Dugout Discussion – Swansea City vs Liverpool

Gameweek 24 concludes at the Liberty Stadium as Swansea City entertain Liverpool at 8pm.

The visitors boast two of the top five captains in Fantasy Premier League (FPL) for this round of fixtures, with both Mohamed Salah (13.8%) and Roberto Firmino (3.6%) in exceptional form ahead of their trip to south Wales.

Captained by 19 of the top 100 managers heading into Gameweek 24, Salah has returned double-digits on 10 occasions, with a goal or assist in 13 of his last 14 league appearances.

Firmino, meanwhile, has delivered 46 points across his last five starts, which includes two goals in a 5-0 win over the Swans in Gameweek 20.

The Reds’ rampant form had a marked impact on the FPL market ahead of Saturday’s deadline – in terms of transfers in, both Firmino (275,000) and Salah (233,000), along with team-mate Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (111,000), were among the 10 most popular trades.

The latter retains his place on Jurgen Klopp’s teamsheet in light of his goal and assist in last Sunday’s win over Man City.

Still only costing 5.7, Oxlade-Chamberlain’s claim as a budget midfield pick is enhanced by a schedule that pits the Merseysiders against Huddersfield, Southampton, West Ham and Newcastle in the subsequent five Gameweeks.

At the other end of the pitch, we’ll get the chance to monitor Virgil van Dijk’s impact on the Reds’ rearguard – the January signing has recovered from a hamstring complaint and starts under Klopp for the first time in a league match.

For the hosts, Jordan Ayew has another opportunity to impress as a budget striker option.

Costing 5.1, he was the fourth most transferred in (154,000+) player for Gameweek 24 – the Ghana international has netted in three of the last five and was also on the scoresheet in last week’s FA Cup replay win over Wolves.

    REPOST: So I hold my mini league by one point, chaser has Kane and 3rd & 4th are some 50 points adrift. Currently running my best season in FPL ever (probably first time I've focused start to (near) finish) as I'm OR 101K (before the whopping 4 points I picked up tonight)

    Anyways, I love tinkering with my team, a few people have said to wait, but thoughts on this team (will need to use WC);

    Schmeichel / Pickford
    Ota* / Azpi* / Smalling* / Alonso* / Monreal
    Mahrez / Mhiki / Salah* / Shaq / Lingard*
    Firmino* / Vardy / JAyew

    * = Currently have.
    Looking for a bit of an alternative team. Wanna spark a discussion, don't have work tomorrow and I'm bored!

      First look, too much monies in your defence

      1. Zenith UK
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        I've picked up a lot this season from here. Trying to stay off of the Kane bandwagon. Just for the sake of it really! Probably not the smartest move. Want Aguero but should've trusted my gut and done it this week as Jesus will be back before long.

    2. Pranav Santhosh
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      No need for a wildcard hold it

    3. One Man
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      I like your defense, similar to mine and the guy's who is currently top of FPL, good differential.

      My only problem with this team is no Aguero or Sterling.

      Why not get rid of Vardy, Firmino and Mhiki,,,,,and bring in Aguero, sterling and a real cheap forward,, also you could downgrade Pickford to make this happen.

      1. Zenith UK
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        My defence has held me in good stead this season I feel. Wish FPL released your positions returns at the end of the season. That'd be cool to know. Guess I'll have to do the math manually (yay!).

        I made a wildcard on another page with Aguero. I'll have another tinker and post one up. I've rotated Sane/KDB and Sterling this season, just kept getting it wrong.

    4. Zenith UK

      Side note for myself;

      Drop Vardy, Azpi* and Monreal
      Bring in Aguero, Chilwel and Masuaku*
      Leaves 0.4 itb.

    Pity about the Spurs game being in the way. If United had HUD next I would have done a filthy -4 right now and have Jones, Lingard, Pogba and Alexis (C).

    1. Licious Lizard (delete acc)

        GW 28 could be brutal for you if blank for the 4 teams

      • Pranav Santhosh
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        4 man united players 🙂

    2. barracuda
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      I am thinking of doing Kane plus Arnie to Aguero and Mahrez for a hit. What do you think?

