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.

HUDDERSFIELD TOWN XI: Lossl, Durm, Zanka, Schindler, Lowe, Hogg, Mooy, Van La Parra, Billing, Pritchard, Depoitre

    doherty very popular on this site (i dont have him), surely there must some good scores out there ?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Top 1000 average 30

    2. HNI
      8 years, 21 days ago

      His 30+ penalty touches is swooning me now

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Currently on 39/40 (depending on Richarlison BAPs).
      Still have Hazard (C), Alonso, Salah, Robertson, Aguero, Mitrovic to play.

      Some Kane (C)-ers have still done alright though. One in my league with Ryan/Doherty/Wilson/Fraser/Richarlison + 5 players to go.

  4. Eytexi
    8 years, 21 days ago

    1FT, 0.7m ITB.

    Fabianski
    Pereira, Robbo, Alonso
    Salah (C), Hazard, Rich, Fraser
    Arnie, Aguero, Mitro (VC)

    Subs: Hamer, Bennett, Westwood, AWB.

    Thinking Pereira to TAA is the move that needs doing. Any suggestions?

    1. tsm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I’d watch alonso today and if he doesn’t get up field much again would think of freeing up the cash in him

      1. Rusty71
        8 years, 21 days ago

        Who is Alonso playing against today?

        1. Eytexi
          8 years, 21 days ago

          Southampton Tomorrow

      2. Eytexi
        8 years, 21 days ago

        And start TAA, Robbo and Bennett in GW9?

  5. stat
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Third captaincy blank in a row
    GW 6 Hazard vs whu = 3 pts
    GW 7 Richarlison vs FUL = 3 pts
    GW 8 Kane vs CAR = 1 pt

    My goalies have almost outscored my captains this season

    1. HNI
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Gw 6 and 7 was too punty anyway. Maybe learn from mistakes and captain Salah/Kun next gw?

      1. stat
        8 years, 21 days ago

        GW 6 was the only time this season Hazard blanked. He's a valid captaincy option, not a punt.
        Richarlison was a punt but the fixture looked very good and I expected Everton to score a lot (which they did), but sadly he wasn't involved.
        Probably Kun (C) next GW once I bring him back for Kane.

  6. HNI
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Learned from last season of not knee jerking Kane in and out just for short time. What you think Rhino? And no it wasnt a calculated decision after moral draining Barca loss.

      Dude really. No need for that kind of braggery.

    2. GoonSquad
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Real question is if Kane had a brace and assist would you have posted that and said "I'm an idiot for not knee jerking him in."

  7. Kiwi Don
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Vardy and Kane you have ruined my weekend.

  8. Bees4Lyf
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Missed the deadline for the first time in years yesterday, was extremely frustrated last night. But I feel better today with the Kane blank, as I wouldve brought him in. But the (C) sits on Aguero from last week, need some luck.

    1. HNI
      8 years, 21 days ago

      You already have luck of not bringing Kane in be happy with that for now 🙂

    2. Rash
      8 years, 21 days ago

      High chance aguero does better

    3. GoonSquad
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Did same...was pissed staring at 9 points on bench from Ryan and missing Mane + Kun to Knockaert + Kane (c).

      May work out okay, now no clue what to do with 2 transfers.

  9. Gashead9
    8 years, 21 days ago

    50 post baps with Salah, Kun, Alonso & Mitro to play decent score even with (K)ane fail?

    1. Planet Head
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Really good. Well done!

    2. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Yes, as well you know.

  10. JustPark
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Looks like keeping WC intact. Again.

  11. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Need to ship Zaha. But for who?? So many good alternatives in that bracket.

    1. Tsparkes10
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Jimenez and bank

    2. Eytexi
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Mitro

    3. Rusty71
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Murray!

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        8 years, 21 days ago

        Fixtures looking mighty juicy

  12. BON
    8 years, 21 days ago

    The only thing better than the Kane (C)'ers failing is watching Mourinho about to get sacked.

  13. Werner Bremen
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Hahahah where are the so called veteran players now, that have told me how Kane is a must this week xD
    Good I'm still thinking straight and got Vardy instead. Hazard is my captain all the way!

    1. Tsparkes10
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Im in exact same boat

    2. GENERATION X
      8 years, 21 days ago

      miies ahead of you in so many ways

      1. Werner Bremen
        8 years, 21 days ago

        I'm in the top 20k, and you Rigbone? 😀

  14. Tsparkes10
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Schmeical conceded 2 but still 3 points... guessing he made a few saves

    1. Rainer
      8 years, 21 days ago

      6, with a good double save.

      Everton front 4 created something nearly every time they went forward.

  15. FootballFanatic365
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Stop me Hold me

    Imma Knee jerk and Knee jerk Hard

  16. TheSteel
    8 years, 21 days ago

    King or Wilson on WC?

  17. Deulofail
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Only 29 points from Wolves defence this week. Livid.

  18. AIRMILES
    8 years, 21 days ago

    New article

  19. Podge
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Now for Hazard fail to let the Kane cappers off the hook

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 21 days ago

      He literally just needs to avoid being booked to outscore

    2. tsm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Saved

  20. DROP IT LIKE IT'S HART
    8 years, 21 days ago

    We've been here with Kane before. People just never learn.

    1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Same.Its not that easy to recover from a UCL game

    2. socho
      8 years, 21 days ago

      wouldn't say that if he had scored 2, it was vey likely

  21. Bartowski
    8 years, 21 days ago

    What would be an acceptable amount of points from your (boosted) bench for you?

  22. thunder_mike
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Thoughts on this WC team

    Pat Fab
    TAa Robertson Alonso Doherty WanB
    Sterling Haz Richarlison Maddison Masuaka
    Mitro Arnie Kun

  23. Moorinho
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Really want Walcott out now, and finally have no other pressing transfers.

    Only .3 in the bank though, so the options are:
    1. Richarlison
    2. Gudmundsson
    3. Pedro
    4. Yarmolenko/Anderson

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 21 days ago

      1

  24. BDMC5
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Double digit point hauls from cheap defenders always been a bit pet hate of mine. It extremely rare of course but Doherty with 25 in 2 and Patr not far behind is incredible!

  25. De Gea Van Dijk. 10
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Seriously considering a Wilson,King double bubble.

    1. GENERATION X
      8 years, 21 days ago

      the points went thataway

  26. Gruu
    8 years, 21 days ago

    No international match for aguero, am i right?

    1. The Overthinker
      8 years, 21 days ago

      You are

    2. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Yarp.

  27. socho
    8 years, 21 days ago

    For me if you didn't have Kane captain this week, then you are not playing the game right or did not plan well and got lucky. And luck turns...

    1. Dickie1898
      8 years, 21 days ago

      LOL

    2. GENERATION X
      8 years, 21 days ago

      few in my ML have clearly missed deadline and left it on kun even though they have kane

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Mate, come off it!

      To get Kane in I would have to have taken a -4.

      Still content with Hazard, Salah & Aguero thank you very much.

      1. BDMC5
        8 years, 21 days ago

        To be content without a player who had 22 point in 2 , scored vs barca and had Cardiff at home down to 10 men is easy to say after the fact.

        That before you get into salah forms, Aguero not scoring at Anfield haha. Hilarious comment

    4. Werner Bremen
      8 years, 20 days ago

      Ahahahahaha

  28. GENERATION X
    8 years, 21 days ago

    no point looking back but if only id kept mendy instead of selling for doherty
