Reunion for Spurs’ attacking trio as Chelsea visit Wembley

Harry Kane (£12.3m) is set to play with both Christian Eriksen (£9.2m) and Dele Alli (£8.9m) in the Spurs’ starting line-up for the first time since Gameweek 4.

The talismanic striker has been considered out of sorts this season but that particular statistic just goes to prove how long it has been since Spurs’ attack has been at its best.

However, Mauricio Pochettino probably would have preferred a different fixture to get the trio back together as they face a Chelsea side still in good form.

Maurizio Sarri has named an unchanged side for Gameweek 13 with Mateo Kovacic (£5.9m) coming through an injury doubt to start ahead of Ross Barkley (£5.9m) for a second Premier League match in a row.

Eden Hazard (£11.2m) will be looking to punish those that triggered a price-fall on Friday night as he and fellow wide-man Willian (£7.4m) go up against Serge Aurier (£5.8m). The Ivory Coast international is making his first league start since Gameweek 1 after Kieran Trippier (£6.2m) was ruled out with injury.

Juan Foyth (£5.0m) also starts a third match in a row at centre-back.

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR XI: Lloris, Aurier, Foyth, Alderweireld, Davies, Sissoko, Dier, Eriksen, Son, Alli, Kane

CHELSEA XI: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Luiz, Alonso; Kovacic, Kante, Jorginho; Willian, Morata, Hazard

    Of the three most captained players two blanked and the other got one goal with no bonus points.

    The week's standout performer was only owned by about 15% of the top 10k.

    A bad captain choice or not owning Sterling shouldn't be the end of the world this week. A bit of perspective lads. 🙂

    Digne over Trent purely due the potential of being able to own Mane, Salah, Robertson simultaneously.

    And no Laporte to give scope to owning Aguero, Sterling and Silva or Sane simultaneously.

          I just might. I knew that Sané would be tasty and nearly got him in - would have been a hit for one of Siggy or Mané, though, so not much made or lost. May go for a triple city midfield to try climb the rankings a bit...

            Still think I'll keep it for Arse/Spurs players, but that's probably a mistake. I'd already made my FT so Sane was a -8 away, which would have actually been worth it in the end 😀

            Yeah that could work well obviously, until Mahrez starts!

              Honestly none from Arsenal or Spurs tickle my fancy. There's just better midfield options than Alli, Ozil, and Eriksen, Kane is overpriced no matter what, which maybe leaves Auba or Laca, accessible through FTS if nothing else

      Who needs Sterling when you can have Sane and 2m.

      Nail on head.

      You need Sterling.

      So do I.

      By any means necessary, as Malcolm X would say.

    I refuse to kneejerk Sterling in (yet anyway) for Salah. I have a strong feeling he'll troll, and Salah will score again.

    Sane also tempting, but as above.

        I'll be getting one/both of them. Scoring too many pts to avoid.

      Aguero and Hudson Odoi

      to

      Arnie and Sane

      after next gameweek is mightily tempting and means I move to a 3-5-2. Any rise by more than .1 for those two prices myself out...

        1. Arnie's (season long) injury
        2. Keep an eye on price changes