      1. One Man
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Though you already had Aguero ?

        1. barracuda
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          Gone before this past GW 🙁

          1. One Man
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 3 months ago

            Sorry for you lad. I'm thinking of Kane and Son for Aguero and Haz.

          2. One Man
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 3 months ago

            Just do Kane to Kun.

      2. Pranav Santhosh
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Good move

    3. HD7
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Didnt watch the game earlier...
      Was planning Vert to VVD...how did VVD... or it is better to get Maguire?

      1. Licious Lizard (delete acc)
          6 years, 3 months ago

          He looked dangerous going forward.
          He made a big mistake that basically led to Swans goal.

          1. Rik Waller
            • 6 Years
            6 years, 3 months ago

            Big mistake seems a little harsh

            1. Licious Lizard (delete acc)
                6 years, 3 months ago

                You shouldn’t be heading the ball down in your own penalty box... but yeah - a mistake then. Just ironic as he was probably brought in to fix their vulnerability in set pieces among other things

          2. Captain Roberto
            • 6 Years
            6 years, 3 months ago

            His head is a ball magnet.

          3. Pranav Santhosh
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 3 months ago

            Would rather VVD instead of maguire

        • Zenith UK
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          Has anyone seen OR2 team? Must be fuming at that first sub choice, lol

            1. Licious Lizard (delete acc)
                6 years, 3 months ago

                Of course it is frustrating, but you can’t really be fuming. He made the right choice

                1. Zenith UK
                  • 7 Years
                  6 years, 3 months ago

                  I'd be fuming, purely because I'd be gutted!

                  That's actually lead me to think of another post.

                6 years, 3 months ago

                Ouch. Personally would have played Mawson over Evans just for the MNF thrill.

                Fair play to him though. Couldn't care less about the template and is reaping the rewards.

            2. barracuda
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 3 months ago

              Mawson must be hurting

              Right choice but unlucky

            • 7 Years
            6 years, 3 months ago

            Team needs an overhaul. Thoughts on a mini WC to do Son, Lingard, Arnie, Masuaku to Willian, Shaqiri, Mahrez and Chilwell

            Gives me:
            Pope (Adrian)
            Alonso Otamendi Mee (Dunk Chilwell)
            Salah Sterling Mahrez Willian Shaqiri
            Kane Aguero (Quaner)

            0.2m itb

            1. We Will Klopp you
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 3 months ago

              Scratch that, will avoid the Lingard to Willian move as it gives me more flexibility money wise and save the -8

            2. Srv210
              • 6 Years
              6 years, 3 months ago

              Willian can be a good punt,but -8 is not good, yeah rest of transfers are good but Arnie is still performing why get him out?

              1. Zenith UK
                • 7 Years
                6 years, 3 months ago

                Arnie injury rumours.

              • 7 Years

              Only need son to get rid of tbh

          2. wulfrunian
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 3 months ago

            Mahrez or Silva?

            1. We Will Klopp you
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 3 months ago

              Mahrez, no blank, better fixtures and Silva's personal issue still a worry

              I would downgrade Christensen and Atsu to Willian.

            • 7 Years

            VVD or Maguire?

              I don’t think I could pay 5.4 for a Leicester defender

                • 9 Years

                  • 7 Years
                  6 years, 3 months ago

                  Original plan eas Vert to VVD ... I think I will just go with it and hope Liverpool get cleanies now that VVD is in... he can also have some goals from headers

            How man utd could line up with Sanchez? So which one will it be?
            1) Martial/Rashford - Lingard - Sanchez
            2) Martial/Rashford - Sanchez - Mata
            3) Sanchez - Lingard - Mata/Rashford

              Dunno. Could adapt the formation.

              Martial - Lingard - Sanchez

              Martial on form.
              Lingard on form.
              Mata been dropped by Mourinho before.

            So, it's late, wanna spark a discussion.

