Kane and Son set to start as post-FPL deadline injury news begins to emerge

Six Premier League managers held their pre-Gameweek 30+ press conferences on Thursday, with some key quotes and injury updates emerging from the various conference calls.

It’s too late for Fantasy Premier League managers to do anything about this fresh information, of course, but those playing the Sky game can still tinker with their sides ahead of Friday’s action.

We’ll round up the main headlines from today’s virtual media gatherings in the article below.

Tottenham Hotspur

Jose Mourinho confirmed that Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Moussa Sissoko will all start against Manchester United on Friday, with that trio and Steven Bergwijn having all recovered from injuries during the lockdown period.

Speaking to the media, Mourinho said:

Kane, Son and Sissoko, they recover and they are ready to play.

I can tell you, no problem, [Kane] is going to start the game. Does Harry have 90 minutes, 80, 70, 60 [in him]? I don’t know. I think only the game will tell us that.

The three players who had surgery – Sissoko, Son and Kane – yes, they are going to start.

The Spurs boss added that he was unsure if Giovani Lo Celso will be able to start tomorrow’s match after some fitness issues but is hopeful that he can feature in some capacity.

Japhet Tanganga (back) and Dele Alli (suspended) miss out.

Manchester United

Rashford plays down injury worries after latest FPL double-digit haul

United will be down two back-up centre-halves in north London on Friday but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer otherwise reported a clean bill of health, saying:

We have two players, Phil Jones and Axel [Tuanzebe] will miss this game and the start. Let’s see how bad they are. Apart from that the rest of the squad is fit and available.

On the fit-again Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford, Solskjaer added:

If selected, Marcus and Paul… they’ve been out for a long, long period but they are available. How long they’re going to play for, let’s see.

Norwich City

Why there is still more to come from Lundstram despite latest blank

Norwich City were handed a triple injury blow on Thursday as Daniel Farke revealed that Grant Hanley (hamstring), Sam Byram (hamstring) and Christoph Zimmermann (back) will miss the rest of the season.

Marco Stiepermann has returned to training having self-isolated following a positive coronavirus test but won’t be considered for the visit of Southampton.

Burnley

Ashley Barnes (hernia), Chris Wood (Achilles) and Johann Berg Gudmundsson (calf) will all miss the trip to Manchester City on Monday.

That trio may be sidelined for a little while longer, too, with Sean Dyche saying:

They definitely won’t make this early period of these games.

We’re really working hard with them and you’re going into the world of keeping your fingers crossed when you’ve got so many games in such a short space of time.

You only have to miss a couple of weeks and you could miss five or six games.

Watford

Watford have three definite absentees ahead of the visit of Leicester City, with Nigel Pearson telling reporters:

Isaac Success has ruptured his Achilles. Deulofeu won’t be available this season, he’s got a serious knee injury with his cruciate. Janmaat won’t be available this season either. But everybody else more or less is available.

Pearson confirmed that Troy Deeney was available for selection following his belated return to full-contact training.

Leicester City

Ayoze Perez and Ryan Bennett were both passed fit on Thursday, although Brendan Rodgers did reveal that Dennis Praet (calf) was a concern ahead of the trip to Watford.

Rodgers said:

Both those players [Perez and Bennett] have been back in training this week, so they’ll be available. Dennis Praet is a doubt, but we’ll see tomorrow if he’s going to make the squad or not. If he doesn’t then he should be fine for Tuesday.

The rest

We’ll hear from Jurgen Klopp on Friday ahead of the Merseyside derby but the Liverpool boss has already been speaking to the Reds’ own website and sounded fairly positive when asked about his side’s injury situation, saying:

In the moment, nobody really is ruled out for Sunday, but we have to see. A few trained more, a few trained less, most trained all [sessions], so that’s good news and in the end we will have a good team on the pitch, 100%.

Four teams have already been in Gameweek 30+ action, of course, and there were plenty of injury updates to report from the respective managers’ post-match interviews.

John Fleck (knock) and John O’Connell (knee) missed out on Sheffield United’s goalless draw with Aston Villa but the Blades may have one of those players back on Sunday, with Chris Wilder saying:

Fleck, we’ve got great reports that he trained nearly full tilt so he’ll train tomorrow [Thursday] and he’ll be available for Sunday. Fingers crossed he comes through a clearance session.

