Trippier starts but key Spurs men remain out of first XI

Kieran Trippier (£6.3m) is set for a tenth consecutive league start as Tottenham Hotspur visit Wolves this evening.

The right-back has been considered a rotation risk in the past but he has been ever-present since returning from the World Cup with Serge Aurier (£5.8m) largely consigned to the bench.

However, a large number of key Spurs men remain out of the first XI with Christian Eriksen (£9.2m) and Son Heung-min (£8.3m) on the bench for a third match in a row.

Dele Alli (£8.9m) is left out of the match day squad altogether, despite a comeback from injury in the League Cup midweek.

Juan Foyth, not in FPL yet, starts at centre-back with Davinson Sánchez (£5.8m) on the bench.

Meanwhile, hosts Wolves make one change to the side that lost at Brighton in Gameweek 10, with Adama Traore (£5.4m) dropping out for Ivan Cavaleiro (£5.3m).

Wolves XI: Patricio; Boly, Coady, Bennett; Jonny, Moutinho, Neves, Doherty; Caveleiro, Jimenez, Costa

Spurs XI: Lloris, Trippier, Alderweireld, Foyth, Davies, Sissoko, Dembele, Winks, Lamela, Lucas, Kane.

    Spurs paid 30 mil for Sissoko.....

      Pool paid 50 for Fabinho.

        He is a novice in this division- unlike Siss.

        Should have been sent off earlier too.

    This is a complete HORROR SHOW today.

    1. All The Aces

      I'm in the top 100,000. 8 players = 18 points. Shocking!

      1. The Enlightener
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I went from 50k area to 200k region over the last two gameweeks, if that makes you feel any better.

        1. Make Arrows Green Again
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          I went from 23k to 133k in one GW last week. We go again.

          1. All The Aces
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Trippier currently top scorer on 5!

            1. Make Arrows Green Again
              • 7 Years
              5 years, 5 months ago

              I got 31 last week...

    Waiting for my beautiful Kane Bracelet to arrive

  4. Shatner's Bassoon
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Kane to end up with max bps somehow.

  5. Royal5
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Raul sold that pen very well. Fooled Mike Dean.

    1. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      It was there for the taking.

  6. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Neves racking up pen area touches. Essential?

    1. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Better than Sanchez.

    2. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Look down

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Damn, it's big.

    3. dark91
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I have had him for 8 GWs and sold him this GW. Believe me when I tell you he is very frustrating to own

  7. The Enlightener
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    That was the first touch in the opponent's box for Neves this season. 😯

  8. Tsparkes10

    Only thing that went eight for me today was playing jimenez over doherty

      1. ChelseaKTBFF
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I mean he still had a decent ppm. I had him from the start for his beautiful 9 point debut

        1. BigBillyBass
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          12*

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      1. ChelseaKTBFF
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

  13. Fred54
    • 9 Years

    7. Make Arrows Green Again
      • 7 Years

    1. barracuda
      • 7 Years

  15. Differentiator
    • 8 Years

    First time Spurs have scored 3 goals since August 27th

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Warming up nicely for GW15

    2. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      When do they play Man United again?

  16. Kepa's at the wheel
    • 14 Years

    Can Spurs please get a pen for Rui to save?

  17. Bennison

    Foster/Hart
    Alonso/Laporte/Trips/Doherty/AWB
    Hazard/Salah/KDB/Fraser/Camarasa
    Lacazette/Wilson/Quaner

    1FT 0.4ITB

    My gambe with KDB has completely back fired.

    Should I save the FT and do KDB + Quaner -> Maddison + Arnie?

    Any other moves?.

  18. el polako
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    What a pass !

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Doherty is World Class

  19. JustPark
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Too bad KdB is injured again. Messed up Aguero to Arnie and get KdB plan instead of losing Laca.

  20. Fred54
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    WHAT. A. CHANCE.

  21. diesel001
    • 7 Years

  23. barracuda

  26. Niho992
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    as a Jimenez owner (on the bench) very painful to watch, especially if he scores.

    1. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Nah. Just safe in the knowledge that he’s there when you need him.

      1. Niho992
        • 5 Years