            Anyways, so far this season I have had 9 GWs where I have had 10 or more points sitting on the bench. Can anyone better this?

            My bench points per GW;
            1,4,13,12,9,3,10,3,11,3,6,7,11,2,11,10,21,19,9,1,6,2,3,3

            That 11,10,21,19,9 made me feel sick respective points haul for those weeks were 75,45,57,88,53

                  Was just wondering mate.

                  6 years, 3 months ago

                  Fair play. My best ever so far. My season high so far is 56K.
                  My best season ever is 410K (15/16) with 2,049

                  How's you doing?

            2. E25
              • 8 Years
              6 years, 3 months ago

              Maybe had too much value in bench players early in season... nothing wrong with a strong bench though. I had a 15 and 10 b2b weeks but nothing like yours!

              1. Zenith UK
                • 7 Years
                6 years, 3 months ago

                Lemme have a look at some of the weeks. Think some of those big hits were DCL weeks. I overslept for one or two of them too. Also this is my first season sitting down and paying attention, using this website. Trying to catch the waves of certain players coming in/out.

                1. E25
                  • 8 Years
                  6 years, 3 months ago

                  They were RLC assist and an Elliot 9 pointer in gw 18 and 19. Still had solid weeks though

                  1. Zenith UK
                    • 7 Years
                    6 years, 3 months ago

                    GW3: Forster (11*), Hart (2)
                    GW4: Walker (9*), Mane (-2) < Mane RC week
                    GW17: Pope (11*), DDG (11) and Monreal (8*), DCL (1)
                    GW18: Pope (6*), DDG (3) / Klavan (6*), Smalling (2) / RLC (6), no outfield player scored worse.

                    * = Benched player
                    Player choice is lowest scoring possible replacement.

                    1. E25
                      • 8 Years
                      6 years, 3 months ago

                      Pope + DDG I would say is overkill

                      1. Zenith UK
                        • 7 Years
                        6 years, 3 months ago

                        Picked Pope up for 4.6M back in GW14. Had him since. It's nice to have an alternative when Utd play top 6 though to be fair. Get what you mean though. That GW17 was confusing to say the least haha. More frustrating when DDG hit 8 vs Arsenal and Pope got 2 (I think if I remember right)

              139 benched points here. Think the key is to have duds that are guaranteed 1-2 points at the very least and are cheap as peanuts. If you're benching too many points then I'd consider taking funds out of those players and rather invest in your starting XI.

                I'm at 177 if I added up right. A lot of my bench choices were cheap to be fair or scored unexpectedly.

              IMO people spend too much on their bench. 57 points here all season. You only need 1 playing bench warmer. You get better value spending the extra money on the pitch.

                See one of my replies below a lot of points would've come unexpectedly from Pope. One of the weeks I benched DDG was, for me the best game of the season (Arsenal v Man U) when he made record amount of saves (unexpected points).

                Then to have DLC and Klavan pick up high points too, again unexpected, low costing bench players.

                  For sure it can work for you. I've had a couple of auto subs were DCL comes in for 6 to 8 points etc. I've had Hazad benched when I capt him and Salah got 28 points as a VC. So lots of luck involved. But many times your auto sub comes in for 1 or 2 points. Everyone seems to forget that. Better to use the money on your starting 11 i think.

                    Massively. Tbh, I don't spend much on my bench but at the same time I refuse to be one of these who picks up a 3.9M keeper. That being said I think this season I've had a great eye for bench players, just haven't had the guts to stick them in at the right time.

                      For sure you have to be smart about it I agree. And you have to really be on top of player injuries / suspensions etc and take a few gambles based on team news etc.

                        I love play the odds and taking risks. Think one of the reasons I won't touch Kane is so end of season when (being hopeful) I win my ML I can say I did it without him.

                        I think I've only watched 6 MoTDs this season as well (slacking/weekend worker).

