After Arsenal swept aside Everton at Goodison Park, we turn our attentions to Wembley Stadium as Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool bring the curtain down on Gameweek 9.

All eyes are on Harry Kane, who is still seeking his first league goal at Spurs’ temporary home.

Despite that record, he is second only to Romelu Lukaku in the race for the Gameweek 9 captaincy – 18.4% of FPL managers have handed him the armband.

Given that only two of the top 10 captains have scored so far, a haul from Kane could have a major impact on the overall standings.

Elsewhere for the hosts, Ben Davies is passed fit to return but surprisingly has to settle for a spot on the bench along with Danny Rose.

Sold by over 195,000+ FPL managers last week, the Welshman has started just two of the last five Gameweeks and next faces a weekend trip to Old Trafford.

For the visitors, Mohamed Salah, Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino have the chance to play their way into our plans as the fixtures turn in Liverpool’s favour from Gameweek 10.

And James Milner – listed as a defender in FPL – could also be one to watch as an out of position option, with Jurgen Klopp naming him in midfield this afternoon.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Best Mkhi replacement - Richarlison, Ramsey or Silva? Leaning towards Ramsey atm, best goal threat over last two games.

    1. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I went Richarlison

    2. hurrrrr
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Ramsey could have scored 5 today. Very frustrating for an owner but paid off in the end!

    Own Ramsey, Salah and Kane.

    GW has gone from a disaster to great in the space of an hour.

      Fair play. Sold Ramsey for Sterling rather than Alli to Hazard. Feeling irate

      1. hurrrrr
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers. Transferred Sterling in and had Jesus as my captain so I know where you're coming from!

        1. The Left Duke #3
          • 11 Years

          Alli just restored the faith

    DDG / Elliot
    Azpi / Otamendi / Daniels / Ward / Duffy
    Eriksen / Salah / Sterling / Richarlison / Surman
    Aguero / Morata / Abraham

    OR

    DDG / Elliot
    Otamendi / Daniels / Ward / Duffy / Hunemeier
    Salah / Sterling / Richarlison / Gross / Carroll

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

    Gomez has Kane in his back pocket

    1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Damage is done haha

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Okay.

    3. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Too bad he only brought the jeans 30 mins into the game...

  6. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Imagine selling him 😆

  7. walkman666
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    3 guys kane beat there...

  8. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Think I may need to accept I made the wrong decision to sell Salah on WC last week and bring him straight back in

    1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      No shame in that

    2. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Probably won't have cost anything anyway as he's dropped?

    3. Debauchy
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      No prob, but yeah

      1. Debauchy
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Need more Kane though to hone in on RCA

        1. Bubz
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Aye

    4. tm245
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Might do same. I sold Salah instead of Eriksen for Hazard, doesn't feel good right now.

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

      I was worried about his price drop

    6. sambyy
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I got Coutinho on WC but now I want Salah back

  9. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Gomez trying a Lindleof

  10. marco_atk85
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    2 FT which below are priorities to go:

    a) Bavies
    b) Sterling
    c) Jesus

    1. aluigi76
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Jesus and Sterling for Morata and Sane/Silva

    2. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Reckon Jesus will start next weekend with Aguero kept for the away CL game that week

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

      Why Sterling out?

      1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        This

        We knew he was a rotation risk and at least getting 0 mins means you get a sub on

        1. marco_atk85
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Well OK I am lucky this time that Richarlison is my first sub but 8.2 is so much money for one who is rotation.

    4. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Just Bavies...good chance Jesus and Sterling play at Brom

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

    How’s Eriksen been? Playing deep?

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      no

  12. Darth_Krid
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Amazing how this game can turn from unmitigated disaster to glorious in the blink of an eye. Kane (c) and Salah!

  13. BIG TONES
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    I messed up so badly this week with my transfers lol @ me

    1. Patch
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Which did ya do?

      1. BIG TONES
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Something along the lines of Sterling in and Salah out + ended up with Jesus instead of Aguero

    2. Siggy in the Middle
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Did Lacazette to Morata.

      Lol @ me.

