Son Heung-min (£9.0m) is fit to feature in Tottenham Hotspur’s clash with Manchester United this afternoon, having made a swift recovery from a hamstring injury.

Having initially ruled the Korean out until after the October international break, Jose Mourinho appeared to be slowly backpedalling on that initial prognosis during the week and Son indeed makes the starting XI this afternoon.

Kick-off in the penultimate match of Gameweek 4 is at 16:30 BST.

Son may have been passed fit but Mourinho has otherwise rung the changes from the Gameweek 3 draw against Newcastle United, no doubt in response to the Lilywhites’ brutal schedule that has seen them play cup matches on both Tuesday and Thursday this week.

Full-backs Matt Doherty (£5.9m) and Ben Davies (£4.9m) drop to the bench, while Giovani Lo Celso (£6.9m) isn’t risked after sustaining a knock in the 7-2 win over Maccabi Haifa.

Midfielders Lucas Moura (£6.9m) and Harry Winks (£5.5m) are also among the substitutes, having started all three Premier League games before today.

Dele Alli (£7.6m) makes the 18-man squad but again doesn’t feature from the start.

Serge Aurier (£5.2m), Sergio Reguilon (£5.5m), Moussa Sissoko (£4.8m), Tanguy Ndombele (£5.9m) and Erik Lamela (£5.9m) are the players who come into Spurs’ side at Old Trafford.

The Manchester United team news is a lot more straightforward.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made one alteration to his side from Gameweek 3, with Eric Bailly (£5.0m) replacing Victor Lindelof (£4.9m) at centre-half.

Almost 1.4 million FPL managers sold Son ahead of the Gameweek 4 deadline, with no other Fantasy asset suffering as many transfers out as the South Korea international in a single Gameweek so far this season.

Anthony Martial (£8.9m) was also out of favour, with his 303,342 sales making him the second-most sold FPL forward of this weekend.

Bruno Fernandes (£10.5m) is the only Manchester United player who has a double-digit ownership in FPL at the time of writing, with three Spurs players – Doherty, Son and Harry Kane (£10.5m) – featuring in more than 10% of Fantasy squads.


Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Reguilon, Hojbjerg, Sissoko, Ndombele, Lamela, Son, Kane.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Bailly, Maguire, Shaw, Matic, Pogba, Fernandes, Rashford, Greenwood, Martial.

          After Lamela forarmed him in the neck. Both should’ve been given yellow cards.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Let's be real here - Martial red, Lamela yellow, Bailly red

    So are we all just gonna bring Son back or pretend he does not exist?

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      He comes straight back. I'll eat the mistake among many other mistakes...

      1. Party time
        5 years, 9 months ago

      2. Pratik
        • 17 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yup, he's excellent value for money. Probably today itself.

    2. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I pretend that I don’t exist anymore since I sold Son

    3. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

    4. Dynamic Duos
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I had already planned to bring Son and (c) him, so doing that still

    5. AC Yew
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yep Salah to Son lol

    6. Danstoke82
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      He’s coming back and staying in my team.

  3. Chalobah's Witness
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Chances Son getting rested in the 2nd half?

    1. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Ah ah ah

      1. Chalobah's Witness
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Need to know if he'll continue. I've got big money on him.

  4. SteJ
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    I've worked it out, we're playing Nightmare Football not Fantasy Football

  5. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Son and kane are a must by the look of things

  6. El Presidente
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    So, United fans tell me now..
    What was it about Mourinho exactly? LOL

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Mou v Woodward maybe

      1. El Presidente
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah, but there was a lot of fans saying the problem was Mourinho and his defensive football.... bla bla bla bla...

    2. JakeTheRed
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      We have a problem in Ed Woodward.

      Doesn't change the fact that Mourinho's attitude stank at United & this game doesn't change the fact that he's past it.

      1. El Presidente
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Right.

  7. Milk, 1 Šuker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Kane close to a fifth! Bleeding heck!

  8. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Kane stats just like the old days? Time to bring in?

