Tottenham Hotspur are without the injured Harry Kane (£11.1m) for the final match of Gameweek 21 but there is still plenty of interest from a Fantasy perspective in the Lilywhites’ Sunday evening clash with Brighton and Hove Albion.

Kane is absent with ankle problems, with Gareth Bale (£9.3m) handed a start for just the second time in the league this season.

Bale for Kane is one of four changes that Jose Mourinho has made to his starting XI.

The other alterations see Toby Alderweireld (£5.4m), Davison Sanchez (£5.2m) and Moussa Sissoko (£4.8m) come in for Eric Dier (£5.0m), Serge Aurier (£5.2m) and Matt Doherty (£5.6m).

The Brighton team news is unexpectedly straightforward, with manager Graham Potter making no changes from the side that drew with Fulham.

All of the Seagulls’ players have ownerships of less than 4% in FPL but the game’s most-selected asset does feature in tonight’s clash, with Son Heung-min (£9.8m) in the visitors’ line-up.

Son features in just under 60% of Fantasy squads, both overall and within the top 10,000.

He was also among the top ten most popular purchases of Gameweek 21, attracting 167,978 transfers in.

Son has hit eight goals on the road already in 2020/21, although only one has arrived since Gameweek 6.


Brighton XI: Sanchez, White, Dunk, Webster, Veltman, Gross, Bissouma, Mac Allister, March, Maupay, Trossard.

Spurs XI: Lloris, Sanchez, Alderweireld, Rodon, Davies, Sissoko, Ndombele, Hojberg, Bergwijn, Bale, Son.

    Bale is so bad

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Really poor for the money he is paid.

      1. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        He’s just a Welsh Ozil.

        1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Özil is way better

  2. ivantys
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Spurs defence is garbage

  3. Egg noodle
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Son please control yourself for another 35 minutes

  4. 03farmboy
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    I have chilwell, Stones, Kwp, Saka

    Who would you be looking to transfer out and for who?

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Kwp if you have too.

    2. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      If similar price range, kwp to holding or rudiger. Not sure about the saka one.

  5. WVA
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    My rival who is 15 points ahead of me captained Sterling with Salah vice, is getting Bamford in for Sterling and Konsa in for Stones.

    You can't compete against that sort of luck

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      But he has a good bench. That’s not luck.

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        But a bad first team and bad selection choices and all his bench players hauled the exact week his players missed out completely with no prior warning, pure luck

  6. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Wow Spurs look terrible

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

      They have Aurier and Doherty 2 RB's. Jose decided to play with Sissoko.

    2. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      You sound surprised.

  7. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Looks like no one has good fixtures

    1. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Crystal Palace do. I am sat with Benteke in my team lol

  8. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    GTG or sell kane? 1 FT 1.5ITB

    Martinez (McCarthy)
    Cancelo Stones AWB (Coufal Dawson)
    Salah Bruno Gundo Raphinha Grealish
    Antonio Watkins (Kane)

    1. aborg
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I kept Kane till today but think we must sell. He is out for another 3 gameweeks at least ! Just can’t keep 12m on the bench for that long.

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

    So do we think Mane will be back for Brighton? Klopp said his injury was minor. Would like to bring him in.

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I’d wait until the last possible minute.

  10. The FPL Units
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Scout picks went well this week.

    1. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      If scout picks played fpl they would be at the 4m mark.

      1. The FPL Units
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        I reckon they should have a FFS team that they manage together and see where it gets.

        1. The FPL Units
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Through the season that is.

      2. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Even I beat them. 😎

      3. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        They have FH chip every week and still 4m rank?

      4. Pukki Party
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Arent they playing with 100m?

    2. Captain Vantastic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      They mostly chase last week's points nowadays.

  11. mr messi
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Best player to bring in for Raphina?
    Son
    Grealish
    Maddison
    Barnes

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Barnes

    2. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      The Greal Deal, honestly one of the best players in the league. Bargain.

      1. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        This.

      2. mr messi
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Grealish?

        1. St Pauli Walnuts
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          That's the one Turing, you broke the code!

  12. Jindaljain
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    When will Son score?

    1. Buck The Trent
      • 14 Years

    2. Egg noodle

  13. Krafty Werks
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Raphinha replacement for 5.7 max if he is indeed ruled out?

