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
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

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

  4. SantiClaus
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 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)

      Don't think so

    2. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

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

      *raises hands*

      • 12 Years

      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
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Better option?

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

    1. Backup Dancer
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

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

  7. FudgyBadger
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

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

  8. Nicks93
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    How about you get 1 more, Stirridge

    1. Lizard Lips
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 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
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

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

  9. Pochecinno
    • 10 Years

    LVG kept Toby on his WC

    #Younggate

  10. Chris_White

    Fosu Mensah on for 3 baps 😎

  11. Jay_

      DDG racking up the saves

    • ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 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 😀

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        And you dare to talk about jammy points...

      2. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 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'.

    • Weeb Kakashi
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      40 all out

      Lukaku (C), Coleman Robles Delaney, Bolasie left

      Green or Red arrow?
      Predictions?

      1. Trigg ⭐️
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Green as most won't have 5 in midweek.

        1. Weeb Kakashi
          • 10 Years

          Cheers

    • Loðbrók
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

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

      *ozil/aguero/sturridge (TC)

    • johnbarnes
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

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

    • Team Zissou
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Sooooo, Mitrovic -> Origi?! 😀

    • Bøwstring The Carp
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Moreno sneaking in for a BP

      Possibly 2 if Milner keeps dropping them 😕

      1. Mo Mané Mo Problems

        Studge winning goal (+3)

    • Ayew Serious
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Firmino with no involvement is very disappointing

      1. La vida FPL
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        It beats transferring out vardy on WC

      2. tm245
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Hope we get some returns 34/35.

    • tm245
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 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.

    • Shirokov(c)

      Schneiderlin on corners, what is life

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Remember when Jones was on them?!

        1. Shirokov(c)
          • 10 Years

      2. Lateriser 12
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

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

        1. Shirokov(c)
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Seems odd when you have Mata and Young

    • Lateriser 12
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Why don't Stoke take a shot?

    • Performance Series
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Why are people ditching Gabriel? Is he injured?

      1. Ziro Becomes One
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

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

      2. Shirokov(c)
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        I think there has been an overreaction tbh.

    • TheSteel

        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

    • George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

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

    • Lizard Lips
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 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
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Sure look, can't win em all

    • Hobolicious
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

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

    • GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 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
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Smalling.

      2. Sergeant Garcia
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Fosu Mensah 😛

    • Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 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
