The Dugout Discussion – Manchester City vs Liverpool

A busy Sunday comes to its conclusion at the Etihad now as Manchester City and Liverpool go head-to-head at 4.30pm.

Two of the top eight captains for Gameweek 29 take to the pitch now, with Sergio Aguero and Sadio Mane handed the armband by 8.33% and 2.12% respectively.

Owned by 21.6% of FPL managers, the Argentinian has found the net just twice in his last ten Gameweek appearances but history is on his side, having scored in all four of his home league appearances against the Merseysiders.

Both Raheem Sterling and Leroy Sane boast far better form than the South American as Pep Guardiola’s side look to recover from their midweek Champions League exit in Monaco.

The former has produced returns in nine of his last 11 league outings, while Sane has finally settled after a frustrating first few months after arriving from Schalke last summer – the German wide man has racked up six goals and four assists in his last 11 starts across all competitions.

Residing in over 23% of squads, Mane has delivered double-figures against Spurs and Arsenal in the last four Gameweeks to emerge as Liverpool’s most reliable FPL performer.

Sold by over 118,000 FPL managers last week, Roberto Firmino recovers from a minor groin problem to return to the Reds’ XI.

        Urban myth. Harry was born in 84. Hewitt didn't start ahem seeing Diana till 86.

    It's now been clarified today.
    Scoring the wining goal and getting BPS is a myth. Alli has gone from 25 to 20 in bps. Joke!

      Hes goal was not winning goal. Eriksen get baps for winning goal

        No, the winning goal is the second goal, cmon man.

      Yep. Being caught offside 10 times a game, fouling everything but the 4th official and diving for a pen should deffo be 3 baps.

    4. FALCAO & MOU

      U need to read the rules again, there are many more things like tackles, losing the ball, interceptions, etc.

      Fair reflection of his performance. One penalty goal doesn't give you a right to bps

    6. Qubit

      Just means he probably got lots of negative bonus stuff that gets added post match.

    What classes as a shot saved? I have Caballero, who has clearly caught the ball more than 3 times with the last player to touch the ball being a Liverpool player.

    For a saved shot to count does it have to be within a certain distance?

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Has to be a shot and not a cross

      Sterling has to learn when to pass/cross the ball after having beaten an opponent.
      He just keeps going on trying to go through everyone.
