Spurs still lacking attacking edge despite win over Norwich

Spurs 2-1 Norwich

  • Goals: Dele Alli (£8.5m), Son Heung-min (£9.9m) | Teemu Pukki (£6.5m)
  • Assists: Serge Aurier (£5.0m), Alli | Max Aarons (£4.3m)
  • Bonus Points: Alli x3, Pukki x2, Aurier x1

Norwich City’s defence continues to help boost the Fantasy Premier League prospects of their opponents this season.

Spurs came into Double Gameweek 24 with just one win in their previous six league matches but emerged 2-1 victors while forgotten about assets such as Son Heung-min (£9.9m) and Dele Alli (£8.5m) delivered for their remaining owners.

Ironically, neither player had a particularly impressive game, and Norwich actually held Spurs at bay for much of the evening, but, with key centre-back Ben Godfrey (£4.4m) suspended, the points came nonetheless, as they usually do against the Canaries.

Daniel Farke’s men continue to be the most scored-on team this season (47 goals conceded), which bodes well for Newcastle, Liverpool, Wolves and Leicester assets as they face them in the next four Gameweeks.

Furthermore, the longer Norwich stay rooted to the foot of the Premier League table, the more they may have to push forward in their remaining matches, thus exposing their already soft centre.

“We know it will be a big sensation – maybe a miracle – that we stay in this league.” – Daniel Farke

Whether this result should put Spurs players back on the FPL radar does remain to be seen. After all, no other team has conceded as often as their most recent opponents, and it’s Manchester City up next for Jose Mourinho’s men and a trip to Chelsea in Gameweek 27.

As already mentioned, Spurs were not exactly at their best on Wednesday night. Alli started the game slowly but managed to get in the right place at the right time for his goal, and it was a deflection that saw his second-half shot find the head of Son, practically on the line. They were Alli’s first attacking returns since the Gameweek 19 win over Brighton.

Playing on the left side of an attacking midfield trio, Son spurned some decent chances in the first half and, according to the local press, is still some way off his usual “vintage self”. As already mentioned, his second-half had an element of fortune about it, the ball deflected onto his head inside the six-yard box.

Meanwhile, Moura also received some criticism from the local press in his role as a centre-forward. While he contributed plenty of runs to the team, the Brazilian did not offer much more.

Spurs are clearly missing the injured Harry Kane (£10.8m) with neither Moura or Son in a position to occupy the vacant centre-forward position with much gusto right now.

However, the hope for Spurs’ attacking potential may lie in the performances of Giovani Lo Celso (£7.3m), who continues to improve with each outing.

The Argentinian was Spurs’ best player by some considerable margin against Norwich, the creative hub in midfield and also winning the ball back on plenty of occasions.

While Lo Celso did not contribute any attacking returns on Wednesday evening, it was he who played the ball into Alli so he may start contributing FPL points soon.

“Giovani is improving game-after-game. Today he was fantastic in everything. I think he is adapting very well to the league, he can play in various positions, he gives us lots of quality, vision, passing, he is improving his offensive game, he is improving his intensity. The only thing that worries me is the new life of English football of playing and playing and playing and in this case he is now playing all the time now because we don’t have different solutions. Even today when Lamela was out, no wingers so Giovani to the wing. It’s hard but I think it’s good experience for all of us, a good experience for the family.” – Jose Mourinho

Another decent performer on Wednesday was right-back Serge Aurier (£5.0m) as he put in an assured defensive performance to keep Todd Cantwell (£5.0m) at bay and played an excellent cross in for Alli’s goal.

Meanwhile, Ryan Sessegnon (£5.4m) struggled on the other side of defence as Spurs’ left-back issues continue. The former Fulham man was pegged back by the exploits of Max Aarons (£4.3m), negating the threat on that side of the field. Sessegnon eventually brought down Norwich’s marauding right-back to give away a penalty in the second half.

Pukki celebrates a goal for Norwich

Teemu Pukki (£6.5m) slotted the spot-kick away cooly in the 70th minute to ensure Spurs’ defensive problems continue under Mourinho. Since the former Manchester United boss arrived in north London, they have conceded 1.3 goals per game while only Bournemouth, Brighton and Wolves have recorded fewer than their total of two clean sheets in that time.

