Son or Kane? Which FPL asset can best capitalise on Spurs’ appealing fixtures?

Harry Kane‘s (£10.5m) end to the 2019/20 season suggests he could be the key asset for those looking to tap into Spurs’ appealing fixtures this time around.

Jose Mourinho’s men sit second on the Season Ticker for attacking potential over the first six Gameweeks, based on their opponents.

During this period they host Everton, Newcastle and West Ham while they’re road trips take them to Southampton, Manchester United and Burnley.

Spurs players had not appeared in too many Fantasy Premier League drafts before Thursday’s fixture release, but now that we know the schedules, Mourinho’s charges have become more popular.

As Fantasy managers search for the best way to invest in Spurs’ attack, Son Heung-min (£9.0m) and Kane are the front-runners, currently sat in 18% and 14.5% of squads respectively.

Ahead of the new season, we have compared how these two attackers performed during Project Restart. As this uses Opta data, only those with a valid Fantasy Football Scout subscription can access it in full.

What were Son and Kane’s average positions?

    A) Gomez and fodder
    B) Mitrovic and fodder

    A feels like better value, B feels like better structure.

    Let's say Pulisic is declared available for a start Gw1.

    Would you change your draft to get him in? What would it change?

    1. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Yep, Werner out to get Pulisic

    2. Zimo
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I think I'll stick with werner and ziyech

      1. Gabbiadini
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I'm on this.

    3. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I'm not sure where I find the 0.5 to get Ziyech up, so ATM no.

    4. Moxon
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Just means Werner is more likely to play up top

    5. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Would probably get rid of Ziyech, I already have one player that needs to adapt in Werner, avoids me having two.

    6. Dr. Rog

      you also have to factor in the strikers in the same 8.5-9.5 bracket. its not an easy call between

      Jimi, Ings, Martial, Werner, Rashford, Son, Pulisic

      but he is an option for sure.

      1. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Its quite easy. Pulisic is the best pick by far out of those.

    7. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Pulisic could make a mockery of that price, potential 250 point player!

      1. Goonsquad245
        • 8 Years

        Steady on.

    Bench Greenwood for GW1?

    1. pingissimus

      Fair call

      Looking right now at a similar strategy with different attack. Also thinking that United defence might be very good value too - they matched attack for value (not points) at end of last season and haven't received any price increase.

  5. Benjixclusyv
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts?

    McCarthy, 4.0

    TAA, Vinagre, Saliba, Ferguson, 4.0

    Salah, Auba, Son, ASM, Soucek

    Werner, Mitro, DCL

    1.0 itb to fund KDB/Bruno moves.

    Good luck to everyone this season!

  6. pingissimus
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Any particular reason to think United attack will perform better than United defence in the new season. Post Bruno the defensive figures took off as much as the attacking ones.

    AWB/Maguire/Shaw would get premium equalling returns at discounts if that form continued. Eg AWB got 75 points in 14 game weeks. That matches VVD at his best really. The attackers have all received price bumps - the defence not and short term anyway there are options for most very United attacker.

    Thought is that benching a United defender in week 1 is fairly straightforward.

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Who do you prefer between AWB and Maguire? Greek plate smashing aside

      1. pingissimus
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Have a blind spot with AWB - got him twice last season and then watched him and thought "oh no". Those returns did keep rolling at season end though. Nothing in it. Will probably go AWB

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          I went Maguie and enviously looked over at AWB's bonus point scores and occasional assists waiting for that headed goal... would prob go AWB next time.

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      GWs4-7 not screaming clean sheets, they are on the radar though

      1. pingissimus
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        At that price point it would be a long term call really and the fixtures are mixed rathe than horrid.

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Their defense is a joke With Lindelol and slabhead, and they basically have no decent holding midfielder Ahead of them either so the backline is constantly under pressure. Waste of defender slot imo

    6. Blunder fc
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      The defenders provide little going forward so dont compete with other value defenders

      1. pingissimus
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        75 points from 14 - it’s not how but how many?

        That’s a question because I’m dubious about United defence - see Brosstan - but that is a scintillating return

  7. Miguel Sanchez

    WTF - Joe Hart was once a £7.0m FPL asset?

    1. Sandesh_
      • 6 Years

      Back in 12/13 season

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Crazy price for a GK

    2. Coys96

      Twice!

    3. Azathoth
      • 9 Years

      Remember the times when Stephen Ireland was essential?

    4. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Seriously? That's insane.

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years

        Twice no less

    5. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years

      He was once the top scorer in a DGW...

    6. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I have fond memories of him at Birmingham, rotating with Sorensen of Stoke. Points bonanza.

  8. Moxon
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Ryan (Nyland)
    TAA, Vinagre, KWP (Saliba, Ferguson)
    Auba, Salah, Son, Armstrong (Gordon)
    Werner, Adams, Mitro

    2.0m itb

    What you reckon to this lads?

