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.

    United penalty or non penalty are ridiculous always have been.

    They will be mid table once VAR comes in

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

      They’ll be mid table under Mourinho at this rate.

    2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …

      Agree with this . Saw a chart that said they got the most points from wrong decisions last season our of all the prem

      Pool where worse off

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …

  2. Dickie1898

    Yet another shocker from the officials. PL refs are a disgrace, so poor.

  3. Sandy Ravage
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Shove in the back from the wrong side of the ball, definite penalty

    1. Jack Sparrow

      Someone with a brain and an IQ level above 10. I agree.

  4. Jack Sparrow

    Shoulder to shoulder 🙂 People seriously believe that. The IQ levels on this site are abysmal.....

      The contact was not shoulder!

    Clear pen. Jones scythes him down with his thigh

  6. tm245

    Do they still award baps if every player ends up on -BPS?

    1. Jafooli

    Shocking decision

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Old Trafford decision.

    2. Jack Sparrow
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I agree. They should never have signed Lukaku. Utter garbage.

      1. Cok3y5murf
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        He was fantastic at Everton and still good for Belgium. Mou ruined him

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

          And West Brom!

  8. Dynamic Duos
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Lucas Moura actually looks a decent player

    1. Marvin.
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Utd that bad?

    2. OldBenKenobi
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      He really does

    3. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Another townsend or Adama to me

    4. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      He is a decent player. Couldn't get his chance at PSG with the talent around.

  9. Sterling is £11Mill..…
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    hopefully Rose gets subbed for Baies who comes on to score the winner

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      That’s not how you spell one pointer

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

    Time to hook Rose off 😆

    How's Pogba been playing?

    1. SPorting
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      He’s been lying down a lot.

      1. Livinginapool - Top 100 Any…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Worth every penny right there. Probably still score a penalty.

        Just putting the game on. Is he playing further forwards?

        1. SPorting
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Not really.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years

            Cheers.

            Slowly moving off my radar

    2. Paulie Walnuts
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Not good enough for me to keep hold of him

  12. BON
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    I should have a shave tonight so I don't have to wake up so early to get ready for work tomorrow.

    1. Marvin.
      • 9 Years

      Use you new phone.

      1. BON
        • 12 Years

        Yeah maybe the S-Pen might work on my beard.

  13. LǝgleSs e|even
    • 9 Years

    Hows Pogba performing so far?

    1. Pariße
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Close to scoring just now

  14. Pariße
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Can’t see a criteria by which this is not a penalty. It was pretty obvious live.

  15. TOBY1
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Non surprise united voted against var

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

      This. Although Ferguson would probably be in the VAR box intimidating them anyway.

  16. SPorting
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Lloris showed a lot of bottle there.

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Snore

  17. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Utd looking suprisingly sharp.

    Shaw season keeper

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      So far he has been their best player

    2. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      It’s more that spurs are playing so bad

  18. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Pogba really is a cocky player. Quite dislikeable.

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Quite is an understatement

    2. Jack Sparrow
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Cocky? He is another average Joe at average united.

  21. Smurf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    Tripper marking Matic at corners is a joke.

    Spurs fans singing about Lloris' drink driving? Classy.

    1. Beatle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      What about United fans singing about going on the piss with an alcoholic?

      1. Rash
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        George best? Completely different

        1. Beatle
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          His family requested they stop singing it. Very respectful that

      2. Fantastisk
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        They're just as classless.

  26. Zladan
    • 8 Years

    Hugo Lloris, he’s still on the piss.

  27. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
