The Boxing Day action begins with a potential bang, as Spurs take on Southampton at Wembley Stadium, providing Harry Kane with the opportunity to break the hearts of Fantasy managers once again.

Having fired an unscripted hat-trick at Turf Moor in Gameweek 19, Kane can either add to his 15-goal tally today or, perhaps frustrate at Spurs’ temporary home venue once again.

As always, he will be going all out to find the net. He needs just one more goal to break Alan Shearer’s Premier League record for the most in a calendar year and Spurs will surely be geared up to give their striker that opportunity.

Kane returns as the Gameweek’s top captain pick and has been acquired by over 127,000 ahead of kick-off. Those managers will be anticipating an instant dividend from a 12.9 asset who will be benched or sold for his blank in Gameweek 21.

Southampton arrive at Wembley without a clean sheet since Gameweek 9 – a statistic that could pave the way for Spurs’ other attacking assets to shine. With a double Gameweek 22 beckoning, this gives Fantasy managers an opportunity to weigh up further investments with Christian Eriksen and Son Heung-min both potential targets.

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

      lol he might blank when you get him in

        Probably. He usually did when I had him before.

      it was stupid idea from the beginning

        Hindsight's great isn't it?

            • 14 Years

            With hindsight, it was a stupid move. At the time, there were a lot of good arguments for it.

            1. DantheManinaPan
              • 12 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              Ok, actually I agree - it wasn't 'stupid' you're right, I just disagreed with it

          don't know. ask Kane sellers and some politicians

      2. timski8000
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Not really.

        I had Aguero Captain last week and a hatful of points from my beefed up defence.

        Aguero > Morata (c) for the next 2 so let’s see how it plays out.

    Best thing is we can enjoy the rest of the Boxing Day footie without resenting an early captain fail.

    You know it’s true.

    1. Tcheco
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I don't care what happens after Kane is done in about an hour. Expecting 2 more 🙂

  7. Old Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Jay seems an OK bloke - he'll be able to take this flak. He'll beat us all despite Harry.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I'm coming for him. Only 30pts behind with Kane(c)

    2. Numb
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      He's still comfortably beating me!

    3. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Haha. People going on as if he's some kind of amateur at the game.

    4. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Not had Kane for weeks now and mostly green arrows. Definitely doable.

      That said, I've now worked it to have a power midfield 5 and Kane up top (after the blank). Spurs looking a lot better.

  8. Gaffers
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    I'm still not convinced by Kane, will monitor and see how he does in the DGW, maybe bring in after the transfer window closes next year.

    Ok I'll stop using Jay Egersdorff for upvotes. You just got Kane'd!

      Citizen Kane'd!

  11. Stefan Schnoor
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Best 1 week punt for a budget defender next GW? Max £4.7m? Will have Kane and Vert on the bench so want to replace Hunemeier.

    Will shift to Masuaku/Ogbonna for double after.

    Thinking either:

    A) Kenny
    B) Klavan / Robertson
    C) Anyone else?

    Can I just remind all the Kane (C) that kane success doesn't = a guaranteed green arrow 🙂

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Come on Salah - 1pter

    2. IRBOX âš½
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      13 points minimum captain = green arrow

    3. lugs
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      i ddnt't captain the geezer , but it is a big lol at all the sheep justifying their sellage of Kane to some no hope joker from another team

    4. Sandy Ravage
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      He could get sent off...

  14. rozzo
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    If only Kane was reliable, 2 goals in 7 games then 5 in one and a half, my mistake should never have sold him but I wasn't expecting him to score back to back hat tricks.

    Over to you Salah....

    1. Meinhoff
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah, if only he could score a hattrick each and every game

      1. rozzo
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        not as simple as that, he wasn't justifying his price before, no one was expecting a hat trick a game but his returns was poor for a 12.8 player

    2. Tcheco
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      That is why he's a season keeper

      1. Tcheco
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Fire & forget

    3. DantheManinaPan
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Cap him every game and he will reward you - I've capped him every week excluding GWs 1 and 2 and the one he missed - he's averaged me more than 14 points a game and this one isn't even finished

      1. rozzo
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        And Salah? Sterling? Cap them every week and you would be doing better.

      Not as much as I do mate. See my post below. He destroyed the end of my season last year with repeated excessive scores and now he is pissing all over my season again. I was right to sell him and strengthen squad as he wasn't justifying his price. I've waited all season for those huge excessive scores giving him the armband every single week but they never came. Absolute c##t.

  19. QueefParkRangers

    10 people above me in my ML all have Kane captain, so this is all irrelevant to me.

    1. Butcher
      • 12 Years

      People justifying why they took Kane out lol

      Not like Berahino has scored a hat trick and everyone has captained him, it's the bragging that water is wet

  24. gooberman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Kane is an absolute c##t. I hate him! I had him in my team from the start of the season and he has been captain every week, waiting for so long for huge hauls like he was getting last season with regularity when I didn't have him. Lost patience and I didn't feel that he was justifying his price so let him go last week. So what does the c##t go and do? Score a hat-trick and it's likely that he will get another one this week. Just unbelievable. F##k off Kane!

        Such a nobbish captain hindsight comment that

      2. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        what kind of comment is that

      3. gooberman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Fantasy footballs greatest player also sold him so I think you are wrong. Kane has hugely over-performed in the last couple of matches which certainly hasn't been in keeping with his scores over the first half of the season.

      4. Qaiss
        • 10 Years

        what a tw** you are writing that comment.

    As a non Kane owner but someone who has profited from betting on him to score, I don't know how I feel right now.

        Let me see what happens in 2nd half. Then the decision

  28. Pierce34
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Kane the most transferred in player this week - if you don't have him, get him quick before he rises! 😉

    1. Point-one short
      • 9 Years

      Going to be annoying for those that want him for the dgw

    2. Kun Tozser
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Only a fool or a really good bench would get him in this week - if you don’t have him you wait a week and play a differential!

    Spurs have played well since they rested the first team in the CL against Apoel. Got to rotate and rest in the PL. Pep does it frequently - tis a squad game.
