Scout Notes

Kane, Son and Alli continue blistering start to Mourinho’s reign

Tottenham Hotspur 5 Burnley 0

Goals: Harry Kane (£10.9m) x2, Lucas Moura (£7.0m), Son Heung-min (£9.9m), Moussa Sissoko (£4.9m)

Assists: Alli x2, Son, Kane, Jan Vertonghen (£5.2m)

Bonus Points: Kane x3, Vertonghen x2, Son x1

Harry Kane (£10.9m) delivered two goals and his first double-digit haul in 15 matches as Spurs put Burnley to the sword.

The Tottenham captain had managed just one goal from his last four starts prior to Saturday’s fixture, but he added an assist and the maximum bonus award to his brace to hand a season-best 16 points to his 18.3% ownership in Fantasy Premier League.

Rotation issues mean Christmas is rarely the season to be jolly for Fantasy managers. Kane’s untouchable status at his club and the lack of viable alternatives up-front – five-minute wonder Troy Parrott (£4.4m) anyone? – mark him out as a festive exception.

Kane suggested he can get back to his best at Spurs in a big win over Burnley

Even he is unlikely to start all of the next five games, which begins with tough tests against Wolves and Chelsea. But if he shows further evidence that he’s finally relocated his mojo, the run of Brighton, Norwich and Southampton that follows could bring in his New Year with a bang.

Kane certainly ensured Burnley went down with a whimper at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Sean Dyche’s side managed just one attempt on target all match as Spurs overwhelmed them with pace and attacking intent from the off.

The hosts were ahead after just four minutes when Son Heung-min (£9.9m) laid off the ball to Kane and he lashed home a shot from close to 30 yards out.

That could have been the goal of the match, and yet it didn’t come close.

Alli has delivered in every game under Mourinho

Lucas Moura (£7.0m) doubled the advantage five minutes later from close range, with the assist going to the in-form Dele Alli (£8.7m), somewhat fortuitously, as the ball grazed his head before reaching the Brazilian.

But the goal was essentially down to a superb jinking run by Son that carved open Burnley’s backline.

That could have been the run of the match, and yet it didn’t come close either.

Son then set up Moussa Sissoko (£4.9m), who hit the post, before being denied a tap-in when clean through with Alli, who dithered just long enough for the golden chance to go begging.

The South Korean clearly decided he wasn’t going to rely on anyone to get him a goal after that, so he did it all by himself with the run – and goal – of the match after 32 minutes.

Picking up the ball on the edge of his own area, he burst past half the Burnley team on his way into the other box before finishing with ease past the helpless Nick Pope (£4.7m).

Among Spurs players, only Kane is more popular in FPL than Son (17.2%) at present, and he’s clearly enjoying life under Jose Mourinho, with two goals and four assists in the four matches since the Portuguese coach took charge.

The South Korean has proved to be an incredibly reliable Spurs assets since Mourinho took over. Providing both goals and assists, he has averaged 9.3 points per game, while Alli has managed 9.5 per game.

Vertonghen got himself an assist and a clean sheet against Burnley

Jan Vertonghen‘s (£5.2m) tackle diverted the ball to Son to earn him the assist on the wonder goal – the Fantasy equivalent of a brush merchant being given some of the credit for the Mona Lisa. Not that the Belgian’s 1.4% ownership will be complaining as it helped their man to 11 points, nearly half his total of 25 this season.

Sandwiching all of that came Burnley’s chances to make a game of it.

A Robbie Brady (£5.5m) header hit the bar and post before Davinson Sanchez (£5.3m) did well to deny Chris Wood‘s (£6.2m) header from the rebound. Jay Rodriguez (£5.7m) then had one header comfortably saved by Paulo Gazzaniga (£4.6m) and missed with another when he really should have scored.

And that was pretty much it for the visitors, who went four down nine minutes into the second half when Kane smashed in his second from inside the area. The assist came from Alli, who is another midfielder thriving under Mourinho.

More than 380,000 managers bought into him for Gameweek 16 and, despite a relatively muted display, he still produced nine points and now has three goals and as many assists from Mourinho’s four-match tenure.

Even Sissoko is proving to be an attacking threat these days and he channelled his inner Son when going on a surging run of his own, exchanging passes with his skipper and poking in his second goal in three Gameweeks.

For context, it had taken him four seasons to match that output previously, but such is life for Spurs at present under Mourinho.

Spurs have been completely revitalised under Mourinho

In the four Gameweeks he’s been in charge, only Liverpool can match Spurs for goals (12) and the side has found a real ruthlessness, with a 24% goal conversion rate well beyond the Reds’ 20.3% total.

And, for once, Spurs kept a clean sheet as well – only their second all season. That fact didn’t escape Mourinho in his post-match analysis.

