Fantasy Premier League managers need to start making a plan for their Tottenham Hotspur assets as their incoming fixture-swing approaches.

Leading the way with their 71 points each, Harry Kane (£11.0m) and Son Heung-min (£9.6m) have been the catalysts for success during the first seven Gameweeks but that may not be true for much longer. 

Many of us will be relying on Jose Mourinho’s men yet again this weekend as they travel to face an out-of-form West Bromwich Albion side – but we cannot allow ourselves to get too attached.

From Gameweek 9 it will be a case of form versus fixtures as we see Spurs run into Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool in four of the five matches between Gameweeks 10 and 13.  Even though owning both Kane and Son has been almost essential in the early weeks of the season, I definitely think it is time we seriously examine the merits of keeping the pair beyond Gameweek 8.

    I’m playing 3 at the back and my defence is:

    Robertson, Semedo, Lamptey, KWP, Mitchell

    A) Robertson -> Chilwell
    B) Semedo -> Chilwell
    C) Save FT (who to bench?)

    1. aapoman
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      B. Wolves fixtures are crazy bad

      1. TheDragon
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        The next 2 fixtures aren’t that bad. Would get rid after that regardless

        The huge decision is Liverpool defence - I just can’t bring myself to remove Robertson.

        1. Vazza
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah don’t remove Robbo, I have him in my team too. Chilwell in my opinion will regress soon as he won’t be able to sustain the level he is currently performing at.

    2. Vazza
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Save FT. Bench KWP and Mitchell

  2. aapoman
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    How is this after 2ft? No Chelsea is a bit scary maybe

    Martinez
    Lamptey* KWP Coufal
    Salah KDB Son Grealish Zaha
    Kane DCL

    Forster; Ayling, Kilman, Brewster

    1. jomikijiq
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      very good team

    2. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Front 7 and keeper = 10 out of 10

      Defence I do not enjoy

  3. Luton_Fan
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Keep going around in circles with this one. Need to make a decision, can u help please.

    Martinez
    Chillwell, lamp, kwp (dallas)
    Son, grealish, salah, sterling, trossard*,
    Kane, Bamford (brewster)

    1ft.

    A. Trossard to zaha
    B. Trossard to bowen
    C. Hold, roll ft

    Thoughts appreciated

    1. jomikijiq
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      A

      1. Luton_Fan

        Thanks. On the button with that.

    2. popcoin
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      C, Dallas is a great sub to have if Trossard doesn't play

      1. Luton_Fan
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Think there is possibility trossard doesnt start?

    3. Big Ping
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Trossard a good option this week i thought, is he injured?? (Asking as an owner)

      1. Luton_Fan
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        nope not injured.

  4. Bobby_Baggio
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Boring but which 2 to Start out of the below please? Currently on B & C. Cheers

    A) Konsa (ARS)
    B) Kilman (LEI)
    C) Lewis (SOU)
    D) Justin (WOL)

    1. Luton_Fan
      • 15 Years

      Justin, lewis

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        cheers surprised at Justin - you dont think WOL will score?

        1. Luton_Fan
          • 15 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Yes but so will arse and leicester. justin may get an assist.

          1. Bobby_Baggio
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            cheers for response

        2. aapoman
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Wolves will score but more likely less than any of the other opponents

          1. Bobby_Baggio
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            cool cheers

    2. Vazza
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      C and D IMO

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers - you think LEI will keep a cleanie?

        1. Vazza
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I think LEI have a greater chance of keeping a cleanie than WOL.

    3. jomikijiq
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      C D

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers you dont think WOL will score?

        1. jomikijiq
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I think they will, but the chance is smaller than with the other options, which is the point 🙂

  5. Boz
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone know whether Fornals or Bowen be more at risk from Benrahma?

    1. popcoin
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I've seen people say Fornals, but no idea tbh

      1. Boz
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks

    2. Doylaz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      From a West Ham fan - Bowen will not be at risk

      1. GENERATION X
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Bowen on pens?

  6. popcoin
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Cresswell worth 0.6 over Coufal?

    1. jomikijiq
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      no

    2. Vazza
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Bellerin is worth 0.6 more than Coufel though

  7. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Can I save the transfer or it is too risky? Players with * have fitness issues or their starting role is under jeopardy.

    Martinez
    *Lamptey Robbo Chilwell *Justin
    Salah Son Grealish Zaha
    Kane DCl
    bench: *Antonio *Mitchel *Stephens

    I might have less that 11 players or be forced to hope for 1 pter by Stephens? Rolling the transfer will give me so many options after the IB

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      anyone?

    2. Muller Reus Corner
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      If you are worried, bring in Coufal for Justin.

      1. Vazza
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Or Bellerin rather

    3. Vazza
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I think Lamptey and Justin will both play so you may as roll your FT

    4. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I don't see where the risk to Justin is yet...

  8. Old Gregg
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Ryan >

    a) Mendy
    b) fabianski

    I have chilwell

    1. The Road to Turfdom
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I went Mendy (but don't currently have Chilwell)

      1. Old Gregg
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        thanks

  9. the vanisher
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    who to shift for Chilwell?

    Justin or Saiss?

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Saiss imo

    2. popcoin
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Definitely Saiss. Justin will be a great pick GW10 onwards

    3. jomikijiq
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Saiss

  10. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Will that 4.0m defender from Liverpool get the next games (after the IB) at least?

    1. popcoin
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      not sure with Matip back

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        too bad, i needed that cheap player to play 1 game.

        and what about that 3.9 lad, who was it, do you know?

