Son scores big haul despite missing penalty at Villa

Aston Villa 2-3 Spurs

  • Goals: Bjorn Engels (£4.4m) | Toby Alderweireld (£5.3m), Son Heung-min x2 (£10.0m)
  • Own Goals: Alderweireld
  • Assists: Anwar El Ghazi (£5.5m), Jack Grealish (£6.7m) | Eric Dier (£4.8m), Davinson Sánchez (£5.3m)
  • Penalty saves: Pepe Reina (£4.5m)
  • Penalty misses: Son
  • Bonus Points: Son x3, Reina x2, Grealish x1

Son Heung-min (£10.0m) stepped up the case for his inclusion in Fantasy Premier League squads on Sunday afternoon as he scored 13 points in a 3-2 win at Aston Villa.

The South Korean has been a much-discussed alternative to Kevin De Bruyne (£10.8m) when Manchester City’s fixture schedule turns for the worse and, on current form, he could be a great option to turn to.

Between Gameweeks 27 and 32, Pep Guardiola’s men have at least one Blank Gameweek and face Leicester (away), Manchester United (away), Burnley (home), Chelsea (away) and Liverpool (home). Meanwhile, Son, who now has four attacking returns in as many matches, averaging 7.8 points per game in that time, has a slightly kinder run of Wolves (home), Burnley (away), Manchester United (home), West Ham (home) and Sheffield United (away).

Crucially, Son’s performance against Aston Villa showed his serious potential as a centre-forward since Steven Bergwijn (£7.5m) joined Spurs in the January transfer window. As expected, the South Korean was handed the centre-forward role again, with Bergwijn and Lucas Moura (£7.1m) supporting him either side. Helped also by Dele Alli (£8.4m) in the number 10 role, Son racked up a handful of chances at Villa Park and arguably should have scored more points than he did.

Pepe Reina (£4.5m) denied several fierce efforts on goal from Son, especially in the second 45 minutes, when Spurs were pushing on to find a winner. The Aston Villa goalkeeper, who made seven saves on Sunday afternoon, also reduced Son’s score by saving his poor penalty on the stroke of half-time, that was bundled in by the Spurs man nonetheless.

Son was also let down by some profligate finishing from Alli in the opening period. He played the England international through on goal in the 34th minute, who hooked it wide when he really should have scored.

However, we may have to temper the enthusiasm surrounding Son in light of Aston Villa’s ongoing defensive problems. Dean Smith’s men came into Gameweek 26 still bottom of the league for shots conceded in the box and, despite besting Spurs for possession on Sunday (53.7% to 46.3%), they still allowed the visitors to dominate the shot count (23 to 18).

Villa were, of course, not helped in their efforts by the untimely absence of Tyrone Mings (£4.5m), the former Bournemouth man missing Gameweek 26 after falling ill with tonsillitis on Saturday. It is not known when he will return but, if he is not back for the trip to Southampton in Gameweek 27, Danny Ings (£7.0m) owners will surely be licking their lips.

“It’s a blow because (Mings) is a big player for us and he has been all season. He’s adapted really well to the Premier League. But he was ill yesterday so we knew he’d be missing. I’ve got Bjorn Engels who’s recently been called up to the Belgium squad so we’ve got strength in depth in that area.” – Dean Smith

Mings replacement on the day in Bjorn Engels (£4.4m) had a mixed afternoon but was ultimately to blame for both of Son’s goals, Danny Drinkwater (£4.4m) also turning in a poor performance. While Villa, and Engels himself, did a good job of throwing bodies in the way to block Spurs’ efforts in the first half, it was Engels’ poorly timed challenge on Bergwijn that led to the penalty, awarded after a rare controversy-free Video Assistant Referee (VAR) review.

Then, after scoring his first-ever Villa goal to make up for the first-half error and draw his side level, Engels handed the game to Spurs on a plate in second-half stoppage time. Davinson Sánchez (£5.3m) played a speculative ball over the top to Son, which should have been easy to clear, but Engels swung a tired boot at the pass, not getting enough purchase on it. That allowed the ball to run underneath the centre-back, straight to Son, who bore down on Reina and tucked the winner away.

“Listen, (Engels) is okay. He’s very disappointed because of the mistake of trying to bring the ball down as opposed to getting rid of it. If he puts it straight back it finishes 2-2. A big error, but they happen in games. He’ll get over it, that’s for sure.” – Dean Smith

Another defeat for Aston Villa should not put Fantasy managers off their attacking assets though, especially Jack Grealish (£6.7m). Smith’s men arguably deserved more from the game than they got as, for large spells, they dominated possession and asked questions of Spurs’ defence.

