All eyes will be on Son Heung-Min (£9.8m) and Harry Kane (£11.1m) as the two well-owned Spurs attackers aim to put Fulham to the sword in Blank Gameweek 18.

Joining the pair in attack will be Moussa Sissoko (£4.9m) playing in a more advanced position. Harry Winks (£5.2m) retains his place in a midfield three, with Pierre-Emile Højbjerg (£4.9m) and Tanguy Ndombele (£5.9m) .

Sergio Reguilon (£5.7m) makes his Premier League return, with Serge Aurier (£5.2m) on the opposite side of the defence.

Eric Dier (£5.1m) and Davinson Sanchez (£5.2m) partner in central defence, with France international Hugo Lloris (£5.6m) in goal.

Scott Parker, who was furious at the game being moved with so little notice, has made several changes to his line-up.

Out-of-position Ivan Cavaleiro (£5.4m) continues in a false nine role for Fulham, supported by Bobby Decordova-Reid (£5.3m).

Ruben Loftus-Cheek (£5.9m), Harrison Reed (£4.4m), and Andre-Frank Anguissa (£4.5m) make up a midfield three for the Cottagers.

Kenny Tete (£4.3m) and Antonee Robinson (£4.4m) line up at wing-back, with Ola Aina (£4.4m), Tosin Adarabioyo (£4.5m) and Joachim Andersen (£4.5m) in central defence.

Alphonse Areola (£4.5m) keeps his place in goal.

Spurs XI: Lloris; Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Reguilon; Sissoko, Hojbjerg, Winks, Ndombele; Son Kane

Fulham XI: Areola; Tete, Andersen, Adarabioyo, Aina, Robinson; Loftus-Cheek, Reed, Anguissa; Cavaleiro, Decordova-Reid

    KDB(c) & Sterling in my team - 13 points gone in one wild swing of Sterling’s boot

    1. Captain_Shirokov
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Probably actually 19 points gone.

    2. ChelseaGuy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      If KDB had taken it, it was an 18 point swing

      1. Pacer.
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Sterling the fall guy here for KdB being an absolute fraud at 11.8m. This guy isn't even matching Marcus fracking Rashford

    3. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Yup, same here. Out of the cup, as well, barring a miracle of Sterling scoring a penalty proportions

    4. david31058
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Am in the same boat. That's another level #@*%#@#, right there!!

  2. Hulk Smash
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    I don't own Sterling but that's ridiculous. He's one of the least technically gifted players at this level. He's probably the last City player you'd pick to take one, including the keeper. Madness.

  3. Crunchie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Well that was incredible. As a KDB (C) it was so laughable as i can't believe what I just saw.

  4. umerlfc
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    This is the most frustrating thing I've watched all season

    1. Dickie1898
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      this

  5. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Pep is surely going to be absolutely fuming at that? No way could it have been agreed that Sterling is on penalties

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      He was probably behind the whole thing.

      1. El Presidente
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        No way, this was KDB allowing that Muppet to take It!

    2. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling never taking a pen again and KdB off pens as punishment.

  6. Dickie1898
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Even as a double city def owner, I wish they conceded after that penalty fiasco. Deserved to. What was all that about? Anyone have any idea why Raz took it?

    I honestly wouldn’t have brought Sterling if I hadn’t seen this article. I got suckered.

    1. DeadStarComing
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I should add I do get some good advice from this site too 🙂

  8. All The Aces
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Just used my entire repertoire of awful words at Sterling there and I'm proud of it!

  9. Das Boot
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    C'mon Son. Lets do this 2 goals and an assist will be just fine

  10. MOZIL
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    KDB doesnt seem like to be a good captain choice, he only scored 3 goals this season and he rarely hauls

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      It’ll dawn on the rest of us eventually, maybe not in time for my TC KDB in 19 though unfortunately

  11. OverTinker
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    any chance Cancelo get 1 bonus?

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Doesn't look like it.

    2. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      No as I own him

  12. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Sterling....

  13. fusen
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    I have KDB captain but also own Sterling.

    That was literally the worst case scenario.

    My captain loses and my differential loses

    1. Marcin the Pole
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Same position. Honestly can't recall a season in which my luck has been this bad. Haven't had one rub of the green moment.

  14. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Just logging in. Why didn't KDB take the penalty ?

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Cause Sterling didn't let him talk.

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      No idea. I guess to give Sterling confidence?

    3. More Tragic
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Because Sterling did

    4. Big Ronnie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      To get his assists up is the only reason I can think of.

  15. Towsor44
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Lol, I had to free hit so took out Sterling for KDB and put Foden in to!

  16. Weak Become Heros
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Who would have got the assist?

    1. Greek Shamrocks
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      KDB

    2. DAZZ
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Kdb

    3. Towsor44
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      KDB

    4. JOELIO8701
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Kdb

  17. Chris_H
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Presumably us Sterling cappers should be celebrating depriving KDB cappers of an extra 16 points despite losing 4 points...

    Every cloud!

    1. Nice to Finally Michu
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      EO suggests otherwise but ill take what I can get I suppose 😐

  18. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    I’ve owned KDB for 7 of the last 8 weeks and the game I didn’t own him was against Chelsea when he was actually clinical. Doing my head in

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

    Kick Sterling out the team for that.

    Would like to say it cements KDB on pens now but that should’ve been the case before.

    Stupid

  20. Greek Shamrocks
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Let's go KANE (C)!!!!!!!

    1. Towsor44
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      +1!

  21. umerlfc
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    This FH is an absoulte waste if Kane & Son haul and Arsenal play a 0-0 with Palace

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Not for me... That would be great actually, might push me in to top 10k.

  22. Ha.
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Dier goal to save me

  23. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    At what point do we get any enjoyment this season?

    Thanks

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

      When it ends it seems.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I enjoy picking a team and listening to the pods and reading on here but actually hate the games now haha

  24. Don Van Vliet
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Raheem costing De Bruyne captainers 10-12 points with that woeful penalty.

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

    Just checked in after an hour. Who decided Raz is on pens?

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      My rival with Kane(c)

  26. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    I have NEVER rated Sterling, and never will I. He just lacks that footballing brain. That CL miss last season was the lowest of the lows, and I expect another one in the near future after what happened today.

    1. Nice to Finally Michu
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      🙄 Not the age old "lacks that footballing brain" trope assigned to black players

      1. ZeBestee
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Well am from Africa, and that has nothing to do with color. He just isn't good enough. I will never say that about Mane for instance. Cheers

        1. Nice to Finally Michu
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Fair enough mate its just an attack on character I hear too often and in Sterling's case I disagree I don't think his limitations are cerebral but more about his technical ability. He's great at finding and interpreting space imo just poor at beating his man and inconsistent as a finisher

          1. ZeBestee
            • 11 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            He misses by far the easiest chances I have seen in a team as good as City. I know he isn't good at finishing, but some of his decision making aren't great. I like him as a person of course even though am not a City fan.

    Chances newcastle get a double gameweek?

  28. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Happy I saved my FH.

    1. Konstaapeli
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Same.

    2. Lazaretti
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      After Saints Leeds postponement might use it now on GW19.

    As a KDB capper you just have to laugh

  30. Sandy Ravage

    That whole fiasco was so 2020 vibes
