Son TC fail

Ace2007

Kane!!!! no assist

wanderer100

Flukey goal but get in !!

shmeee

I'm 9th in a ML. Way off the pace. As good as given up for this season. 5 FPL players ahead of me in the league have Kane TC.

Unless he is your TC, ever goal is going to kill your rank!

Ace2007

If Son could do something it would be great

Kane looping header clips post and goes wide

Depends on your ranking, I moved up with the goal

Cartman78

I'm 29 points off the leader in main money league....he has Kane but has bizarrely (for him) captained Salah and doesn't have Son either so more Spurs goals coupled with my lame arse bench boost could actually close the gap a bit

I was a 600k OR and I've a green arrow with a 0.13% change.... It's still a green around so technically I've moved up! Hahaha!!!!

crushproof

Of course my main competitor also has Kane TC... thought he already used it earlier in the season. Sigh!

Ricky misses great chance, after Lloris saves shot from King

Forgotten what it's like to have a good tc. And the best fixture is yet to come. Great start to what will be a long week.

Captained Kane. On a red arrow

I know they all count, but he was very lucky to get both goals

You had to potential jinx it didn't you...

Kane carrying a knock?

Dr. Bre

Wouldn’t be surprised if Harry didn’t play second game cos it’s a few days before league cup final

Xander10

Kane knows how to finish but Spurs are muck. Glad I didn't fall into the spurs defender trap.

It would make sense.mourinho loves a pop at a trophy

Moura up front next game hopefully.

I wasted my TC chip weeks ago while my main competitor still has his TC but for some reason he didnt use it on Kane this week. We both have him captained but he could have gained 10 points on me from this game alone had he used it. With Southampton still to come I feel like Ive dodged a bullet in him not using it

Was just about to say that. Makes sense, Jose will want to keep up his record of winning something at every club he was at.

Jim Gazebo

Classic. Gundo double had him captained, he had his massive haul, got inured. Same now for Kane. Hope he plays that second game now. Disappointing to hear.

Maybe he forgot to use use it missed the deadline? Friday and all that.

A glimmer of hope for the Son captainers!

Kane getting hurt there ruined that. Hopefully he's fit enough to play a bit against Southampton (I'll take him coming off the bench and scoring 1)

I doubt Kane will play the Southampton game now after that ankle knock and an EFL Cup final next weekend.

Looks like Siggy might nick the 3 bonus

Even if I had that fella I would not have captained him. Seems very hot and cold this year.

Have you used the TC? I did a C Kane and will take the two goals. I assume most people had him captained anyway?

He only got goals because of class finishes nothing to do with Spurs play. So I actually feel a bit lucky with the two. (if that is all it will be)

Muahahaha

yeah the Friday deadline might have slipped him by. But he is in Australia so he literally had the entire day and more to meet the deadline by 2.30am his time. Im not sure where he will use it now but am relieved it wasnt on Kane in a DGW, there is only 4 points between us for several weeks now so its a real game of cat and mouse.

If there are only a few points, and if his main aim is to beat you - he could just keep it to the last GW and try to TC or your captain choice to nullify that.

14 goals and 9 assists and the third highest scorer in the game, you're a tough taskmaster!!

mugsymugsy

I'd be very surprised if Kane played midweek. Top 4 has gone. It's cup or bust for jose. Even a cup might not save jose.

That would annoy me. Was bad enough sweating that Richarlison would get something. As I got rid of him as part of a -12. Brought him just after he stopped scoring and would have went ape if he scored this week.

Sigurdsson looks like a great call to bring in for the run in as another poster said.

He is a real form player on pens as well. Surely his Everton spot is his to keep until the end of the season?

Newbie20

It’s so disappointing that Kane probably won’t play against Southampton now. I triple captained him but I suppose I would have taken 2 goals in this GW beforehand and I’ll have gained 12 points on my two rivals.

In my head I said that is a case of statistics proving anything.

I thought I was imagining it, so I looked it up.

His last double digits were gw26, gw23.

Scored a 5 gw27 and 7 gw31. Nothing else of note.

Over 300k TC'd Harry Kane according to FFS. So you are in good company.

munster87

Harry already has more points than the Burnley Fulham double when I TCed him. I’d still pick those two fixtures I think. Close call though.

Edit: if the fixtures were all played again obviously

Yeah his form since Christmas isn't great, whereas Kane has hit a good streak so I think Kane was the correct choice this week. I just took a punt on Son for the fun of it really. If he can score against Southampton there won't be much damage done anyway (assuming Kane can't play that is).

But he's not a striker, nor is he on penalties. GW28-30 he hardly played, so to say he's done nothing of note is quite harsh.

If Kane does not play -

I wonder will Jose play Alli and put Son as Striker or will he play that young lad Vincius?

I can't remember now if Son playing a striker made him a better or worse option fpl wise.

I only go on points brought in. There is no room for sympathy in my team!

Ya, I tced him. 2 is a decent return like but when he's got 2 and the worse team to play, you'd be hoping for more.

yeah him using his TC on the final day worries me. I was 110 points behind him at Xmas and had all but given up but managed to haul it all back in with a good wild card which led to a few 80+ point hauls. But since I caught him on points the two of us have been swapping the lead for nearly 6 weeks now with never more than 8 points between us at the end of each GW. Both of us had Dallas 17 points buried third on the bench last week and both of us were cracking up about it.

7 of our starters are identical now so its really hard to gain an advantage at this point. I bought Lingard early in his hot streak but then he bought him a week after I had got him in. The only big differential between us now is me owning Salah and him Bruno.

CSF

Feel like Kane won’t play the 2nd game now.

Hard to know what that means for Son. Does he play him because Kane can’t play or does he rest him with the worry that he’ll already possibly be without Kane against City and not wanting to risk being without both in what is surely the biggest game of their season now with top 4 realistically gone now having played the game extra and still being 5 points behind 4th with 2 others in between.