Jack [O’Connell], we’ve got a decision to make. We’ve got a specialist report on it but we’re hopeful that it’ll be short-term. He isn’t out for the season just yet, we’ll look at it, but if he is, then we’ll adjust and adapt.

Dean Smith said of Villa’s absentees, meanwhile:

Bjorn Engels has an Achilles issue. He’s not going to be around for the next week or two at least. Frederic Guilbert’s the same, he’s injured. Danny Drinkwater should be back training at the end of the week. He picked up an injury against Leicester last week.

Pablo Mari (ankle/calf) and Granit Xhaka (ankle) were forced off early in Arsenal’s defeat at Manchester City, with Mikel Arteta saying afterwards:

They are getting assessed at the moment then we will know something more tomorrow morning. Pablo’s one didn’t look very good to be fair.

The Athletic’s David Ornstein reported bad news on Thursday evening, tweeting:

City announced on Thursday afternoon that Eric Garcia has been released from hospital after suffering an injury during the win over the Gunners.

The defender will be monitored in the coming days, ahead of a return to training and competitive action.

Pep Guardiola hinted at changes against Burnley on Monday in his post-match interview.

      Cant wait....... more coffee.

  5. Don Kloppeone
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Torn between these two options on WC! Help me out wise ppl:

    A) Saiss, Lascelles, DCL
    B) Doherty, Fernandez, Nketiah

    Pope, Martin
    TAA, XXXX, Maguire, XXXX, Robinson
    Salah, KDB, Son, Bruno, Cantwell
    Rash, Jimi, XXXX

    Cheers

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Doherty better than Sais but not sure it’s 1.5m+ worth.

      Fernandez will outscore Lascelles.

      DCL better then Nketiah albeit the latter is still a nice option.

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        So you see my dilemma!

        Nketiah seems to be in Arteta’s good books so even he looks a decent value bench pick but I usually prefer flexibility of a stronger 3rd striker.

        V tough

    2. UnitedFan
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      B I think.

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        It’s v tough. I like both!

        DCL was such great value before the break. If he replicates that form then it’s prob worth sticking with him.

        But Doherty is difficult to resist!!

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

      a

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        That’s what I’m on atm but the call of Doherty is strong and a bench of Nketiah, Fernandez, Cantwell/ Maguire doesn’t look bad at all!

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

          Doherty will be rotated and Nketiahs minutes will be limited - that would be my thinking anyway

          1. Don Kloppeone
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Arteta was very complimentary about Nketiah. Can’t find link but it was a couple of pages back.

            Agree re Doherty but you could say same of Saiss given managers have 5 subs. It’s just that creativity and points ceiling!

  6. Crystal Alice

    TC holders, what fixtures are you eyeing up?

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      There is none left here. Why would anyone have that chip left?!?

    2. noquarternt
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      You’ve missed the last one, KDB or Sterling this week

    3. maglia rosa
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Liverpool, City and Utd have good enough fixtures for a TC I reckon....esp if you look at away games.

  11. Firminooooo

    Who to bring in on WC: Vardy or Rashford?

    1. JJeyy
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      rashford for fixtures

    2. Don Kloppeone
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Unless Vardy shows a return to some kind of form then he’s not worth a look in for me. Has to be Rash.

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      What about Martial cheaper and OOP albeit change of team formation

  12. Reg83
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    serious Q- is nyland now first choice for Villa?

    I still have BB & play it in gw34 so nyland now first choice?

    1. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      He was.

      Wandering around in the net with the ball under his arm might not help keep him that way.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        He did save it first though...

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      A lot of time before gw34. If he makes too many mistakes, he will ve dropped. If he plays well, he will start. As simple as that imo 😉

    3. rjcv177
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      After last game, i think he's...hanging in there

      1. Pep Roulette
        • 6 Years

        Hahahaha

  13. pundit of punts
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    GW 31+ FH team

    Pope
    AWB - Maguire - Taylor
    Mane - KDB - Son - Bruno - Richarlison
    Vardy - Jiminez

    Thoughts? 🙂

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Double BUR def v WAT on FH? Taylor > NEW def, the rest is great

    2. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Where's TAA?

  14. Smokey_Lowkey
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Sterling + Grealish - > Son + Fernandes

    For a - 4? (no WC)

    Or just Sterling - > Son/Fernandes (if so, which?)

