I'm no politician, but given how well we're doing in Europe, do we really want to Brexit? Kane came back in a big way mid-week, spearheading Tottenham's dominant drubbing of European Champions Real Madrid. Alli, Dier, Trippier and Winks were a supporting cast so you can now confidently bet on England to win the World Cup next year. Fantasy-wise, though there weren't too many surprises. Aguero broke a record - becoming Man City's leadingist ever scorer over household name Eric Brook. Honestly, though, if you'd told me it was Paulo Wanchope with 42 I would have believed you. United and Liverpool won comfortably but Chelsea betrayed a lack of cohesion and drive in a loss to Roma that had Conte screaming "che cazzo sta succedendo" on the sidelines. Premier League contenders they ain't, although Hazard does look ruddy dangerous.
Taking Coutinho out your lineup last week like...
BUY LOW
Joseph Gomez (4.5) -- Liverpool
Liverpool finally demonstrated that they're capable of keeping a clean sheet against 'Uddersfield, and just in time for a tidy run of fixtures.
Average Joe has been a mainstay for the Reds since week 6, and is a cheap route into a side that might want to focus more on defending if it's to seriously threaten the top 3.
Dejan Lovren's warm up didn't inspire Klopp to put him back in the team
SELL HIGH
Nacho Monreal (5.6) -- Arsenal
The Gunners are serving up lukewarm defending with a side of mashed from playing on Thursday night and haven't kept a clean plate since Brighton at home in week 7. For their next two courses are 7-goal-per-game City and delectable Spanish conquistadors Spurs so swap your Nachos for an order of someone with healthier prospects and get a cheeky discount in the process.
Oh and don't forget to give your waiter a tip...
FOOL'S GOLD
Keiran Trippier (5.6) -- Tottenham
If you watched the Tottenham Champions League masterclass on Wednesday you'll have noticed that Spurs' opener came from a wonderfully caught Trips cross. You'll also have realised that he put in many such crosses this game and, in fact, that it's his fifth assist of the season, despite not starting every game.
If you've been paying attention all season, though, you'll have realised that new signing Serge Aurier is staking an equally strong claim for the starting berth given his provenance, price tag and athleticism. Pacy and resilient, he's a player more in the mold of the erstwhile Lilywhite Kyle Walker. He lacks the crossing ability Trips displays on a weekly basis, but security of starts is so important, and it appears that many Fantasy managers have been deceived into believing Keiran's a dead-cert starter. He ain't - and he probably won't play this weekend.
