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

    What keeper to play this week Speroni (H to Wham), or Elliot (A to Burnley). Im actually leaning towards Speroni for some reason, think they will nab a cheeky CS

    Alonso, Bavies, Jones, Ward, Mbemba
    What should I do first?
    Thanks.

    1. VIRATKOHLI18
      • 8 Years

      Mbemba to playing def

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

      Alonso is nailed but really crap value.
      Jones going off may have been a pre caution, may not be badly injured.
      Bavies is a rotation risk.

      I'd do Bavies to Otto.

    3. Son is Rising
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm in a similar (although leakier!) boat. Moses, Alonso, Bavies, Mbemba, Dawso.

    Most goals conceded away from home in the Premier League this season:

    Liverpool (15)
    Crystal Palace (12)
    West Ham (11)
    Stoke (11)

    Wow and two of the other 3 have been Etihaded..

    Kola gets one more chance.

    1. ★Kuntheman★

      SWA is a prime game for ARS

  5. ★Kuntheman★

    8 years, 1 month ago

    What do you guys think of this?
    Fabianski (Elliot)
    Azpilicueta Stones Monreal Jones Ward
    Salah Sterling (Carroll, Loftus-Cheek, Fellaini)
    Kane Aguero Morata
    0.1 in the bank (Fellaini to leave next gameweek, probably for Can)

    1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      There's some good value in midfield I'd rather be harnessing than sticking with a big three through times of rotation and mediocre fixtures... Like the defence though

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Apart from Richarlison, I'm not really considering anyone else...maybe GroB or Fabregas.

        1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Richarlison is beginning to look like the real deal, he's even giving us points in hard away matches against the likes of Chelsea and seems kind of consistent. I really like him for 6.3

          1. ★Kuntheman★
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Would love to get him for Fellaini, just can't see myself dropping anyone but Monreal from that defense

  6. Angin out the Begović

    Anyone know the estimated price Rise and Drops (if any) tonight?

  7. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Just me or is the defender pool looking a bit depressing? The only one that excites me for the coming games is Gomez, which says a lot about the current options. Jones perhaps dead with bad fixtures for the next two, Davies dead as an option it seems, Otamendi a risk when Kompany gets back and crap fixtures anyway, Arsenal looks grim, Chelsea without Kanté leaking goals... Am i just a pessimist?

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Disagree about Otamendi. Fixtures look excellent and Kompany isn't going to manage a sustained run in the side all season IMO. Jones looks good long term but poor for the next couple. Agree with the rest.

    Did Kane > Kun this week and it backfired big time.
    How will you improve this mess?

    Krul Elliott

      Mate you got away with it this week.

      You’re one pep tinker away from a non playing centre forward.

      You have to get Kane. Get him back it was a mistake to get rid.

      1. King Kohli
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I can get by without him for next GW i guess. Planning to get him back for CRY.

    A) Salah

    Got Moreno in for Davies this week and benched him. Genius.

  11. United10
    • 9 Years

    Vardy to Firmino? no Liverpool cover

  12. Gooner97
    • 12 Years

    What's more beautiful than own Kane?

    1. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Captaining him on haul week.

    2. Rash
      • 8 Years

      Having the armband on him when he hauls

      1. Rash
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Something I'm yet to accomplish

    3. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Captaining him 😉

    4. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years

      Kane and beautiful in the same sentence. Never thought I would read that.

  13. Fantasy Gold

    I can't believe there are people that are buying Moreno on here.

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)

      Believe it . I got him in on Saturday .

      Don't think so. Just old Jones olds

      1. Gooner97

        I have a feeling that Vardy will backfire

        1. KUNingas
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          There is a chance

          1. Gooner97
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Would you get Trippier instead?

    2. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Why on earth would you want Firmino?

      1. Gooner97
        • 12 Years

        Great fixtures

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          8.5 for a guy that picks up 2 pointers week in and week out. No thanks. By far the worst Pool pick.

