Another Saturday, another later-than-late kick-off as Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers gets underway at 20:00 BST.

TEAM NEWS

It’s easier to compare the Spurs team to last weekend’s XI rather than the much-changed side that Thomas Frank sent out in midweek.

There are two alterations from the Gameweek 5 line-up, both of them notable from a Fantasy perspective.

Pedro Porro drops to the bench, so in comes Djed Spence at right-back.

Further forward, Xavi Simons reclaims his place as Wilson Odobert makes way.

Vitor Pereira, by contrast, has had his head turned by the midweek EFL Cup win over Everton.

There’s only one change from Tuesday’s XI, as Jean-Ricner Bellegarde is replaced by Joao Gomes.

LINE-UPS

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Vicario; Spence, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Bergvall, Palhinha; Simons, Kudus, Richarlison.

Subs: Kinsky, Danso, Tel, Gray, Johnson, Porro, Odobert, Sarr, Scarlett.

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Johnstone; Doherty, H Bueno, Krejci, S Bueno; Munetsi, Andre, J Gomes; Arias, Strand Larsen, Hwang.

Subs: Sa, Moller Wolfe, Agbadou, Arokodare, R Gomes, Toti, Bellegarde, Lopez, Tchatchoua.

    Who is the safest ARS defender?
    Anyone thinking of bringing in Roefs? He was spectacular today and it works well with Dubravka.

        Short .2 to get Pope with Calafiori in team.

    2. bso

      6m or less

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam

        6 months, 21 days ago

        saliba then 🙂

    3. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      No clear answer. Gabriel, timber and califiori are all equally good options. Roefs why not?

        Thanks guys

    How has Strand Larsen looked?

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      abit isolated. useful when the ball finds him

  3. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Simons off

    1. tutankamun
      • 16 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Simoff

  4. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Suddenly wolves look like the best defensive team in pl.
    My 1 week Richy punt fails and still have kudus

    1. tutankamun
      • 16 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      It’s ridiculous.

      You not keeping Richa for Leeds?

      1. jacob1989
        • 4 Years
        6 months, 21 days ago

        Was thinking to switch to gykoeres

        1. tutankamun
          • 16 Years
          6 months, 21 days ago

          Monitor tomorrow. He’s not impressed me.

  5. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Spurs too many back passes, no shots on target second half

  6. Salarrivederci
    • 9 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    With 3 FTs and exact money what do you think of the moves here?

    Pedro, Mateta, Grealish, Tuanzebe ->
    Gyokeres, Guiu, Gordon , Burn (-4)

    Gives me:
    Vicario
    Virgil - Lacroix - Burn - Senesi - Andersen
    Salah - Semenyo - Gordon
    Haaland - Gyokeres

    (Dubravka, Le Fee, King, Guiu)

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      thats alot of sacrifice to keep salah. not the biggest fan of selling those first 3

      1. Salarrivederci
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 21 days ago

        Where do you think I make sacrifices?

        Very likely to go 5 at the back even if I sold Salah

        1. Salarrivederci
          • 9 Years
          6 months, 21 days ago

          Grealish got Palace and can’t face City. Want Gyokeres so at least 1 attacker Got to go 🙁

        2. F4L
          • 11 Years
          6 months, 21 days ago

          if you're set on going 5 back then ok fair enough. would say hitting the purple patches of 6-8mil players still has some appeal

          1. F4L
            • 11 Years
            6 months, 21 days ago

            *or at least trying to hit 🙂 been an unpredictable season so far

          2. Salarrivederci
            • 9 Years
            6 months, 21 days ago

            I agree, but look at these first 6 GWs.
            I’d argue that D. Burn against NFO looks likely to outscore Kudus, Grealish, Ndiaye, Foden, Pedro, Mateta, Doku, Reijnders, Gakpo, Simmons, Richarlison and so on.

            These defenders are basically 4+ more or less each GW with higher upside than midfielders and attackers.

  7. Hughes Your Daddy

    Sels to

    A) Roefs
    B) Kelleher
    C) Pope

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      c

    2. The Reptile
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Pope

  8. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    anyone keeping bruno on wc?

    1. FantasyTony
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      He scores those two penalties and he’s probably close enough to the top midfielder in the game.

      Think he’s firmly in the don’t buy don’t sell zone.

  9. GROBARI
    • 5 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Richarlison is just not a good football player for years, he can have 0 competition for his spot and he can play against 4th divison teams, he would never make my team and should have 0 hype around him as an FPL option

    1. tutankamun
      • 16 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      He’s played over 50 games for Brazil though…

      1. GROBARI
        • 5 Years
        6 months, 21 days ago

        Brazil has shocking strikers ever since R9 retired

  10. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Everyones shooting from outside the box, crazy

  11. dshv
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    1. Xavi/Enzo/Reijnders to Saka
    2. Cucurella to Gabriel (have Calafiori and Gyokeres)

  12. The Reptile
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Spurs are back ! to being Spurs...

  13. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    So it's all down to Morgan Rogers to save the gameweek. Godspeed.

    1. Goro Majima
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Condolences, should we send flowers?

  14. Effe
    • 15 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    A Strand Larson goal would be nice

  15. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Kudus passes the eyetest but never hauls

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Yea. I think he will get a return probably one in every 3 games, but I am not convinced its enough or a haul. He was never a real FPL option before, so not sure why we all expected he would be now. He does have decent fixtures, but after 11 he is a sell for sure.

      Enzo or Minteh are better options IMO, if I was on WC, I'd take one of them.

      1. Sgt Frank Drebin
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 21 days ago

        This 100%

  16. #1 Salah Hater
    • 1 Year
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Getting serious deja vu watching this Spurs game. it's like a re-run of when they lost at home to BOU 0-1. Eerily similar mistakes which Frank clearly didn't learn from.

  17. el polako
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    That Choua guy looks great.

  18. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Haaland 48 points

    rest of team 17 points

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Alderete 1st on my bench - 17 points.

  19. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Thoughts on these moves?

    Porro, Richarlison -> Richards, Gyökeres -4;

    Petrovic
    Muñoz Senesi Richards
    Salah Enzo Semenyo Reijnders
    Haaland Gyökeres Pedro

    Dubravka KDH Alderete Gudmundsson

    1. JT11fc
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      With Spirs being Spurs again those are prob good moves

      1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Woah he had not long ago, what about VDV he got a few in the first 15 mins

    How likely is Porro to be rested again after the next CL game on 4th Oct?

    1. bso
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Don’t care, he has to go on WC.

  22. Pariße
    • 11 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    I admire Frank but he was arrogant to think he could rotate with a team that finished 17th.

    1. Sgt Frank Drebin
      • 9 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Apart from Porro that's their best team, no?

  23. FPL Sanky

  24. Sgt Frank Drebin
    • 9 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Amorim should ditch the 3-4-3 and just copy the formation Crystal Palace uses.

    1. FantasyTony
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      United should ditch Amorim and use the manager Crystal Palace uses
