Son and Trippier benched as Eriksen starts for Spurs

Son Heung-min (£8.7m) and Kieran Trippier (£6.0m) are among the benched players for Spurs in their Double Gameweek 34 fixture.

With already-relegated Huddersfield coming to north London, Mauricio Pochettino has taken this opportunity to start Fernando Llorente (£5.1m) and Kyle Walker-Peters (£4.2m) in their place.

Christian Eriksen (£9.3m) has held onto his place in the side and without Trippier should have a greater involvement in set pieces.

Also, with Son on the bench and Harry Kane (£12.6m) injured, it is possible the Danish international could be taking the penalties too.

Ben Davies (£5.6m) comes in for Danny Rose (£5.8m) at left-back, while Juan Foyth (£5.0m) starts alongside Jan Vertonghen (£5.9m) and Davinson Sánchez (£5.8m) so that Toby Alderweireld (£6.0m) can have a rest on the bench.

Huddersfield have lined themselves up in a 4-5-1 formation with Karlan Grant (£5.0m) leading the line. He has two goals in his last two away trips.

Chris Löwe (£4.4m) and Jon Stankovic (£3.9m) are both playing out of position in midfield.

Spurs XI: Lloris, Walker-Peters, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Foyth, Davies, Sissoko, Eriksen, Moura, Wanyama, Llorente

Huddersfield XI: Hamer; Durm, Kongolo, Schindler, Hadergjonaj; Löwe, Stankovic, Hogg, Bacuna, Kachunga; Grant.

    What nationality is Juan Foyth?
    He has a Spanish first name, looks Norwegian, and I honestly have no idea where the origins of the name Foyth comes from?

    1. tafrère
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 14 days ago

      I think he's argentine.

    2. Rash
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 14 days ago

      Argentine

    3. Jafooli

  7. tafrère
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 14 days ago

    Most of Son (C) have Eriksen or Vardy as (V), so still hoping that Son stays on the bench so I can get Jota points. Plenty of time left though.

  8. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 14 days ago

    Son will come on 85th minute and get injured.

  9. Jafooli

    Team sheets??

      Duffy starts

  10. Alnair
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 14 days ago

    So many captain'd Son, if you didn't surely you must want a 1 point cameo even if you own him?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 14 days ago

      20 points

    2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 14 days ago

      Depends on autosubs and vice captains really, but on balance probably yes

    3. CloudSky
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 14 days ago

      I do.

      1. reo19uk
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 14 days ago

        Yep I have him but so many in my leagues have capped him I'm praying for a 1 point cameo

    4. TOPCAT1960
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 14 days ago

      this!!!

    5. tafrère
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 14 days ago

      As I said earlier, most of them have Eriksen or Vardy as (V), so no, still want him to stay on the bench.

      1. dark91
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 14 days ago

        Isn't a 1 point cameo + The Eriksen and Vardy points better than getting the VC points + subs?!!

    6. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 14 days ago

      I've captained him and want to see a 1 pointer. My VC is Eriksen and ML rivals have others

    7. Gregor
