Spurs at full-strength as unknown goalkeeper appears for Bournemouth

Mauricio Pochettino has named the strongest possible side available to him for the trip to Bournemouth on Saturday lunch-time.

Kieran Trippier (£6.0m) and Danny Rose (£5.8m) have recently been in and out of the Spurs team for Premier League matches given their involvement in the Champions League.

However, both of them have been selected to face the Cherries this afternoon.

Pochettino has gone with a traditional back-four as Toby Alderweireld (£6.0m) and Davinson Sánchez (£5.8m) line-up at centre-back.

Christian Eriksen (£9.2m) and Dele Alli (£8.8m) both keep their places in the first XI while Son Heung-min (£8.8m) comes back in after missing the Champions League clash midweek.

The South Korean was suspended for the first leg against Ajax which will have kept him fresh for today and next week’s crucial matches.

His return to the side sees Fernando Llorente (£5.1m) drop to the bench.

Meanwhile, those who sold Spurs assets for Gameweek 37 will be somewhat nervous when looking at the Bournemouth team.

Unknown goalkeeper Mark Travers has been handed a first Premier League start and as yet is not even in FPL.

Artur Boruc (£4.1m) has been named on the bench while Asmir Begovic (£4.3m) does not make the matchday squad.

Callum Wilson (£6.8m), Josh King (£6.4m) and Ryan Fraser (£6.3m) all start for Bournemouth too.

    Have Spurs ever been this Spursy before? From being considered as title contenders to barely scraping top 4 (only because of the woeful quality of Arsenal, Chelsea and Man U).

    Not quite as bad as this half time dream duo on Sky though...

    Eric Dier is a poor footballer.

      Brainless, true of quite a few of the England set up

      I second this.

      Maybe, but he still did one of the best things ever seen on a football pitch when he wiped out Ramos.

      Poor man's Glen Whelan.

    Only thing positive about this is many have son, few have fraser. Lets go fraser scrap that cleansheet.

      Rather Wilson.

      Lerma collapsing like a girl. Vidal midweek showed what it is to act like a real man.

    All those who sold Son proper loving that! Was a pretty poor call to sell imo, but now seemingly a masterstroke.

    Pretty pleased I chopped Son in for Haz now!! 🙂 phew!

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

  8. Plymouth
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Of course cash league rival is the only one on FPL who doesnt have Son. Jesus christ this RNG kills me

  9. LǝgleSs e|even

    So much for Poch saving Son for this game. Just bad luck. Hazard Red incoming.

    1. Klein
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Didn't really save though. Had suspension for CL match

  10. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    This keeper would be on 2 points for saves at half time and on for 3 bonus easy

  11. Lukakwho
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Son can still play Ajax yes?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Oh dear

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

      Yes

    3. XabiAlonso
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Doesn't matter. Spurs are a terrible team either way

  12. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years

    Bad game week incoming.

    After holding Son and my ML rival transferring him out for Pogba, that RC could cost me my ML if Pogba hauls.

  14. Fred54
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Son suspended for GW38 then, should be well rested for GW1...

    1. Klein
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Will he be suspended for 1 and 2 too?

      1. Fred54
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        *Rested for the opening few games.

    2. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Nice and cheap, rested for GW3

  15. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    If that's violent conduct does he miss the opening games of next year?

    1. Supersonic Marv'
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Yes. Suspensions carry over.

    2. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      3 game ban

    3. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah, Suarez once missed the start of a season for violent conduct.

      1. Klein
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        To be fair, He just wanted a bite.

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

          Yes
          It was a professional foul.

    Son was supposed to be my differential to catch my ML leader. But now rewards me with a RC.
    FML, this season have sucked so hard, I am out. #ragequit

    1. Thiga
      • 8 Years

      Same here. Don't worry bro. I'm already laughing about it

      thanks for sharing your diary entry

  17. Thiga

    Sold Eriksen for a -4 and captained Son. Guess who won't be watching the second half 😆

    1. twoplustwo

  20. FPL Daniel

    Not feeling nice when I kept Son and sold Erriksen

    1. Manani
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      did the same lol, still feel like that was the right choice though on paper before this game started

    Alli is a prime example of English bias...

    1. twoplustwo
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Yep

    2. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Yea, mediocre player at best

    3. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      biased towards what?

  22. FPL Daniel
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    -0.2 or -0.3 for Son before we sell him? I want to tinker my options. Thanks

  23. Hardly Athletic
    • 14 Years

    My Son to Hazard transfer is looking really good now. 😀

  24. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Sorry for the few that TC'd Son. Got rid of Eriksen instead of him.

  25. Eddie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    My rival benched Son in order to play double Man U. Bloody psychic. I'm praying one of Pogba or Rashford don't play.

    1. F_Ivanovic
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Jeez, what's rest of team to bench Son?

      1. Eddie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Decent enough, 3 in defence, Jota, Mane, Sterling, Aguero and Jim

  27. Gudjohnsen

    Never own Son at the right time. Proper troll for me.

    1. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Nowhere near Haz status

  28. The Train Driver
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Ref sold Son

  29. Usually Babel
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Can't believe I'm reading comments that Son is overrated. Conveniently after he gets a red card. Ignoring his very good past 2-3 seasons.
