Game week 2 arrives at its conclusion this evening as Liverpool welcome Bournemouth to Merseyside for the first ever league meeting between the two clubs. After a multitude of armband options failed us again, many will be looking to Reds attack to save yet another disappointing round of results for Fantasy managers.

Certainly, Liverpool carried plenty of threat in front of their own fans last season. Despite scoring only 30 times at Anfield in 2014/15, Brendan Rodgers’ men fired a total of 331 attempts – only City and Arsenal managed more efforts when it came to home encounters.

As for Bournemouth, they arrive at Anfield boasting a fine away record in their Championship winning season, claiming eight victories and suffering just five defeats on the road, with a goal difference of plus 30.

Delving into last week’s data, though, tonight’s two sides managed just one big chance and five shots on target between them in Gameweek 1, suggesting that both sides will need to improve in the final third should they have ambitions for three points.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    With the new rules that shouldn't have counted. Coutinio influenced the play when he was offsides. So unlucky for Bornemouth. Should be 1-0 up, but they're 1-0 down!

      Oh well.

    Only god thing was Henderson assist. Tekkers knows I put him in my wc team yesterday and is just teasing me 🙂

  10. Mr. Grv
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    wow head to head opponent gets a offside goal and I get disallowed a perfectly fine assist. Crap GW

  11. Bartowski
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    I think an offside goal and a penalty for Benteke would be enough without me worrying about taking him out on a wildcard...

    1. Legendary!
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Isnt Hendo on pens?

  12. Punty
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    First goal on my team this season.. now for Gomez to get my first CS this season, I'm flying up the ranks probably, gonna be at least top 2.5mill by the end of the night

    1. Legendary!
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson looks like he might score...

    7. BUZZBOMB ♡
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Last Minute, I know but million dollar question in-game for you and the guys, Jonty - Despite scoring after 25, should we still be considering Benteke as makeweight out for Sanchez, Silva, Yaya, etc or credible alternatives such as Kane, Giroud?

    8. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Scoutcast should be on Wednesday really...

  16. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years

    Is the FPL site really struggling under load this season?

    1. Call Me Guybrush
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah, it's struggling for me right now.

  17. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Ahh crap my rivals captained Benteke

  18. Call Me Guybrush
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Captain Benteke, turning an awful game week into a mediocre one. Let's have another.

    1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      this

  19. Yes Don
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Coutinho was off.

  20. Epic Fail
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Why was Coutinho lazing around in an offside position anyway? What a fool.

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      The whole of Brazil is basically offside ... 😉

  21. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Nice parting gift from Benteke, see you later on in the season!

    1. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Who you getting?

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 5 months ago

        Went all out on Aguero.

        1. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 5 months ago

          Fair do's!

  22. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    I'm not here to gloat. The relief for my first goal tho! And Hendo assist. Loving it!

  23. Danno - Emre Canada
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Continho went for the ball, offside, but I like to follow Liverpool and have Tekkers captino soil get over it. Now come on Ibe and Gomez

  24. Would an idiot do that?
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Every time there's a goal in a televised game the fantasy sites crash

  25. Tiamani Warrior
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    I don't have the sound on because I'm watching at work but surely that was offside?

  26. Mull
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Coutinho deserves a slap from Skrtel at half time for almost f-ing that up.

  27. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Benteke likely to play all 90?

    1. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Think Ings might get 10 minutes if they're comfortably ahead.

      1. Tiamani Warrior
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 5 months ago

        ings be on with 30mins to go trying to claw back wilson's hat trick

    2. KingNidge
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago
