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.

    Is Auba going to Barca? It’s the sun so I can’t really trust it. Hopefully not, I want him in my team. If he does go though, hello Martinelli!

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

      You’d assume arsenal wouldn’t let him go

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Apparently it’s just up to Auba to agree to it

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

          Apparently he has said OK

          1. have you seen cyan
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Ah shame if he goes, it would be a great boost for Arsenal if he turned it down to stay. That’s a message of intent for sure

      2. lilmessipran
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        The mid table club might get relegated if they let him go 😉

      3. Now I'm Panicking
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Not sure they'd have much choice if he wants to go - may as well cash in with no Europe next season and rebuild.

    Very tempted to ditch Maddy, Martial or both, but there's no players I actually want to replace them! Also own KDB, Mane, Grealish...

    1. NielsvanDelft
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Maybe downgrade to Fleck and upgrade one of your strikers or defenders?

      1. Cruz88
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I may do this. Though strikers are Vardy, Jimi and Ings. Vardy is the obvious one to replace but Auba and Aguero both have blanks coming up, Auba has the Barca rumours and Aguero is having his minutes managed

    2. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Fleck and Traore?

      1. Cruz88
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I have Jimi so not too concerned about Traore. Fleck is...ok, but hardly exciting. Most weeks he won't return I suspect

    3. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I had a very childish alcohol induced hissy fit and got rid of Maddison.
      Very soberly I have ignored Martial.

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Wrong way round. 😉

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

      Agree, not many midfield option at all

    5. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Go for another city mid

      1. Cruz88
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Can we trust their minutes though?

  3. NielsvanDelft
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Liking this for GW25?
    Hendo
    Lord - TAA - Dunk
    Mane - Mo - KDB - Fleck
    Kun - Ings - DCL

    Cantwell - Kelly - Soy

    1. JJeyy
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Yes but don’t rate fleck, would probably play Cantwell

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

      Got the same team with Rico instead of Dunk... Thinking of playing Cantwell over Fleck though

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

    Harvey Barnes stats look good, may be the Aguero enabler.

    1. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Looked electric last night. Shite fixtures though.

    2. Cant fit my Willian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years

      Considering this as well. His fixtures his only concern for me.

        Your username is brilliant..!
        Just need an appropriate grav to finish it off. 🙂

    3. Amey

      IF Vardy is out, Perez could be good @ 6.1m

  5. goriuanx

    @AnfieldRd96
    Rumours going round that Van Dijk is out tonight with a chest infection. Highly doubt he’ll be rested though seeing as we’ve got the FA Cup this weekend.

    ^Yet to find the source of the rumour so probably BS.

    1. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Knowing my luck it's true. Imagine TC'ing TAA in a game where there's no VVD.. 😆

      1. TheDragon
        • 5 Years

        Imagine TC’ing VVD in a game where there’s no VVD

    2. HurriKane
      • 11 Years

      Keeping close eye on FPL_Suscribe and FPL_Rockstar

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Kop Central will have the team before them. Doesn't matter though, the deadline has passed.

    3. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years

      Second part of that tweet makes no sense

      1. goriuanx

        @ them not me 😉

    4. Rainer

      He can't start being a source 😀

      1. goriuanx

        KopHQ hasn't heard of the rumour so we're good..atm 🙂

  6. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    I’m so excited for my Bobby TC, you still excited for your pick if you used it?
    Although just chatting to my die hard pool mate he reckons it’s likely Bobby won’t start both :/

    1. The Wanton Trader
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Nice to see a fellow Firmino tripler.
      At least I won’t be alone in here watching all those points mount up.
      C’mon Bobby...!! 🙂

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yea man GL, Bobby never graced my team but his away form, his low ownership. TRiple captaining Mane or Salah with everyone else is just not me, I’ll always take the under dog. Prefer to take risks then just do the same as everyone else

        1. The Wanton Trader
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Sounds like we are carved from the same wood.

      Can the die hard pool mate sort me tickets for tonight?

