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.

    OUT: Tielemans, Traoré

    IN: Alli, Shelvey

    What do you think, oh wise ones?

    1. Party time
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Love the Shelvey pick 😆 . Great player( seems he has worked on his anger issues now) & back with them goals. Nice transfer but could easily backfire since Tielemans has norwich. All in all, It looks like a long term transfer. Yes for me if No Spurs asset already

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

      Play 3:

      1. Jimenez (TOT)
      2. Tammy (BOU) have Mount
      3. Lundstram (AVL) have Henderson
      4. Soyuncu (NOR) have Chilwell

      Thanks

        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        124 depending on who's your other keeper.
        Leicester cs more likely than Sheffield.
        Play Lundstram of course.

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

          have Henderson (sheff utd) in net... so bench Lundstram and play double Leicester defence rather than double Sheff ??

          1. Mo Salah No Mane
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            I'm worried about Lundstrams attacking points.
            Who's your other gk?

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

              Button

            2. Mo Salah No Mane
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              123 then
              Leicester cs looks good is the downside

        Have you guys ever looked at the current top players in the world?
        Just looked at the top 2 now.

        The guy who's 1st has played all possible chips so far, has 2 previous finishes of 2 million plus in his only other 2 seasons.

        The guy who's 2nd has played 3 of 4 possible chips already.
        Has only played fpl once before and finished 3.6 millionth.

        Safe to say neither one of them will win it I guess?

          The Norwegian chess guy is the most interesting one up there I reckon.

              Interesting article.
              Time to learn how to play chess and move to Norway!

            WOW!
            He still has all of his chips available.
            Looking good for him.

          1st is an ex Liverpool player.
          Will do well to stay top 50 for both.

          1. Mo Salah No Mane
            • 7 Years

            Yeah, poor bloke got an injury that cut short his career, I’m pretty sure I was at the match he scored his only goal in, a Merseyside derby

            1. Mo Salah No Mane
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              At least he found his calling many years later

          Can safely say that anyone who’s used their free hit or bench boost won’t win it, as they’ll get caught up during the blank GWs at the end of the season...

        1. Blueberg
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          I'd probably want jesus against arsenal to be honest. Can you do Jimmy to Tammy for free?

          1. Pep Roulette
            • 6 Years

              • 8 Years

          1. Pep Roulette
            • 6 Years

      6. Igz08
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Pulisic has gtg this week. Also have Tielmans. Worth a hit to sort out? Or Janmaat more pressing issue

        Henderson 4.0
        Lund Soy Kelly (Tomori Janmaat)
        Salah Mane Alli Pulisic (Tielmans)
        Abraham Rashford Mousset

      7. More Cowbell
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Do we think Tomori is likely to regain his place next GW?

        1. TorresMagic™

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          See who plays midweek in the big game.
          Tomori could easily get the easier game.

        2. Kane Train
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Tomori will play champions league and epl this week

          1. TorresMagic™

            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Chelsea get knocked out then.

            1. Kane Train
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              Nah will qualify

                • 14 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Tomori is a liability.

                1. Monster Pick
                  • 6 Years
                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  without tomori, chelsea still lost

      8. Kane Train
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Would u do Jiménez & Martial to Son & Mousett. If Mousett is out I have bench cover

        1. Kane Train
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Anyone?

        2. Digital-Real
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Mousett looked terrible today. Remove.

        3. Mo Salah No Mane
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Uhm yes
          Will you need Mousset to play? You could go Ayew?
          If he's staying on your bench go for Greenwood?

          Sell Tomori or save.

      10. Teahupo'o

        Lose one of these forwards for Rashford or bank the FT?

          How would you do Tammy to Rashford?

          1. Teahupo'o
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Likely TAA (and for a hit) as I see no viable options in other possible downgrades. 6.4 for a defender.

              Fair enough. Watch the CL games and decide from there.

                • 12 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Thanks. Even with the looming blank, difficult to get rid of TAA at home to Watford and Tammy at home to Bournemouth. Only injuries midweek would force it.

                1. Blueberg
                  • 8 Years
                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  I'm in same boat, thinking to slide it this week and miss a couple of price changes. Lose trent next week, fixtures after the blank arent so good.

                  1. Teahupo'o
                    • 12 Years
                    4 years, 3 months ago

                    Yeah, almost inevitable to lose TAA given those fixtures. It's the combined Abraham out for a hit that's difficult to do.

