Should Any Spurs Player Be in Your FPL Team?
Managing a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) team is a tough gig. Every week you’ll need to make big decisions, the wrong move could cost you valuable points and see your team tumble down the table.
Tottenham Hotspur are struggling of late, with only four wins in their last ten matches. However, they say form is temporary. Are there any Spurs players you should keep in your FPL team in case of a Tottenham resurgence. Let’s find out.
Harry Kane
Harry Kane is Tottenham’s talisman. The 29-year-old striker is the club’s second-all-time highest goal scorer and is just one goal away from claiming the top spot. Despite Tottenham’s woes this season, Kane is still the second-top scorer in the Premier League. Unsurprisingly, it is Manchester City’s force of nature, Erling Haaland, ahead of him.
Who knows where Spurs would be without Harry Kane? He remains the club’s biggest star, with fans eagerly taking advantage of Tottenham e ticketing options to see him in action. Spurs may be on the rocks at the moment, but Kane is always a good choice for your FPL team.
Son Heung-Min
Son’s struggle to find his form so far this season can be seen as a reflection of the wider problems at Tottenham. With just four goals in 17 appearances, the South Korean winger has so far been a shadow of his former self.
However, everyone knows what he is capable of. On his day, he is certainly one of the best forwards in the league. All it takes is something to boost his confidence, and he should be back to his goal-scoring best, so keeping in your FPL side could be a smart idea.
Richarlison
Brazilian forward Richarlison joined Tottenham from Everton last summer in a highly publicised £60 million deal. Spurs fans expected big things from Richarlison, but as yet they have failed to really materialise. Many hoped he would kick on after impressing at the World Cup, where he scored a contender for goal of the tournament, but he has yet to find his form and has no goals in 11 appearances. Richarlison is a highly-rated player with bags of potential, but just might not be doing enough to earn a place in your FPL team.
Cristian Romero
Fresh off the back of lifting the World Cup trophy, it would be easy to immediately pick Romero for your FPL team. However, the defender has conceded 13 goals in 11 appearances for his club, certainly not what you want when looking for a defensive rock for your FPL side.
Conclusion
Picking the right players for your FPL team can be incredibly difficult. Form dips all the time, and it can be impossible to predict when a player might improve again. However, at the end of the day, you still have to make a decision, so the best thing to do is carefully analyse and research your available options. Kane and Son could be good ideas for your side, while Richarlison and Romero are best avoided for now.