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Y

    2. FPL_DON

      first

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Just one no hit for me Son and do the other the following week, unless United really show off this weekend and you are confident they will pass through SHU

      1. FPL Pillars
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Shef have no Hendo that game to save them 🙂

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          I know I’ve got Martial Bruno myself

    4. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Sterling to Son only. Grealish fixture next GW isn't too bad and Fernandes' fixture isn't great so that could wait a week.

  15. ryacoo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    A) Saiss permaplay
    B) Taylor/Cathcart rotation

  16. how now brown cow
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    This is weird - back to back wildcard.

    Feels too extravagant.

    1. BigBarn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Like you've just had time for a lie-in and a proper think about Christina Hendricks and the Mrs comes back from the shops with croissant and a smile?

  17. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Any changes you would make for week 31+ ( assuming no injuries) or carry transfer? Even bench boost?

    A Carry transfer and play team as is
    B Lundstram (mun) to Justin (BRI) And BB
    C BB with no changes

    Pope
    TAA Maguire Doherty
    Salah (c) KDB Bruno Barnes
    Jiménez Jota DCL

    Leno Fernández Cantwell Lundstram

    1. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      B could be worth a try if he looks good.

      1. how now brown cow
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        If you can afford him aurier could be a fun pick.

        1. dunas_dog
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Good suggestion- will watch him tomorrow

    2. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      seems like a great week to bench boost assuming everyone looks good. As you know similar boat and want to get another big hitter attacker. How much you got in the bank if you get Justin?

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        3.4 m ! Ideally I want Son and could take -4 for Cantwell to Son and move to 3-5-2 with DCL to Nketiah. But then stuck with Lundstram unless take -8, or hope does well v United away. Quite a lot of thinking to be done but do feel perfect week to BB. Any suggestions welcome...

        1. Rinseboy
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          yeah lot of tinkering. Think I need to see a few games first as there could be a decent 7-8m mid that looks good for Cantwell. Vardy could look good too and Rashford.

          Like the Nketiah and Son moves but the -8 is what I'm not sure on esp as DCL has Norwich

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Very nice, B makes sense

    FH this:
    Henderson

    Martin Kelly Simpson Connolly

    To

    Pope
    Aurier Lascelles Saiss

      Doesn't actually matter imo. Yet, since you are forced to do it anyway, what are you planning to gain by waiting?

      1. Oggle22
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        More time to think who to bring in and check on injuries/minutes/form in the upcoming matche's or can I keep making transfers with FH active till the end of the next game week deadline?

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Kane could disappoint on easy game at home 😉

  19. Rinseboy

    Best defender up to 5.7 to go with these boys
    TAA Maguire Doherty Fernandez

    1. maglia rosa
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Gomez?

    2. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Digne Or Mendy could be a bit of fun

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I tjought about Digne funnily enough! interesting to see how he does

        1. FPL Pillars
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Would be a very nice differential!

    3. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Too much money in defence!

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        already got it not a wildcard! Want to possibly BB this week so looking to replace Lunds!

      Not tempted by Jota over DCL for the triple up?

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        That's the alternative with Salah for Mane

      First, I applaud the number of 3 letter acronym players you have.

      Starting XI looks grand. Bench obv weak.

      If I could afford it my team would look like this.

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Presume you wouldn't want Maguire then instead of AWB?

    3. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Also, I'd be tempted to do Hayden Simpson to McCarthy Robinson.

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Thanks, made the changes

    4. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      That’s my exact WC draft apart from I’ve got Maguire and you’ve got AWB 😆
      My bench is similar too, weird.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Template. Or templatish with Hayden from the old template.

      2. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Thinking for doing Maguire, Great minds. Like the McCarthy, Robinson bench idea from Ryacoo above.

        Not tempted by Salah or Jota combination?

        1. FPL Pillars
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Jota is a wait and see how he plays vs wham, still early days

    5. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Oh and I have Salah instead of Mane

      1. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Flipping between Salah and Mane. What are the reasons you chose Salah?

        1. FPL Pillars
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Pens and higher ownership.
          I’ve always been a Salah guy when picking between the two.

          1. The Polymath
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Same here, can't see myself ever captaining Mane either.

  21. Ronny Sandstone
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    If I can't decide between FH and WC this week? can I mak multiple transfers/hits now and select either chip before the deadline and it'll revert back with no hits?

