All eyes on Kane and Son as Fulham visit Spurs

All eyes will be on Son Heung-Min (£9.8m) and Harry Kane (£11.1m) as the two well-owned Spurs attackers aim to put Fulham to the sword in Blank Gameweek 18.

Joining the pair in attack will be Moussa Sissoko (£4.9m) playing in a more advanced position. Harry Winks (£5.2m) retains his place in a midfield three, with Pierre-Emile Højbjerg (£4.9m) and Tanguy Ndombele (£5.9m) .

Sergio Reguilon (£5.7m) makes his Premier League return, with Serge Aurier (£5.2m) on the opposite side of the defence.

Eric Dier (£5.1m) and Davinson Sanchez (£5.2m) partner in central defence, with France international Hugo Lloris (£5.6m) in goal.

Scott Parker, who was furious at the game being moved with so little notice, has made several changes to his line-up.

Out-of-position Ivan Cavaleiro (£5.4m) continues in a false nine role for Fulham, supported by Bobby Decordova-Reid (£5.3m).

Ruben Loftus-Cheek (£5.9m), Harrison Reed (£4.4m), and Andre-Frank Anguissa (£4.5m) make up a midfield three for the Cottagers.

Kenny Tete (£4.3m) and Antonee Robinson (£4.4m) line up at wing-back, with Ola Aina (£4.4m), Tosin Adarabioyo (£4.5m) and Joachim Andersen (£4.5m) in central defence.

Alphonse Areola (£4.5m) keeps his place in goal.

Spurs XI: Lloris; Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Reguilon; Sissoko, Hojbjerg, Winks, Ndombele; Son Kane

Fulham XI: Areola; Tete, Andersen, Adarabioyo, Aina, Robinson; Loftus-Cheek, Reed, Anguissa; Cavaleiro, Decordova-Reid

    Anyone have any idea on the percentage of FH's played?

    1. Casual Player
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      63% of the top 10k used FH. 22% overall

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      63% of top 10k played FH this week, meaning 78% have now played FH this season

      1. Qaiss
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        That many people have played it? Woahh

      2. Pompel
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Higher than I expected. Can hope to make up ground gom BGW29 then

      1. Pompel

    Flappy, bam, holding, Smith Rowe

    Bb?

      • 11 Years

      Nah

  3. Athletico Underachieving

    Cue 1-1 tomorrow with xhaka goal and tierney OG just to top the gameweek off

    1. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      We haven’t beaten Palace in the last 4 times we’ve played them. 3 draws, 1 loss.

  4. Digital-Real

    using 1st Wildcard by GW16 is a rule that needs to go. There should be no time limits on it.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      One WC a season could solve that.

      1. Digital-Real
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        This, though can't see FPL do that, two WC keeps players interested.

          2 anytime WCs seems a bit much.

          1. Digital-Real
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            wasn't that the case few seasons ago?

              99% sure it never was that way

              1. MSTRKRFTSMN
                • 10 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                Not since we had a transfer window anyway

            2. MSTRKRFTSMN
              • 10 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              Nah

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

      Huh? Why. Theres a 2nd wc right after that deadline so essentially it makes no difference, you could just not use it and use the 2nd?

  5. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Why isnt Reguilon nailed?

    1. JJO
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Cause he is not bad as Jesus

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Deep!

    2. F_Ivanovic
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He is (for the most part) - games he's missed have been Jose giving him a rest with perhaps only the Liverpool game was for tactical reasons as Davies is the better defender.

  6. pundit of punts
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Tweaked my DGWFHT a bit. Thoughts? 🙂

    Alisson
    Stones - Coufal - Dawson
    Salah - KDB - Bruno - Pulisic - Foden
    Vardy - Antonio

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Sooner have flappy in goal

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Never mind, didn’t see Dawson

    2. FPL_DON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'd want robbo

      1. pundit of punts
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Can’t generate the ££

    3. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Downgrade Pulisic to Soucek and upgrade Dawson, or to Barnes and swap Alisson for Fabianski

      1. pundit of punts
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Fabianski injured

        Don’t want to go there

  7. Ohh1454
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Thinking about FH next week. Thoughts on this possibly
    Fab
    Taa Creswell Cancelo Dias
    Barnes Pulisic Kdb Bruno Salah
    Antonio

    1. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Looks good

      Lots of options to play with for us

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Would want Vardy on a FH (if fit)
      Wouldn't be surprised if Son outscored Pulisic
      Looks good though, like the Antonio pick

  8. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Mane, DCL and Dallas to KDB, Antonio and Cancelo(-8)? Thoughts?

  9. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Son(c) will blank, isn’t he?

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No, he will score and assist

  10. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Good first half 🙂

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I should just remember to do what your username says this season...

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        🙂

    2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes. And as a non FHer going well. Beating my cup opponent and ML H2H; both have FHed. Plus a 40k jump as of now.

  11. MSTRKRFTSMN
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Been anonymous so far

  12. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    No DGW defender at 4.6 or less?! Could not find any.

