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

        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Yeh could keep Jesus and just do the other 2 for free or ship Jones > Azpi for -4

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

      No need to lose Jesus or Davies really, just Hazard to Salah for now

  6. Rainer

    Is it ok to captain Kane in the early game when he's playing away?

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

      Worked big-time the last couple of times.

  7. mrpink32
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Davies, Maguire, Hogg, Vardy out for Moreno, Lascelles, Salah, Diouf - 8

    Leaves me with;
    Ederson
    Cedric Ward Moreno( Lascelles)
    Sterling Salah Hazard Richarlison Chopo
    Kane Jesus (Diouf)

    Or any other suggestions?

  8. The Tinkerman

    Missed the game.

    How did Kane's injury look? Hammy?

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

      Cramp, he's fine

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

      Hammy at worst, cramp at best. Not sure yet.

      1. The Tinkerman
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Hmm, puts my transfers on hold. Was gonna be Mkhi and Jones out. Might add Kane to the list for -4.

    3. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Looked okay once he got up and also at end of match.

    4. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      probably one of those when you just feel it a bit tight so wise to get off before doing it bad

    5. MTPockets
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Looked a bit like the Morata scenario, but hopefully not.

      Not captaining kane and selling Ramsey for Sterling has cost me grand total of 28 points.

      I feel sick.

      1. diesel001

        You are too much of a knee-jerker IMO. Every week asking too many questions. Need to chill.

        1. camarozz
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Wouldn't say that. Have had 2fts twice so far. -12 in hits only and still have WC. Been patient I thought.

          Held Ramsey for 6wks.

        Sold Salah for Sterling and C him, over Kane. Kaku got VC. Also dropped Azi for Luiz for some funds. I feel you...

      4. Emmicson

      Just confirmed...

      Davies, Chalobah, Eriksen
      To
      Duffy, Richarlison & Salah (-4)

      1. bojack

        Logical.

      2. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Looks good, TBH.

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

      On a WC. Before this match, I was looking at:

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

      Given that I've realised I should never doubt Kane, how's this instead?

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

      I'm actually 0.1 short of the second option, but hoping Daniels falls some time this week. (Could also fund it via Ward > Mee or Duffy > Dunk).

      I have heard/read that Hunemeier is usually the 1st choice backup to Dunk/Duffy. Can any Seagulls confirm? (Jonty where you at? 😉 )

    13. The Royal Robin
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      A) Bench Bavies and play Brady vs NEW (H)
      B) Sell Bavies > Otamendi (-4) and play him instead of Brady

      Why is everyone talking about Kanes injury?

      1. CRO KLOPP
        • 8 Years

        You told me few days ago that city lineup is settled.
        Can you please tell me lineup vs WBA
        Cheers

    15. The Man Pastore

      Is kane injured?

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

        Dont think so

    16. I Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Managed 53 which seems okay considering I had Sterling (c) Jesus (v). Annoyed at myself for not even putting the vice captaincy on Kane after having him captained early in the week. Knew he had to score at Wembley eventually and Liverpool aren't good defensively. Need to stop overthinking it.

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

        Same situation 🙁

    17. ooooo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      So, Davies + Jesus to Kiko + aguero using my 2FT will make my team looks like this.
      Ryan
      Azpi Otamendi Ward Kiko
      Salah Silva Richarlison
      Kane Aguero(C) Vardy

      Elliot Jones RLC Carroll

      Do it or not do it?

      Who to bring in for Bavies ? I have Ward, Jones, Otamendi and Azpi.

      A) Southampton defender
      B) Kiko Femenia
      C) someone else ?

      1. The Royal Robin
        • 10 Years

        1. Railwayman
          • 13 Years

          1. The Royal Robin
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Otamendi, unless you've already got him then I'd go for Duffy.

    22. AnfieldLad
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      My team has just fallen apart, defence mainly, any advice??

      Eliot, Krul
      Kola, Davies, Jones, Naughton, Gamez
      Sanchez, Sterling, Atsu, RLC, Carrol
      Kane, Jesus, Morata

      1FT, 0.2ITB

      A) Davies -> Otamendi
      B) Davies + Jones -> Otamendi + Ward (-4pts)
      C) Davies + Sterling -> Ward + Salah (-4pts)
      D) Davies + Jesus -> Ward + Aguero (-4pts)
      E) Other

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

      Anyone else thinking about just keeping Sterling and accept the fact that he will be benched and have little cameos now and again.

      Seen a lot saying he needs to go but personally think at that price he's worth keeping for hauls whenever they are

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

        Most people here suggest to keep. I would, too. Has played part in most games so far. Returned points in most of those, too.

      2. Monkey Hanger
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Me definitely. Look at highest scoring mids, four of the top six are city. Be patient and points will come.

    25. banskt
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      61 all out, thanks to Kane (C).

      Looking for suggestions for this defense:
      Jones // B. Davies // Evans // Cedric // Wimmer.

      No FT, No WC, 1.1m in the bank.

    26. The Red Devil

      nice Rough & Smooth for FFS scoutcast
      Rough-Took a 16 point hit & the ones i sold got returns(Hazard, Ritchie)
      Sterling(C) Failed, Jones+DDG double up failed

      Smooth-Harry Kane(VC), Nicholas Otamendi

      Funny how two players saved my potentially disastrous GW!
