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

      Have WC left, planning on using it GW 12... might dump Lukaku for Kun as don’t lose much value and can get him back in...

      Don’t have much faith in the price rising sites so not sure if Kun is looking to rise..

      Thoughts?

        Hes rising at least once this week.

            Lukaku looks like he is going to drop and Kun rise on FFF

        Looks like a good move right now but things could look diffrent come gw12 a week is a long time in fpl not to mind 3.

        I am also eyeing gw12 for the wc.

        He was spotted leaving the stadium without crutches, no limping either, fingers crossed he might be fine for the spurs game

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

      Done my transfers already this week because im inpatient, heres my etam for enxt weekend:
      Speroni
      Kola - Maguire - Ota
      Rich - Sterling - Mahrez - Gross - Salah
      Kane(V) - Kun(C)
      Taken a -8 🙂

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

        Mahrez, jeez

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

          Mahrez is the secret weapon, so much so in fact I wont take him out till he blanks at least twice

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

            Lol, i guarantee you, you will take him out if Coutinho braces next week.

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

              lol well that is my plan double up on pool with salah and Couts but not doing it until Mahrez stops and Liverpool prove a double up is worth it. Not convinced after today

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

                If Vardy could put away sitters Mahrez would be one of the highest scoring mids for points from his assists but Vardy has wasted many chances. Are people watching Leicester games? He looks really good..

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

        A -8 and playing Speroni... Recipe for disaster 😉

        Nah jk it looks pretty solid to me. Hope you have a bench just in case of extreme Pep

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

          I have Eliot as well, jsut giving Speroni a chance because he is as at home and its against Wham. But Eliot might sneak back in by the deadline. I have Duffy on the bench so if any no shows he will probably come on with a cs

          1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Fair enough 🙂

      3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years

        what's the -8?

        1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Didn't ask in case I didn't like it and it's too late now!

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

          to shift from 343 to 352

      4. Magic Bean

        Risky. Need to see the mid week games. Good luck though.

      morata aguero in for lukaku jesus for -4 - yay or nay? thanks guys!

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

        Yay actually

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

        Yay, morata aguero kane is the way forward

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

          yea I have Kane

          the team looks like this
          DDG
          Trip Alonso Lascelle Naughton Rosenior
          Sane Choupu-Moting Ritchie Brady Loftus-Cheek
          Kane Jesus Lukaku

          the mid seems very cheap but those lads have some nice upcoming fixtures and they could get me some returns should be good value in the short term

          im considering dropping alonso but i dont crave the cash atm due to cheap mids and the upcoming fixtures seem promising

          i dont like getting rid of lukaku but morata seems like such a nice value pick with good fixtures coming up

      3. bojack
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Wait until after the League Cup at least. Probably not for me, though.

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

          yea i will wait for sure the 0.1 price increases/drops are not that much of a factor for this move - i just dont like having jesus 10.7mil striker that is very rotation prone

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

      What should I do with my team?

      Pope (Elliot)
      Alonso Otamendi Cedric (Simpson Ward)
      Salah Silva Richarlison Choupo-Moting (Carrick)
      Kane Jesus Vardy
      0.1ITB 2FT

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

        alonso is questionable chelski seem to leak a lot but have a very nice stretch of fixtures coming up the money could be moved to upgrading vardy or jesus to aguero

        with aguero back i would move on from jesus he seems to be too much of a rotation risk he is 20y/o and pep wont put that much physical pressure on him imo

      2. S.Kuqi

    12. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years

      Is Trippier nailed on? Him or Monreal?

      1. arndff_
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Monreal

      2. AzzaroMax99
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        monreal

    13. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Despite bring ranked poorish 339K I just realised that top10K is just 50 points away.

      Few captaincy success and I'll reach it 🙂

      1. Ógie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

        That is the spirit kid. 😉

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

        I'm somehow in the top 50k despite my captaincies being extremely lackluster all season. Defense has been extremely clutch for me this season lol

      3. bojack
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Aye there's a long old way to go.