    A - Saka
    B - Soucek (already have Coufal & Antonio)
    C - CHO
    D - Other? Who?

    Thanks.

    1. Sid1891

      5 years, 2 months ago

      What is your Villa coverage?
      Thought of Barlkey?
      I kmow he trapped us few here but now fit and pretty decent

      1. Krafty Werks
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Only Martinez for Villa, took out El Ghazi last week as obviously been dropped for Barkley!!

        1. Sid1891
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Haha
          So there is your answer perhaps

          1. Krafty Werks
            • 11 Years
            5 years, 2 months ago

            Ah just checked Barkley is 5.9, i have 5.7 max unless i take a hit elsewhere and i'm not sure it's worth it and currently happy with all other players.

    2. mr messi
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Soucek

      1. Krafty Werks
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Currently on Saka if deemed fit i think to avoid the triple up, it wouldn't worry you?

        1. Sid1891
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Sorry mate
          Didn’t think he is 5.9
          Looks like got to be the Sauce

  14. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Veni Vidi Vinicius

  15. Jersey Boy
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Adam Webster gets nowhere near enough recognition. Massively underrated.

    Brighton always look solid when he’s in the side

  16. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    F off bale, useless player who came back to collect a wage, just retire to the golf course already

    1. mr messi
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Was he not getting a wage before for playing golf?

      1. The FPL Units
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah and not playing, what a deal.

    2. aborg
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Or go play in the USA 🙂

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

      Actually Moura is coming in for him !

  17. Jindaljain
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Good night Son

  18. Parsnips
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    What to do here?

    De Gea
    Stones Cancelo Digne
    Salah Bruno Gundogan Saka
    DCL Bamford Antonio

    Martinez Soucek Holding Coufal

    6.6ITB

    Thoughts are on Saka out. Any other suggestions?

    1. mr messi
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Saka out for Grealish/Barnes/Maddison/Son

    2. Pedersen
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      This team? You must already have done transfers or taken hits.. if you got ft i would do saka to grealish

      1. Parsnips
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Got 1 ft now. Took a -4 hit last gw though

  19. Egg noodle

    FFS Mods league link please?

    1. Chenku╰☆╮
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Find Andy find league. Id 40

      1. Rash
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Wow what a season he's having.

  20. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    So Son does well without Kane?

    1. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Is that what you learnt today?

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Spurs are brutal. Lethargic, no pace. Brighton much better so far

    3. Pedersen
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Nope. Most of those that have been here for years warned against Son, even i did. Choose who to listen to for better experience

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Don't have him. Got rid off him before double gw.

    4. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Has done.

  21. aborg
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    I guess I’m losing my cup game. Not seeing any returns coming from Son :/

  22. Cruyff Turn
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    So Zidane was right about Bale then?

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Not really... They wasted his prime

    2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

    3. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Spot on. But then again Real are worse without him. Lost again yesterday.

  23. The Suspended One
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Moura coming on for bale

  24. Forever In Our Shadow
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Bale is sheite and even Josè knows it.

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Then why play him?

      1. The FPL Units
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        to prove he is sh!te and send him back.

        1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Then that’s completely proven. Have fun on the golf courses around Madrid.

      2. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Because he ha no one else. They spent all the piggy bank on him.

        1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Moura and Lamela are better options

        2. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          They're paying less than 10m for him on loan this season. Paying about 1/3 of his wages. They'll get a lot of that back in merchandise and marketing opps from his name. Cynically I wouldn't be surprised if that's the main reason Levy got him. A waste of talent.

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Not like ithe other Spurs players are that much better than him tonight. Would be 2-0 but for him.

  25. Forever In Our Shadow
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Make another change but not Dier Josè.

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Is rather have Diers 1 pointer and hope that something will happen (it won’t) than Coufals

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        *I’d

  26. Rash
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Man United certainly dodged a bullet avoiding Bale

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      They were trying to dive in front of it and take the bullet lol

      Woodward miss pays off

  27. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Spurs there for the taking.

  28. ivantys
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    1 more goal from Trossard to seal the king of the week.

  29. Messiah Hazard
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Did Jose mention how long Kane would be out in his pre match presser?

  30. BeWater
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    9.5M starting price for Bale. Makes Aubameyang look the bargain of the century.
