Harry Kane (£12.5m) and Kieran Trippier (£6.2m) were both named in the starting line-up for Spurs ahead of their appealing meeting with Cardiff.

Son Heung-min (£8.3m) is also set to start the match. All three players have received a boost in ownership this week with Cardiff expected to be put to the sword.

However, the biggest Fantasy Premier League talking point of the day was the fact that Richarlison (£6.7m) has been deployed as a centre-forward for Everton at Leicester.

The Brazilian has operated predominantly from the left-flank of attacking midfield this season but has been given licence to get further forward at the King Power Stadium today.

Ricardo Pereira (£5.1m) returns to defence for Leicester having been used in midfield last week, while key figures Jamie Vardy (£9.0m) and James Maddison (£6.9m) also start.

Ashley Barnes (£5.7m) and Sam Vokes (£5.3m) lead the line for Burnley against Huddersfield, while the Terriers have opted to ditch the five-at-the-back system and line-up in a 4-4-1-1 formation.

Wilfried Zaha (£7.0m) starts up front once again for Crystal Palace while Wolves name an unchanged side at Selhurst Park.

Francisco Kiko Femenia (£4.2m) comes in at right-back for Watford as the only change to the side that lost at Arsenal last week, while Ryan Fraser (£6.0m), Callum Wilson (£6.3m) and Josh King (£6.3m) all start for Bournemouth.

    Fraser where are youuuuuu

  3. GXNG
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    First L of the season. King to Arnie

  4. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Wilson needs to man up and bully King into giving him pens back 🙁

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      King was off the pitch on Monday and Wilson still didn't take it. Seems to have lost all pull after the miss.

      1. Ógie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        King was subbed off just before the pen was given in that game.

    2. Bragazeti
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      He'll have to bully Stanislas too. I see him backing off

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Why? King scores, Wilson misses

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        This

  5. IRBOX ⚽
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Kane looks very bad, just as he has done all season. Selling Kun and -4’s generally are such silly decisions. Salah, hazard and Aguero to punish

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Just because he scored against Hudds innit

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        That’s right blud

    2. JustPark
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Looks fine on the article banner though. Lad even checking on him.

  6. Emiliano Sala
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Benched wilson for awb
    Damn

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Never bench a playing Striker

      1. Emiliano Sala
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        easy to say after he got his points

    2. FourLokoLeipzig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I did the same but with King

  7. Drogo
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Started J.King for 7 gameweeks, benched him now. Fml!

  8. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Fraser, knockaert, kabasele. ATM these 3 are gonna leave my team.

  9. The Red Devil
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Did king to vardy on WC last night, should i buy him back now?

    1. GXNG
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      This is his first goal from open play..

  10. tafrère
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero -> Kane is not looking good for now. Very poor performance by Spurs in general, not convinced at all.

    1. Texas Pete
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      No, especially not for a hit.

  11. Maddamotha
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    My fellow norwegian King, get in homeboi

  12. EMERGING STAR
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Last minute decision to play King and Bench WanB. Not going bad.

  13. JustPark
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Time to axe Fraser?

    1. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I’d keep for next 2.

      1. JustPark
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Great minds?

    2. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I did 3 weeks ago

    3. tafrère
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      He played really well and was involved in every construction. I'd keep for now, he's a really good player and will get some assists/goals for sure, maybe in 2nd half.

  14. #FPLBhuna
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Shocking first half

    14 from 8

    45 min Kane captain fail

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      1 from 1 🙂

      1. #FPLBhuna
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        What.. really? Surely not

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Yip - City, Liverpool, Arsenal, Fulham, Chelsea, Soton ...

    2. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      7 from 7

  15. Mr. Hindsight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    King first sub, got Trips in & benched him lol...

  16. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Wilson 3 assist in 70 games, now 7 asssits in 8 games, must be improved and turn into a better player, not the old Wilson --> season keeper

    1. tafrère
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      1 assist of the 2 was a missed sitter though lol.

  17. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Who is 1st on the bench for the Holebas no show

  18. The Mastermind
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    This game seriously infuriates me. Kane playing the worst team in the league and decide he wants to play CDM. Bournemouth running riot and Fraser is on 1 point.

    1. Sz21
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Cardiff looking more dangerous too.

    2. Bragazeti
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      That CDM bit is hilarious

  19. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Feel for those that might have shipped King

    1. drughi
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      no you don't lol

  20. OldBenKenobi
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Having a shocker. It all started with Arnautovic(c) 🙁

    1. G-Whizz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Ouch 🙁

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      He's matching the top captaincy pick this week at least.

  21. drughi
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    That feeling when you realise that the team before wildcard would do as good as your wildcard team but now you don't have your wildcard anymore

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Ouch

    2. Vamos Los Celeste
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      the week i played the wc i got a gw rank of 4.5m and then took me to 4k

  22. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Sancho another assist for Dortmund

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Good thing he left to get some game time, its paying off big

  23. L'Aeroplanino
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    I thought GW8 was suppose to be fun

    1. MTPockets
        7 years, 6 months ago

        For Aguero owners

    2. McDog
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      King hatty please

    3. Regin
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I feel like screaming!!! Played free hit, wat a waste!!! Original team has Ryan, richarlison, Wilson. That's already 25-30 pts. Played fh to get Spurs and manu players. Useless Kane, Lamela benched!

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Such a waste. Patience separates the average FPL players from the best

        1. Regin
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Don't think 36k rank is average. Last year I waited patiently till dgw34 to free hit but that was a flop as well. So this time played it early.

      2. Rash
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Played FH to get man United players? More fool you am afraid.

        1. Regin
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Shaw and smalling. No attackers. Triple Spurs but Lamela benched. Never thought Cardiff will play so good.

      3. Trajan
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        In Wembley no one can hear you scream.

    4. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Any chance Shaw doesn't show up today?

    5. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Those that avoided Kane this week are laughing!

      1. TAT
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        They really are. We who couldn't find a big enough sofa and got him, are having a bad GW…

      2. MTPockets
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Give me an hour

        • Deli Alli OxenFree!
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Pretty much!....lol
          Unfortunately, I pussed-out, I went for Kane at the last minute—instead of sticking to my guns, and bringing in a Lacazette like I wanted to(and was supposed to do)!...gd!
          Seriously hating myself for letting ‘Kane-Fear’ and FPL-Money make my decision instead of my logic!! (would’ve had 4.3mil left ItB if i’d done the Laca move)
          Uuuhhhh! I’ll never learn

      3. Zilla
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Doherty goal would be nice.

      4. F4L
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Everton's front 4 look really good as a unit, all interchanging

        1. McDog
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          They're far better without Tosun

      5. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Not on a ton of points but delighting in all the Kane fails so far. All the people selling Kun for him are gonna look so silly in two weeks

        1. Weasel Boy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          No cos my plan was always to buy him back 🙂