They found particular joy in the wide areas as Grealish asked questions of Serge Aurier (£5.0m), especially early on, picking up three fouls during the opening exchanges. In the 18th minute, Grealish stormed down the left flank and squared to Douglas Luiz (£4.4m), who should have scored and earned his captain an assist, but Ben Davies (£5.3m) flew in with an impressive block on his first outing since November.

Grealish, who pulled the strings all afternoon for Villa, eventually got a deserved assist in the 52nd minute when Engels headed home his corner. A six-point haul will certainly be enough to satisfy his 25.1% ownership and etch some regret onto the hearts of the 121,572 managers who sold him for Gameweek 26. However, those still in possession of Villa’s talismanic skipper still have to decide his role in their team over the next few weeks as, after the Southampton game, Grealish has a Blank Gameweek and faces Leicester (away) and Chelsea (home).

Also showing some consistency at home recently is Anwar El Ghazi (£5.5m), who now has two attacking returns in his last three at Villa Park. The Dutchman enjoyed plenty of space behind the returning Davies on the right flank of Villa’s attack and got the assist for Toby Alderweireld‘s (£5.3m) own goal, as Spurs’ left-back did not significantly alter the destination of the cross with his deflection. El Ghazi also went close to scoring himself, unleashing a piledriving effort in the first-half, stinging the palms of Hugo Lloris (£5.3m) in the process.

“We looked on the front foot today. Certainly, we didn’t deserve to lose.” – Dean Smith

Aston Villa XI: Reina; Hause, Engels, Konsa; Targett, D Luiz, Drinkwater (Nakamba 59′), Guilbert; Grealish, Samatta (Baston 82′), El Ghazi (Trézéguet 69′).

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris; B Davies, D Sánchez, Alderweireld, Aurier; Dier (Lo Celso 59′), Winks; Bergwijn (Vertonghen 90+5′), Alli (G Fernandes 82′), Moura; Son.

        Did Pepe play the first half? Son is a much safer bet.

  5. joelsprylar

    Auba and Martial out for Jimenez and Son+ 0,9 mil seems good?

    1. YuvalFPL
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      why sell auba now?

      1. joelsprylar
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Because of his blank GW28 and he play as a winger.
        But main reason is to finance Son.

        1. YuvalFPL
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          look at his fixtures after the blank

        2. squits
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Yep I'm selling for this reason too. Jimenez for me

          1. YuvalFPL
            • 13 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            jimenez and auba look the safest bets for goals to me. then it’s between vardy and ings which is a tough choice.

      2. squits
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Coz he will play wide next match. Was so wide when laca came on and laca should start next game after that

        1. YuvalFPL
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          playing out wide doesn’t hinder his returns, he always gets the big chances

          1. squits
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Wildcard after 29 to bring him back for doubles. Jimenez has such good fixtures next 3

            1. YuvalFPL
              • 13 Years

              yeah i’ve had jimenez since gameweek 12 and he’s not leaving any time soon.

      Hendo Stevens KDB Grealish & Auba all blank in GW28 & you've 3 FTs before that so I'd prioritise replacing one or two of these you don't want going forward.
      You could get a 2nd playing keeper - Patricio / Pope?
      KDB to Son?
      Greallish to Barnes ? (in GW28)
      Apart from that a v good team for GW27

      Same boat. Similar options so finding it hard to advise. B or C look the most explosive moves with 28 in mind

      Poor returns when Spurs are expected to attack and Aurier is left exposed to a tricky left-sided midfielder? (e.g. Grealish, Cantwell, Redmond)

      keep for GW27/28 as will need other transfers to get 11 out for GW28

      potentially get rid after and certainly by 31
      seems to have run out of steam

      1. Lemongrab

      1. Lemongrab

        For me it comes down to who scores more
        Auba - EVE - blank - WHM
        Vardy - MCI - nor - AVL

        1. The 12th Man

        Somehow I've had him since GW19 and I still haven't kicked him out of my team. Combination of other fires to put out and 'but he has such a great fixture next'!

  20. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I’m not so sure Wolves will score as many v Norwich as most might think, but not having Jimenez given the amount that are getting him in could really hurt

    1. Greek Freak
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Wolves never really score a lot, do they? They just tick over nicely for the most part. Not owning Jimenez is more like death by a million paper cuts as opposed to something quick and devastating.

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Yes. Interested to k ow how many double digit hauls hes had over the last 2 seasons

        Getting more than 1 attacking return in a game is extremely rare for jimmy

    2. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      More a long term move than just looking at the Norwich game. Plays in 31 too.

        yep I’m definitely getting him, just not expecting a haul v Norwich... hope he surprises me

        1. Nightcrawler
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Yup same here

          Deeney > Jimenez for me this week seems a no brainer for me.
          Jimmy usually just ticks along anyway.