  9. Neil_Riley
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    What do people think of this for GW1?

    McCarthy
    TAA (VC) Justin Vinagre
    Auba (C) Mount Armstrong Barnes
    Werner Jimenez Mitrovic

    Ryan Ferguson Fernandes Taylor

    100 mil, 0 in bank

    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

  10. I Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    McCarthy
    TAA, Justin, Saliba, Vinagre
    Aubameyang, Salah, ASM, Soucek
    Kane, Werner

    Button; Greenwood, Brewster, Ferguson.

    Settled on this for now. Have a feeling I'm going to have to revisit my 4.5 defenders due to uncertainty over Saliba and Vinagre starting. Son and Ziyech are tempting alternatives to Kane and Werner but my gut feeling is that the two strikers will be worth the extra outlay. If Brewster doesn't get a PL loan move I'll switch to Davis. Greenwood on the bench will hopefully allow me to save a transfer in GW2 which I quite like in theory.

    1. LangerznMash
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Very similar to mine so I like it lol

  11. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    All this data does for me is work as a stark reminder that Antonio is essential at 6.5 despite perceived difficult fixtures.

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      It also refutes the idea that Kane won't get chances in a Mourinho team.

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      First GW he plays one of the worst sides for conceding headed attempts post lockdown (only Norwich, Burnley and Spurs were worse) and he sits top of headed goal attempts since lock down.

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Soucek more dangerous in the air

        1. Brosstan
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          How can Soucek be more dangerous in the air if Antonio has more headed xG since lockdown? I'll have both anyway 🙂

          1. Cok3y5murf
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            Depends on their heading abilities which xG doesn't take into account

            1. Brosstan
              • 9 Years
              3 years, 8 months ago

              Sample sizes way too small to conclude that Soucek is a better header of the ball than Antonio. xG better benchmark at this point

    3. I Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I don't even think their fixtures are THAT bad.

      NEW - great fixture
      ars - they've improved under Arteta but still very capable of conceding
      WOL - tough but could still get something
      lei - were poor defensively post lockdown and have injuries at the back
      tot - okay fixture

      1. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Wolves and Tot are the hard ones, agree.

  12. aleksaa2
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Not for the GW1, what would you do?

    A) Werner and Martial + 0.5 itb
    or
    B) Bruno and Jim/Ings

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      B

    2. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      A looks fierce tbf

  13. Miguel Sanchez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Which of these 4.5 Gks scores most in GW1:

    A) Rodak (ARS)
    B) Johnstone (LEI)
    C) Ryan (CHE)
    D) Meslier (liv)

    Can't include McCarthy

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      They all may score 0

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Looks possible indeed

        1. Gabbiadini
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Left field... but will Ben Foster sign for anyone?

          To answer your question most likely: C

    2. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Not great tbh. I'd go B

  14. Fero1905

    Mccarthy
    TAA, Vinagre, Saliba, Ferguson
    Salah,Auba,ASM,Ziyech

    nyland,justin, greenwood, Davis

    Any better options? Have i to many cheap defenders?

  15. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Any suggestions all? Really want Werner

    McCarthy
    Trent BDavies Vinagre Saliba
    Ziyech Salah Periera Auba
    Kane Jimenez

    Bench:4.0,Ferguson,4.5,4.5

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Dump Kane basically.

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        No chance 😉

        1. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Certainly that's fair

    2. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Kane to Werner to downgrade Pereira and upgrade Jimenez to Werner.

      Otherwise you have to change the whole team structure.

      1. Klaren
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Or downgrade Pereira*

        1. Champions League Varane
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Thank you that could be a nice idea

    3. I Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Pereira + Jimenez -> Soucek + Werner
      or
      Pereira + Davies + Jimenez -> 5.5 mid + 4.5 def + Werner

      1. I Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Or just downgrade Ziyech but I assume you don't want to do that.

  16. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    There are days in these pre season where suddenly you have to squeeze in a certain player... Seems like Ziyech's day.

    De Bruyne ownership is still sitting at 47.6%.

    Are people seriously leaving 11.5 on the bench in GW1?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Am sure plenty will but his ownership will be much lower around 20% once the game starts I reckon

    2. I Member

      The fixtures only came out yesterday. Not everyone is as addicted as we are 🙂

      1. KujaliaFC

        They only came out yesterday? I must be super close to a black hole or other massive heavenly body.

    How's this first draft post fixtures?

    Mccarthy (4)
    TAA - 4.5x4
    Salah - Auba - ziyech - Soucek (Foden)
    Werner - Mitro (4.5)

    Exact cash for Ziyech to Bruno gw2, giving a United and City.

  22. Zero
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Think I'm sorted for now with 1.5itb for movements:

    Lloris (4.0)
    TAA - Vinagre - KWP - Saliba (Ferguson)
    Salah - Auba - Son - Armstrong (Smallbone)
    Kane - Mitro (4.5)

    - Next week no FT.
    - Week after is Auba and Son > KdB and Fernandes (could bring in Fernandes 1gw earlier if Auba is dropping and Fernandes is rising).
    - The next week either no FT or pick up any player on fire.
    - Otherwise week after is potentially Kane > Aguero/Werner/Jimenez.

