A day of goals and points aplenty ends with the main event as Spurs host Manchester United in the final fixture to be played at White Hart Lane.

A momentous day for the club, it’s unfortunate for Spurs and for owners of their key Fantasy assets, that the result is somewhat academic.

While Mauricio Pochettino’s men will look to provide their supporters with a fitting sign-off, they will need to lift themselves following the Gameweek 36 reverse at West Ham and Chelsea’s title-winning triumph that followed.

Fantasy managers will be hoping for a quick revival.

Dele Alli and Harry Kane head into the tea-time kick-off owned by 33.8% and 20% of FPL managers respectively, while Christian Eriksen is still found in 18.6% of squads. Kyle Walker also remains the top owned defender (30.7%), although he again misses out today with Kieran Trippier preferred at right-back.

For Kane, there should be no need for extra motivation. He will not only seek to score the final goal at White Hart Lane, he is still giving chase to both Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku in the race for the Golden Boot. He his currently level with Arsenal’s Chilean on 21 goals, trailing the Everton striker by three.

Kane has seven goals from his last six starts but has yet to score against visitors Manchester United in six attempts.

Jose Mourinho’s side arrive to present another line-up influenced by their Europa League campaign. The United manager makes predictable changes following Thursday’s hard-fought 1-1 draw with Celta Vigo as Wayne Rooney starts, along with Anthony Martial in attack.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Will gabbiadini play vs man united because ive got coutinho on my bench and I could do with gabbi not playing?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Oh my word. I'd be fuming.

      1. Football Heaven
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Yep I am

    2. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      I hope he will.

    3. Shifty
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      hope so

      that would be too jammy to get Cout's points.

  3. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Alli looks like scoring

  4. Lanzini girls just want to …
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    I'm thinking of doing gabbi to llorente today. Is it a bad move or should I wait?

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      wait

    2. rdamjan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Wait. Price doesnt matter anymore.

    3. Jay_
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Why do it today? Can afford a triple Llorente rise and Gabbi drop even if you have 0.0 ITB

        1. Lanzini girls just want to …
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          True but gabbi might go down meaning I can't afford someone else

      • Ravager
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Any harm in waiting? Don't rush moves now

      • *sigh*
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Wait invade of injuries.Also Origi may be a better shout?

        1. Lanzini girls just want to …
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Good point actually. I'd hate if a heavy hitter got injured but I usually make transfers on Sunday if I can

      Alli most technically gifted Englishman ever?

      1. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        No that's Rooney. Imagine how good he'll be when in his prime

      2. Rainer
        • 9 Years

        Lollana

      3. La Roja
        • 13 Years

      4. Sims
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Lallana

        Clearly you are too young to remember Marko Van Atkins at the mighty Rovers 94/95

      Rooney goal 100% confirmed... I will quit playing if it is given as a Vert OG....

      1. Ha.
        • 10 Years

        BBC saying it's an OG and under review

        1. diesel001
          • 9 Years

          No they are not

            76 mins
            Hold on.

            Wayne Rooney's shot came off Spurs defender Jan Vertoghen before nestling into the back of the net.

            I am now told the Premier League are reviewing the goal.......

      3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …

          • 11 Years

    7. HD7

      Does winning goal play a factor in Baps ? Kane ?

      1. BrockLanders
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Hopefully

      2. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Extra 2 or 3 to his bps I think

      3. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Yes and yes.

      4. Magic Bean
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Is it still classed as a winning goal if it was scored at 2-0? Anybody know?

    8. FALCAO & MOU
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      5 defenders and not 2 GK's giving me 5 points sums up my GW.

      1. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        It's a pretty poor defence with Hull, Bournemouth and Southampton though

    9. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Could do with a Bavies yellow card.

      1. Ziro
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Red would be yummy

      2. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        And why not a Kane or Eriksen red card

        1. Hibbo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Get off my thread.

          1. Sim Simma
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

            Or even better a fight between Alli and Kane

    10. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Give Davies a YC.....

    11. Football Heaven
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Will gabbiadini play?

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        No

        1. Football Heaven
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          U sure?

          1. Hotdogs for Tea
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

            No

      2. Ziro
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Hold on, Puel on the other line

    12. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Mkhi spotted

    13. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Come on DDG get some more saves my son

    14. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      If Eriksen was a remotely decent finisher he'd be up there with lampard when it comes to fpl quality

      1. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Remotely decent, lol.

        Sims the troll

        1. Sims
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          His finishing is awful. Period

    15. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Eriksen on for 3 BAPs. Kane approaching 2.

      1. Toast
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Yay

    16. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Kane you absolute flop

      1. Hughes Your Daddy
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        eh?

    17. WVA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      9 points from 5 defenders and 2 gks, could be 7 if og awarded, worst gw of season for me.

    18. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Kane will be getting 3 it seems

    19. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Destroy Davies baps asap

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        He's already on it.

    20. HD7
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      If it stays like that will Kane take more baps than Eriksen after final whistle?

    21. Jay_
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Kane flirting with 2 bonus after winning goal as it stands. Vert OG would help.

      • F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Knew i should have done Alli ➡ Coutinho for a hit 😐

        1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          No you didn't

      • Ravager
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        How many of us got in Kane early hoping he'd explode into form after his injury? Didn't work out so well

        1. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Didn't he score 3 goals in his first 2 games after injury ?

          1. Ravager
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

            Then has went in and out. Hasn't been as explosive as we hoped for the run-in. Just saying.

            1. Hotdogs for Tea
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 9 months ago

              Second injury ? Yes expected a bit more maybe
