Harry Kane (£12.5m) owners are in despair after he was named on the bench for tonight’s game against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

Mauricio Pochettio has shuffled his pack ahead of Tottenham’s crunch tie against Barcelona on Tuesday night. Midfield maestro Christian Eriksen (£9.3m) is another who finds himself on the bench.

Son Heung-min (£8.4m) looks set to lead the line in Kane’s absence. The South Korean has been in fine form in recent weeks with two goals and an assist in his last three appearances. It will be no surprise to see him register more attacking returns tonight.

Ben Davies (£5.6m) starts ahead of Danny Rose (£5.8m) while Dele Alli (£8.9m) comes back in to the starting XI having come off the bench against Southampton in Gameweek 15. Jan Vertonghen (£5.9m) also returns having served his suspension.

Harry Maguire (£5.4m) is named amongst the substitutes for Leicester City. Kelechi Iheanacho (£5.9m) leads the line again in the absence of the injured Jamie Vardy (£8.9m).

James Maddison (£6.8m) owners will be hoping he can find the back of the net for the third consecutive Gameweek. He’s likely to be on spot kick duty if the Foxes are to be awarded one.

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Pereira, Morgan, Evans, Chilwell, Mendy, Ndidi, Iborra, Maddison, Gray, Iheanacho.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Aurier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Dier, Davies, Sissoko, Winks, Alli, Moura, Son.

    Who just did that dribble?

    1. kennethrhcp
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      pretty sure commentator said Ricardo

      1. Boo Ya Ka Sha
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        silky af.

    Who are you looking to captain next week: Kane the obvious choice, Salah vs MUN, Sterling at home vs EVE, or Auba vs SOU (mid-week rest imminent)? Some one else?

    1. Boo Ya Ka Sha
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling.

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Kane or Sterling.

    3. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Kane

    4. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Kane

    5. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Depends on midweek games

      Kane as is

      1. AuFeld
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        I can imagine that game time is of concern if he's playing 90 mins mid week.

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

      Kane!

    7. Mo Mané No Problems
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling

  3. kennethrhcp

    1ft (still have WC), 0.8itb, front 8:

    Salah, Hazard, Richarlison, Fraser, 4.2
    Kane, Jimenez, Hernandez

    worth upgrading the 4.2 to a playing mid with rotation? all defenders play so could get away with bench fodder.

    A: torreira
    B: camarasa
    C: save FT

    1. AuFeld
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Kante looks like a 'set it and forget it' 5th mid with his fixtures.

        1. Don Kloppeone
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

    Auba, aguero, kamara...

  8. SPorting
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Paterson and Alonso on my bench waiting for a Kane no-show.

    Oh yeah, and Laporte as first sub.

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Unlucky but surely Paterson v a bottom half team is 1st sub at least

      1. SPorting
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        You’d have thought so

  9. Digital-Real
