    Jota kills me. When he’s available and playing he just bangs goals. And when I bring him in he gets hurt and misses half the season.

    for me Son's a better pick than Saka for the following reasons:
    - Son has the better opening fixtures
    -Saka's mins in gw 1-2 may be reduced or he could even be rested
    - Son was only 13 points behind Saka last season despite being at the Asia cup and only having 1 penalty.
    -Son may be played as a no.9
    - They are the same price this season

      Nah it’s a close one Saka doesn’t matter fixtures for him bcz he plays in way better team and has had enough time to rest in my opinion and I don’t like son at the wing he’s scoring agaisnt mid teams in Asia right now at preseason

      Counter arguments…
      - Saka actually has better opening fixtures, WOL, AVL and TOT are weak defences
      - Arteta has confirmed Saka is not going to be rested, he will start from GW1
      - Son got a lot of his points when playing as a number 9
      - Son is not expected to play as a number 9, currently Kulusevski is playing there in pre season whilst Spurs look to sign someone, or they will use Richarlison
      - They are the same price… that I can agree with 🤣

      saka had 5 penalties over son and also arsenal didn’t score in both legs vs villa last season

      Is it because Son plays for Spurs that people lose their minds over Palmer but ignore Son? Spurs finished above Chelsea last season. Plus Son scored more non penalty goals than Palmer. Genuinely I don’t understand the fuss for Palmer over Son. Palmer seems like the hype 🚂 with no real substance to be regarded higher than one of PL’s greatest players in recent seasons.

      @@dylanmason1867 another factor I haven’t added in is that Son is fresh to go as he had the summer off and has been training and playing back with the first team. He looks sharp in friendlies and to me he’s straight in my team. If someone can provide a real justification as to why Cole Palmer is worth an extra 0.5m I’d like to see it. Maybe I’m overlooking something. Don’t forget too how well Spurs started last season before injuries. The weakness with the team is in playing too open and so conceding goals, it’s not about scoring them at the other end.