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

        How much the ticket cost in general ?
        Just out of curiosity ....

        1. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Away tickets are capped at 30 but people don't sell at that price

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

            Cool. Must be amazing experience every time you watch a live PL game 😮

          I know things are bad at Utd mate, but you can't just switch allegiances... 😉

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

            Ha ha
            Won't do that ever. I'm from India, never been to a PL game. So as i said, just out of curiosity 😉

      2. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I’m literally surrounded by pool fans today, funnily enough if it was a home game coulda used someone’s season ticket

        1. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I'm sorted for home games, away ones are tough. Going West Ham next week (although I had to swap it for a good home game!)

          1. have you seen cyan
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            At least it’ll be a goal fest lol and nice way to see your TC result 🙂

          2. Mo Salah No Mane
            • 7 Years

            Wow
            You are super lucky to go to so many games
            Enjoy for my part as well
            Ultimate dream is to watch Liverpool at Anfield

    3. Holmes
      • 10 Years

    4. The Wanton Trader
      • 6 Years

      Don’t listen to your mate.
      Sounds like he knows nothing... 😉

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Well my other pool mate who always seems to have inside info also went Bobby so that reassured me a bit.

        1. The Wanton Trader
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          He sounds like a better friend than the other bloke... 😆

    5. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      He is winding you up he will definitely start v Wolves anyway you’d imagine! Yeah I TC on Manè but we need him to do badly in the community pundits playoff tournie so I’m torn...

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

    I think I'm going to do well with TC chip this season with Mane than the last season (Sane 😀 )

    Anything over 1 point is improvement ...

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

      Same here but Salah for me! Sane was a killer last yr!

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

        Yep.
        Nearly 100+ points swing over 2/3 GW's for me.

    2. CONNERS
      • 5 Years

      You're tempting fate by saying that.

        I'm ready for punishment 😛

  8. Rains of Castamere
    • 9 Years

    Twitter rumours (I reiterate, just rumours) that both VVD and Mane (my TC) are out tonight.

    I think I'd actually cry.

    Are we seriously going to have 3 full hours of people posting the same crap about VVD/Mane MAYBE being out from some Twitter rumour?

    Jesus.

    1. FPL price manipulators are …

    ^Tends to say 'predicted team' but gets the team a fair bit. I'd say he's more likely to be right than wrong - although I'd rather bank on what TheKopHQ / Kop_Central say. It'd suck if the DGW went wrong this quick so let's see. Peace out! 😉

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years

      Mane blank woukd be lovely imo

  11. andres
    • 12 Years

    Auba or Kun?

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years

      Kun

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

      Auba to Barca?

  12. quayle99
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Best 5.0 or less defender?
    Im looking at

    Aurier
    Dunk
    Taro

    Other?

    1. quayle99
      • 7 Years

      I have soy lund and stephens as well already

  13. FPL Blow-In
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    A lot of people looking at switching Vardy to Auba now I’m assuming. Would be harsh on Martinelli to be dropped immediately. Is there a way Arteta plays Laca, Auba and Martinelli?

    1. Greek Freak
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      However, it wouldn't be harsh on Lacazette to be dropped immediately the way he's been playing. There's no way Aubameyang gets benched for Martinelli.

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah I know Auba won’t be dropped I’m just wondering will Martinelli be or Laca or will Arteta find a system to play the 3 of them

    2. quayle99
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I can Laca and Martinelli rotate the bench next game

  14. Ze_Austin
    • 5 Years

    I remember saying on here that the top 10 keepers were so close in points that it supports the set-and-forget strategy

    Just checked today and saw Pope had gone from 10th to 2nd in just two game weeks, ffs

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

      And just 2weeks after I transfered him out.

