Scout Notes

Which Spurs assets looked the best in Kane’s absence?

It was Lucas Moura (£6.7m) who proved to be the chief beneficiary of Harry Kane‘s (£12.6m) injury on Saturday afternoon.

Fantasy Premier League managers have spent the last few days trying to work out which of the crocked forward’s colleagues would take his place as the main goal threat, especially considering Spurs’ favourable fixtures.

A hat-trick for Moura in Spurs’ 4-0 win over Huddersfield has now thrown him into the Fantasy conversation for the coming weeks.

However, it was a result that only exacerbated the frustration of managers whose key options were rotated out of the side by Mauricio Pochettino.

Spurs 4-0 Huddersfield

Goals: Victor Wanyama (£4.9m), Lucas Moura x 3 (£6.7m)

Assists: Fernando Llorente (£5.1m), Moussa Sissoko (£4.9m), Christian Eriksen (£9.3m), Heung-Min Son (£8.8m)

With a Double Gameweek coming up against Manchester City (away) and Brighton (home) next week, Moura has played his way into our thoughts with an impressive display against Huddersfield. Owned by just 5.8% of managers, he has the potential to be a cheap and powerful differential in Kane’s absence between now and the end of the season.

Only Fernando Llorente (£5.1m) had more touches in the penalty area than the Brazilian on Saturday lunch-time, while no player had more shots on target than him in the whole match. Crucially, Moura was deployed as a centre-forward next to Llorente, a position that could get the best out of him if he can hold onto it. Pochettino was full of praise for the player so his chances of heavy involvement in the coming weeks look good at the moment.

“He was so important even before people start to recognise his value. We are happy because people can see how good he is now. He’s doing a fantastic job, he’s a great professional and a great guy.” – Maurizio Pochettino

“It’s a special day for me, a good moment, it’s my first hat-trick in Europe so I’m so happy and I don’t have words to express this moment. I just have to say thank you to God, my teammates, I’m so happy here and we’ll keep going strong to make history here.” – Mauricio Pochettino

Llorente huffed and puffed up front and did everything but score in a very good performance. He registered six shots in the box, more than any other player on the pitch, but did not hit the target with any of them. The Spaniard went very close at the start of the second half, showing great control to bring down a Juan Foyth (£5.0m) pass in the box, only to rattle the crossbar.

Llorente also flashed two headers wide, one in each half. His 0.8% ownership can rightly feel disappointed with just an assist. He also picked up a knock towards the end of the game which is why Son Heung-min (£8.8m) had to come on. Pochettino had the following to say when he was asked about the current injuries ahead of the return leg against City, including Llorente’s:

“We need to assess Fernando (Llorente). We hope we can recover Dele Alli and Harry Winks. We’ll see because yesterday he felt his groin in training. Dele, we’ll see. It’s not clear and we’ll see what happens.” – Mauricio Pochettino

Son captainers would have been pulling their hair out after he came on for a brief cameo to replace the exhausted Llorente in the 86th minute. However, he did at least manage to get an assist when he teed up Moura to complete an impressive hat trick.

The South Korean was one of many key Spurs assets to fall foul of the rotation that Pochettino had promised us. Influenced by Champions League matches before and after Double Gameweek 34, the Spurs boss rang the changes on Saturday lunch-time, making seven changes in total.

The leader of the captaincy poll Son found himself on the bench alongside Kieran Trippier (£6.0m), Danny Rose (£5.8m) and Toby Alderweireld (£6.0m). Not surprisingly, Dele Alli (£8.8m) and Kane missed out completely due to their respective injuries.

“We’ll see (on Alli’s hopes of playing midweek). He’s doing some training sessions with the protection. He needs to feel comfortable. It all depends on the time.” – Mauricio Pochettino

Kyle Walker-Peters (£4.2m) came in for just his first start in 2019 at right wing-back in place of Trippier with Ben Davies (£5.6m) on the left in place of Rose.

Davinson Sanchez (£5.8m) was flanked by Jan Vertonghen (£5.9m) and youngster Foyth who made his first appearance since Gameweek 27 in a back three.

