Reunion for Spurs’ attacking trio as Chelsea visit Wembley

Harry Kane (£12.3m) is set to play with both Christian Eriksen (£9.2m) and Dele Alli (£8.9m) in the Spurs’ starting line-up for the first time since Gameweek 4.

The talismanic striker has been considered out of sorts this season but that particular statistic just goes to prove how long it has been since Spurs’ attack has been at its best.

However, Mauricio Pochettino probably would have preferred a different fixture to get the trio back together as they face a Chelsea side still in good form.

Maurizio Sarri has named an unchanged side for Gameweek 13 with Mateo Kovacic (£5.9m) coming through an injury doubt to start ahead of Ross Barkley (£5.9m) for a second Premier League match in a row.

Eden Hazard (£11.2m) will be looking to punish those that triggered a price-fall on Friday night as he and fellow wide-man Willian (£7.4m) go up against Serge Aurier (£5.8m). The Ivory Coast international is making his first league start since Gameweek 1 after Kieran Trippier (£6.2m) was ruled out with injury.

Juan Foyth (£5.0m) also starts a third match in a row at centre-back.

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR XI: Lloris, Aurier, Foyth, Alderweireld, Davies, Sissoko, Dier, Eriksen, Son, Alli, Kane

CHELSEA XI: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Luiz, Alonso; Kovacic, Kante, Jorginho; Willian, Morata, Hazard

    Sterling Sane Hazard 
    Aguero Arnie Jimenez

    ...Button Fraser Bennett Camarasa

    Money itb for Aguero -》Kane gw after, or get Kane and City defender for TAA?

      Robbo and Trent double up brave with no city and lpool tough fixtures. Stones for Trent if you can, benched today but more often that not he starts and is a good price

      1. KneejerkJoe
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks, I might be able to afford Laporte if camarasa -》4.3 but I dont think pool fixtures are too tough?

        1. Leeroy357

          5 years, 4 months ago

          Sorry didn't realise you had triple city attack, i'd defo be looking at Alli over Sane to avoid the triple but given the way city are burying everyone atm, maybe it's not bad thing. Rotation will wind you up but they get enough points when they do play to not really worry about it

          Camarasa will get you 2 points a game, might as well get stephens from brighton who is nailed on 2 points a game as well when back from ban and will be 0.2m cheaper by then. Useful if you need the money cos odds are 3rd sub never plays anyway

          1. Leeroy357

            And on the fixtures thing, they aren't terrible but likely to concede against United, City, Arsenal and Wolves so probably max 4 clean sheets in next 8 and that includes Bournemouth and the derby so my best guess is 3 clean sheets in 8 whereas city likely 5 or 6 because lower teams too scared to attack them

        He can't do that with triple City. Personally I think double Pool defence/double City attack is great, I'm on wildcard and doing the same thing. Good luck!

  2. KGFC

    5 years, 4 months ago

    For non-WC managers, it seems like we'll have to take a couple of hits to get in players like Sane, Kane, Eriksen....

    Porn off, Mark's team on, sat back-to-back with FPLVirg, let's go.

    Let's see what Chelsea can do.

    1. Superflymonk
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Lol, think we've seen enough, don't you think? I mean, they weren't going to go a whole season unbeaten, at some point they'd get pummeled and the timeth for reckoning appears to be now.

  5. Regin

    big big mistake holding on to hazard instead of sterling when hazard was injured!
    another big mistake getting clown arnie fo jimenez,

    1. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      yeah that's gone tits up, I wouldn't have really considered it otherwise tbh but that was a big missed opportunity

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        I was talking about Haz/Raz btw

    2. el polako
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      WHU just played the best team in the league, their coming fixtures look as as you an get & Arnie is much bettet player thab Jimenez - calm down mate.

    3. Superflymonk
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      The Hazard holding on to I agree, knew he couldn't keep scoring every week, it's just that fear of high ownership makes you play dullard moves. Will haul his butt after Fulham

  6. JJO
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    When the fak did Digne lost his baps?

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      After deductions.