      1. LosBlancos
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        This season is lost anyway, I will just stick to one keeper next season bar WCs

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

          Same plan. I will keep Ryan until wc hope Ryan will keep balls out of the net

      2. Fred54
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Same.

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

          To be fair Pope and Burnley didn't look very good at then so it didn't look too bad decision then.

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

      I sold him for a hit 2GWs ago 😎

      1. Greek Freak
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        It's annoying that I sold him because I had 2FTs saved - if I had been greedier with my transfers there's no way I would've used a hit on a keeper and I would've been far better off!

      I’m torn, set n forget results in some garbage periods even for good keepers. But then whenever I try rotation I get it wrong more often then not. Last two weeks rotating Henderson and foster backfired, picked the wrong one both times. But the pen save vs City was just bad luck for me tbh.
      I need to have a look later and see over the five weeks I rotated whether I actually got positive points from over playing hendo every week.
      For the rest of the season Hendo will start most but getting McCarthy to cover any blanks and some tricky games possibly.

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

        Got Hendo and McC ... just seen gw31 is when Hendo can't play, McC's nice run of fixtures ends in gw31, of course 🙁

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

      That's amazing for owners tbh. He's been bad for weeks. I've watched Guita scoring 8 + points for 4/5 GW's in a row 😀

    5. Make Arrows Green Again
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Reckon McCarthy will at least keep pace with Pope for less, especially for the next couple of months (he will probably outscore him). So there is still time to get a cheap route into that excellent defence and upgrade elsewhere.

    Lundstram or Fernandez?

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

      From now i prefer Baldock or Stephens

  16. 03farmboy
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Which three Liverpool players is the best option?

    TAA, Gomez, Mane

    Or

    TAA, Salah, Mane

    Double defence or double midfield

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

      B

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      B

  17. linkafu
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Perfection will be: LIV 5 - 1 Wolves and Liv 4 - 0 West Ham

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

      No Liv 4 - 1 Wet ham with a creswell goal or assist

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

        Prefect is a goal let in on both matches - Firmino (C) and only one defender

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

          Agree, I don't have any pool defenders

          1. John Nerdelbaum
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            In that case don't you want Pool to concede in both games?

    2. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Nope I disagree (of course) perfection would be Wolves 4 Liverpool 0 😀

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

    Rumors that Mane is benched and Minamino will start. Liverpool echo

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

      Hopefully you read that article

    2. linkafu
      • 4 Years

      Minamino will have 2 tonight

        4 years, 2 months ago

        How's my team looking, I was one of the rash decision makers swapping out Vardy last night, would appreciate peoples input:

        Ryan
        TAA, Holgate, Sidibe, Lascelles
        Salah, Mane, KDB, Fleck
        DCL, Aguero

        (Foster, Greenwood, Doucoure, Baldock)........£1.0m in bank.

              Downgrading Doucoure could get you funds to upgrade DCL when fixtures turn bad ... that could be Ings for a nice run

        It’s amazing how one good game week changes how you view your team. Had a horrid Christmas period, lost a lot of rank and was getting worried. Had a slow start to the week but Alli got me to 32 last night thank god, it’s not an amazing score but I feel so much better now to actually have a decent score at the moment. Team doesn’t look so bad now, things look clearer.
        It’s like positive reinforcement of your opinions/ gut boost your confidence so much.

        So anyone worried about their team and considering wildcarding, well I was thinking that a week ago but now I see some small changes is all it needs.

        That Liverpool echo article says “this is how we think Liverpool should line up”... there isn’t any news or anything it’s just someone’s opinion, I wouldn’t give it any weight

          Why would they choose to line up with a different team to how they should?

          I can’t actually remember my triple captains at all so they can’t have been particularly great. Probably kun most times and then Kane trolling me no doubt

          GW37 will be, maybe GW34 and possibly one or two others if EFL final postponements aren't played in GW28.

        how reliable is Liverpool echo?

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

          100% obviously - they echo what Liverpool say

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

            Real answer: 0% it’s pure speculation

        2. Niho992

          they' re not reliable.
