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.

    What are people with DDG doing with him?

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Cursing him.

    2. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I've saying I'm going to sell since GW1 but unusually for me, I've been unable to comprehend my error after finally being won over to a premium keeper after 9 years of playing. Until now, dissatisfaction with Bilva and Richarlison means I'll downgrade and upgrade outfield.

    3. HamezMace
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Keeping, away to Burnley.

    4. Pigsinblankets
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Honestly, I don't know. Would prefer to drop to a 4.5 and use the money to upgrade Richarlison, but his next run of games are quite appealing...

  9. Adro3
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Is Cairney out for long. Got Tomkins too

  10. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Keep or ditch Shaw? Best player but playing for the worst confident team.

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

      Keep. Like i keep saying amazing value while he keeps his place

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Keep.

      Looks like Uniteds best chance of points at the moment.

    3. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Why would you keep? He's in a sinking ship with a captain that is going to be fired soon. What's he got so far? Goal and assist vs two weak teams and no CS's? Surely there's better for the money.

    4. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      "Best player for the worst team" implies there's points for artistic interpretation. It could be Leo Messi there but if the team keeps conceding and losing he won't get points. His goal and assist were against weak teams.

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

    They won't fire Mourinho for awhile they put up with a whole year of Moyes!

  12. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Richarlison, Pogba and Arnie owner. 1ft and 0itb.
    Any tips?

    1. Jeremy Corbyn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Sell

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Wait.

    3. WVA
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Just swap Richarlison

    4. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Depends on how long you think Mourinho stays. I can imagine Pogba having a new lease of life when Mou has gone. Might play like he does for France and did for Juve.

  13. Claudio555
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Any risk Mitrovic will play tomorrow's cup game? Or is it safe to buy him tonight?

  14. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Dead man walking.

  15. Rainer

    2. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years

    3. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      No he didn’t, he said it was the fastest going forward

    4. Zilla
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      That's true

    5. RÏɠBY
      • 14 Years

    6. Annie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      no he didn't

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

      Why the hell do you feel he need to exaggerate his statements?

  16. TOBY1

    Jose singing for his supper at the Stratford end...

  17. Nicks93
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Mou is gone

    He looks like a dead man walking

    1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      He looks like Pellegrini?

  18. AC Me Rollin
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Lucas or Mkhi on WC

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Mkhi

  19. Skalla
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Mourinho going straight to Shaw , prob likes him more after tonight as the only defender to play well!

    1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Nah, he hates him. Will never forgive him for turning him down at Chelsea for United.

  20. Niho992
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Bought mikhy for moura 🙁

    1. Adro3
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Same :/ Will pay off in long run hopefully

      1. Niho992
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Hope so mate, but moura is so offensive almost play as striker

    2. JJO
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Me too
      High five 🙂

      1. Inspector Norse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        ..and me

    3. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I think it'll pay off. Who predicted tonight apart from some Harry Hindsight who will no doubt pop up saying it was obvious. Nobody would have predicted a Moura goal and assist.

  21. Dynamic Duos
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    It is like people just read what they want , I was saying I wanted Lucas before he even scored the first goal, he passed the eye in the first half his position and attack minded approach, he is the best replacement for Richarlison, if you haven't seen the match just trust me his is the man.

    1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      They won't be playing Man Ute every week.

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      2 shots

    3. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Yea, another extreme overperformer in xG, the perfect Richa replacement.

    4. Pigsinblankets
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Only if you have £ ITB, not as simple as Rich to Walcott/Pedro

  22. Dyslexia Untied FC
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Urgh. Made a move for mkhi before tonight’s game could have been moura...

  23. adstomko
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    I'm going to wildcard right now before the prices go up. Worth it? I'm 30,000th so far

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Why mention rank?

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

        because given my position, wasn't sure if it was worth WC'ing

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          How can we know without your team posted? Subtle brag imo