          1. FCSB
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Nice move

    3. tucaoneo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Indeed. Norwich conceded 3 in the last four including vs Spurs and Pool.

    4. diesel001

      Wait to see how they do in the EL. Adama is important for Jimenez, but he has a dodgy shoulder after dislocations. Espanyol will target Adama.

        • 8 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Yes big week of European football, a lot could happen to force our hand into making other transfers

  21. tucaoneo
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    1. KDB > Son. Sell Auba next week.
    2. Auba > Ings. Sell KDB next week.
    Other attackers:
    Salah Mane Grealish Cantwell
    Jimenez DCL

    1. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Probably 2, you'll want Ings against Villa.

    2. FCSB
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      2

  22. Eleven Hag
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Is it time to sell Grealish with his and tough fixtures afterwrds??

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

      Not an owners but I'd keep for 27 at least.

      1. Eleven Hag
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Starting traore ahead of him...wud u rather start Grealish?

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

          Depends on Europe. If benching, may as well sell.
          Which attacker do you bench if you sell Grealish in 27?

    2. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      his blank *

    3. Nightcrawler
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Sell after nxt week

    4. tucaoneo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yes if you don't have more expensive blankers.

    5. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Keeping for Southampton. Might bench him in 28 then decide whether to keep from 29.

  23. The Senate
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    My problem players:
    Ramsdale, Kelly, Zaha, Vardy, possibly DCL,
    Alli looked lively but can’t seem to find the net?
    So:
    (A) DCL to Jimenez
    (B) Zaha to LADama
    (C) Alli to Maddison/Lei mid
    (D) two of the above for a hit?

    1FT 2ITB
    Ramsdale/4.0
    TAA Gomez Stephens
    Salah KDB Alli Zaha
    Vardy Ings DCL
    (Chalobah Rico Kelly)

    1. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      DCL isn’t a problem although DCL > Jimenez is an option.

      Zaha > Traore I like.

    2. Chucky
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I would do B this week and A next GW.

    3. The Senate
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers guys - gonna wait and see what happens in European games before moving ofc

    4. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Is that 2.0 ITB or only 0.2? If it's 2.0 then Alli to Son.

      Otherwise B.

  24. Chucky
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Bench one for next GW.Currently maddy is on bench.

    A) Maddy
    B) Grealy
    C) DCL

    1. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. The Senate
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      A

  25. FPL Theorist
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Any reason not to do Auba + Fleck -> DCL + Son now (exact cash)? Will be priced out when Son rises.

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I like those moves but it could burn you this GW with the fixtures Auba and Fleck have this GW

      1. FPL Theorist
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        The problem is, I have 6 MCI/SHU/ARS players and need to sell 3 of them before the BGW. And my 2 SHU defenders are looking better than Fleck.

    2. Chucky
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Next week.You can get someone else in place of DCL if you get priced out

      1. FPL Theorist
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Like who? All the other options in that price range seem much worse.

        1. Pedersen
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Martinelli from arsenal?

          1. FPL Theorist
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Thanks, but he didn't even play today. And he blanks in GW28 anyway. Minimum requirement is playing in GW28.

  26. Brosstan

    Vardy non owners were right all along. Unsustainable stats. Mark redeemed

  27. arkom
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    McCarthy
    Soy / TAA / VVD / Rico / Aurier
    Grealish / Salah / KDB / Son / Cantwell
    Vardy / Ings / DCL

    1 FT (0,1£ ITB)

    A) KDB & DCL --> Traore & Jimenez (-4)
    B) Aurier --> Egan
    C) Vardy --> Jimenez
    D) Save FT
    E) Other?

    1. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      C

  28. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Could be massive kneejerking, but would you punt on Pepe if you were on a WildCard?

    The fixtures are there for Arsenal.

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      😉

    2. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Might consider Grealish > Pepe in 29

  29. Jet5605
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Is Ndidi close to returning for Leicester? Are Vardy owners holding for the nice run after City? His form seems to be a concern. I would probably get rid if I didn't have other priorities i.e. Mane and Son.

  30. Boomerang V
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Henderson - McCarthy
    TAA - VVD - Stephens - Lascelles - Taylor
    Salah - Kdb - Grealish - Fleck - Hayden
    Aguero - Auba - Jimenez

    0 itb - 2 FT

    I have the exact cash to do:

    Fleck, Aguero -> Son and Ings

    I would have to get Ings tonight before the rise
    Is it a good move? I like Aguero but fear rotation