“Yes, I’m very happy with that. I told the boys at half-time that the clean sheet should be a collective ambition, not something that belongs to the goalkeeper or the centre-backs, everybody. I could give an example of Lucas (Moura), he was one of the players further from our goal but his commitment in the defensive process was very strong.”

Serge Aurier (£5.0m) is the most popular asset in the backline, with 6.1% ownership, although rotation is highly likely to bite the full-backs over Christmas, even if the Ivory Coast international has little competition at right-back currently.

Sanchez and Toby Alderweireld (£5.4m) are Mourinho’s preferred picks at centre-half and might, just might, stay that way for the rest of this year.

Son’s energy and dynamism has spread around his team-mates since Mourinho arrived

What is not in doubt is the vibrancy and dynamism of Spurs’ attack, with the midweek loss at Manchester United the exception, not the rule.

That suggests even those tricky fixtures against Wolves and Chelsea won’t stop the rush to bring in their offensive assets, with Son, Alli and Kane all in the top five for Gameweek 17 transfers-in at present.

But before we all get drunk on the fumes of Tottenham’s attacking spirit, remembering the quality of the opposition they demolished should sober us up a tad.

Burnley have had a wretched week, losing three straight games by an aggregate score of 11-1 and prompting Dyche to play the injury card post-match.

“We’ve had a really tough week though and we are depleted at the minute. We have as many injuries to key players as I can remember, which doesn’t help. But onwards and upwards; that’s the way it is. We’ve done it before, and we have to continue doing it.”

Burnley have not enjoyed the last few days

On first glance, Burnley’s squad is not so badly off, although stalwarts such as Ashley Barnes (£6.3m) and Ashley Westwood (£5.4m) are currently absent.

And their schedule is pleasant enough, with trips to Bournemouth and Everton and visits from Newcastle, Manchester United and Aston Villa before the FA Cup third round makes its unwelcome Fantasy appearance in early January.

But the present malaise is more than just a week old.

No side has currently conceded more goals than the 20 they’ve shipped over the last eight Gameweeks, and their decidedly underwhelming 9.2 minutes per chance average over that period means the strikers have been over-performing to score the ten goals they’ve managed – a tally that supposedly goal-shy Newcastle have reached from one game fewer.

That should keep most of their players off our Christmas lists unless Dyche – a past master at turning things around – can re-invigorate his troops pretty much immediately.

Instead, it’s Son, Alli and now Kane who are likely to provide us with some festive fun, with maybe a defender or two worth monitoring if the side can continue to embrace Mourinho’s more traditional tastes in the busy weeks ahead.

    3. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years

      Probably blank and then score a brace away to the 1970s Brazil team.

  3. EL_FENOMENO

    4 years, 3 months ago

    a) Ings + Maddison
    b) Grealish + Abraham

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years

      b if chelsea get back on it

  4. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    1FT 1.3 ITB left... would you do Pulisic to Alli? Wait a week due to fixtures? Tough one

    Pope (Martin)
    TAA Soyuncu Lundstram (Kelly Rico)
    Mane KDB Pulisic Maddison (Dendoncker)
    Vardy Rashford Jimenez

    Feel I need some Spurs who are rocking it and prices rocketing, but 1) feels wrong selling Puli before BOU and 2) feels wrong selling KDB despite City being dross

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Wait for UCL line ups mate but I think I would if line ups go that way

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah if Puli gets most of the 90 and CHO / Willian get a good rest I may do it. Just tempted to hold off due to all of Bournemouth's defensive injuries, but Pulisic with blanks against WHU and EVE since I got him while Alli has hauled is not good

  5. Amey
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    KDB very unlucky to come out with a blank against United. Excellent stats.
    I'd think twice before selling him.

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Been telling everyone who asks this. He is back in the role where he was when he was hauling every week

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah
        Rodri Gunda back fit means him playing aggressive role again

    2. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah seems well risky - just frustrating when you compare his scores to Son's the last few

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Not only way to get Sonny in.

        1. Top Lad Dakes.
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Is for me right now, unless I downgraded Jimenez or Rashford (who I just got)

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Cool
            GL

    3. Rash
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Let them sell. Will help me climb the ranks faster 😉

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Amazing

    4. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      How good are Sterlings stats tho

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Whoever watches City play knows Raz is playing deeper as ....
        KDB looks getting assist every time he gets past right side of the Defense.
        Has a bullet shot & set peices too. Can get 8/9/10 outta nowhere

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Wider not deeper*

        2. Eat my goal!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          No doubt - I'm not really a fan of stats. Prefer the eye test.

          I've been in two minds about bringing him back in for Mount once I ship Robbo

          Might just go Silva though coz that allows for Ings to rash also

          City just aren't at it

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Dilva is also a good punt.
            I don't like going without City attack somehow. They are City after all. Maybe that's a mental block but ...

