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.

    Salah for:
    A) richarlson
    B) madison

    1. billysupertramp

      4-0 (for nothing)

      This is a strange situation

    3. Dannyb

      No

      If you mean bringing in Salah - then bring Salah in for Maddison
      If you mean getting rid of Salah - then don't do it

        Burnley next though. Maddison was very dissapointing today.

      Why are you selling before Fulham at home? They have the worst defence in the league

    7. Nightf0x
      • 8 Years

      Sorry guys, mistyping i meant getting salah in

  2. Dannyb

    Anyone considering Anderson Arnie double up? I could do Mitrovic to fodder and Hoiberg to Anderson for -4, very tempting.

    1. billysupertramp
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Anderson yes if is in your starting eleven.

      1. Dannyb
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah he is, would go to a 3-5-2.
        Patricio
        Alonso Shaw Bennett
        Mane Sterling Mahrez Hazard Anderson
        Laca Arnie

      Nah

    3. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Me, Laca and Billing would be out

    4. Drexl Spivey
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      -4 to enhance your bench?

      1. Dannyb
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        I'm looking at the bigger picture tbh.

  3. The Train Driver

    Doherty getting plenty of space, too bad none of his teammates seem to see it...

    1. Bruce Lee
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      It's like this every game, he always has space...

      1. The Train Driver
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Haven't watched too many wolves games

    D’oh...erty

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      He could still score

  10. Chucky
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Wolves CS Buh bye

  11. Ha.
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    And people STILL don’t rate Lamela

    1. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Not really

      1. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        So many doubters. The man is on fire, though.

        Got called up for Argentina recently too.

      Lamela is mint, I’d be all over him if he was nailed on.

      1. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        His PPM is off the chart - don’t think it matters if he doesn’t play 90

    3. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Well after that historical post Lamela played for Rome in France it was difficult to take him seriously around here

  12. FPL Daniel
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    Doherty owners?

    1. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      There have been spotted in the wild.

    2. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…

      Waiting for a goal

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        He might score

  13. Dr Robotnik
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 months ago

    I can't help but notice that this site is so much more hostile than it used to be. People arguing and sniping at each other all the time. Why has it become like this? Is it a reflection of the game becoming more popular, or a reflection of society in general changing? Everyone is always so angry!

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Its always been like this but perhaps not as bad.

    2. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Because of stupids posts like this by idiots like you!

      1. Dr Robotnik
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Lol. If this is supposed to be ironic then I commend your dry sense of humour. If not, then wow...

      2. SPorting
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        It was too easy.

        1. SPorting
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 6 months ago

          And you were right.

    3. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      I am happy 😀

    4. Rage Against The Raheem

      The internet is full of annoying angry people, just try to ignore it.

    5. MTPockets
        5 years, 6 months ago

        More people, rolling format, repetition

      • 007 [RoboKlopp]
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        Agree mate, maybe because the game is more stressful now.

    6. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Lamela has been in great form this season.

    7. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Lamela again

      1. Chucky
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 6 months ago

        brace?

    8. Dannyb
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Come on Pat pen save. My only hope now.

    9. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Martial form is insane. Really fancy getting him and/or Rich in (only one of for now though)

      Shame that they'll likely rise given their fixtures next week. Do we reckon they could still deliver?

    10. Bialystrzelec
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      Awful week

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years

        really truly so far.

    11. Ghost Gooner
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 6 months ago

      If they were nailed Lamela Barkley Martial would be great options

      1. twoplustwo
        • 9 Years

        Martial is now

      wolves bubbles bursting.