Walker-Peters and Davies got forward at every opportunity and were always a threat but neither are viable FPL options with Trippier and Rose likely to be Pochettino’s first-choice wing-backs for the final few weeks of the season. These rotation-prone players are probably best avoided.

As mentioned, Moura and Llorente were tasked with leading the attack for Spurs and they did so to great effect, linking up well throughout. They earned praise from their manager for how they performed together, with Pochettino especially pleased to get a positive result with so much rotation.

“The football is moving so quickly. I think today Fernando was very good and an unbelievable afternoon for Lucas Moura. When you have 24/25 players they need to play. I thought the performance was very professional. The hat-trick will help build his confidence.”

Spurs dominated possession throughout and opened the scoring midway through the first half through Victor Wanyama (£4.9m) who broke from midfield to get on the end of a Davies pass which was intended for Llorente. The Spaniard was deemed to have got a slight touch on the ball before it ran through to the Kenyan who coolly rounded Ben Hamer (£3.9m) to slot home his first goal for over a year.

Three minutes later, the game was all but over, this time Wanyama’s midfield partner Moussa Sissoko (£4.9m) burst forward and played in Moura who finished in style, giving Hamer no chance. Spurs were able to take their foot off the gas after half an hour. Moura wrapped the game up late on with two great goals, one a fine finish from a great cross from Christian Eriksen (£9.3m), the other provided by Son.

Eriksen made his owners sweat, leaving it late to register his assist for Moura’s second. Otherwise, it was a quiet display from the Dane. He spent a lot of the game playing deep, receiving the ball from the centre backs and spraying it around the pitch. In fact, Wanyama and Sissoko were often more advanced than the Dane. Eriksen got forward a bit more in the second half and had a decent shot deflected onto the post. Despite playing deeper at times, he still managed five shots at goal, more than Moura, but none of them landed on target.

Eriksen also created more chances than anyone else on the pitch (six) although his set pieces were below his usual standards. He hit the wall from a good position in the first half. That continued a run of over three years in which he has no goals from direct free-kicks for Spurs.

Huddersfield posed little threat to Hugo Lloris (£5.4m) in the Spurs goal. Their best chances fell to Jon Stankovic (£3.9m) who should have done better when he got on the end of a corner slicing his effort wide and Steve Mounie (£5.8m) who headed wide from a good chance not long after coming on. The clean sheet never looked in too much danger of being wiped out. The French goalkeeper was a popular pick for those playing their second Wildcard this week and they’ve got off to a good start with him. Aside from the City fixture, Spurs have a nice run-in which should yield more shutouts.

Jan Siewert made three changes to his side with Juninho Bacuna (£4.2m), Florent Hadergjonaj (£4.3m) and Elias Kachunga (£4.8m) coming into the starting XI to replace Tommy Smith (£4.4m), Aaron Mooy (£5.0m) and Alex Pritchard (£4.8m) who were all named on the Terriers’ bench. Jonas Lossl (£4.4m) and Philip Billing (£4.5m) were once again omitted from the matchday squad.

“I’m disappointed because the result doesn’t reflect the way we played today. We wanted to be the first team to score here and we know it’s not easy to play Spurs because they’ll run you ragged.” – Jan Siewert

Tottenham Hotspur XI (3-5-2): Lloris, Walker-Peters, Sanchez, Vertonghen (Rose 83’), Foyth, Davies, Sissoko (Skipp 73’), Wanyama, Eriksen, Moura, Llorente (Son 86’)

Huddersfield Town XI (4-4-1-1): Hamer, Durm (Mounie 68’), Kongolo, Schindler, Hadergjonaj, Lowe, Stankovic (Mooy 81’), Hogg, Bacuna (Williams 90’), Kachunga, Ahearne-Grant.

      wait and see liverpool game.

      id honestly be tempted to keep vardy another week, and maybe do it in 36

        Sound advice. Cheers

        That's my plan, with Eriksen to Mane then too. Saved some money for these moves.

        But then you get some horrific results like today and I may rage a transfer to get Dunk out ruining everything.

  2. Top Lad Dakes.

    Who do you reckon is in better position to come out on top this gameweek?

    A) Laporte Robertson Mane +1pt
    B) Ryan Kolasinac KDB

    Both have Aguero and Duffy playing. Pretty tight!

