    Anyone know how long Lamela is meant to be out for?

    I am buzzing for this man. Hopefully this is me at 2:30....

      Who you got Parm?

      1. Parm
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Kane.

  3. diesel001

    5 years, 8 months ago

    Kane like Salah. Only worth having if perma-captain.

    1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Agreed

    2. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Kane a captaincy troll and is the opposite of perma-captain material

      1. stilicho
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Not sure how that makes sense

        1. Cok3y5murf
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Please. 217 points x2? That would be a disaster

          1. stilicho
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 13 Years
            5 years, 8 months ago

            No idea what you're trying to convey at this point

            1. Cok3y5murf
              • 7 Years
              5 years, 8 months ago

              I'm saying 434 points total from captaincy over the season is too low

              1. stilicho
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 13 Years
                5 years, 8 months ago

                Oh you were beimg serious. I see

      2. Ron_Swanson
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        only a troll if you don't captain hi all the time. perma captain makes sense

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      FPL should have a perma-captain button .... that you can not reverse ... for those with a weak will 🙂

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Perma-captainers are mentally limited though...

  4. Piggs Boson
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    26.7% of players own Trippier and he's not even on the bench.

    1. Leeds2116
      • 6 Years

      fun times haha

    2. Desperately Seeking Dusan

      The England effect. People in my MLs have a whole bunch of them.

    3. De Gea Van Dijk. 10

    4. THFC4LIFE

      Price drop in coming

    5. Jafooli
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Bet they have Shaw coming on......disgusting filthy casuals

    6. noquarternt
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Shaw 5.3 incoming.

  5. zizoo10
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Kane is no longer “due”. He’s way past that, the word is just not sufficient enough. His August goal scoring record has been dormant for so long it’s built up and Gona erupt over everyone’s face.

    1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      There is always a danger of a reversion to the mean because there’s no logical reason for not scoring in August.

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I think you're about to 'erupt'

  6. Squires FC
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    C'mon Harry! Lets get this august hoodoo out the way

  7. LangerznMash
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    We really need the Kane August drought to continue...

  8. Giovanni Giorgio
    • 10 Years

    Terrified of Kane

  9. Granville
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Any other Lucas Moura owners?

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Yea boy and Bavies

    2. Cofinho
      • 7 Years

      Me

    3. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Yep and Davies

      1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        You have excellent taste :p

    4. Adro3
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Yep

    5. Marvin Moon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I've avoided spurs all together though I'm not sure why.

      1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        There is a lot of uncertainty. Only team not to strengthen, they struggled at Wembley and now have another “home” again not to mention players who wanted to move.

    6. El Matador
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Ye feel confident

    7. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I was thinking of it but just wasn’t sure about Spurs in the end... not just this game but the new “home” etc too.

      1. Ginola14
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Oh yes

    8. DAZZ
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Here. Happy to see son benched. Means Lucas could see a few more weeks with a good performance today. A goal would be brilliant. 2.4% owned

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Son is away at the Asia cup for a month so I was sure he would play. He went totally under the radar.

    9. Ron_Swanson
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      yes!

    10. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years

      yep

    11. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Yup!

    12. Oooof

      Yes

    13. BRKFCTrueRover
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Yes mate hopefully he nicks the goals off kane! But just feel kane is going to get a hatty against a shambolic Newcastle

    14. Benteke10
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Aye

  10. Siggy in the Middle
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Kane gonna score a brace today. Not a Spurs fan or Kane owner (got no one in his game) but I just feel it.

    1. LangerznMash
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Kane ownership already on the rise...
      1300 transfers in.

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      This.

      Punishment for non-owners coming.

      Just hope Eriksen assists him to soften the blow for me. No doubt Spurs will get 5 and Kane and Lucas share them with no assists for Eriksen.

      1. LangerznMash
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Something like this happened to me last season. Saw the result and the team had scored 5 goals, checked my FPL and my forward only had 2 points!

        1. Kane Toads
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          at the end of the day it's still only GW1

  11. Adro3
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Moura brace and Newcastle win isn't too much to ask for?!

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      reasonable request

    2. Kane Toads
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I'll ask Harry to put the brakes on!

    8. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I think Huddersfield will be relegated wouldn’t surprise me if they were the whipping boys this season.
      Cardiff at home will be the test GW3 they’ll most likely be on zero points Che/ManC followed by a trip to Everton

      Why care

    3. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years

      Let your blames begin

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Do you think the World Cup fears were over-egged?

        1. Cok3y5murf
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          I think it was mostly speculation, some reasonable and some more exaggerated.

          I think regarding lineups you should stop blaming so-called 'experts' if they get it wrong and make your own predictions with the information available.

          1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 8 months ago

            Exactly, nobody knows, often not even coaches until day before. It’s not like the Scoutcast are able to go to training sessions... only the same info as the rest of us and best efforts to judge.

            Everybody should take responsibility for their own choices. If the scouts are perceived to give such bad info, do the opposite....

    4. Differential C (Mark)
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      If Spirs reveet to a 3 CB formation, Bavies wouldve been LCB

    5. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      No - just that he'd been playing LCB in pre-season.

      It was pretty obvious he'd slot straight back into LB.

    6. Baps hunter

    BBC...

