but this week at least, a disaster.

    1. TomSaints
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Same (C) KDB has undone all the good work in the rest of my team

      1. MTPockets
        8 years, 6 months ago

        ditto

  22. Ode
