In the first of two Easter Sunday fixtures, we drop by the Hawthorns at 1.30pm as West Bromwich Albion entertain Liverpool.

Unsurprisingly, Jurgen Klopp recalls both Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino after both emerged from the bench to grab a goal apiece in the 2-1 win at Stoke last weekend.

Coutinho’s strike – his third in as many matches – made him the sixth most transferred in player for Gameweek 33, with over 89,000 new owners.

In light of the Brazilian’s recent output, it’s no surprise to learn that the he is the most captained player for today’s early kick-off, with 77,887 FPL managers handing him the armband.

As the only team without a Gameweek 34 fixture, sales of the Baggies main men are likely to escalate over the next few days.

Indeed, both Ben Foster and Gareth McAuley are the top-ranked keeper and defender for transfers out since yesterday, with over 8,000 FPL managers already ditching the latter.

After being withdrawn before the hour-mark in each of the last two league fixtures, the McAuley exodus was well underway last week, with over 44,000 FPL managers drafting out the centre-half ahead of yesterday’s deadline.

    Clyne, is so wasteful. When he was at Southampton he was good I swear he is total crap now

  2. Feloh

    9 years, 6 days ago

    who are the 3 most essential defenders to keep till the end of the season?

    1. Sim Simma

      Would have been a Bobby Assist

  4. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 days ago

    Milner ruins a Firmino assist. Absolute sitter.

    1. Leaf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Talentless

  5. diesel001

    Milner has just missed an absolute sitter

  6. Rainer

    WTF Milner ruins a peach of a pass from Firmino

    Why are people taking this Sims guy seriously? He says he is a paying member of WBA, supports Leicester, previously supported Arsenal and on his profile he has linked to someone else's team who supports Bournemouth. Obvious troll.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 days ago

      Yeah - he is a troll

    2. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 days ago

      Ironic how nobody has yet posted 6 lines about me but you. And u blaming others for taking me seriously

      Judging by the responses most just hate me although I've never personally offended anyone unprovoked

      1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
        • 10 Years

        just breathe, you'll be fine

      2. Sendmelentils
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 6 days ago

        Hates a strong word SIM. Remember this is just an Internet forum and nobody really knows you. However, If you're a Liverpool fan I take back the above comment :p

  9. afcblegend

    I still find it strange how professional footballers can be so ridiculously one-footed as Milner

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 days ago

      I've seen him score with his left a few times

      It's players like navas that worry me

      1. afcblegend
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 days ago

        GTFO

        1. Sims
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 6 days ago

          Wow the hostility

    2. nkhoughton
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 days ago

      It is bad but plenty of good footballers stick to their preferred foot, robben for instance

  10. Kane-harry Island
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 days ago

    Cutinho is disgusting to watch in this match.

  11. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 days ago

    Clyne playing ridiculously high again...just like early season.

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 days ago

      He has very very poor end product though

      1. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 days ago

        Aye he does....and so does every Liverpool fwd with any chances he creates.

  12. Rainer

    McAuley making it past 60 mins, nice to see his owners finally get a bit of luck go their way!

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 days ago

      Yeah, they've had a wretched time of it this season

  13. The Overthinker

    Origi to benteke ft?

  14. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 6 days ago

    Bobby denied an assist

    1. The Mighty Hippo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 days ago

      and Origi denied a goal, that would have been a perfect combi

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 days ago

      You're not allowed to assist offside goals - it's in the rules.

  15. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 days ago

    (Rightly) Disallowed Origi G, Firmino A

    1. The Overthinker
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 days ago

      Damn. Would have been gold for me

  16. Sim Simma

    Morrison in.... only one winger for WBrom

  17. Egyptian Giza

    Really trivial question regarding sports betting. Don't you think it quiet easy to get away with those "10 min specials" I have been introduced recently to this subject and found out that you can bet on "a player to receive a yellow card in the first ten minutes" that doesn't require anything but a rough tackle from that player and it won't be suspicious at all. I know it's a pointless topic but still that player can make top bucks. Thoughts?

    1. Point-one short
      • 9 Years

      No, I don't think there's anything in it. Jley Barton has really cleaned up his game.