      11. Pep Roulette
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Martial or Rashford?

        1. Kane Train
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Rashford 100%. I just got rid of Martial for Son

          1. Mo Salah No Mane
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Rashford
            Martial is a nice differential though.
            If I still owned I'd wanna keep him but got rid last week

        If KDB price drops from 10.3 to 10.2 tonight and my current resale price is 10.0 will it stay the same or drop to 9.9?

                Thanks - turns out it will drop. With that in mind and a Kelly rise - what do you think of this?

                I can't see when else I would use my WC between now and GW20 as I will just bench Liverpool players in GW18.

        Ryan Button
        TAA Lundstram Soy Tomori Rico
        Mane KDB Zaha Mount Dendoncker
        Kane Vardy Jimenez

        2FT, 1.2 ITB

        I'd like to get Rashford/Alli in and my initial plan was to take Kane/Mount but I'll keep Kane for now (hopefully that's not a trap). Only other option to get both would be to take KDB out but I'm not sure I want to lose him before Arsenal. Thoughts on any of these moves below?

        A) KBD, Jimenez -> Alli, Rashford
        B) Tomori, Jimenez -> Kelly, Rashford
        C) Tomori, Mount, Zaha -> Kelly, Alli, 6.3 mid (Grealish?) (-4)

        Jiminez & H.Barnes to Wesley & Martial?

        1. Pep Roulette
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          In a world full of Grealish & Rashford, Wesley & Martial could be my differential!

            Rashford has only 1 extra point compared to Ings during last 3. I think I can live with 🙂

        Is it still worth keeping both Mount and Abraham?
        Or move Mount to Grealish or Tammy to Rashford?

        1. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Check next fixture. Decide after that.

            • 8 Years

            AVL have very nice fixtures coming up. But I get your point given Chelsea's nice fixture too
            Thanks

        2. UpAndAway
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Chelsea has an excellent fixture in this GW. Mount (6 points) and Abraham (12 points) is what they scored at home after its last loss vs West Ham away. I'm also thinking about making the same moves, but I may hold for one more GW.

          1. dark91
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Fair enough. The thing is if I start both and Chelsea blanks my rank will suffer a huge a blow

            1. UpAndAway
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              More confident in Abraham returning something FWIW.

        a) Ings to Abraham
        b) Jimmy to Abraham

        e) take a hit

          Cantwell > Grealish ready for the blank. Good fixtures for Villa coming up as well.

            Certainly tempting.

        2. dark91
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          D) Cantwell to Zaha/Grealish might be a good option

          Otherwise C

        I can't see when else I would use my WC between now and GW20 as I will just bench Liverpool players in GW18.

        So are the following moves worth a WC?

        KDB/James/Tomori/Greenwood > Rashford/Maddison/Kelly/Cantwell

        rest of team
        Gazza/Button
        Robbo/Soy/Lund/Rico/XXX
        Mane/Son/Alli/XXX/XXX
        Vardy/Abraham/XXX

        have 1FT atm

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Looks an improvement. Not sure I'd want to keep Rico there.
          Mainly losing KDB on the left.

          1. School of Poch
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            I agree - but at 4.1 who else can I bring in?
            Do you think it's bad to lose KDB... I know it could hurt but I just see the improvements on the right maybe being worth it.

            Is there anything against using WC now rather than later between GW17-20?

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member

              Arsenal might tell you tonight.
              Might sell him myself depending on midweek.

              1. School of Poch
                • 8 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Well I've hit WC and gone for it now so hopefully Arsenal magically become solid at the back and KDB stays defensive and doesn't punish me.

                Cheers for your help!

          @TM Thoughts?

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

            I agree with the rest.

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

              i.e. Wesley is a bit wild.

              1. Pep Roulette
                • 6 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Haha I know! But with the upcoming fixtures and everyone going for Grealish! Wesley could be a good differential, imo!

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

                  4g and 1 assist is hardly inspiring.

              2. Pep Roulette
                • 6 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Also, do you think Jesus starts against Arsenal? Worth keeping him for that game?

                1. TorresMagic™

                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  Only Pep can answer that but it's an issue. Keep unless Kun will start.

            Thank you. His substitution was injury related according to my Sofa Score app and now he's flagged. Hopefully nothing too serious but I didn't see the match and can't find anything else about it.

            Thanks Hits, definitely frustrating already. He helped me get Son a few weeks ago but will be moving him on for Ings sometime soon I imagine.

              Ings is another injury waiting to happen unfortunately, though i'd definitely prefer him. I sold him last night for Rashford, but I realise this could backfire horribly short term