    3. The_Fish

      Could easily go either way. Laporte rested, KDB gets a goal and you think B. Robbo clean sheet, assist and 3BP and you think A.

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years

        yep, fine margins. should be interesting

    Double gameweeks are a curse. Gonna take a monster score next week to recover Pogba, Fraser and Wilson’s points. Stupid bleeding game.

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

      It's so frustrating spending hours doing research and planning and ending up with 20 points with a few players left. Whilst your old team has Wilson, Fraser, Pogba and Boruc as starters.

    2. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Yep, c'est la vie sometimes. Thankfully kept Pogba but ditching Fraser Wilson Anderon after them doing zilch for me when needed (i.e. BGWs) is incredibly frustrating, to say the least.

      Bunch of fannies!

    3. MTPockets
        4 years, 11 months ago

        It's hilarious. 11pts from 6 inc cap - made sense at the time but what an idiot

      • VicGunner
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        It’s laughable isn’t it? I think double game-weeks have proven to be overrated this season. Too much rotation. Unless you’re Pogba of course who must be a robot, always plays but scores when you don’t have him!

    4. Queens of the South Age
      • 6 Years

      Got lucky with a last minute transfer as didn't have time to change starting 11. Ended up with Yoshida playing instead of Jota, Doherty or JWP.

      Any other tales of luck to brighten up a pretty rubbish day?

      Oh Wilson and Brooks finally did something.

      I’m still top 10k and hating this year. Been brutal for the people who plan. Tempted to call it my final year tbh.

            Fair enough. If it’s affecting your mood. Time to have a break. But don’t quit

              • 11 Years
              4 years, 11 months ago

              I won’t quit. I know I won’t. But when I’ve recommened triple Brighton defence to my friends here and in real life and they concede 5 AND Pogba and the Bournemouth guys I just sold score it’s just unbelievable

        DId you keep any BOU boys on WC? Can't imagine many did.

        1. Richd
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Nope

        2. Whats the Huth
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          I didn’t WC. I had a feeling that this week and the double would be brutal. This is the first time in goodness knows how long, we’ve had 6 teams still in Europa/CL
          We knew rotation would be immense. And I couldn’t for the life of me, understand why people were getting Brighton players in. Let alone captain them!!!

          I'm sorry, but I'm still giggling at your higher floor post from last night, amidst the son chaos.

            I know right ! 😀 tbh if it wasn’t me I’d be laughing too

            1. Richd
              • 11 Years
              4 years, 11 months ago

              I still think it’s true even if the end result wasn’t the case. If that makes any sense

              1. JackJack
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 11 months ago

                You were reluctant to say your math was indeed bad, which it was. You just didnt anticipate them losing by that many, dont think anyone did.

                1. Richd
                  • 11 Years
                  4 years, 11 months ago

                  Yeah clearly didn’t expect that. I’d honesty do it again. I could have played it safe but triple Brighton defence with one captained was for me. I’m almost grateful to be at 0 and get one bite at it !

                  1. JackJack
                    • 7 Years
                    4 years, 11 months ago

                    It's a brave move for sure. Maybe next time dont goad others before your lad has even played, it doesn't look good and there are enough users on here who will do that for you.

                    1. Richd
                      • 11 Years
                      4 years, 11 months ago

                      Well I don’t hide from it ever and like to think I’m right more often than I’m wrong.

                        Surely you knew triple Brighton in any format was bad news with such rank fixtures for BB? I thought I’d be able to cover people like yourself this week when only able to bring in Duffy by TC him (as I was going to on Kane anyway and no other great options remaining). Didn’t think it would be as bad as a 0 after game 1 though. Here’s to a big haul for the Duffy against Cardiff. Will hurt if he doesn’t gets 6 at least somehow.

                          What ?

                          You TC Duffy and thought triple Brighton d was a bad move ? Why?

                          Clearly you were concerned about that upside.