    Not played the official game for a few years, too much info to digest with these chips!

    1. FPL Alaska
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      My understanding is yes.

      1. Ronny Sandstone
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        What I wanted to hear!
        Thanks

    2. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Or, just don’t confirm transfers

  22. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    My squad value is £99.6m.

    Does anyone have worse?

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Only those who like shooting themselves to their feet (or how is this being said). Better luck next year!

      Damn. What have you been doing?

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Being patient ... isn't that what all the best FPL managers preach as the golden rule to success?

      2. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Pope - (Button)
        TAA - Doherty - Lascelles - (Robinson) - (3.9)
        KDB - Son - Martial - Traore - (Cantwell)
        Abraham - Rashford - Jimenez

        Does that work?

        1. FPL Virgin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Thanks Dude. Impressive maths!

  23. Fernandito

    A De Gea TAA Jota
    B Pope VVD Jimenez

    XXX
    Justin Saiss XXX
    Bruno Mane Salah Barnes Son
    Rashford XXX

    Thoughts guys?

    1. Spacemonkey
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I would take A.

    2. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Tough. But A.

  24. Pep Roulette
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Leno
    TAA Saiss Lascelles
    Sterling KDB Mount Barnes El Ghazi
    Kun Auba

    Nyland Stevens Egan Nketiah

    A. Sterling & Kun to Salah & Jiminez (-4) (El Ghazi to Martial in GW32)

    B. Kun & El Ghazi to Jiminez & Bruno (-4)

    C. Sterling Kun & El Ghazi to Jiminez Martial & Salah (-8)

    1. The Train Driver
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Leno will rack up those save points but don't see him keeping many cs tbh...

    2. Fernandito
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Prefer A

  25. YEAH PITCH!
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    If I do a hit for - 8 now, and then play my free hit or wildcard tomorrow, do they both erase the hit?

    1. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Yes

    2. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I asked the same question earlier, people said that you don’t lose points

      1. YEAH PITCH!
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Thank you both

        1. Kloppcorn
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Anytime pal

  26. FPL Diet
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    RMT please - on Wildcard

    Ederson
    TAA Boly Saiss
    Fernandes Martial Son Alli
    Rashford Kane Jiménez

    Nyland, Duda, Lascelles, Holgate

    Happy to go without KDB for 2 weeks, can bring back after the Liverpool game, will potentially downgrade TAA after Palace to fund it, Watford have decent enough fixtures from 32+ onwards for a cheap defender...

    Thoughts? All advice is gratefully received

    1. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Personally I wouldn’t want to drop De Bruyne or trent can both perform against any team

    2. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      No KDB is very risky

    3. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Also triple spurs and united attack if either team have an off day could be looking at 3 blanking

    4. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Makes sense - cheers both

  27. Kloppcorn
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Who do ppl think will be the higher point score:
    A:Kane
    B:Son

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Kane’s got pens but I feel Son is the bigger attacking threat from what we saw before the lockdown. Both options for sure

    2. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      B

    3. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Thinking Kane as a differential
      Choosing between:
      A: Kane and Barnes/Mount
      B: DCL and son

    4. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Son.

  28. onceuponatyne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Currently on:

    Hendo (Pope)
    TAA/Robbo/Saiss/Lundy (Lascelles)
    KDB/Fernandes/Son/Salah (Traore)
    Rash (Martinelli) (Nketiah)

    Might swap Robbo for a diff Liv defender and upgrade Martinelli? Thoughts?

    I am aiming for players on my bench who will get some minutes, as I personally think that's critical.

  29. FPL_DON
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Guendozi seems a solid enabler on a wildcard, any other takers?

    1. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Good option for that price but I prefer Keinan Davis. Only 0.1 and plays OOP as striker.

      1. Klaren
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Only 0.1 more expensive*

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

          Yeah he's a good shout, i'm waiting to see if he starts against chelsea

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Saka and Nketiah say Hello.

      1. FPL Pillars
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Saka is 0.5 more 🙂

    3. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Aye I’ve got him, at the moment. 4.2 is a nice enabler to pour funds into the XI.

      He’ll be rooted to the bench of course. Hopefully have two players defenders also on bench. If you’ve only one it could get a bit hairy.

    If I play my FH can I tinker with my team till the next deadline? And chances of Kane playing Friday and Tuesday

    Cheers
