Antonio Conte makes three changes to the Spurs side that beat Crystal Palace 4-0 in Gameweek 19, with Ryan Sessegnon, Pape Sarr and Dejan Kulusevski coming in for Ivan Perisic, Oliver Skipp and Bryan Gil, all of whom drop to the bench.

Richarlison, meanwhile, is also named among the substitutes after suffering an injury with Brazil during the World Cup, but Rodrigo Bentancur misses out.

    Martinelli YC 🙁

  2. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Doherty off for Richy

  3. Pep's Money Laundry
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I'd like to go triple Arsenal midfield but I don't want to lose White either.

    I think it I might end up doing Martinelli to Odegaard and adding Saka

  4. The Senate

    Cmon spurs do something

    Need this Arsenal cleanse gone

    Was expecting Son to come off.

  6. Rainer

    Do not get booked, Bukayo!

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years

      Please do

  7. Ze_Austin

    4-2-3-1 now?

  8. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …

    Spurs losing it, love to see it

  9. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    If you had the choice.

    A) Martinelli + Toney

    B) Saka + Mbuemo/Ferguson

    I’m on A right now

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A

    3. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Thanks guys.

      Right, well think I’m set then

    4. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Almiron and Toney, assuming you have Odegaard

      Almi's next three opponents are shocking

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Well I’ve had to lose Almiron buddy.

        So the team now stands at:

        Sanchez
        Trips - Akanji - Schar
        March - Rashford - KDB - Odegaard
        Kane - Haaland - Toney
        ______________________________\_
        Ward: Shaw: Martinelli: White

        With 0.3 left in the bank

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I know. I just prefer Almiron + Gabriel + Raya to Martinelli + White + Ward

          Those next 3 matches are very promising to me, especially with Arsenal facing Casemiro next

          Almiron has done nothing wrong

          1. RICICLE
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            I hear ya, but have never really rotated keepers and it never worked the couple times I did, I do like Martinelli a lot still with Everton and Brentford coming up soon also. White I think is adequate enough over Gabriel to save some pennies, good arguments for both though

  10. TheBiffas
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Ramsdale matching kepa is nice but I'm also a Kane owner... Conflicted

  11. Bluetiger1
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    BGW

    Is this a Blank Game Week -heard mentioned today or less fixtures?

  12. TheFridge
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    With Odegaard likely to increase in value overnight, I'm inclined to make a move now so I can afford it.

    Cancelo + Andreas = Schar + Odegaard?

    Team:
    Kepa (Ward)
    Trippier, Cancelo, Shaw (Bueno, Patterson)
    KDB, Martinelli, Rashford, Almiron (Andreas)
    Haaland, Kane, Mitrovic

    Could also go with Botman as opposed to Schar, to free up more funds for other moves down the road. Thoughts?

    1. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I like Schär more, so that option for me

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Plan B - Cancelo & Andreas for Botman / Odegaard as said more funds for future

      1. TheFridge
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks, fellas. The move I'd make to follow would likely be for Toney over Mitrovic. . . How does that affect the analysis?

  13. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Farce Saka is on no baps here.

    Awful system

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Awful assist given 😛

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Correct. Should’ve been a goal

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          It wasn't even on target.

          1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Sense the tone.

            Not sure it’s a dodgy assist. It’s an assist. Two of them.
            No bps currently.

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

        Still time to delete this mate

      3. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        This

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Don't be greedy, got a dodgy assist.

  14. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Perisic on

  15. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Perisic and Kulu owner here. Come on lads

  16. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Need Son to do one of his trademark 13 minute hat tricks

    1. Monklane
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Plural?

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        He did it in Germany 😉

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Ain’t happening. He’s lost his desire

  17. Tonyawesome69
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Has Son been hiding all game?! No idea why he is still on

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      See above

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Ain't happening I'm afraid. He has been so poor, verging on non-existent in this game

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He's pulling a Foden

  18. Boberella
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Is there any news on what’s going on with Toney and the impending FA sanctions? Is it safe to say nothing will happen for a while in terms of any potential ban etc?

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      March at the earliest I read.

      1. Boberella
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Nice one. Thanks.

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

        If you can link where you read that it'd be appreciated.

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Probably read it on here

          1. Hazz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            That's why I'm asking. I'm. dubious of the source.

            1. _Ninja_
              • 15 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              Was just a random journo on twitter giving his opinion. Not an actual source . He could have just bought the blue tick lol

              1. George Sillett
                • 10 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                So complete speculative nonsense then

                1. _Ninja_
                  • 15 Years
                  3 years, 2 months ago

                  The fa haven't set a date so no one knows for sure. All best guesses until then

      3. George Sillett
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Where did you read it ?

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

    White not off 59th min is extraordinary ...

  20. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Kane escapes yellow.

  21. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Romero again, I don’t know how he is still on the pitch. Odegaard is a class act

  22. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Martinelli off

  23. borat
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    How many more fouls Romero can commit before getting that second YC.

  24. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Martinelli fail

  25. FantasyTony
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Marti clean sheet banked

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

    Brutal day for marti only owners

    Could see Saka or ode getting another return on the break here as well

  27. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Martinelli might have to shift out of my team soon. Missing out on Saka and Odegaard week after week now

  28. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Would you be selling Martinelli?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      2 or 3 more productive attackers in the side so yes

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      You must have some team if he's your weakest link.

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Considering various options, may keep him and try doing Andreas to Oddgard

    3. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Arsenal seems more focused on the middle and right flank

  29. Valar(Keith)
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Got enough cash to do Andreas to Odegaard and give martinelli some bench time on my bench. Or could swap Almiron for Odegaard and start both. Almirons fixtures are fantastic though. Very tricky.

  30. EWH2020
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Assume FPL will reinstate my Kulu assist and Darwin assist from a few weeks back if the Saka one is allowed to stand?