    1. MSTRKRFTSMN
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Balbuena possibly

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Lost his place to Dawson I think.

    2. Here's Tom with the We…
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes, but unfortunately you’re looking at Fulham, West Brom or Burnley.

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yes. Thats what the issue is.

    3. Carefree Crew
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Dawson £4.5 W.Ham?

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Thats the one probably! Taken Balbuena's place I think.

        1. MSTRKRFTSMN
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          “We’re not too bad,” Moyes said, reflecting on the overall fitness of his squad. “I think we’ve got one or two knocks and niggles, which we’ve had.

          “Fabian Balbuena missed the game in midweek and I’ll need to see how he is. I’m not sure how he’s going to be yet.

          “Michail Antonio’s back on the grass so we’re pleased to see him back. Whether it is too quick for him, we’ll need to assess as well.

          “Overall, we’ve got a few knocks and niggles and we’ve got players who’ve carried knocks, but that would be normal getting to this period in the season.” Moyes 3 weeks ago

          1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Dawson has put in some solid performances post that.

            1. MSTRKRFTSMN
              • 10 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              It’s true but balb is back now and never missed a minute prior to the injury. It’s a tough one

              1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
                • 7 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                yes.

                1. MSTRKRFTSMN
                  • 10 Years
                  3 years, 2 months ago

                  It’s on my list to decide

                  1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
                    • 7 Years
                    3 years, 2 months ago

                    I have Cpufal but a double up should not be bad. considering the fixtures.

          Recovering from being Rona'd...

          1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Right guy. Right time. Does Balbuena slot back in?

            1. G-Whizz
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 6 Years

              Would do normally but who knows how his health will be after?

              1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
                • 7 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                Ok. Thanks!

  13. Flair
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Might keep both Son and Kane for Sheff Utd. Can see 3 goals in that which means double digit hauls for both. No Salah though...

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Exactly same situation.

    2. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Going without Salah in a DGW is really really asking for trouble imo. Can maybe keep one and sell the other.

      1. Flair
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Selling Kane to fund Salah is the most sensible option right now probably. Playing so damn well though.

        1. Qaiss
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          That’s the move I’m doing for definite. I’m 50/50 on keeping Som.

          1. Flair
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            I was going to drop Son but it was pointed out to me that Sheff Utd are actually fairly aggressive which suits him very well on the counter, Rashford for example hauled at LW a few weeks ago. So that could be a fixture that greatly suits him.

            It'll most likely be Kane + Grealish/Son -> ST + Salah unless I chose to FH 19.

    3. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I may do the same ans save the FH as well.

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

      Nah better to spread the risk. Salah plays twice and if spurs have a bad day and don't score then both kane and son blank. Its possible for that to happen contrary to popular belief..

    5. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'm just keeping Kane and doing Son to Salah I think

  14. Flynny

    Which city defender to bring in for dgw19? (Got dias)

    A....cancelo (may only play 1)

    Thanks

        B

    2. Party time

        Laca + Saka mega haul tomorrow needed

        1. Fudgy
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I hope not I removed Saka for Gundogan

          1. JONALDINHO
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Removed Saka for Shaw. Looks like it was the right move

            1. G-Whizz
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 6 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              I removed Laca for Kane...

      • Chrisitis
        • 12 Years

        Son > Salah -4?

        1. Eliano
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I would say yes if Salah clicks in the DGW you will give up pints to a lot of people who have him

      • Scots Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Cancelled bench boost because of the postponements.

        Pretty hesitant to Triple Captain KDB after that last game.

        Never usually this doubtful to pull the trigger on my chips.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Half the season left to worry about them.

        2. PompeyUpNorth!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          It’s a unique kind of season though

        3. Pompel
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          TC is a complete lottery. Have TC's Aguero in dgs's a couple times in previous seasons for a "guaranteed " hauls, only to see benchings and blanks. So dgw19 as good as any dgw.

        KDB needs target practice, if not he's going to end up below Gralish and Zaha at end of season

        Missing sitters all the time, he got way more points when playing deeper

      • Rinseboy

        Would you BB this team?
        Leeds have screwed all my planning of getting KDB but could have this team for a -4.

        Currently on 38, with a Top10k average of 37. If the gameweek ended now, then I'd consider that a win, even if it did mean burning my FH. Without, I would be somewhere in the vicinity of 500k+ OR (a huge red arrow).

          Yeah but how many of the top 10k also wasted their FH this week?

          Sissoko is useless. I still dont understand how somwone like Jose puts him on the pitch almost every game.

            He has some great physical qualities but he's rubbish with the ball

        BB looking less appealing now.
        Not sure I trust KDB or an out of form Salah for the TC.
        Do you think it is smart to hold of all the chips in GW19 now?

          Probably.

        Really hope Villa play both with Martinez and Watkins in both as this is still perfect for me to bench boost if they do.

          They would need to open training ground by tomorrow latest to play I think which looks very unlikely atm

            There's still a chance Villa-New is rescheduled for 19