    2. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      There's two: Williams and Phillips. I assume you meant Phillips as he's the one who played last week, my guess is he will play some odd games when Klopp needs him. As far as I know he's not in the squad for CL games so he should be more available for PL games than his buddy Rhys Williams but who knows really.

      Are you transfering him in or using WC during IB?

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        transferring him as a replacement for robbo and using the cash for city players. i need him to play 1 or 2 games the most and he will be permanently benched after wards

        1. Pipermaru
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          What's your defense after that transfer?

  11. Jdpz
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Zaha or Grealish (for next 3 GWs)?

    1. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Both

      I think Grealish is an easy season keeper and Zaha has a lovely next 4 fixtures

  12. TheDragon
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    How essential is Chilwell?

    He is in my head!

    1. jomikijiq
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      good pick, but not realy essential

  13. LanMi
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Do you think it's reasonable to do TC on Son?

    1. popcoin
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      yeh

    2. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I do not

      Just save it for a double gameweek

    3. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Even if you are OK on using it in a SGW, West Brom v Spurs is not the fixture of the season by a country mile.

      1. LanMi
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Why? Son scored 7 goals in 3 away games and WBA lost to Fulham last GW.

        1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Neither of which guarantees success this week. But, it's your chip so is entirely up to you how to use it 🙂

  14. FPL ZB
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Bamford or Wilson in for Mitro?

    1. popcoin
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      thought about this a fair bit and it was genuinely a 50/50. Personally I would go Wilson just because it's my kind of fantasy player - experienced, intelligent, consistent striker

    2. jomikijiq
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Wilson

    3. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      It’s a classic case of

      - striker who will get loads of chances who is useless at finishing
      Vs
      - striker who will get few chances who is good at finishing

      I’d go Wilson due to penalties and better fixtures personally

    4. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      really difficult question for myself too, probably wilson

    5. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Had that decision last week - went Bamford. Still prefer him, but Wilson may be more consistent

    6. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I'm a Leeds supporter and have Wilson.

  15. Will J 256
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Who do you prefer as a Pulisic replacement? Ziyech or Rashford?

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I went Ziyech.
      Utd looking awful right now. Probably the worst performance I've ever seen from them on Tuesday night

  16. DAZZ

      This is only my 2nd season and the 1st I only got ‘into it’ half way through, think I played all my chips in the first 3 weeks lol

    5. NABIL - FPL otai

      Started in 06/07 as well 🙂

    7. Luton_Fan

      11th season. 10th season anniversary of coming 4th overall. 🙁

  17. Pacer.
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Martinez
    Chilwell, Zouma, Justin
    Salah, Son, Bruno, Grealish, Bowen
    Kane (c), Wilson

    Forster - Mitchell, Brewster, Konsa

    Hokay? Bench order?

    1. Pacer.
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Debating even Konsa over Justin after Villas rest and LEI/ ARS midweeks

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good- might have Konsa ahead of Brewster

  18. Tinmen
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Folks, Any love for Greenwood?

    I was going to save my FT and play Foden this week , but I want a United player in next week, so how about Foden to Greenwood this week?

    1. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Absolutely not

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I am closely monitoring him.

    3. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Not yet

  19. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Boom

  20. waltzingmatildas
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    How does this attack look from next week? Anyone missing?
    KDB Mane Bruno Grealish Foden
    DCL Bamford Brewster

    1. Bleh
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Bruno, Foden, Brewster are the main question marks for me. Needs Kane or Son.

      1. waltzingmatildas
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Bruno could easily be Son. Foden would be the starter, with Brewster to come in for him if he doesn't play.
        Thanks

  21. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Team and bench order looking correct?

    Martinez
    TAA Lamptey Chilwell
    Salah Son Ziyech Grealish Podence
    Kane (c) DCL

    Forster Saïss Mitchell Brewster

    1. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      V similar to me so hopefully a huge score incoming!

      Really tricky decision on bench order as obv some risk of a saiss 1 pointer

    2. jimbo90
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Exact same starting team as mine. Like it

  22. Bleh
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Any changes you’d make here or good to save FT?

    Martinez
    TAA, Lamptey, Chilwell
    Salah, Son, J.Rod, Trossard
    Kane, DCL, Wilson

    Subs: Steer, KWP, Mitchell, Stephens
    1 FT, 1.5 ITB

    Thinking of doing TAA, Trossard, Wilson > Bellerin, Jota, Werner in the coming weeks.

  23. Jdpz
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Who scores penalty in Aston Villa? Grealish?

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      probably. he and watkins share them

    2. Hy liverpool

      Don’t do that - it’s the hope that kills you

    Kane's Last game for me this week. Feel sad. My GW1 pick that I can be proud of.

    You will be missed, Harry.

    Just to be clear Bamford's surname is unique in the game and you don't gain any time on keystrokes.

    Its FPL not the Flintstones....

    will that 3.9 lad from brighton start this GW? I need him for this week only.

    Morning all,

    Not sure where to prioritise, I have 2FT and 1.1 ITB. I took a gamble a few weeks back on Bale which hasn't really paid off and I think the defence needs some attention?

    Martinez Forster
    James Saiss Justin Mitchell Dunne
    Salah Son Bale Grealish Zaha
    Kane DCL Davis

    Thanks

      Saiss out. I'd be tempted to keep Bale for WBA

        Thanks Turfdom, leave it as just the 1 transfer?

        Also do you think it's worth getting Chilwell even though I have James or go with someone like Bellerin?
