Son, Eriksen and Wilson benched as rotation continues

Rotation continues to affect Fantasy Premier League managers as Gameweek 17 continues with the Saturday 3pm matches.

Son Heung-min (£8.5m) and Christian Eriksen (£9.3m) were named among the substitutes for Spurs ahead of their match against Burnley, while Harry Kane (£12.6m) and Dele Alli (£8.9m) got starts.

Kieran Trippier (£6.1m) comes back into the side having missed Gameweek 16 through injury, while Ben Davies (£5.6m) was deployed at centre-back with Danny Rose (£5.8m) on the left.

Youngster Oliver Skipp (£4.5m) is set for his full Premier League debut in midfield.

With Bournemouth away at Wolves today, Callum Wilson (£6.9m) returned to the matchday squad after injury but was deemed fit enough only for the bench. Simon Francis (£4.4m) misses out meaning a second start of the season for Tyrone Mings (£4.3m) in the back-three.

Wayne Hennessey (£4.5m) misses out for Crystal Palace, meaning Vicente Guaita (£4.2m) comes in to replace him as Leicester come to Selhurst Park.

Jordan Ayew (£5.7m) lines up as a centre-forward with Wilfried Zaha (£6.7m) serving his one-match ban with Martin Kelly (£3.9m) filling in for the suspended James Tomkins (£4.3m).

Isaac Success (£4.6m) drops out of the Watford side hosting Cardiff with Gerard Deulofeu (£5.4m) coming back in to play up front.

    If Doherty hangs on that's 4 returns in a row. Great value. Hopefully some AWB pts too.

    Spurs doesn't deserve to be a top 6 side

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      What a ridiculous comment. If they have the points of course they do.

    2. Business Cat

      There was a stat before the match...in the 4 years since Poch has been manager, no PL team has got more points than Spurs in the league.

      ...so they're consistently good

      1. Ross From Friends
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        I think that stat was more directed towards Poch though...no other manager has gotten more points in his term

        But my sour comment was towards Kane failing as my captain..which has slightly changed. Sorry if I offended you mate.

  26. Chucky
    • 10 Years

    Son set...

    1. Sim Simma

    R.I.P. David's captain streak

    1. Numb
      • 9 Years

      Premature

    2 cardiff goals and no morrison or paterson involvement ??????

    Burnley's performance has put me off captaining Auba(BUR) next week. Sterling(CPL) looks better depending on midweek games.