        I'm languishing at 860k despite having about 50 points more than I had at this time last year when I was much higher in rank.

    14. The real slim shady
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Richa or Zaha?

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

        Richarlison

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

        Lison

    15. Foozeball
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      How do we expect City to do against WBA? WBA is often a tricky fixture even for top sides, but City has been very consistent against WBA, having won 11! times in a row in the PL against WBA so far

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I think they will do well, it's just guessing who pep will play which is the problem

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

          Same, but I don't feel comfortable captaining any of them due to Pep's teamsheets. Might just go with Aguero to ward off the swarm of my ML rivals (and FPL in general) who are captaining him too, as he can easily cause a lot of damage :/

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

        WBA with a lot of injuries at the back. Im expecting a comfortable win

      3. bojack
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        It'll be a case where City have 70%+ possession as Albion have very little outlet and Pulis will field three or even four centre halves (last year he played Evans in midfield in this fixture).

        Damage limitation from the baseball capped one. I predict 3-0 to City minimum, if not more.

        I'll be fairly near Pep during the game if anyone wants a message passed on?

    16. The White Pele
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Silva or sterling out to Salah ?

      1. arndff_
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Sterling because Silva's more nailed.

      2. SC not pearls before swine
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I like Sterling slightly more. I think at his age, even Silva will get rotated occasionally (Just me guessing) and his upside isn't as high as Sterling

    17. Carlton_Goal
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Bottomed.

      What to do with Davies? Already used my FT getting rid of Cresswell and cab't get Otamendi in without 2 transfers as I already have 3 city players

    18. MGD
      • 9 Years

      How long will Jones be it out for?

      And it's time to get rid of Bavies, yes?

      1. Sandy Ravage

    21. A Team Of James McCleans

      People understand Otamendi wont get 15 points every week, right?

        Wuuuut?!

      2. Sterling is £11Mill..…

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

        he might vs WBA, has quite good stats for headed attempts, and until Kompany comes back they'll always aim at him from set pieces

    22. fedolefan
      • 11 Years

      The whole world wants to know what to do with Bavies & Jones. Can someone help please?

      1. LosBlancos
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Sell one and keep the other with a good bench option?

      2. Carlton_Goal

        Wait, what's happened to Jones?

          Thanks. Gutted I can't reach to Surman.

          Well, not -too- gutted, but a nice differential.

    25. Pea Soup

          Peps already said he will give Aguero minutes in that game I think?

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

            To clarify exactly what Pep said. Because Aguero has equaleld Citys goal scoring record they asked Pep when he would break it to which Pep replied probably playign Wolves or agasint West Brom. So it isnt a guarantee of Kun playign Brom but probably

      Jones, Davies, Otimendi, Ward
      Erikson, Silva, Coutinho
      Kane, Jesus, Vardy

      Fabianski, Memba, Cork, Stephens

      Vardy and Davies need to go. The transfer in thinking atm is Vardy & Erikson to Morata & Richarlison.

      A ) is that a good transfer? Y/N
      B ) who is the best straight swap for davies? (5.6) & is it worth -4?

        good team, really it's just a choice of keeping faith in hazard, or moving him to salah and spending the change
        personally I think morata and hazard is too much, Liverpool have some good fixtures coming up, having both salah and morata seems better to me - BUT - you'd be perfectly justified in saving

      few questions:

      1 - BAVIES - got to go? are all the spurs wing backs the equivalent of the city forwards? rotated all year long?
      2 - JONES - keep for a few weeks? if so going to have to either upgrade mbemba or play RLC/Carrol until then
      3 - VARDY - are him and firmino both not worth it? do we either upgrade to morata-type or drop to budget option scoring the same amount of points?
      4 - LUKAKU - just gets enough points not to get booted, at least you can count on him starting every week and playing 90, is that a good enough reason to avoid a swap to city fwd?
