Dugout Discussion – West Ham vs Liverpool

Liverpool’s top four ambitions come under scrutiny in Sunday’s next encounter, as Jurgen Klopp’s charges make their way to the London Stadium to face a buoyant West Ham United.

Boosted by last Friday’s 1-0 victory over London rivals Spurs, Slaven Bilic’s side will provide a stern test of Liverpool’s credentials; the Hammers have kept three successive clean sheets heading into this match.

The Reds will surely look to Philippe Coutinho for inspiration.

The Brazilian is comfortably the top owned asset on show in this afternoon kick-off, with the midfielder still part of 18.8% of squads.

He has suffered from significant recent sales, however: more than 221,000 managers have moved Coutinho out of their squads over the previous two Gameweeks. A modest 14-point return over his last four Gameweeks, featuring just a single goal, proved damaging.

Coutinho’s profit from this match is likely to have the main impact on our Gameweeks, then, with only minor interest elsewhere.

Roberto Firmino – part of 10.5% of squads – misses out, while Daniel Sturridge earns a rare start, his first since Gameweek 20.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Carragher should not be allowed to do commentary on Liverpool games. So biased.

        Actually think a draw is better for ARS assets or even a LIV win because I feel if Arsenal go into GW38 already in 4th with it to lose, the performance will be much more nervy/conservative at home to Everton. If they go in still "chasing" and playing with the freedom now of "risking it," and needing a result, could produce better returns. Alternative viewpoint but psychologically Arsenal are not the strongest bunch.

        1. Ibracadabra

          I am assuming Ars beat SUN in this scenario regardless.

            not for me i want it to be in Arsenals hands after today from my FPL perspective. Pool will win in 38

      King's on my bench, so if Gabbiadini plays next time the BB would've been decent.

    Perhaps a stupid question but is there any way of seeing the number of players in a league?

    1. Pep says
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 12 months ago

      Where in the league at you coming?

      1. teneighty
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 12 months ago

        Currently top 10 in my country but it's hard to brag when I don't know how many players there are. 😉

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Go to penultimate page. 50 x that page number + remaining players on last page

    3. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 12 months ago

      Take 200 hits, you should end up last 😉

    4. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 12 months ago

      Go in that league, go on next page, then in url their will be page=2.

      Keep changing that number till it shows error or something like that. Try 10, then 15/20 etc etc

    If Liverpool win their match,do you think Wenger will rotate and keep Sanchez Cech etc as subs?

    1. Somalion
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 12 months ago

      No, if Pool win today Arsenal can still catch them if they lose/draw their 38 fixture.

    2. acidicleo
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 12 months ago

      in any case arsenal need to win that match ryt...

    3. Sims
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 12 months ago

      Liverpool game should not make arsenals approach change
      Both games must win
