The penultimate match of Gameweek 19 has us drop in on Turf Moor as Burnley host Tottenham Hotspur.

Fantasy managers will be suffering split loyalties in this one, with Harry Kane clearly the key attacking asset on the pitch, up against the resilient and widely owned Burnley defence.

Kane goes into this encounter still in 2.1 million squads but having suffered ownership losses in both his previous two Gameweeks. Indeed, some 108,000 moved him out ahead of this match.

Even so, the Spurs striker is the Gameweek’s most popular captain with the backing of 867,000, just 40% of his remaining managers.

He will be tested by the Clarets backline that has conceded just three goals in home matches. However with James Tarkowski suspended and Stephen Ward still sidelined by injury, Sean Dyche’s rearguard could be stretched.

Ben Mee is still found in 724,000 squads and starts, while goalkeeper Nick Pope – owned by 357,000 – will be charged with repelling Kane and the likes of Christian Eriksen and Son Heung-min.

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

      Good underlying stats. Ask Virgin, he’ll tell ya. Better keep. And stop watching the game while you’re at it. Only go by stats. Stats over everything.

        why would you not watch the games?

        1. Oven Glover
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          It ruins the stats.

            • 14 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            That just makes no sense

      Spare a thought for this guy. He has sissoko. Bless him.

    Jaysus sissoko

  9. Sim Simma

    Burnley without Ward and Tarkowski are pants

  10. Fred the Red
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Best replacement for Ward?

    Rest of defence is: Ryan, Elliot, Otamendi, Christensen, Jones, Mbemba

    Budget: 4.8

    1. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years

    Sissoko is the worst player in the pl.

    Each time I watch him he only convinces me of this even more.

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

      he looks like a sprinter who runs in a straight line
      not a footballer

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

        Jesus it looks even worse in slow motion.

        What a terrible excuse for a footballer. No balance, no techniques, no vision, no football sense.

        I don't get it. I just don't get it.

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He’s pony. He only plays because he runs non stop and works his ass off

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

        A jack Russell could do the same job and probably get more of the ball.

        I don't buy the endurance excuse for trying to pass fit guys off as footballers.

        This guy shouldn't be on a football field.

  13. Jar Jar Winks
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    hartson is as bad commentating as sissoko is at playing football

  14. Guy Demel
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Pointless player

  15. Ravager
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Damn. So much for Burnley having a system and wouldn't miss the absentees...

  16. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    On 84 (-4) after bonus with Vardy to go.

    How much have you got, guys?

    Was hoping for Kane, Alli, Erik, Lukaku, DDG and Jones blank

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nice.

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

      Exactly same with Kane Pope and Jones to go

      Keep taking shots Sissoko!

    3. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Less is more

    4. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      56 with Kane (c) playing currently and 3 to go.

  17. No Luck
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Pope, Mee and Long on the bench. Fill your boots (K)ane!

  18. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Lowton might get in for a CS here

  19. Harry Ball Bag™⚽⚽…

    What are aguero owners doing for next gameeek? Selling or keeping?

    Justin's thinking he will be rested n Jesus starts

    1. Rik Waller
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Bring Morata in for him. I'd say he's almost certain to be rested

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

      Keeping. think he is there no 1striker ahead of Jesus now.

    3. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe keeping. My target is having Kane in gw 22.

  20. Don Rogers FC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    Quite nice to be a Kane owner, but non-cartainer and feel happy about him scoring, for a change.

    1. Don Rogers FC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      *captainer*

  21. Garfield1001
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    Any news on whether Daniels is likely to return next GW?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Too soon probably.

  22. Positive vibes
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Need Cork own goal to win h2h. Can't belive Haz and Richarlison blank (again).
    Play DCL with Kenny on bench.

    1. Don Rogers FC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      That's a rough.

  23. Sandy Ravage
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Coaches love players like Sissoko and would love him to get more goals, but that's not his primary role in the team

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      It's not the lack of goals that's a problem. It's the awful touch, passing, decision making

  24. Guy Demel
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Davies assisting Kane for a second and a CS would be a nice present from a frustrating duo to own

  25. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
    • 8 Years

    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

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

      You didnt account for -2 after Kane nets 3 more. Unlucky.

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

        Then pope saves 6 more please.

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