          2. Bushwhacker
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            They put four past Burnely away midweek. Their defense is awful and they miss Aguero but they had 25 odd shots and 75% possession yesterday ... the bus held together but only just.

    5. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      considered it ofc, but no wont do it. I would want KDB again soon as he hauls

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Ha ha

    6. Christina.

      easy way to bet against the template

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I'm sorry, didn't get you mate.
        Are you saying he's an example of bad template player ?

            • 5 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Okay.
            Thanks TM 🙂

        2. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          saying if you sell him and the alternatives(Alli/Son etc) with low ownership outscore him you will do very well. Like with Salah and Sterling earlier.

          1. james 101
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Exactly the right move

          2. Amey
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Ahh
            Get you now. Yes, i got bump in OR as soon as i sold Salah for Mane & got Vardy in GW 9.
            Selling bad template players is the key then huh.

            Have Sonny in my team so bit relaxed tbh.

    7. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years

      Salah to KDB gw18 i think

      1. Amey

        Can work out.

  8. Jullepuu

    4 years, 3 months ago

    How do you guys feel about benching Jimenez next week? Team below (if I make the obvius transfer):

    Guaita Button

    TAA Robbo Soy Lund Reid
    KDB Alli Mane Mount Hayden
    Abraham Vardy Jimenez

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      One of TAA Robbo will be rested anyways

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        almost 0 chance Trent rested twice in a row in the league. Robbo maybe if not rested in UCL

        1. Pukki Party
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          He didn't really get his rest though.

      2. Bushwhacker
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I can’t see it. Milner at left back I guess ; Gomez showed how bad he is at right back (and how good as a centre back) so I’m not sure we have a good TAA alt.

    2. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      What's the obvious transfer?

      Not a chance I'd ever bench Jimenez really, and don't see why you have to with that team - play 343? Just bench Soy/Lund?

      1. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        The obvious move is Connolly to Abraham.
        Feels like Leicester will keep a clean sheet and that Lundstram hauls. Head ache for sure.

    3. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      sell in that case

      1. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Would be for a hit and couldn't afford Rashford

        1. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          then you play him

          1. Jullepuu
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Need to bench one of Mount, Soy, Lund then

              always play the attackers

              1. Jullepuu
                • 4 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                So a coinflip between Soy and Lund or is Lund still an attacker?

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Only if you think Jimmy hauls in 18

      1. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        With my plan I can either keep Jimmy for game week 18 or I can take a hit to replace him with Rashford. Leaning towards getting Rashford game week 19 or just keeping Jimmy.

    5. Stef rocks
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I wouldn’t - he is very likely to score or assist

      1. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Hmm could see Aurier giving away a penalty lol

  9. Dacra

      4 years, 3 months ago

      Well done mate.

      56 here after BAPs and autosubs, well pleased after having 4pts from 5 yesterday!

      Lacazette to go tomorrow, hopefully with a farewell haul!

    2. Silecro

        That's prob why you had a good one this week

    That guru Gaddafi is spot on saying hits are for kids. Could of got 89 instead of a poxy 85

      See.

  11. Slitherene
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Was considering Tark, Lundy & AWB : 4 YC
    PvA, Mings : Injured

    Wildcarding in GW 20
    Soyuncu - Aurier - Baldock - Kelly - Matip*

    Matip ➡ Which defender for GW 17-19?

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      interesting defence. I'd say AWB tbh. Or slabhead

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Cahill

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

    Kdb/Jimenez to Maddison/Rashford for -4?

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Not for me - though I'll have all 4 next week. All 4 could realistically do well so the hit may not pay off.

      1. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        It's not only about next week, but also who you see scoring most long term.

        I like Rashford over Jimenez.

      Ouch...my phone and fingers...only 3 players did something but even so Im thinking of saving a transfer. Any better idea?

    2. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      tough week yeah but team looks good - I'd be tempted to roll FT indeed

  14. Firminooooo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    72 points all out. First time inside top 10k this season. Not bad after 17 points yesterday. Hope Auba/Lac take it easy tomorrow.

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      GG mate. 56 after 4pts from 5 yesterday here haha. Yep an Auba pen miss and blank would be good, but I'm hoping for a lacazette hattrick 😉

    2. drughi
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      forgot it was one game left, yeah a boring 1-1 game please

    3. The Ejiptian King

      Also 72.

  15. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    weird week this, felt like 60 was good score but just seems fairly average tbh. Some people in my leagues in the low 20's, who got good points this week? People with ranks over a mill?

  16. Rhodes your boat

        Oh maybe not. Forgot it was Nor!

