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.

    Would you rather have Sarr or Kudus? Long term

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years

      sarr

    2. Khalico
      • 10 Years

      Palace Sarr*

    3. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years

      Sarr

    4. Pep Roulette
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Sarr. Kudus owner.

    5. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Sarr

    6. MJF
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Sarr I think. But I like both of them.

    7. marcus2704

      6 months, 18 days ago

      As much as I hate having Bruno in my team, I am getting real fed up with Cucu. Any owners hanging onto him, or getting rid?

      1. The Big Fella
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        I am keeping - look at those fixtures coming up. Many are selling though and he will drop tonight. I would get rid of Bruno. Midfield is where the points are this season. He is not cheap and he is taking the spot of somebody who could be returning for you.

    8. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Gakpo+ Munoz to Gordon + Gabriel (-4)? Just have enough money to do this, long term will this hit pay off?

      1. Pep Roulette
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Munoz could have easily got 17 points today against the current champions. That's how unlucky it's been. I'd keep.

    9. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      How reasonable or not is to stick with this one more week just doing Sanchez to Raya?
      Then WC over IB.

      (Raya)
      Porro/Munoz/Dorgu
      Bruno/Foden/Semenyo/Kudus/Reijnders
      Haaland/Pedro

      Dubravka/Gudmundsson/Kroupi/Neco

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        looks good one more week. i had a similar team and decided to wc though to get arsenal attack and semenyo and also fed up with losing value with players.
        gl

        1. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          Thanks mate, yeah, pretty fed up with that back line but one more week still sounds like a sweet spot here, GL!

    10. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Think I'm set on these moves. WDYT?

      Porro, Richarlison -> Richards, Gyökeres -4;
      Leaves 0 ItB

      Petrovic
      Muñoz Richards Senesi
      Salah Semenyo Enzo Reijnders
      Haaland Gyökeres Pedro

      Dubravka KDH Alderete Gudmundsson

    11. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      is Richarlison nailed?

      1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Nope but will start more often than not whilst in form

    12. gfcc20
      • 2 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Thoughts on this WC?
      Raya
      Gabriel Senesi Burn
      Saka Semenyo Sarr Reijnders Anthony
      Haaland Isak

      Dubs Thiago Richards Mukiele

      BB GW8. Deciding between Saka + Isak or template Bruno + Gyokeres.

      1. Pep Roulette
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        I'd stay away from Isak & Bruno for now after seeing both the teams today

      2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        No Liverpool, no Chelsea?

    13. gooberman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      I think they should raise the defcon bar for defenders from 10 to 12. 10 seems to easy to reach.

      1. JAC THE CAT
        • 12 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        We all play the same rules.

        10 is fine.

      2. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Midfielders should probably be 10 and defenders 12. Either way, next season I think they should reduce the return from 2 fpl points to 1. Defcon points are a bit over the top, some players like Caicedo might end up on around 170-180 points which is ridiculous.

        1. tutankamun
          • 16 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          But his price will go up accordingly next season.
          It’s just this season you’ll get a bargain, make the most of it!

    14. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      is PM Sarr nailed and actually a better option than Kudus?

      1. FourLokoLeipzig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Wasn’t considered nailed before today and he didn’t start, so that was probably accurate! I’ll be getting rid on WC

        1. ☈☾
          • 8 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          Wasn’t he injured?

          1. Tonyawesome69
            • 7 Years
            6 months, 18 days ago

            He wasn't injured when he was benched against Brighton

      2. C0YS
        • 10 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Seems pretty nailed for the time being. But I’m not sure I’d bring in a Spurs attacker right now since they’re having some trouble scoring atm

        1. C0YS
          • 10 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          Scratch that, didn’t notice he wasn’t in the starting XI. Kudus owner here and I’d keep away from both

          1. tutankamun
            • 16 Years
            6 months, 18 days ago

            I thought Kudus was very unlucky. Keeping for now.

            1. C0YS
              • 10 Years
              6 months, 18 days ago

              Perhaps, but the attack isn’t gelling yet. Don’t get me wrong, Kudus is quality. But we’re missing that clinical finisher atm. I’d much rather have Anthony at this point tbh

    15. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Minteh or Bruno Fernandes?

