Right, let’s all be honest about this for a second. Spurs are in complete meltdown mode. Romero injured. Van Der Venn crying at the end of the game at the weekend. No wins in 14 games, worst run since before WW2.
So here is the harsh reality for all us fantasy managers out there. If you’re still holding onto Tottenham Hotspur assets right now, it might be time for a serious rethink. This isn’t just a bad run — it’s a full-blown collapse, and from a fantasy football perspective, that’s gold… if you react quickly.
Spurs players: Avoid at All Costs
Spurs are currently operating at 0.97 points per game, which is textbook relegation form. They’ve taken just 1 point from their last 8 matches and are on a 14-game winless run — their worst stretch since 1935. For FPL managers, that translates to one thing: unreliable returns across the board.
Attackers? Low confidence, low output
Midfielders? Limited creativity and end product
Defenders? Conceding regularly
At home, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has become a target fixture rather than a fortress, with just 2 wins all season. Even the usual reliables like Porro, Udogie, Solanke… avoid them all like the plague.
Where the gold is:
Here’s where it gets interesting. Spurs aren’t just a team to avoid — they’re a team to actively target.
Right now, any player facing Tottenham is a genuine attacking prospect. The defensive instability is real, the confidence is gone, and teams are queuing up to take advantage. If a player you’re eyeing has a Spurs fixture coming up, that’s not a coincidence — that’s an opportunity.
When you’re planning your transfers, your captain pick, or your bench order, put Spurs fixtures at the top of your shortlist. It doesn’t matter who’s playing them. The chaos at the club is the signal. In fantasy football, chaos means goals — and goals mean points. Get in early and make it count.
So, Here’s What To Do Right Now
SELL:
Spurs defenders — no clean sheet potential. And with Romero gone for the season, that’s another reason to avoid them.
Rotation-risk attackers — not worth the gamble. Kolo Muani who?
HOLD (only if brave):
Premium attackers (Richarlson) — but only if fixtures turn (and even then, it’s risky)
BUY:
Attackers playing Spurs in upcoming fixtures. Even when they play Wolves.
Midfielders on set pieces against them
Spurs have gone from a team you might stock up on… to a team you actively target every single gameweek. In fantasy terms, they’re no longer an asset — they’re an opportunity. And until they show even a hint of fight or structure, smart managers will keep cashing in against them.