  17. cjhewitt92

    What to do with the following

    Jones
    Bavies
    Tripper
    Martial
    Jesus
    Lukaka

      out bavies martial jesus

    4. Eoin Jess
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Depends how many FTs you have, however here goes:

      Jones - Keep. He's been an injury risk for 3 weeks and started 3 weeks.
      Babies - ditch to Ota/Monreal?
      Trippier - KEEP
      Martial - Ditch to Man City or Liverpool mid
      Jesus - Not sure. I'm tempted to change to Aguero but it feels too sideways and Aguero might get rested too. Who knows with Pep. Both are risks.
      Lukaku - Keep. Certain starter.

      I have Jones, Bavies and Jesus. Really stumped over Jesus

  18. Prison Mike
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Sterling -> Salah for free

    Yay or Nay (Have Aguero & Otamendi, no pool)

  19. KUNingas
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Lukaku + Ritchie -> Firmino + Coutinho? Nice two fixtures and WC before GW12.

  20. The Red Devil
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Suggestions
    DDG
    Jones/Otamendi/Maguire Sterling/Silva/Gross/Richarlison Kane/Lukaku/Vardy

    Myhill/Tarroll/Schindler/Mbemba 1.4ITB 1 FT
    Save? Jones to Monreal?

  21. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Missed today's game. Davis still sick or dropped?

    1. Gazpilicueta
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      dropped again

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Again?

    2. TheRealDog
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Was on the bench but probably not 100% considering he returned to training on thursday or friday. I still expect him to start vs United and Rose to start in Carabao Cup.

  22. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Pool probably have the best 5 a side team in the league.

    1. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'd back City's to beat them.

  23. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Is double city option against West brom too much? 😀

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Kun will score many a goal

      1. The Overthinker
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Jesus owner here .....

        1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Aguero might let Jesus assist him or celebrate with him

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nah. Expecting WBA to get spanked. They are so slow and City will do them.

    3. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I would love to have Triple City cover

      It is a myth that WBA are good defensively also they could be without Barry, Evans & Dawson

      1. The Overthinker
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Captain Jesus?

        1. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I would if I owned him

          1. The Overthinker
            • 9 Years

            Cheers

  24. Gazpilicueta
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Opinions please

    elliot fabianski
    alonso, cresswell, Davies, Mee, long
    Eriksen, Silva, Ritchie, RLC, Carroll
    Kane, Aguero, Vardy
    0.2 and 1FT

    Option 1) find a way to bring in Richarlison (or Doucoure if I cant afford him)

    Option 2) Fix Cresswell, Davies or Alonso

    Option 3) Bring in more City, always moar city

    Option 4) Wildcard baby, make it happen

  25. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Jones/Bavies Ritchie to Ward Richarilson -4 and keep Jesus for now?

  26. LosBlancos
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Alli>Salah?
    or hold?

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

      If you have Kane I'd do it, Alli's second return in 6 gameweeks remember, Salah is basically our striker

    2. skriniar
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      SalaD is only lucky not quality

  27. nkhoughton
    • 10 Years

    Who to transfer out 1st

    Jones Davies Luiz or should sterling/jesus be removed

  28. GuyIncognito
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Khedira got a hattrick today for Juve 😮

    1. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Beast

  29. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Alli to coutinho or Salah?

    1. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Salah, it's a biased opinion though.

  30. Hulk Smash
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I've tried to avoid hits this season but can -8 potentially be justified for this after midweek games?

    If Jones and Davies don't play next week I'll only have Naughton (ARS) and Mee (New) playing in defence...

    Lukaku to Aguero
    Sterling to Salah (otherwise too many City players)
    Davies to Otamendi

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Good moves and high chance to claw back the hit so yes. Similar to what I am thinking- see below

    2. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Just do the bottom one.

    3. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I will be doing similar but instead Jesus, Kaku, Carick > Aguero, 4.5, Salah (had a ft)
