    Really silly challenge by Kane. Pointless tackle near the halfway line and went in hard. Why risk it. Feel for the guy but it's a poor decision.

      Do you ever feel any emotions? The guy’s competitive an playing in a CL QF

        Sure but it's about how it's expressed. Bad decision.

          If you had that mentality then you’d never make a tackle/throw yourself at a ball in the box

            No at all. In the box is totally different. There's a huge difference between a ball running out on the halfway line where the opponent is having to hoof it forward and you challenging in the box.

              Ever played football?

                • 7 Years
                5 years, 8 days ago

                Yes, and you?

                  Surprised. Yes played semi pro for 15years

                  1. Waylander

                    5 years, 8 days ago

                    Maybe your inability to make good decisions stopped you going pro. Headless chicken and all that.

                      I am with Waylander here. Seemed frustrated/reckless which led to unnecessary injury - bad luck though.

      Same needless challenge when Phill Jones put him out for 2 months injured in the 95th minute of a match

    3. AIRMILES
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 days ago

      I think that's easily said in hindsight.

      Some of my finest tackles have been made on the halfway line. If you play football you tackle the same no matter where you are.

    Higuain the man that keeps on giving. Avoided a second price drop by bringing in Kane last night.

    Knew the risks.

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years

      Ouch

    2. Pat Bonner

      Ouch, that’s unlucky

    City are absolutely filthy

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 days ago

      Kane was more to blame for his injury than Delph there, he had no reason to go in for that.

      1. Van der Faart
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

        I'm talking about the game in general. Otamendi has made about 7 fouls without a yellow.same with Fernandinho

          Man City are the best at making clever fouls high up the pitch in transition. It’s to stop the other team counter attacking before city get the defence in shape. Barcelona where also brilliant at it. It’s one of Pep’s most important tactics and no one talks about it.

            This! It's so annoying and the refs let them do it all the time.

      2. Waylander
        • 7 Years

        Spot on.

        5 years, 8 days ago

        Just pull out of every tackle is that what you’re saying? Avoid throwing yourself at a ball in the box to make sure you never get injured?

        1. Waylander
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 8 days ago

          Not at all what's being said. You make the decision based on the situation...

    Thank f*** I've learned my lesson and not made transfers yet

    As a Kane avoider I am disappointed. Think he was/is a sprung DGW trap

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 8 days ago

      I posted the same earlier and got so much stick for even considering it. Said I like Moura also but got slack

    2. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 8 days ago

      There’s that.

      But I’m also a Kun Sterling avoider too right now so still hope!

  6. tucaoneo
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 8 days ago

    If Kane is out then Eriksen, Son and Salah are locked in my team.

  9. Budweiser

          Any Watford fans out there please? Who's the most secure/safest defender please especially for GW 35?

          1. Pukki Party
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 8 days ago

            Cathcart

        4. Pompel
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 8 days ago

          Kane injury limits choices to a very standard template , at least as Agüero stays fit. Key choices between two of Eriksen/Alli/Son and which of Salah or Mané. Will be difficult to gain ground.

          1. The Tinkerman
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 8 days ago

            On the contrary, there are loads of options now.

            Can go lighter up top and very heavy in midfield. I'm probably looking at Laca, Deeney, Jimi and one city mid. Their rotation is going to be heavy.

            1. Pompel
              • 10 Years
              5 years, 8 days ago

              I'd guess most going Agüero/Deeney/Jimi now. But Laca certainly a good diff. Or Firmino, even.

        5. The Tinkerman
          • 8 Years

          352 is looking pretty good right now....

          Wonder how many had a bet on kane not scoring in the new stadium this year.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years

            New stadium, new Kane curse.

            Duffy!

              Last 8 I've owned Duffy

              -1 6 7 1 9 2 2 1

            Eriksen perhaps

            Duffy (C) is a bit mad, dunno if I'll do it

          3. Jack Burton

          4. Ask Yourself
            • 7 Years

            get those 30 points from duffy

        9. Emiliano Sala
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 8 days ago

          How bad was it?

          1. For Fuchs Sake
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 8 days ago

            Pretty bad, limped down the tunnel, no weight on it.

          2. BoleynWin
            • 6 Years

            He can’t walk, it’s looking season ending.

          3. AIRMILES
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 8 days ago

            Tough to tell, really. He's recently come back from an ankle injury so would understandably be very cautious about it. If it's a hard knock which he feels is going to bruise and swell, he'll want that in ice asap. HOPEFULLY that's all it was, and he'll be back in a couple of weeks, but it could be worse and he might be out a couple of months. We'll have to wait and see.

          Can Kane drop tonight? Do WC transfers affect prices?

            Drop? He's almost about to rise.

          Just home and was expecting a goal with the pages flying like so.

          Well, the wild card template shattered then! Lots of Kane money can be spread elsewhere. May even have to get Aguero now

        12. Burger
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          1. Rainer
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 8 days ago

            Better but still not great.

            The Kane money might make it just easier to keep instead of using a transfer in 36.

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Question is... Who takes Spurs pens now? Sonaldo?

          1. Ask Yourself
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 8 days ago

            Eriksen surely but I not sure

            1. Burger
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 8 days ago

              Eriksen has never taken a pen for spurs.

          2. FPL Pillars
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 8 days ago

            Alli probably

          3. Shineonme
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 8 days ago

            Son or Alli

        14. WannabeScout
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 8 days ago

          I got money to throw up in the air now... Deeney or Laca for DGW?

        15. Budweiser
          • 9 Years

          The annoying thing is I don't want Aguero