    How does my best laid plan sound to the mice and men out there? 🙂

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      I wouldn't lock out a potentially Southampton third option with Smallbone, would find another 4.5 mid

        agree. Smallbone may not even be on the bench.

          Gunn | Salisu | LB/RB(Transfer) | Romeu | Djenepo | Long | Obafemi/Transfer is how I see it.

            Great, thanks to you both!

      Dropping Kane before West Ham (H), Burnley (A), Brighton (H), West Brom (A)? I'd rather have Werner before then and move up when the time is right.

      Like the Lloris pick, defense looks fine too if Saliba is starting. Overall very decent.

        Excellent, thanks. It's the foundation I'm after I suppose. The minute a player I don't have pops in two goals in GW1 is an example of how it'll all crumble in a heartbeat! It'll be fluid, if Werner and Kane are finding the net then I'll adapt and find a way to get them both 🙂 thanks!

    A) All in team for GW1 then Wlidcard GW2
    B) All in team GW1 then hits to -12 GW2.
    C) Team set for around 6 weeks and take the "pain" of GW1,then see where we are.

    1. Dacra

      D) Have 1 United or City on the bench, plan to get a second GW2.

      1. Lloyd Xmas
        • 12 Years

        so C) then,thanks.

      Personally, I’m thinking about taking a -4 in week 2, both transfers going to Man United assets. They have CP followed by Brighton. Man City have Wolves followed by Leicester, which seem harder fixtures. With that, I think you start bringing in City for week 3.

      I may also consider staring with Greenwood and just play a bench player in Week 1.

    Thoughts?

    Lloris (Peacock-Farrell)

    VVD - TAA - Doherty - Vinagre - Davies

    Salah - Auba - Ziyech (Gordon, Bissouma)

    Werner - Mitrovic (Vassilev)

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Way too expensive on defense and awful bench.

      At least spare 0.5m for Soucek over Gordon/Bissouma.

      I really don't like going heavy defense early on in a season because this is a period to get the best value players in the game up front and in midfield. You need money there. Only later on when you hit your first WC is it a good time to settle down onto a premium defense strategy once you have picked out the new Charlie Adam's, Michu's and the sort.

      1. Flair
        • 3 Years

        Fair points, thank you. Can you expand more on "I really don't like going heavy defense early on in a season because this is a period to get the best value players in the game up front and in midfield." please?

      Looks good, I’d have Egan over bavies, still be quids in with Lloris if spurs keep a CS

  27. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Lol, just read that Slabhead was Arrested in Greece for assaulting a police officer. A man of the people

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      He certainly can’t plead self defence.

    2. barry custard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years

      probably get the arrest overturned by VAR and £5k compensation awarded

  28. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Little bit of a different RMT - thinking here is Open to a WC in gw 3 or plenty of room to do it with FT if some of these players start well - can pretty much lock that defence in then have option of either

    Lo celso looks nailed for spurs and an easy switch to greenwood if need be

    Mcarthy
    Tierny,vvd,taa,vinegar or Justin
    Lo celso,ziyech,Auba,salah

    McCarthy

    Alexander-Arnold Vinagre Tierney

    Soucek Aubameyang Salah Greenw

    Werner Mitro Ings

    Button Stevens Walker-Peters Justin

    Scope for plenty of future tx available:
    Aub / Salah > KDB / Sterling / Fernandes etc
    Werner / Ings > Martial / Jimi etc

  30. Dr. Rog

    Got a spare 1.5m and dunno what to do with it.

    A) Mitrovic (Fulham) - he is the main man (50% goal involvement), and a stats machine with terrible finishing. has pens.
    B) Pereira (West Brom) - looks a real quality player and west brom have brilliant fixtures. unproven, but potentially could be the early bandwagon.
    C) Gomez (Liverpool) - last season he had 28 league apperances to Lovrens 10 and Matips 9. Some of those are subs. Lovren has gone, its his place to lose now? Phenomenal value at 5.5 if he keeps the place - will outscore every striker/mid at the same price point.

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Always an attacker for speculative pick. Gives you better options to jump ship to another emerging wagon and to build team value.

      Mitrovic looks safest. Pereira has decent fixtures actually so he could be good.

    2. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Aurier if he stays at spurs.

    3. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Of the 3, I would probably go for the boring A. Tried and tested in the PL, on penalties etc.

      Going B is the flair move, and if your squad has no other PL newcomers I would be tempted. That said, I am not sure where these so-called brilliant fixtures are - are you trying to convince yourself?!

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        They are reasonable. All 2s and 3s according to the FPL site. No city or liverpool, and the games against the top 6 are all at home - LEI/CHE/TOT, except MUN away in wk9.
