Spurs big hitters all make starting line-up at Cardiff

All four of Tottenham’s big hitters have made the starting line-up as they prepare to take on Cardiff City in south Wales.

Harry Kane (£12.6m) leads the line supported by Son Heung-min (£8.8m), Christian Eriksen (£9.3m) and Dele Alli (£8.9m) in midfield.

Harry Winks (£5.5m) and Moussa Sissoko (£4.9m) get the nod in the holding roles, protecting a back-four which features Kieran Trippier (£6.1m) and Danny Rose (£5.8m) either side of Toby Alderweireld (£6.0m) and Davinson Sánchez (£5.8m).

Ben Davies (£5.6m), Juan Foyth (£5.0m) and Lucas Moura (£6.9m) are among the key names on the bench.

Callum Paterson (£5.1m) leads the Cardiff line once again, as Neil Warnock goes for a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Victor Camarasa (£4.6m), now the top-scoring Bluebirds midfielder, is stationed in the number 10 role today with Josh Murphy (£4.8m) and Bobby Reid (£5.2m) operating in the wide areas of attacking midfield.

Cardiff XI: Etheridge, Manga, Morrison, Bamba, Cunningham, Gunnarsson, Murphy, Arter, Camarasa, Reid, Paterson.

Tottenham XI: Lloris; Rose, Sanchez, Alderweireld, Trippier; Winks, Sissoko; Eriksen, Alli, Son; Kane.

    Having to get rid of one of Kane and Auba seems really hard right now..

    1. TRIPOS TOPPER
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      why you have to get rid of one?

      1. Alli 3',17',64�…

    My Last minute captain switching

    Last week from bobby to kane
    Gw 19 from haz to kane

  14. La Roja
    • 12 Years

    Just over the 10 minutes and 0-2

    Bloodbath

  15. Alli 3',17',64�…
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Eriksen had all the time in the world in that box, coulda checked his emails and still had time to score

  16. Zladan
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    I was so set on selling Kane to fund Salah for a hit.

    If I keep Kane the only way to get Salah is for a -8.

    1. Teomi
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Same here :/

  17. pundit of punts
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Thank God I resisted Son ➡ Pogba for -4.

    The urge was real.

  18. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Absolute riot.

    Cardiff deciding to attack amd attack
    This is going to be very ugly

  20. tm245
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    How bad are Palace and Leicester that they couldn't score against these guys?

  21. diesel001

    5 years, 4 months ago

    Shame that no team wants to put 8 or 9 past their opponents these days. Cardiff are there to be humiliated today, but will Spurs go for it?

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Wolves pulled their pants down at the weekend so they’ll want blood I’d imagine

    2. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      If it gets to 3-4, he'll start pulling them off for a rest, surely

      1. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Why? They can rest in the FA Cup. Next match is not until 10 days. Give them a mini winter break

  22. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    It was so simple in hindsight

    Cardiff worst home defence in the league
    Spurs best away attack in the league

  23. F_Ivanovic
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Eriksen transfer this week worked out well 😀

  24. Zladan
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Even with a deflection, it did not change the intended destination of Son's pass. Assist should be given.

    1. MTPockets
        5 years, 4 months ago

        True but it's opta so could be anything

        1. Zladan
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          I thought FPL didn't use opta, but instead used their own system?

          I don't like the inconsistencies in awarding assists. For example, I see posts saying Pogba has 4 goals 4 assists in his last 3 (if referring to FPL), then others say 4 goals 3 assists in his last 3 (if referring to Sky).

          1. MTPockets
              5 years, 4 months ago

              Pretty sure that Mark explained they use Opta.
              Yeah fantasy assists (like Auba's)

      • YEAH PITCH!
        • 5 Years

        Son assist not yet added?

          • 12 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

      • Make United Great Again
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        This is going to get ugly. Regret not going Son (C)

      • Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Eriksen is always so good during the winter months.

      • The Red Devil
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        no son assist?

        1. SADIO SANÉ

          • 7 Years

          Wow that's premature.

          1. Zladan
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            He scored an early goal last match and did nothing more all game.