      Money not an issue

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Neither

    16. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Who is on pens for West Ham?

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Paqueta

    17. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      FT used. Thoughts? 🙂

      Raya
      Gabriel - Cash - Dorgu
      Salah - Semenyo - Reijnders - KDH
      Haaland - Gyokeres - Pedro

      Dubravka - King - Gudmundsson - Reinildo

      0.2 m in the bank.

      Cash and Dorgu âž¡ Richards and Andersen soon

    18. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      There's no chance of Sels having a double price drop this week is there? Its pretty rare right?

      1. Hughes Your Daddy
        • 13 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Looks like he is dropping tonight at least, i just got him out for Pope

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 6 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          Yea Pope is my replacement. But I want to get Gyokeres this week, and hold the Sels move until next week. But waiting on the keepers may cost me 0.2.

    19. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Enzo or Caicedo?

      1. C0YS
        • 10 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Dang that’s the most questions I’ve ever seen somebody ask. I’d advise you try to answer at least as many

      2. tutankamun
        • 16 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        While Palmer is out, Enzo

    20. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Replace Sels or Cucu first?

      Thinking Sels to Pope, Cucu to Cali or Timber

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Cucu

        Pool up next

      2. tutankamun
        • 16 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        I have the same dilemma. I could bench both for next week but worried about losing value. Only 1 ft.
        Maybe Cucu to Gabriel.

      3. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        I don’t like losing value but could bench Cucu?

        Keepers are Sels & Dubs, can do Sels to either Pope or Raya?

    21. C0YS
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Best 5.0 mid?

      1. Stach
      2. Xhaka
      3. Cullen
      4. Other

      Cheers

    22. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      6 months, 18 days ago

      Sarr loves scoring big xG chances. Started with him this season and need to bring him back in.

      Probably should have got an assist as well

    23. MJF
        6 months, 18 days ago

        The Roefs is on fire!

        1. g40steve
          • 8 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          Are Sunderland going to do a Forest from last year?

      • ae
        • 9 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        So... Is it finally time to admit I have been stupidly stubborn keeping Salah and refusing to bring in Haaland?

        1. Pariße
          • 11 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          You're not very good at predicting. 😛

          1. ae
            • 9 Years
            6 months, 18 days ago

            Evidently!

      • Freshy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Sels my biggest problem?

        Sels-Dubravka
        Guéhi-van de Ven-Senesi-DeCuyper-Reinildo
        Salah-Kudus-Semenyo-Reijnders-Dowman
        Haaland-JPedro-Gyökeres

        1. Freshy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          After watching ARS tomorrow I'll decide if Salah to Saka is a good move

      • Pariße
        • 11 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Are all the high scores Haaland triple cappers? Pretty much all of the goal scorers, apart from Semenyo and Anthony (mci), were complete outsiders.

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 6 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          Yes. Most people probably only had 3 or 4 players return. Haaland doing a lot of heavy lifting.

        2. SalahFingers
          • 8 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          Sunderland keeper has been doing very well.
          All Crystal Palace defenders are all doing not bad.
          Rodon is a cheapo that many people have that's picking up DC points and an odd CS.
          A bunch have Enzo by now too.

          The higher scores are people who had a good mix of those guys... and of course triple cappers.

          Anyone with Alderete kinda got lucky, although defensively Sunderland look good value this year.

      • SalahFingers
        • 8 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Assuming Saka looks decent in the game tomorrow.

        Gakpo + Johnson (spurs) -> Saka + Anthony (burnley)

        Look decent enough? I'm sick of players that don't play full games.

      • Whiskerz
        • 12 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Early thoughts are:

        Xavi > I.Sarr

        Xavi was only ever a stop gap for the Sarr injury anyway. And it seems fixtures don't matter to spurs. They just gonna spurs.

        1. Hughes Your Daddy
          • 13 Years
          6 months, 18 days ago

          Yep, Sarr essential. I need to get him back in as well.

      • The Reptile
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Sels to Pope or Roefs (or is b too risky?)

      • pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Last season Haaland hattty (TC) and this season Haaland (TC) today

        Erling goes into my hall of fame

      • Supersonic_
        • 4 Years
        6 months, 18 days ago

        Richards or Guehi?
        Pope or Raya?