With that in mind, interest in recently added budget defender Japhet Tanganga (£4.0m) may subside somewhat. The 20-year-old started both Gameweeks 22 and 23 and was also the man of the match in the FA Cup third-round replay win over Middlesbrough.

However, he was only an unused substitute against Norwich, Toby Alderweireld (£5.3m) paired with Jan Vertonghen (£5.2m) at centre-back, although the latter appears still a bit rusty.

Another budget asset that has probably been knocked firmly off then radar is goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga (£4.6m) after a surprise early return for Hugo Lloris (£5.3m).

The Frenchman was originally expected back at some point in February after fracturing his elbow in Gameweek 8 but played 90 minutes against Norwich.

Admittedly, he didn’t have a great deal to do, managing to get a palm to Pukki’s penalty in the second half.

While Gazzaniga looks to be an inactive player from here on in, it was a cause of some joy for select Fantasy managers with Dean Henderson (£5.0m) and Nick Pope (£4.6m) to emerge from some people’s benches with 11-point and 10-point hauls respectively.

“The return of Hugo is mixed emotions for me. It’s happiness to see one of the best goalkeepers in the world to be back. It’s a very good feeling for us but at the same time it is one of these decisions that sometimes we must have it, but it hurts. To leave Paulo out hurts. The good thing is that he is such a good member of the family and he is such a special friend of Hugo that I think he also shared our happiness to have Hugo back as a friend. For me, he gave me a lot of thinking and I had to try to be cold to make a decision without emotions because to leave Paolo out is not easy.” – Jose Mourinho

Finally, Harry Winks (£5.2m) was taken off injured in the 55th minute with an ankle problem but Mourinho was unable to provide any update in his post-match press conference.

“I prefer not to know before I come in here so I come with a normal face. I don’t want to come in here with a very upset face, so I’m even afraid to ask, but when I leave here I have to ask.” – Jose Mourinho

Tottenham Hotspur XI (4-2-3-1): Lloris; Sessegnon, Vertonghen (Fernandes 75′), Alderweireld, Aurier; Winks (Dier 56′), Lo Celso; Son, Alli, Lamela (Eriksen 62′); Moura.

Norwich City XI (4-2-3-1): Krul; Byram, Hanley, Zimmermann, Aarons; McLean (Stiepermann 90+3′), Tettey (O Hernández 82′); Cantwell, Duda, Rupp (Drmic 86′); Pukki.

        Hope so!

  2. Mufc202020

    Struggling in a mini league filled with KDB owners.

    Would you join the KDB party or bring in aguero to try chase them?

    1. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Get both, ignoring KDB means you are always playing catch up

      1. iL PiStOlErO
        • 4 Years

        This

  3. OldBenKenobi
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Being stubborn and holding onto Vardy 😆

    1. Gunners in Haaland
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      keep

    2. StoichkovFPL
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      If Auba goes to Barca than I probably keep him too

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

      We need more info on his injury and will are likely to get it before one of the cup games. Holding till then at least

  4. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    You just know tonight is going to be a huge anti climax for Salah triple captainers.one all draw. Jimmy and Mane with the goals.

    1. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      1-0 Jimenez to rub more salt into the Jimenez > Ings move.

      1. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah why not. I got rid of Jimmy to fund Cantwell to Martial so I can see that happening for sure.

      2. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Great pain, here too

    2. Skalla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Hoping for a 1-0 Liverpool win with Firmino(c) scoring assisted by Robbo/TAA 🙂

    3. Soto Ayam
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I do it agree it'll be an anti - climax. I'll be regretting I wasnt brave to TC Taa

  5. XABI 15
    • 8 Years

    Wilson tempting anyone?

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Bou is my problem ... not convinced yet by just 1 win

  6. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    DCL, Deeney or Wood next 2-3 GWs before WC-ing? Got Ings ...

    1. balint84
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      dcl

    2. Skalla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I brought in Deeney for this GW and happy so far but DCL and Wood both good options.

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, I totally agree...sorry what were you saying....

  7. EL_FENOMENO
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Vardy to:
    a) Auba
    b) Kun

    1. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      B, GW26 is too risky to ignore

      1. phineedle
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        What's wrong with GW 26?

        1. Danno - Emre Canada
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Kun has West Ham

  8. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Need a triple hatty from Salah in each game, otherwise worst DGW ever....currently on 19pts 😆

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Only 81pts away from century

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        So there’s a chance?