                  It shows you have a strong team all around your 15 players which is a good thing. I've had a bench fodder either long or mbemba the whole season so far

                  1. Zenith UK
                    • 7 Years
                    6 years, 3 months ago

                    Suppose, just a bit gutting sitting at 101K OR knowing I could be slightly higher, if not a fair bit higher. Hopefully I can get it right for the rest of this season and I'm already excited for next season!

                      101k OR is very good imo but I know what you mean when you think you could easily be a lot highest if it wasnt for simple mistakes. Either way best of luck for the rest of this season 🙂

                        Definitely considering 410K is my best ever at the end of the season. I'm really chuffed. But like you said, always hard to not be hard on yourself.

                        Appreciate that. Likewise!

                          410k is good compared to my first two seasons not even in top million ranking. Tbh tho I was just a casual who gave up after the first gameweek each of those seasons

              What's the total? Someone (Los Blancos) reckons they have lost a total of 250 points on the bench but I don't believe it.

              1. Zenith UK
                • 7 Years
                6 years, 3 months ago

                My total is 177 (benched over the season). Actual loss will be less because I would only gain 177 back if I had four players blank every game week (which of course hasn't happened).

                250 Benched is crazy because we're only 24 GWs in so you're looking at 10.4 points benched per week. That's 2.6 per player.

                If Willian becomes a nailed player would be the one I think certainly as a differential. Might be worth a risk even now...?

                      This season? Most seasons. Didn't he win it in their slump season too?

                      His deadball ability is fantastic. He can cross. He scores and gives 110%. What I'd give to have him at West Ham.

                When I last had Ramsey he did wonders for me. Last two GWs, broke my heart. Might not get the nod over Wilshere again?

                Shaq looking more promising. Willian rotation risk but I don't understand how Conte can't start him!?

                I really think Willian's form has been so compelling he will start most games now. I would include him in the top ten EPL player list. A good replacement for Arnie, who I would also put in that list.

              Don't see any obvious single transfers and apart from Lingard/Son concerns this week I'm OK to give them another week.

              Alonso Robertson Ota
              Salah Sterling Arnie Lingard Son
              Kane Firmino

              Elliot Ogbonna Duffy DCL
              1FT 0.2ITB

                6 years, 3 months ago

                I'd personally use a transfer this week

                1. E25
                  • 8 Years
                  6 years, 3 months ago

                  To do what? If Arnie out for a month then sure, but what if he's fit?

                  1. Pranav Santhosh

                    6 years, 3 months ago

                    I'd look at getting son out or even arnie if injured. Plus this week we know what teams will blank gw28 so we can start making plans for that by targeting players from specific teams. Your teams in a good shape but I reckon this is a good week to make some changes

                    1. E25
                      • 8 Years
                      6 years, 3 months ago

                      I hear you on the blanks and arnie injury could force my hand.
                      However Son is still good value IMO.

                      If I roll a transfer it opens up something like ota+lingard out the following week.
                      Could even downgrade ota and then upgrade son, something which wouldn't make sense this week or would need a hit.

                        6 years, 3 months ago

                        I just think a lot is going to happen between now and the deadline spurs tough fixtures fa cup games Carabao cup games we know who blanks gw28 and deadline is 30th so most transfers will be done by then. That being said rolling a transfer is never a bad thing and sets you up nicely like you mentioned

                          Appreciate the input. Food for thought with plenty of time to make decisions I guess

              I understand VVD wasnt at fault for the goal but also heard he was serious threat in the corners... still plan to get him in for Vert, good idea guys?

              1. Captain Roberto
                • 6 Years
                6 years, 3 months ago

                He had one header from a corner that missed.

                Liverpool were just far too slow and never hit the ball over the top.

                For his price he will be good points return i think.

                  • 8 Years
                  6 years, 3 months ago

                  Hard to get in behind a defence that deep lol

                • 7 Years
                6 years, 3 months ago

                Good idea imo

                • 8 Years
                6 years, 3 months ago

                I think people are exaggerating how at fault he was because it's an easy narrative to reach for but he did make a few minor mistakes over a few minutes which ended up resulting in the goal.

