Nottingham Forest Vs Tottenham Hotspur FPL: Who Hauled And What It Means

The call — Forest 0 Spurs 0: a goalless game that paid the back lines The City Ground, September 5. No goals. Both defences got paid anyway. Pedro Porro (£5.5m) took the top score in the match: nine points from 90 minutes, a clean sheet, defensive-contribution points and all three bonus. About 1 in 10 managers own him.

The report

He has produced without a goal or assist here — that is the point. He collects from clean sheets, defensive work and bonus, and that stacks even in a 0-0.

Van Hecke (£4.9m, owned by fewer than 1 in 10) added eight points with two bonus. Van de Ven (£5.0m) took seven. Kinsky (£4.5m), the most-owned player in this fixture at roughly 2 in 10 managers, made one save and banked six for the shutout.

Forest kept them out too. Jair Cunha (£4.5m) hit the defensive-contribution threshold with 11 involvements and scored eight points. Almost nobody owns him — about 2 managers in every 1,000. Milenković (£5.5m) matched the 11 involvements and scored seven despite a yellow card. N.Williams (£5.0m) took six.

The lines that hurt: Kudus and Robertson both came off after 29 minutes for one point each — Robertson's exit before the hour cost him the clean-sheet points. Chris Wood (£5.9m) got 16 minutes and one point. Fernandes played seven minutes, picked up a yellow and scored zero.

What it means for the deadline. Spurs have now kept a clean sheet and their back line is scoring through bonus and defensive work, not just shutouts. Porro is the route in at £5.5m with about 1 in 10 owning him — he is usually good for a return of this shape when Spurs keep it tight, and he adds attacking points on top when they do not. Jair Cunha at £4.5m is the budget note: 11 defensive involvements is a number that repeats, and he started and finished the match. Robertson's 29 minutes are a warning — that left-back slot is not settled.

The call: buy Porro. The facts back him — 90 minutes, the points routes, the price.