  9. HellasLEAF
    • 17 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Spurs far superior side.

    We can blame Ole but it's the personnel imo.

    1. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      its 100% the manager. Ole is rubbish

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Moyes, Van Gaal and Mourinho are not bad managers. There is something else that's rotten. Things were rapidly declining in SAF's latter years too. Fortunate to win the league in his last season with the squad he had.

      TIFO did a good video on what's really happening behind the scenes, and it's disgusting.

  10. Niho992
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Thinking to activate WC and fit Kane and Son. Great fixtures.

    1. thetommy14
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Doing this ASAP

  11. Mr. O'Connell
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    harvey f***** barnes.

    1. thegaffer82
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Was my Son replacement 🙁

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Don’t mate, I blame Jose and FPL for that 25% chance or playing flag

  12. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Would you just do Werner Foden to DCL Son with 2FT tonight, despite the IB?

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      If you have exact funds, yeah

      1. FPL Scoop
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Near it

  13. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Greenwood > Son for free no brainier?

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yep

    2. Stimps
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Orgasmic

  14. thegaffer82
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    The red card (which was right to be given - but should have also happened to Lamela) will mask how poor Utd are.

    Spurs were well on top before it, and were pretty much able to waltz through our ‘defense’ at will.

    We will all rush to get Son back in now (including me). And next week he will come up against a much better DF than Utd’s and will go back to being a ‘decent’ pick... but he won’t be scoring anywhere near the points he’s got against Saints and us.

    C’est la vie!

    1. HashAttack
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      He wont score 4 goals every week .... just every other week

  15. Wizard of Ozil
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    please SALAH, HAVE A DAY OFF!!!!!!

  16. Hulk Smash
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    This is awful. I've owned Doherty all season and Aurier is out there with 7 hectares of space against 10 men.

    If he doesn't come on I get 0 points off the bench from a Brighton defender. FFS!

  17. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Jealous of the fly on the wall in the United dressing room.

  18. Kodap
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    On a serious note, Foden & Jiminez > Son & Wilson?

    Or Foden & Ings > Son & Wilson...

  19. mattk lfc
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    KDB and Jimi > Son and Kane is awfully tempting. Could backfire but I feel it has to be done

  20. Garlana
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Only good decision I've made this season...kept son after mourinho comments where he didn't rule him out and banked 2ft.

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Ditto. Plenty evene benched this gw. Huge differential.

      1. Garlana
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeh huge.funnily enough alot of my ml took him out for Jayrod lol

    2. tinear
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      We are the few lucky people

    3. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Exactly the same. Of all the major hauls that have players have had over the first four weeks this is my first, so please don't begrudge it or me at 4.9million OR

  21. Dynamic Duos
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Martial in for a telling off

    1. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Ole doesnt tell off anyone. He will blame the ref and Lamela in an attempt to please Lazy Tony. Sunshine manager, no balls, no conviction, just hoping to "nice guy" h\is way to a trophy which will never work.

  22. Cookie Kid
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    We all getting Son then?

  23. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Not sure how Kane has not increased in price. Been brilliant this season.

    1. Niho992
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      This and Tottenham didnt get single pen so far.

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      awkward price point with most doubling up on premium mids

  24. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Son is a season keeper then, yes?

  25. Do I Not Like Orange
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Which -4 is best?

    A) KDB/Ings > Son/Kane
    B) KDB/Foden > Son/Pulisic

  26. Niho992
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    It's funny that Man United fans crying about Lamela dive, but they are all supporting dives by Bruno. Lol. Got what they deserved.

  27. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Anyone get 3 points for Son while he was in their team and what's looking like 42+ while not in their team?

  28. Dynamic Duos
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Ayling, Lewis or Taylor?

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Son. 😉

  29. Forever In Our Shadow
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Who’d want to be Ole giving the half time team talk? I bet there’s no tea cups or Boots flying around. He will just “the lads could have been better”

  30. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Out digne foden kdb Werner
    In chillwell son havertz Kane
