Rounding off the weekend’s entertainment, there are a quartet of teams battling for supremacy at opposite ends of the country. Liverpool search for their first in win three outings when they host Stoke City, while Tottenham Hotspur duel with Manchester United at White Hart Lane.

Liverpool’s attack is in fine fettle ahead of their double next Gameweek, given that they managed the joint-third-most goals (eight) and second-most shots on target (27) over their last four matches. However, prospective investors will be concerned that the Reds possess the joint-third-worst shot-conversion rate (8%) in home matches. As for the Potters, they’ve recorded one clean sheet in 10 matches yet conceded the joint-second-fewest big chances (two) across their previous four fixtures.

Spurs maintained their attacking dominance during the last four Gameweeks, registering the joint-third-most goals (eight), most attempts (80), joint-most big chances (10) and most shots on target (31). As for the Red Devils, they ranked joint-third-bottom for goals (three), third-bottom for attempts (36), second-bottom for shots inside the box (18) and joint-third-bottom for shots on target (10), augmenting the Lilywhites’ clean-sheet prospects.

    Soooo, (C)Kun, Sanchez, double LEI defence rescued my bad GW, really angry at KDB and Coutinho. And i have Darmian :/ 51 points.

    Moreno was going to troll for sure but being moreno he decided its going to be just before DGW and now he will do nothing next week

    Daniels > Fosu Mensah? Too kneejerky?

    1. Sergeant Garcia
      10 years, 7 months ago

      He's on 3 BP's as we speak.

  4. SantiClaus
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Is it alright to keep Ozil over Sanchez if it means I get smalling over Darmian/Rojo?

    Essentially

    A) DDG Smalling Sakho Ozil (-12)

    B) DDG Rojo Sakho Sanchez (-16)

    2. GoonerByron

      My teams been fine, everyone started.. It's next week I'm worried about

      A friend of mine with Moreno and double Palace defence on his WC, also getting Iwobi on for Coutinho

      Those that didn't wc......

  6. Horcmen
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Better option?

    A: Ozil -> Sanchez, keep Kane
    B: Siggy -> Sanchez, Kane -> Martial (-4)

    1. Backup Dancer
      10 years, 7 months ago

      A. Kane had stoke next, I'm worried not owning him.

  7. FudgyBadger
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Everyone has points coming off the bench 🙁 While I have 19 points on the bench 🙁

  8. Nicks93
    10 years, 7 months ago

    How about you get 1 more, Stirridge

    1. Lizard Lips
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Don't be greedy, he's got 1 and given rotation to get a full 90 out of the player most likely to be given a rest is pretty sweet!

      1. Nicks93
        10 years, 7 months ago

        I paid 9.9 mil, I expect more than 6 pts 🙁

  9. Pochecinno
    10 years, 7 months ago

    LVG kept Toby on his WC

    #Younggate

  10. Chris_White

    Fosu Mensah on for 3 baps 😎

  11. Jay_

    DDG racking up the saves

  12. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Made a change at 11:45 to put delaney in the starting lineup after just transferring him in. Game updated and move didn't go through so had delay in the bench

    He now comes on 😀

      And you dare to talk about jammy points...

    2. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
      10 years, 7 months ago

      As I'm me I'll say well done.

      If I was you I'd probably say 'whatever sort of manager makes changes at 1145? Bad management. Nothing to be proud of'.

  13. Weeb Kakashi
    10 years, 7 months ago

    40 all out

    Lukaku (C), Coleman Robles Delaney, Bolasie left

    Green or Red arrow?
    Predictions?

    1. Trigg ⭐️
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Green as most won't have 5 in midweek.

      1. Weeb Kakashi
        10 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers

  14. Loðbrók
    10 years, 7 months ago

    A) Sanchez (TC) + origi
    B*) Sturridge + iwobi

    *ozil/aguero/sturridge (TC)

  15. johnbarnes
    10 years, 7 months ago

    oh no coutinho's not coming in...get in Iwobi first sub!

  16. Team Zissou
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Sooooo, Mitrovic -> Origi?! 😀

  17. Bøwstring The Carp
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Moreno sneaking in for a BP

    Possibly 2 if Milner keeps dropping them 😕

    1. Mo Mané Mo Problems
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Studge winning goal (+3)

  18. Ayew Serious
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Firmino with no involvement is very disappointing

    1. La vida FPL
      10 years, 7 months ago

      It beats transferring out vardy on WC

    2. tm245
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Hope we get some returns 34/35.

  19. tm245
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Players do deserve their bench points in FPL -- we aren't just managers we are also owners, so the reward is for having the player in the squad as well as for getting the squad selected correctly.

  20. Shirokov(c)
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Schneiderlin on corners, what is life

    1. Fred54
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Remember when Jones was on them?!

      1. Shirokov(c)

    2. Lateriser 12

      10 years, 7 months ago

      He's not that bad at all you know. Got a passing range.

      1. Shirokov(c)
        10 years, 7 months ago

        Seems odd when you have Mata and Young

  21. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Why don't Stoke take a shot?

  22. Performance Series
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Why are people ditching Gabriel? Is he injured?

    1. Ziro Becomes One
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Knee jerk. He'll play and keep 2 CSs in the DGW

    2. Shirokov(c)
      10 years, 7 months ago

      I think there has been an overreaction tbh.

  23. TheSteel
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone less than 44 atm?

    1. Ayew Serious
      10 years, 7 months ago

    2. Sergeant Garcia

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Please, I'm t n less than that with martial coming off bench for Coutinho. DDG has my hopes up, but a loooooong way to go.

      1. walkman666
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Milner

      1. Clumsy Sakho
        10 years, 7 months ago

        No as in I can't have any more pool players

  26. George Sillett
    10 years, 7 months ago

    I have never known anyone specialise in tedium the way LVG does week in week out.

  27. Lizard Lips
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Trolled big time this week.

    Switched Ward to Delaney for Delaneys slightly extra attacking threat, all my rivals went with Ward who gets 12 to Delaneys 6.
    Went Sakho over Moreno for assured starts.
    Lanzini goal disallowed. Payet goal disallowed. West Ham score 3 goals and they got no goals or assits.
    Coutinho doesn't come on giving rivals Iwobi off their bench.

    There is more. Horrible week.

    1. Shirokov(c)
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Sure look, can't win em all

  28. Hobolicious
    10 years, 7 months ago

    I have so far taken 3 points from 4 players today!

  29. GoonerByron
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Glad I didn't bring Darmian in with an early transfer now..

    Best DGW34 defender to get alongside Bellerin and Cresswell? Moreno?

    1. Chris_White
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Smalling.

    2. Sergeant Garcia
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Fosu Mensah 😛

  30. Hotdogs for Tea
    10 years, 7 months ago

    DDG on bench, Smalling second sub behind Mitrovic with Coutinho in starting line up - sad sad sad - next week will save me though
