Son, Eriksen and Wilson benched as rotation continues

Rotation continues to affect Fantasy Premier League managers as Gameweek 17 continues with the Saturday 3pm matches.

Son Heung-min (£8.5m) and Christian Eriksen (£9.3m) were named among the substitutes for Spurs ahead of their match against Burnley, while Harry Kane (£12.6m) and Dele Alli (£8.9m) got starts.

Kieran Trippier (£6.1m) comes back into the side having missed Gameweek 16 through injury, while Ben Davies (£5.6m) was deployed at centre-back with Danny Rose (£5.8m) on the left.

Youngster Oliver Skipp (£4.5m) is set for his full Premier League debut in midfield.

With Bournemouth away at Wolves today, Callum Wilson (£6.9m) returned to the matchday squad after injury but was deemed fit enough only for the bench. Simon Francis (£4.4m) misses out meaning a second start of the season for Tyrone Mings (£4.3m) in the back-three.

Wayne Hennessey (£4.5m) misses out for Crystal Palace, meaning Vicente Guaita (£4.2m) comes in to replace him as Leicester come to Selhurst Park.

Jordan Ayew (£5.7m) lines up as a centre-forward with Wilfried Zaha (£6.7m) serving his one-match ban with Martin Kelly (£3.9m) filling in for the suspended James Tomkins (£4.3m).

Isaac Success (£4.6m) drops out of the Watford side hosting Cardiff with Gerard Deulofeu (£5.4m) coming back in to play up front.

    There should be a word for the moment you decide you'd settle for an assist from your captain. Whatever that word is, I'm there.

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

        My hopes are already rock-bottom 🙁

  7. Adriano
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    The combined transfer value of Kane, Alli and Eriksen is shocking... With Levy's history it will be interesting how this plays out

  8. Numb
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Llorente coming on

  9. Tommyg
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Bad Moves this week
    1) Buying Sean Morrisson instead of Holebas
    2) Playing Morrisson instead of Bennett
    3) Playing Fabs instead of Patricio
    4) Starting Wilson
    5) Captaining Kane

  11. Niho992

    What a loser club is Tottenham

  12. Alexis Nonsense
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Son, Alli, Eriksen, Lamela, Kane vs. worst defence in the league = 0-0

    Who would've thought the season in which Rondón would be a better asset than Kane would ever come 😛