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Earlier

  7. FER FUSCH AKE
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    what do we reckon the LMS safety score will be?

  8. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Who would you rather from:

    A) Salah (only other pool player is robbo)
    B) Sane (have dsilva and kun - currently)
    C) Sterling
    D) Eriksen/Alli

    1. @FPLDIARYFPL
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      C

    2. HNI
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Salah if not knee jerky types to remove before new year

  9. HNI
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Geoff or any other Mod if you listening, you need to hype the RMT tool MUCH MUCH more. Not once I have got a blank captain using it to captain highest projected point scorer in RMT even if its just 1point!

    1. HNI
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      1 point in projection becomes 5-6 in real fpl as it showed today again Salah vs rest

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      It's because of the season

    3. willl
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      sorry what?

      RMT told me to captain Richarlison over Sterling this week.

      Good thing I didn't listen.

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Come on Doherty (C)

    1. KGFC
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Hoping either he hauls big or doesn't start at all... got VC on Sterling!

      1. Top 210 Club
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Nice! Have faith will work out

          • 7 Years

          Yep... have full faith in Doh!

    2. el polako

    Give me your worst FPL horror stories this season. All welcome.

    1. Liber
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Buying Richarlison before his red card and keeping Maddison for his red..

    2. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      I was doing to Mendy to Trent this week and feel aseleep

    3. Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years

      Kolarov didnt move to the PremierLeague

  14. UpAndAway
    • 10 Years

    Hazard to Sterling an option?

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      It is an option.

    2. KGFC
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Next GW Fulham... hold i'd say

  15. EgyptianKing
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Hi mates. I hope you are having a good GW.

    I have +10 points than my ML rival, and Patricio and Jimenez to play. He has Wilson and Fraser.

    You think I am good or still considerably risky?

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Probably good

  16. Pariße
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Whoever designed Chelsea’s training kits should go to prison.

    1. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      like Alonso?

      1. Pariße
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        hahaha yes

  17. FPLMarc
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Of the Super Six (Salah, Mane, Hazard, Sterling, Kane, Aguero), I can only seem to fit in four. So which two are least essential - Salah and.....?

    (Also some combo Richarlison, Arnautovic, Wilson to fit in)

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Kane

    2. Pacer.
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on your formation and finances

      There isn't really a correct answer to the question

    3. Respect My Authoritah
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Kane isn't part of that group imo, so him. And Mané

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Auba & Wilson are both on more points than Kane to be fair (at time of writing lol), and Eriksen & Sane both look primed for destruction in the coming weeks.

      Four of those 6 are also too much imo as you cant get Alonso & Robbo & a city Defender - who are all offering better value than the big guns. Trippier looks set to join that group shortly as well.

  18. Digital-Real
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    I'll take just one assist from Alonso.

  19. Make Arrows Green Again
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Morata offside again.

    1. Digital-Real
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      was born offside

  20. Bird Raymond
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    My move of Tony Marshall for Maddison for a hit paid off!

  21. tiger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Alvaro 'Offside' Morata

  22. Rash
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Get giroud on

  23. camarozz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Not too fond of that man utd jersey in my team and gw not even over yet.

    Any one watch Martial play today??

  24. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Get Giroud on. He can actually hold up play.

  25. el polako
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    How do you say offside in spanish ?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Morata.

      1. Marvin Moon
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Superb.

  26. Tornado
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Best mid for 6.6m or under? Already have fraser

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      none rly doing it

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Fraser seems about it... Rich next for a few € more, then Martial/Siggy/Pogba for another few €... then you're up into the DSilvas... then up into the Sane's & Eriksens before you get into the Sterling/Haz bracket etc

  27. Robe Wan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Morata is about as useful as Michael Gove

  28. The Left Duke #3
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    TAA's 15 beautiful points sitting first on my bench. Started Alonso Arnie Gudmundsson and Doherty ahead of him as had Robbo starting already.

    The ultimate backfire

  29. Rainer

    OMG SON OMG