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Yep unless only Salah is left 😉

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      the problem is the way this GW is going, he will probably miss a penalty and score an own goal, before being sent off !

    3. Skalla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      So triple hatty is 9 goals in each game just to clarify? I don't have Salah so that is very possible, good luck!

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yes 😀

    4. BRKFCTrueRover
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Trent 40 pointer coming for my TC

    5. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      16 myself 🙂 I raise you. Triple captain Salah can save us

    6. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Im beating you by 1 point, take that!

  9. StoichkovFPL
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Best move:

    a) Vardy > Auba
    b) Madds, Vardy > Fleck/Traore, Aguero -4
    c) Madds > 8.8 mid (who as have Grealish) and keep Vardy

  10. jtreble
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Jiménez now has the highest ICT for forwards in the league.

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years

      What does that indicate? I mean how to interpret those numbers?

    When do we expect the next BGW & DGWs?

    Need to start planning with FT, WC & BB chips which I have left, are blowing TC on Salah for this washout DGW....

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      GW28 is a possible blank, GW31 will be a multiple blank, GW34 will probably have teams with blanks and others with DGW's, and GW37 will be a DGW.

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      BGW 28

      1. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        possibly, EFL Cup Final postponement could be moved to midweek.

  13. b91jh
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Money become not quite important when the 8.0ish mids suddenly become a dead zone.
    Feels like it is either KDB/Mane/Salah or budget options in midfield, which free up funds to afford Aguero and LIV defenders maybe?

  14. sminkypinky
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Just added that my team has 7 players atm who have ONE point from this gameweek.

    Rich & Vardy --> Fleck and Auba for - 4 hit (bringing KDB for Martial for GW 26)

    1. bigdip
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Need help guys!

  20. S.Kuqi
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Those with enough funds to get either Auba or Kun for Vardy.

    Who is your pick and why?

    1. bigdip
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Auba because:
      1. he is a good differential
      2. He will definitely start every game (compared to Pep tinkering with Jesus/Aguero)
      3. Arsenal is about to hit good form

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Kun due to form plus that tasty GW26 fixture

      1. bigdip
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        but if you have KDB isn't that enough city cover for it?

        1. Pep's Money Laundry
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I've lost a 50 lead in 2 weeks due to rivals captaining Kun over the last 2 weeks, he has been a huge differential. Ignoring Kun in GW26 could be a rank killer

    3. Lukakuna
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping Vardy as a differential 😉

    4. Jullepuu
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Waiting for more news on Vardy (and Auba). I would get Auba over Kun

    5. Gentle_Turks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      If you're considering Auba then factor in his possible sale:

      https://www.forbes.com/sites/tomsanderson/2020/01/23/aubameyang-gives-ok-to-fc-barcelona-move/#69bcccc0769a

    6. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Definitely Kun but might be Auba for Burnley, then replace with Kun although Burbley fixture isn’t as tempting with Burnley improving their form and Arsenal playing away.

      Auba doesn’t play central striker so not sure if I’d even prefer him over Jimenez, Ings, etc.

    7. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I'm on Vardy to Auba but thankfully that price lock for 6 days stops any kneejerking

  21. Lukakuna
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Maupay owners are you keeping or selling? Fixtures are good and he has been unlucky not to score lately. But is DCL too is tempting?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I'd keep. DCL only good for another couple of gws

    2. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping but only as i have Kelly, Tanganga, Maddison, Vardy etc to deal with

    3. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping until he repays me. Which means I'll be paid in the official currency of Mars in 2057 when fpl has transferred to space.

  22. FPLHaggis
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Happy TC Day Folks!

    I have noticed a trend with my selections:

    15/16: Aguero (AVL): 11 x 3 = 33 (Inc. a missed penalty)
    16/17: Aguero (sun, STK) 7+2 x 3 = 27
    17/18: Sterling (HUD, BRI) 3+0 x 3 = 9
    18/19: Sane (ARS, eve) 0+1 x 3 = 3

    So, its been 5 matches since I felt the joy of a TC return....ouch. Good luck to fellow Salah TCers then!

    1. Coys96
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Where did you get this from?

      1. FPLHaggis

        Good old fashioned memory!

    2. FPLHaggis

      Would be interested to see other people's histories 🙂

      1. Lukakuna

        Oh God why'd u remind me of the sane one.

