Dele Alli (£8.3m) has been named on the Spurs bench ahead of their trip to Sheffield United.

The England international misses out on a start in Jose Mourinho’s talented attack, fronted by Harry Kane (£10.9m).

Son Heung-min (£9.8m), Lucas Moura (£7.1m) and Steven Bergwijn (£7.5m) are the three options named in attacking midfield, supported by a deeper pair of Giovani Lo Celso (£7.3m) and Moussa Sissoko (£4.8m).

The Fantasy attention will almost certainly be on the South Korean tonight. He is owned by 8.8% of managers worldwide and scored 12 points against Sheffield United back in Gameweek 12.

Those invested in the Spurs attack will be boosted by the line-up that Chris Wilder has been forced to field for the Blades.

Recent injuries to John Lundstram (£4.8m) and John Fleck (£4.8m), have severely limited his options in midfield. With Luke Freeman (£5.0m) also absent with a knock, Oliver Norwood (£4.8m), Ben Osborn (£4.7m) and Sander Berge (£4.7m) start together for the first time in the Premier League this season, Jack Rodwell (£4.5m) the only back-up on the bench.

Jack O’Connell (£4.6m) is still not back from injury either so Jack Robinson (£4.0m) continues to deputise in central defence alongside Chris Basham (£4.6m) and John Egan (£4.5m).

Spurs’ defence continues to offer greater stability though. For the third successive match since Project Restart began, Mourinho has paired Eric Dier (£4.8m) with Davinson Sánchez (£5.3m) at centre-back, flanked by Ben Davies (£5.3m) and Serge Aurier (£5.0m) in the full-back roles.

Sheffield United XI: D Henderson; Robinson, Egan, Basham; Stevens, Osborn, Norwood, Berge, Baldock; McBurnie, McGoldrick.

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris; B Davies, D Sánchez, Dier, Aurier; Sissoko, Lo Celso; Son, Moura, Bergwijn; Kane.

    As a rare Kane captainer, that hurt

    Would you ever give a penalty if this happens in the defending team's box?? Absolute rubbish inconsistency

    1. Deeney-is-a-god
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      The rule is that if the ball touch the hand in a build up to a goal then the goal is disallowed no matter what. But for penalties it has to be more than just sinple contact. Not inconsistent at all, just following the rules. If you disagree then the rules would have to be changed and not VAR

      1. Deulofail

        Doesn't even seen like that stupid a rule. It's trying to bring consistency for handballs in the leadup to goals by removing subjectivity. I'm not sure if I even dislike it.

        1. THE Wild Rover
          • 15 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Agreed

        2. Deeney-is-a-god
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Agree. It has been applied multiple times this season, but people seem to make a fuss everytime. If anything it is one of the only aspects of VAR that has been nothing but consistent

    How is Sonny looking?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Like he may kick out at any moment

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Decent left back

    3. EmreCan Hustle
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Spurs in general haven't done enough

    4. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Haven't seen him touch the ball yet (last few mins).

    5. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Any chances of a RC?

  4. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    You can't blame VAR for the laws of the game

    1. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You can if he’s someone’s captain on FPL lol. Wasn’t the reason Man City didn’t get a penalty at Anfield because the ball accidentally hit Bernardos arm onto TAA’s???

      1. Deeney-is-a-god
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Getting a penalty for handball follows a different set of rules.

        1. Qaiss
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          I’m agreeing with what’s said above. But people have short memories, that’s all.

      2. Forza
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I think the rule in question just applies to goals, not penalties - the TAA decision was just questionable refereeing.

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Weren't you the one having a go at VAR for not disallowing Bruno's goal the other night even though he was clearly onside?

  5. adams_6

    As I am an Arsenal fan and my rival has Kane (c), that is bloody fantastic

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You’ve jinxed it now

  6. Salarrivederci
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    VAR should only be used for on/offside goals. What a freakshow to ruin a game like that.

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Amen

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      This + for any possible penalty shouts, the ref should get to watch the monitor by the side of the pitch for replays.

  7. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Wild decision there for that disallowed goal. Haha.

  8. Cok3y5murf

    Want Spurs to lose now just to watch Mou's interview

    1. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Haha

  9. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Doesn’t make it right cause it’s wrong but SHU have had some bad VAR calls against them.

  10. Smurf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Worst rule ever created. It’s pathetic and anti-football.

    1. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      lol i mean its quite literally pro football.

      they mean well, just terrible wording on the rule

    2. Shineonme
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I agree. It's spoiling the game for me. These rules are killing the spectacle of the game .

  11. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    In the reverse fixture Sheffield Utd were denied a clear goal by VAR, swings and roundabouts ...

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You nearly got a bite but I’m walking away.....

  12. Nomar

    £9.7m for Son.

    I got ripped off.

    1. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Someone moaned here about Auba captain yesterday 22 minutes in, why don’t you just watch the game

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        +1

        1. Nomar
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Which is probably what he’ll end up scoring today.

    2. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Time yet, but not looking good at mo...

    So worried about that Fernandez, thinking of:

    Traore and Ings
    To
    Fernandez and Foden (-8)

  14. WVA

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Ruined that pristine record of 4 clean sheets in 28 games.

    3. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 9 Years

      😆

  15. AC Yew

    Double sheffield united defence on bench : D

  16. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    What happened to ball to hand and hand to ball

    1. The rules changed

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I think the older rule made a lot more sense

        1. The new rules are clearer, even if they are shite.

          1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Yes I suppose it is black or white. But sometimes with these handballs it’s a matter of luck to the point a player can do nothing about it brushing their hand.

        2. Shineonme
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Sure did. The game is becoming boring waiting for VAR decisions.

  17. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Get out of my team aurier,berjwin,DCL and rashford

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years

      Rashford?!

      1. Cilly Bonnolly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        He didn’t score anything in the last game so he’s shite now, is the logic.

  20. Stef rocks
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Disallowing this goal is pure joke - what was Moura’a fault exactly - having arms?!

    1. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      rule: any goal with a handball, accidental or not, in the buildup is disallowed via VAR check

  21. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years

  24. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Norwood should be off

  25. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    VAR red check?

  26. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Why is that elbow not being checked?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Bigger team bias.

    2. Shineonme
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I agree once again. Joke isn't it.

  27. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

  29. Aladdin Sané

    • 11 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    A) Play DCL
    B) Son and Saka to Pulisic and Antonio; play both and bench DCL

    B means I’d need to make extra moves to get Mahrez and/or Martial

  30. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    All of you forgot VAR

    1. Salarrivederci
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      VAR forgot itself in SHU- Villa

    2. Salarrivederci
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      The VAR-refs usually forget their brains.
      Only on/offside VAR makes sense. Everything is is more or less subjektive