  17. drughi
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Cant decide between abraham and rashford as my jimenez replacement. Both have the fixtures but abrahams high ownership plus all my rivals have him sways me that way

    1. FPL_DON
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Abraham imo

    2. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      same here. One of Tammy or Jim going for Rashy.

      1. james 101
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Drop jimmy imo.

      2. My heart goes Salalalalah
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Jim out then

    3. Hart-ake
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Tammy. Bournemouth without central defenders next weekend could be a bloodbath.

    4. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Tammy is always a threath and I think Chelsea is still better going forward.

    5. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      VAR seems to be the only way forward.

  18. FPL_DON

    Pope (4m)
    Soyuncu TAA Lund Kelly Rico
    Mane KDB Son Pulisic Dend
    Ings Abraham Vardy

    Thinking possibly pulisic > Maddison/Alli/Grealish and bank my second transfer

    Any and all help much appreciated!

    1. Rhodes your boat
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Would keep puli for one last game

      1. FPL_DON

        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah I probably would mate but having to use this FT is tempting me!

  19. mdm

    Who to play:

    A. Kelly (BHA)
    B. Aurier (wol)

      I’d rather have Jiminez than Abraham I think at the moment, also unsure of getting rid of Maddison as he just keeps ticking along with returns.

      1. Gaddafi
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Ship him for Pulisic.

      2. Gaddafi
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Abraham > Jimenez.

        Time to sell Jimenez is now upon us.

        1. Christina.

            4 years, 3 months ago

            Leicester have city and liverpool soon.

            Not going to want maddison and vardy for those....

            1. Christina.
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              Vardy is a must no matter who he plays. City cant def.

              1. Flynny
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Yeah. Vardy stays no doubt.....

                Dunno about maddison tho for those 2....

    Thoughts?

    Ryan - Button
    Robbo - VVD - Chilwell - Tomori - Lundstram
    Salah - KDB - Maddison - Pulisic - Hayden
    Vardy - Jiminez - Connolly

    2FT, 0.7ITB

    A) VVD & Pulisic > 4.7 defender & Son
    B) VVD & Hayden > 4.7 defender & Zaha

    1. Gaddafi
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Nah just sit on it you're perfect.

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Will Watford score?
      No interest in Alli or Mane?
      Better off watching the midweeks.

      1. Gaddafi
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        This. Never transfer this early if at all. I don't know if you really need to. I would do A though as Pulisic and Zaha are completely useless.

  22. rokonto
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone know why Clark came off at halftime for Newcastle???

    1. Gaddafi
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      He's not first choice but he's replacing Lascelles.

  23. Gaddafi
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Who's more overrated Vardy, Lundstram, Soyuncu or Mané?

    1. Slitherene
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Lundstram out of the bunch.

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Söyüncü

  24. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    If I do Greenwood >> Tammy I will have a bit of a benching headache, who would you bench:

    1. Jimenez (TOT)
    2. Lundstram (AVL)
    3. Soyuncu (NOR)
    4. Mount (BOU)
    5. Save FT

    Thanks

    1. Gaddafi
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I'd bench Soyuncu or Jimenez.

      Honestly just sell Jimenez instead for Kane/Vardy.

    2. Jullepuu
      • 4 Years

      We are on the same boat mate

    3. Warby84

  25. royals forever
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    If you had to which MFer would you sell out of

    KDB
    Mane

    Any ideas would be welcomed

    1. Gaddafi
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      mane

      reason: overrated, overpriced, bad fixtures, rotations, other competitions.

  26. Stef rocks
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    This Gw has basically finished for me with no WHU and ARS assets. After a slow start yesterday - 16 pts from 4 players , out of which 12 from Son, it is turning out to be a good Gw - 70 total.

    Hope Auba and Laca don’t haul yesterday and looks like greens arrow!

    What would you change for next week:

    Henderson
    TAA Pereira Lund
    Mané Maddison Son KDB
    Jimmy Tammy Vardy

    Button Kelly Cantwell Reid

    Any news on Aurier injury?

    1. Gaddafi
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No but it's not looking good from what I gather. Lets hope he doesn't drastically drop in price or anything.

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Thinking about downgrading him and upgrading Tielemans to Alli..

        1. Gaddafi
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Just keep an eye on the price rises.

    2. Hotdogs for Tea

      not even flagged ?

      1. Bobby Digital

        He went off injured

    1. One Wheels Enough
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      You obviously decided to do it to gamble on a big green arrow... That's what gambling is 🙂

      1. nolard
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        yes, KDB did well in the game, but no points.

  30. Gaddafi
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    So is Origi getting rotated into the squad for the next few games?

    I'd buy him if I knew he'd play every second or third week as he's a guaranteed 10 pts when he does play the full match.

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Too risky for me

    2. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Dont go there.
