Dugout Discussion – Spurs vs Watford

Gameweek 36 comes to its conclusion as Spurs welcome Watford to Wembley in Monday’s 8pm kick-off.

After Mohamed Salah’s rare blank on Saturday, Harry Kane has the chance to shake up the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) standings tonight.

The second top captain pick (17.84%) for this round of fixtures, Kane was handed the armband by 54 of the top 100 managers heading into Gameweek 36.

He was also the most bought player, earning 241,000 new owners, and is again the top transfer in as the north London side prepare for Double Gameweek 37 clashes against West Brom and Newcastle.

Yet his form is hardly prolific, with just a single goal scored over his last six league outings.

By comparison, the Spurs midfield have been far more reliable.

Christian Eriksen and Son Heung-min have both scored four times over the same period, while Dele Alli has netted on three occasions and also supplied a trio of assists.

The Dane is the most captained of that trio, with 84,608 FPL managers backing him with the armband.

Son could be the big differential. Handed the captaincy by just 32,917 FPL managers, the South Korean international has averaged seven points per home match this season.

Furthermore, he served up two goals and an assist in the corresponding fixture with the Hornets last term.

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

      Depends how far behind you are and how different your teams are. If a long way and similar teams go Auba, but I’d say 90% chance Jesus outscores him sonif you are within 25 and have other diffs id go Jesus

            10 GWs ago I would have said Alonso.

            Now, I'd say Azpilicueta, just because you know he'll play every single remaining game for Chelsea and he's not a bad shout for an odd assist here and there either.

            Think Alonso will play, but probably not both games so his appeal has to be somewhat diminished.

            The most obvious advantage for Alonso is that in the game that he might play in, he could feasibly grab a goal. I've had him earlier in season and only been left feeling frustrated by him so I'd definitely go Azpilicueta.

          *Disclaimer, person who I was speaking to did not have a source.

          Anyways, they said David Silva may be given time off now that City has wrapped the league off to tend to his personal matters. They said he will most likely play HUD since that's where they will be lifting the trophy at home, then will be given time off.

          True or not, it's definitely a tough choice, since Sane or even Bernado Silva could be just as good of picks, or better. What is everyone's opinions on this?

              Can't do that option mate as I only have 2 transfers to use and I'm using Sterling for one of those. Already own Alli also.

              I've just been thinking about it and think I want to hold Mahrez, expect a Leicester response and Wham and Arsenal at home are perfect opportunity to put things right.

              So the Q now is more - Alli + Arnautovic or Son + Pogba --- leaning towards Alli Arny because both guaranteed 2 starts in the double you'd think

            leave an ambitious club with a winning team and a great squad, to join a club with no ambition?

              Allegri is earning 3m a year at Juve, could easily triple his salary at Arsenal (Wenger is on 10m a year)

          What's the skinny on Danilo? Is he nailed while Walker is injured?

          Just read these comments on a news site: "It’s believed Walker suffered a groin strain that would mean he’d miss City’s remaining matches this season. If Walker is indeed injured for the rest of the campaign, that could afford Danilo a few more matches to impress."

            I am undecided about him, thinking of him, or Smalling or Cedric.

              Looking at the other premium attacking defenders, Danilo seems as a good a best as any.

              Trippier might play both DGW games but just as feasible is Aurier replacing him. Looks like Davies will be nailed as Rose is injured, but I'm not too sure on whether he's forecast to return anytime soon.

              Alonso/Emerson is a minefield too - Conte doesn't like to experiment too much and I'd be surprised if Alonso was completely omitted from the squad for this DGW.

              It seems that LB is much less certain than RB and if Walker is out it's very feasible for Danilo to slot in there. Hasn't Danilo even played LB at times for City this season too?

              I'd say Danilo is a good shout but Azpilicueta is 100% nailed for rest of season and I can't see any reason why Valencia wouldn't play the remaining games either. It just depends on your budget I guess.