      1. Norman Conquest
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        ok then lol

    3. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Sanchez to Sterling

      Lol @ me

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Why sell him before Eve and Swans if at all, the situation was you keep if you got him early as he'll eventually fire

  14. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Imagine selling Salah for Antonio...

    Hi

    1. Siggy in the Middle
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Why though?

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

      You live up to your name at least

    3. CFC96
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      your name suits you wel

    4. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      That was terrible to be fair

  15. LIARS POKER
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Why did I go Coutinho over Salah on wc. All for the sake of 0.2, ffs

    1. TheTwelfthMan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Coutinho has 50 minutes to score still.

    2. Patch
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Cout will score, if he doesn't I will actually put a grav up

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

        That's got everyone crapping themselves.

        1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Also no time limit. Cout will score at some point in the future for sure

          1. Patch
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            OK to be specific Cout will score by end of this spurs vs Liverpool match and my grav may be Shaqiri in all his splendour...he was my alternate cap choice

    3. Magic Bean
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Iv'e said it over and over again. Basically comparing a striker to a mid

    4. sambyy
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Same

  16. KUN+10
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Why did I get Jones in yesterday?

    1. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Because there is something wrong with you.

      1. KUN+10
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        I cannot disagree. In the rush of getting Alonso out, I got Jones in. The worst move I have ever made

        1. Squashed
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Join the club

    3. KUN+10
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I also read a post by TM saying he only hurt his quadricep and should
      be ok. Maybe he comes through

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

    Gomez playing well

  18. TerryVenables
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Mee or Ward?

    1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Now is not the time.

      Unless the 0.1 can be used elsewhere then Ward

  19. Gt1996
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Ritchi + Jesus > Salah + Rooney for free? And play 3-5-2? Or is that insanity

  20. Feloh
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    did salh to sterling last week and got his 15 point haul

  21. Big P
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Preferred combo here chaps?

    A) Mee & Josh King

    B) Maguire/Stones & Chris Wood

  22. Steinburg FC
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    all Bavies owners he wont play today, Rose will come on for Aurier after his yellow card.

    1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Hope that's the case

    2. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      hope so

  23. Jar Jar Winks
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    The yellow teeth fool made a career hugging players and jumping up in the air.

    1. moz_1983
      • 13 Years

      ?

      1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        B!tching about Klopp I think

    2. Clump
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Very insightful post.

  24. Fred54
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    So when Kane goes to Madrid in January you guys doubling up on Jesus and Aguero, right?

    1. TheTwelfthMan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Llorente essential

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      No, getting Bale

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

      I’ll get Bale

    4. Siggy in the Middle
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I'll get Griezmann when he goes to Brighton and have the Griezmann-Groß combo.

    5. Steinburg FC
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      HE'S ONE OF OUR OWN!!!!!!

  25. FPLCEO
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Chelsea are nuts. Can't believe they have sold Lukaku, Salah, Matic and KDB in last few years.

    1. A Team Of James McCleans
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Matas decent too

  26. hurrrrr
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    I know Liverpool's defence sucks but Moreno at 4.5m still looks great value.

    Also rotates amazingly with my Swansea DEF for that final slot.

    Next 8 games: Hud/Bri/Sou/Bou/Stk/Bri/Wba/Wba

    1. Squashed
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Gomez

      1. hurrrrr
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        More nailed than Moreno?

    2. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Don't bother

  27. JogaSemmedo
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone bringing Morata in? Will wait until after league cup games but think longer term will be nailed on in many teams.

  28. Optimus.
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Short corners should be an instant 3 match ban for the taker

  29. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    So much space for Spurs on the counter

    1. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      So much grass.

  30. shearer9
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Should I get rid of Mkhi and Bavies for a -4, considering I have Sterling and Jesus and only one playing sub?