                He looks dangerous from set pieces and remember Pool's defence is far superior at home. Good transfer IMO

              If Arnautovic is confirmed injured, then Arnautovic & RLC to Mahrez & Shaqiri (have 3.2m ITB) for -4 is a no brainier as if both play over 60mins I’ll at least match the points Arnautovic & RLC would of scored (0)

                Jay Egg got one day rid off Kane (Xmas time) before he hit first hat-trick, he then ignored him again ...Kane hit another hat-trick...Jay brought him back in for the DGW and the rest is history. Conclusion? Get Aguero now folks!

                            Thought was high chance of up/down swing

                                For sure. I’m not against early transfers, but it always a risk

                                  All good. Just checked can do Kane Arnie to Aguero Mahrez -8. I'm on tilt after week gone

                                      You think Aguero will outscore Kane by 8 points over the next few weeks?

                              Another 8 days until the next gameweek and you make an early move for a measly price increase/decrease.

                        Thinking of a few moves and would really appreciate anyones advice:
                        1) Kane, Arnie (if injured), Carroll > Firmino, Willian, Mahrez (-8)
                        2) Kane, Arnie (if injured) > Firmino, Hazard (-4)
                        3) Kane, Lingard > Firmino + Mahrez (-4)
                        4) Kane, Lingard > Vardy, Hazard (-4)

                        Ultimately comes down to Hazard vs Mahrez & if Arnie is injured. Want to get rid of Kane for the next couple weeks and will reassess after. Option 1I have exact money for so would need to make move soon. Thanks so much to anyone who took the time to read. Cheers

                          I know it's not a huge help but I think 2 is just edging it. I can see Liverpool feeling humiliated and reacting massively and think the 4-0 thumping and Hazard's goal will give him confidence to go do it again.

                        This Arnie news is incredibly annoying if true

                        It wouldn't surprise me if it is though, West Ham have been riddled with hamstring injuries since Moyes took over, likely due to his whole "run your socks off in training" A sports scientist he is not.

                        Were Liverpool that bad or Swansea defence was resolute??

                        How did Swansea play,any player worth monitoring??

                          21 shots, 4 on target is what I've heard and it seems about right. Mane missed 2 great chances, Salah missed a good chance, Firmino hit the post with a header and Lallana somehow put the follow up over, Van Dijk went close with a header. On another day we win 4-1.

                            In summary, very wasteful and even then unlucky not to get the draw. So it was us who played poorly.

                            Ok,attack will come good then, just the finishing touch was missing

                          Both, Swansea hardly had a shot at goal but got one in. Pool had lots of shots but didn't trouble the keeper enough. Firmino should have made it 1-1 at the end.

                          So it means Liverpool were bad with the final finish then

                          Defended really well as a team. Bps tells you standout players.

                          swansea were not interested in playing any form of attacking football and liverpool just played in front of them vvd matip and robertson with most of the ball, created a few half chances could have scored with firminos chance at the end, salah had a chance to square it to mane late on also but chose to shoot (poor decision)
                          liverpool lacked that cutting edge, people will say they missed coutinho and they did but that is a lazy statement, they were slow and laboured in everything they did and just looked off the pace especially with swansea camped deep in their half

                          It felt like Swansea were playing a back 7 at times and crowded out at the back.

                          Liverpool were wasteful with some chances and weren't at the races Tbh. A drab game.

                          Swansea let Liverpool play in front of them, sat deep and said ‘come and beat us’ and defended very well.

                          Liverpool had no width and failed to get behind Swansea. This meant that until very late on that Liverpool were held to a few minor half chances reflected in them only having 4 shots on target, one being a free kick.

                          Liverpool showed that unless they are counter attacking, they do not have the craft, skill and guille to break down a resolute deep sitting defence. Liverpool needed a Coutinho, Sane, William or Hazard type player to break Swansea down, but they simply don’t have that.

                          Oh, and Swansea had a goal disallowed.

                          liverpool were nowhere as good like they were against man city.
