The Gameweek begins at Old Trafford and a big clash between Manchester United and Spurs which, in Fantasy terms, has been turned on its head by Harry Kane’s injury.

The striker has been sold by more than 750,000 managers ahead of today’s deadline following the revelation of his absence from this match. Son Heung-min is trusted with leading the Spurs attack in his absence against a Man Utd defence which are yet to concede in a home match.

Jose Mourinho’s tactics will be pivotal to today’s outcome and the potential for Fantasy returns. United have set up to mirror Spurs three-man defence with Eric Bailly returning alongside Phil Jones and Chris Smalling. It remains to be seen if this signals the intention to attack the visitors, promoting the prospects of both Romelu Lukaku and the returning Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

Lukaku goes into this match on the back of successive blanks with his remaining 52.4% ownership desperate for him to produce today with a Gameweek 11 trip to Chelsea up next. The Belgian has been sold by over 314,000 managers ahead of today’s deadline.

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

    What has pep made man city in over a year and what is mourinho doing at united ..
    United are literally defending at home , with 7 men behind .

    Poch didnt come here and change the system to nullify united .
    Mourinho changed the system to a back 5 to nullify spurs at home .

      That pattern's lasted longer than those managers, tbf. LVG and Moyes turned United into a dour team, and aside from that spell at the start of the season with Pogba et al it hasn't really improved since. City were great to watch under Pellegrini a lot of the time too.

    1. Guy Demel

      He’s coming in for Alonso for me barring any injuries this week.

    2. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      He's at -100.6 on FPLStats now. I'm hoping he drops overnight, want to bring him in for Kola after this weekend.

  14. Duffy Dunk
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Let's see..
    Who do you feel Pep will start?
    A) Aguero
    B) Jesus
    C) both
    D) none

    1. SuperMane Returns
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

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

      D - Bernardo false 9

    4. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Think both

    5. Hooky
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      B

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

      D. Claudio “Good with his feet” Bravo will be a False 9, playing in Foden who'll partner him.

    7. Scout Pics
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      D

    8. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Logic suggests B..

    9. ZaZaZu
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I'm pretty confident Aguero and Jesus will start. I've got both, but with Pep it is less clear cut. I think this is his preferred lineup but with Sane and Sterling on form, he obviously has options.

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

    Is that Lukaku up front for United?

    1. Forza Papac

      1. Duffy Dunk
        • 9 Years

        Some of them in my ML too. That doesn't stop their teams from getting fortunate returns out of nowhere though.

    9. RamaJama

          Lukaku doesnt do enough, should be a massive nuisance bullying the defenders but instead he's static waiting for the ball to come to him

          So easy to defend against and it's clear why he has a crap record against top teams

          1. FC Hakkebøf
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            We saw that at Everton as well. Not a shocker imo. He is so stationary

          Lukaku seems to mark the opposing defenders rather than the other way round
