A large portion of Fantasy managers are backing the key Spurs’ men for their Monday night trip to Manchester United.

Harry Kane (£12.5m) comes into the match as the most popular player and captained by just under 500,000+ managers.

Only Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) and Sergio Aguero (£11.2m) were backed by more in Gameweek 3, and the England captain needs two goal involvements to outshine them both.

Kieran Trippier (£6.0m) is the next most fashionable member of the Spurs squad, 24 percent of Fantasy managers hoping for a repeat of recent free-kicks scored against Croatia at the World Cup and Fulham in Gameweek 2.

Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea (£6.0m) remains owned by just over a quarter of managers, despite not yet keeping a clean sheet in 2018/19. Although with Spurs bringing plenty of attacking talent to Old Trafford, this match is unlikely to be the last straw for him.

The Spaniard is one of just two United players with double-figure ownership. The other one is Paul Pogba (£8.1m), currently backed by 18 percent following back-to-back converted penalties.

There will be some interest Christian Eriksen (£9.4m) and Dele Alli (£9.1m) with the Dane still just ahead of his English team-mate’s ownership, inspite of losing some set pieces duties to Trippier. Eriksen sits in 11 percent of squads with Alli in 7.6.

The secondary defenders (in terms of popularity) for each side are Luke Shaw (£5.1m) and Jan Vertonghen (£6.0m). The United man is in 8.7 percent of teams with Vertonghen in 10 percent.

SOMETHING ABOUT JOE AND WILLY BOLY.

    Hard to make a fair evaluation of Spur assets based on inconsistent ManU play. Both Spur goals should not have happened.

    1. Fantastisk
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Agreed - spurs won't play at Old Trafford every week.

    I don't get it , why didn't utd not sign Moura when he was available ,
    A classy player , from pig , brazilian , young , good track record of goals ,

    1. Maddi Son
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Keep Tompkins, he's a huge differential. 0% ownership.

    2. Gooner Kebab
      • 13 Years

  11. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Moaninho makes 6 changes because the performance at Brighton away was poor

    What is he going to do next week when losing at home to Spurs?

    1. Dr Van Nostrand
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      More changes nothing in Mourinho's world is ever his fault

  12. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Get booked Bavies. Complete the misery.

  13. Robson-Canoe
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    United have had 19 shots so far, haven't seen that many in a long time. The most during the Mourinho era?

    1. Licious Lizard
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Not by a long shot. You don’t remember some of the 1-1 games the year before last. 20+ shots on goal

      1. Robson-Canoe
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        True, I remember Ibra wasting so many easy chances

  14. Drip Doctor
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    And just as i consider getting Trippier, there is the risk, MP throws on two full backs.

    1. Jayv807
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      The 1 point cameos are the killer.