    Kane's August Premier League record reads:

    13 games, 898 minutes, 44 shots, 0 goals.

    He's due 😀

    1. Cofinho
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Bad feeling, he will score today

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        More than one too.

    2. Tev
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Already accepted his haul. Fingers crossed Eriksen is in on the assists

      1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Kane ain’t hauling guys, if he is lucky Lucas will let him celebrate one of his many goals with him

  18. Patty
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Wonder if Moura's managed to nail down a starting spot over Son long term.

    1. Marvin Moon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      He's not very good so i would be surprised.

    2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      If he plays well, sure

    3. Oooof
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I that’s the logic behind starting him today over Son.

      Give him time to bed in.

      1. Oooof
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Well, short to medium term at least.

      Oops

    2. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      At least 31.6% casuals confirmed

    3. yakirh
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      But probably no Salah or very poor squad

  20. Bialystrzelec
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    What you think about doubling on MCI wingbacks? I'm tempted to do that if Pep wants to play 3-5-2 at least occasionally. Third playrer would be KDB as a set and forget.

    1. Leeds2116
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      no kun u nuts?

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Not really nuts

      2. Bialystrzelec
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Currently I've him, but just considering different options. I definitely want KDB.

    2. Podge
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I’ve seen worse ideas

    3. yakirh
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Cant see Pep playing 3-5-2 vs lower sides
      Im going with Mendy KDB Kun. Think its pretty balanced

    4. Veggente85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I currently have Walker - Mendy - Aguero. I'm not a fan of expensive gk and wanted a defensive double up of city.

    Kane’s three celebrations today:

    Goal 1 - thumb sucking
    Goal 2 - rocking the baby
    Goal 3 - ball up jumper baby bump

    *vomits everywhere - morning sickness*

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Pfff, Kane has a poster of Lucas Moura on his bedroom wall

    2. Marvin Moon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Let's just hope we don't see any!

    3. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      As tedious and cliched as baby celebrations are, nothing is worse than the Sturridge dance.

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

      Why would Kane be celebrating Newcastle winning 3-0? 😉

    5. Bucky Barnes

      Why would he celebrate 1 of Newcastle's goals, let alone all 3?

    I never really get the “will punish non owners comments”... it’s always applied to top players who will nearly always score points. Take Kane for example, he was the top forward in the game, on average, he is quite obviously going to score. Non owners are only “punished” if he outscores the alternatives they put in place, often two upgraded players.

      Yeah but we're pessimists.

      Exactly.
      I think the problem is the language that has developed around fantasy football.
      'Coverage' is another one.
      Which is often misunderstood and misused by those on the scoutcast.

      I know, we would have all the top players if it was possible to afford them...

    4. F4L
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      of course. You can't have everyone

    5. noquarternt

      Mainly about % ownership.

      If Sturridge scores a brace, no one cares.

      If Kane scores a brace and 37% of players have him but you don't...

    According to fanstasy fix nearly 3000 people have transferred Sanchez out ???

      Rage transfers

    2. Podge

      He’s leaving my team for sure, was awful

        But he has brighton next and starting Lukaku to play off?
        in saying that he will be out of my team by gameweek 3 😀

        1. Podge
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Exactly 1 more go then some Arsenal coming in

    3. Desperately Seeking Dusan

      I think Kaku coming on 2nd half suggests he starts up front next game so Sanchez back to the wing. He was only ever a place holder for a lot of people and WC players all seem to be playing so far (mostly)

    “New season... same favourite #FPL captain

    1.5m managers have handed @MoSalah the armband - more than twice as many as 2nd-top pick Harry Kane“

      Not sure how FPL Discovery determines the “top 10k” but it says around 70% have him. And if you have him, you’re captaining.

    2. Saxe-Gotha

      A guy in my ML TC'd him.

    Spurs evens in bookies. Lump on them, newcastle are dire and spurs have a strong team

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years

      Moura brace confirmed

    2. Desperately Seeking Dusan

      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Are they really? Think I’ll have to get on... good odds and emotional hedge for me as an Arsenal fan and somebody with no Spurs in my FPL team.

      1. DAZZ
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah with some bookmakers, 1.91 with SkyBet, regardless they are super odds, -1 is a good bet, spurs line up is solid newcastle have been nailed pre season

      spurs -1 4/1 on william hill

    Do you think the Newcastle players will be able to see Kane in his camouflage kit?

    Anyone else close to getting Eriksen but couldn’t find a way to get him in?

    For me it was a choice between him and Mané

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah and I expect mane to outscore him over 3 weeks

      1. cylus11 ( Manager) - Russia…
        • 12 Years

        I got Eriksen over Mane.
        Look to go against the crowd.
        Kane up front can now help Eriksen.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          I took Mané over Eriksen because Kane wasn't supposed to play. Let's hope that August curse helps me!

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      It was always Mane for me.

      Probably change after today.

    3. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      If you have Mane I genuinely think in GW1 at least you’ll be better off.

    4. noquarternt

      Eriksen and KDB, nailed for 400pts.

    5. The Mighty Hippo
      • 7 Years

      I ended up just going with both of them.

    Kane has been my lord and saviour for the past few seasons.. this is the first season I’ve started without him now I am absolutely terrified looking at his name in the first XI.. all plans have been ripped up too he needs to come in to my team :/