        My memory is filled with a lot of other completely useless data. Wish I would have written this down...

        I do remember TC-ing Sanchez for his 24-something point haul a couple of years ago.

    3. King Kohli
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Had it on Salah last year for his hat trick vs Huddersfield.

      Don't really remember about seasons before that.

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

      Even I had it on Sterling in 17/18! Worst experience!

    5. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      So in 4 years the most the chip has gotten you was 11 points. As you would have capt them anyway. Prob the worst chip we have really.

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

      Oh my God - I can see where this progression is going. Who have you captained tonight?

      1. teneighty
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        His last sentence gives us a hint but I'm anxiously awaiting his answer! 😉

      2. FPLHaggis
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Salah TC with Mane TVC! What could go wrong!

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

          Oh dear - that's me stuffed then 😀

      i am still haunted by my duffy tc fail last year.....

  23. Coys96

    4 years, 2 months ago

    WC?

    Have Soyuncu, Rico, Aurier, Lund (may have lost spot), double man utd attack, & vardy

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Tempting but you'll struggle when tej dgw comes . I'd take a hit or 2 to sort team. Vardy should be ok anyway

      1. Coys96
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Taken 4 hits in last last 6 GWs though in separate weeks. In those weeks I have 3/4 red arrows. But yes that's whats I'm saving it for

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I'm in a similar ish situation with a few players I want to ditch but just being patient for now..might save transfer and do a -8 following gw ( haven't taken a hit all season though )

    2. King Kohli
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Strongly considering it myself.
      Have all except Aurier

      1. Coys96
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, it's difficult

    3. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Is aurier not been doing well?

      1. Coys96
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        he's got me 20 pts in 7 games, so no.

        plus fixtures coming up on a defensive aspect are bad

    4. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      i pulled the WC this afternoon. needed to change it up from the template as it was going nowhere fast!

      1. Coys96
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I've dropped from 27k to 49k in 3 weeks, but I'll probably fall to around 70k as haven't used TC this gw

  24. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Hi...I'm at 650k and since gw18 every game week rank has been 2m or above .

    Very tempted to wildcard as last ditch attempt to stop season pettering out. In my situation would you wildcard this lot?

    McCarthy
    Taa soy lunds Rico Kelly
    Salah mane kdb grealish nakamba
    Vardy haller maupay

    I'd prob just keep TAA, Salah and KDB.....thanks

    1. King Kohli
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Yes if you have an idea of who you want to get in.
      What does your WC team look like?

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Not really had a fiddle.

        But I'd have auba ings son robbo egan (instead of lunds)

        Prob jiminez ....Also consider bellerin, Ritchie, Williams, doucoure

        Just to shake it up and try something new til end of season

    2. Lukakuna
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Team doesn’t look that bad! I’d look at your transfer strategy instead and see how you can change that

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        My problem is that I have got rid of players at precisely the wrong time.

        Taa, Pope, alli jimiez all hauled the week I have got rid.

        1. Lukakuna
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Same here. Maybe a less aggressive play style is the way to go?
          Players like Maupay and Grealish have good fixtures this week and could haul

          1. Lukakuna
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            I’d justs do Haller>Ings

            1. Flynny
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Cheers

              Haller has Brighton and ings lpool so I'm keeping haller for the week...

    My season has come down to the next 2 liverpool games.
    To have any hope in ml and or, I need an absolute haul from taa, and for mane to blank.

    1. Flynny
      • 9 Years

    Something that might worry all the new Aubameyang owners: ...

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Can't see arsenal letting him.go though

      1. Lukakuna
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah will probably cling to him until he goes for free

    2. I Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      No way Arsenal let him leave now.

    3. El-Kloppico
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Cant see Arteta letting him leave, unless he got another striker In.

  27. dataisfun
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Fleck or Barnes for a cheap midfielder?

    1. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Fleck

    2. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Fleck. Has better fixtures.

  28. Pukkipartyy
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Sry for long post..

      B has a nice spread

  29. Cruz88

    4 years, 2 months ago

    Serious question, thoughts on Sterling? Any city fans about? Has he been generally unlucky or is something a bit wrong?

    1. Coys96
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      He's completely off it this season.

  30. dataisfun
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    For me, it's a choice between Salah and Aguero. Fixtures point to Salah, so A or C