            Bet you're crying out for a Sterling no show hahaha. Gg for Captain Moura, I had him but gut said Lukaku. Could've been worse I guess

            1. Emiliano Sala
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 11 months ago

              Hell yeah. Those 16 points staring at me
              Moura may keep his place with that performance. Maybe a season keeper

                • 5 Years
                4 years, 11 months ago

                Yup, Martial and either Rom or Vardy to Mane, Deeney my most likely transfers

        • HD7
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Redmond JWP or Deolufeu in for Camarasa in 35?

          I know we tend to choose the hero of the day ...in this case its Redmond

          Should I prefer him?

          1. Emiliano Sala
            • 7 Years

            Deu but wait and see

          2. MTPockets
              4 years, 11 months ago

              Deulofeu if confident in his minutes

          3. Eytexi
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            61k OR after a good day - too late for top 10k?

            1. Emiliano Sala
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 11 months ago

              There is a 100 points gap I think. Too much

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

                Shame, mini leagues and top 50k target it is.

            2. MTPockets
                4 years, 11 months ago

                Probably

              • 8 Years

              Vardy, Wilson, Rondon. Who would you sell first?

                Depends who you get in. None have a double

                  • 8 Years
                  4 years, 11 months ago

                  Precisely. I’m looking at Deeney & Jiminez.

                  1. Richd
                    • 11 Years
                    4 years, 11 months ago

                    Both good options and captain options for next week

              2. Emiliano Sala
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 11 months ago

                Rondon

                1. The Royal Robin
                  • 8 Years
                  4 years, 11 months ago

                  I have exact cash for Rondon > Deeney

                  1. Emiliano Sala
                    • 7 Years
                    4 years, 11 months ago

                    Sell rondon first. Next week vardy. Ings not bad too. Can you wait after watford game?

                    1. The Royal Robin
                      • 8 Years

                      Yeah I can.

              3. MTPockets
                  4 years, 11 months ago

                  Maybe Vardy, looking at their fixtures

                  1. The Royal Robin
                    • 8 Years
                    4 years, 11 months ago

                    Aye. Unfortunately can’t afford Laca. Jiminez could be ideal but Wolves are streaky.

                    Hold off on Ederson for the moment. He has been pictured having treatment (see Ben Dinnery tweets).

                    We'll know the deal by tomorrow anyway.

                  I always have problems understanding this kind of post. You put him first sub for a reason . You are not unlucky just got the decision wrong. Tbh nobody wants to know that you had him as first sub anyway.

                        Auba and Lascelles out

                        Duffy and Jimenez in (-4).

                        Last week: Salah and Arnie out, Mane and Auba in (-4).

                        Pretty awful. Ironically green arrows (so far).

                    Maybe they just wanted some sympathy.

                    I appreciate that after reading 25,000 similar comments though it can become a bit - boring.

                        I do regret my post. Does my head in when I see these type of posts.

                        Maybe Mane will be rested. The actual dream.

                        Channel your inner Roger Mellie.

                        Would be very funny if you posted in that style in response to posts you disapproved of. It would add a new dimension.

                        Starting every single match maybe
                        But after hudd they have a long rest. Cardiff more possible but still unlikely

                            Even if they make it to the CL semis, have 4 days rest before HUD and 3/4 days after.

                              Oh CL game just after hudds
                              Rotations vs hudds!

                        I'm on 26 with 5 left but I'm happy since I didn't have a WC. Hoping Salah(C) pays off, but I'm not too confident.

                        Duffy - > Kolasinac for bench boost?

                        Also have Ryan.

                        I was honestly planning on it before todays cluster f......

                            His minutes are a concern, but probably still trumps Duffy

                          Watching MOTD. Can't believe how badly Brighton played. Allowing Bournemouth to pass into the net.

                          Guy in my mini-league accidentally played bench boost. Wilson and Fraser on his bench. And yes, I went triple Brighton at the back.

                          Is it a sin to do a mini WC after the actual WC......?

                            Nope, who cares now. Its a random free for all. Go for it

                                That's where my mindset is at right now

                            Better to correct things especially if BB.

                            Better to accept the mistake now.

                              Nothing too drastic.
                              Ryan out
                              Maybe AWB too
                              Hazard could come in for one of the spurs mids
                              Talked myself out of bringing Babel on WC, feels like chasing now

                          Whoaa - first time back in top 100k since GW18. Now just to stay there with a decent BB haul
