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.

    Lesson learnt. Never captain anyone apart from City attackers, Salah or Hazard.

      Auba?

    This is why Poch doesn't win trophies. Tries to be clever.

      He got injured early in the game and is struggling with it still. Landed on his shoulder after a challenge for the ball

    Hard to believe there was talk of Rose to utd for 50m this time last year

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

      Cut him some slack. He's barely played in the last year. Utd have a ton of trash anyway.

    2. Bartowski
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      He'd fit in.

    3. El-Kloppico
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Utd use to overpay.. so why not.

    4. CloudSky
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Why? Obviously he would fit right in.

  14. JustPark

    Foster fail in the last five mins.

  17. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    I should have played Pat,Bennett and Doherty

  18. Top Lad Dakes.

    Kane actually sucks

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Hasn’t really started this season yet, but will probably come good

  19. N00B

    WGTA for Cardiff goals?

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

      Cam & none.

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

      Camarasa

  20. Deulofail
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Come on Son. If you're going to block a guaranteed Kamara haul, you can at least get something at the death so you don't ruin my clean sweep of returns, you........ tart!

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

      Alli spoils Son's assist!

  21. Kepa's at the wheel

    Poch's fault for that shite lineup. Deserves this

    1. rnrd
      • 9 Years

      Absolutely

    2. FFSbet.com
      • 8 Years

      Yes no creativity,Eriksen must start.

  22. The Train Driver
    • 8 Years

    PL just getting worse and worse in the past few years. Feels like 2 out of 3 games I watch are really boring and to see a great game is like once a month maximum.

  23. Football Heaven
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Wan bissaka has got me so many points yet he always gets points when he’s on my bench

  24. El-Kloppico
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Bennett cs smiling on my bench

    1. Numb
      • 9 Years

  27. HonestBlatter
    • 13 Years

    Spurs cannot play against the bus

  28. FPL DONKEY
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Get Kane because he's nailed over Christmas!

    Problem is... it's Harry Kane

  29. Niho992
    • 5 Years
