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.

    Sakho owners, feel better now.

      Not really

    2. Revival

      Gabriel 1 pointer off the bench do

    3. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Aye

  2. Mickey Tyrion™
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Hahah Liverpool defense. Why are you in my wildcard?

  3. Tim Canterbury
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    This Liverpool rotation is most scary due to the indication of what's to come for next week. We'll probably get one game out of our pool players in 34

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

      There's less than 48hrs between the EL game and bou. I was counting on this before today. Any small doubt removed though.

        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        ummm its 64 hours

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

          I stand corrected (said the man in the orthopaedic shoes).

          2.5 day turnaround though...always expecting wholesale changes given the exertions Klopp asks of his team

    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Dudek would have saved that

  4. niloh1
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Seems like toure poor marking

  5. Swan - Villa Proud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    I don't mind that goal much, as almost everyone in my ML has double Pool defense. At least I got the defender who scored the goal 🙂

  6. Mata-Is-The-Juan
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Well a Moreno 1pter IS standard

    1. KingOllie
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Red card and concedes another and its on!

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      He scored mate 🙂

  7. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Someone want to mark Bojan? No?

    LR, you must be enjoying this.

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

      I'm going to keep shut is all.

      1. Clam. ☘️
        • 11 Years

        You going gw36 wc?

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

          Yep.

          1. Clam. ☘️
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Same. Can't wait 🙂

        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        lol don't let some debbie downers having a crap week get you down. Just remember to put the cool sunglasses emoji and the end of every post.

  9. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    I hope Liverpool get demolished now.

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

    That's Lovren and Sakho coming back in for the DGW 🙂 wahoooo

  11. KingOllie
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    The 13 year old spaniard scored

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

    Bojan Krkic, what a troll. When no one has him he doesn't score, and when no one has him he scores

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      You wot

    2. Pasqualinho
      • 17 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Try it again

      1. Meinhoff
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        the point of this bad joke is that nobody ever has Bojan in their team.

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

        Why the change in dp?

        Also, Mahrez -> Bolasie will pay off. You will see.

        1. Pasqualinho
          • 17 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          It certainly has potential to get that 1 pt back.

      3. Pariße
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        No one has him ever.

    3. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I see what u did there.

  13. BlzE_94
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    poor liverpool defending.....sakho will defintely play both games in dgw

  14. Jazz!
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Sakho nailed lads

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

      😀

  15. Postman Ty
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Skrtel needs to stop playing. now.

  16. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Why does Toure even bother getting in the box for set pieces?

  17. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Playing with Toure and Skrtel. What else does Klopp expect?

  18. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Get Sakho on now for a CS...

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

      Not even on the bench..

  19. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    From the players rested today it looks like Coutinho and Sakho are nailed on first choices - next DGW week - after Liverpool crash out of Europa

    But do you really want double Liverpool defence ?

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      No

    2. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Who's to say the rested players arnt earmarked for Dortmund and then rested again for the prem

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Fair point but it shows the pecking order for the rest of the season

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

        If they lose to Dortmund, no reason to rest them

  20. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Currently have 34 points, had I not Wildcarded and left my team alone would have 58 points + Kane and Alli to come

    1. JJO
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      The difference is even bigger in my team 🙁

  21. diz
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Owned Moreno for 18GWs and does nothing, the week I sell he scores. LOL

    1. 420king
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      well not nothing, I got one CS

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Nice rank.

  22. KOLASINA(C)
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Can I have my older team please?

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Press the back button!

  23. The Tinkerman
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Worst week of the season by far for me. Compounded by today's lineups, wanted to get Darmian in... Don't understand why he would be dropped ahead of Rojo. Who is more nailed:

    A) Rojo
    B) Darmian

      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      NOBODY. NO UNITED FULL BACK IS NAILED ON.

      EVER.

      1. The Tinkerman
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        My wildcard already has two injuries (I used mine in 32), so I have to bring a defender in, can't afford smalling.

          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Anyone but a United full back. It's just too risky. I'd rather get another Leicester defender, Clyne or Monreal.

          1. The Tinkerman
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Already have Monreal, I'm thinking Clyne at the moment but it depends if I can find a way to crowbar smalling in whilst sorting out my injury problems

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      None

    2. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      FYI I have 26 points with Coutinho and Kane to play.... So that's going to go well. If Cout doesn't play I have 7pts from Ozil coming of the bench, so knowing my luck he will get two mins at the end.

  24. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Kane spotted with his mouth closed 😯

    1. Stephen - Robot Daniels
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Good news for non owners, blank incoming.

  25. mr messi
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    I have Sakho, Gabriel and Darmian, should I not bother with bench boost next week?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Same + Lovren but it's too late to change now. May as well take a hit and still play the BB.

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

      There is no harm in playing that chip

  26. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    It's actually frustrating watching Allen get so far forward

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

      He's going to score.

  27. 420king
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    TOT MUN starting

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

      Let the Kane begin, Alli wanted was a DGW dream but its gone all Dier.

  28. Top 210 Club
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    All we need is a moreno red now!

  29. andy85wsm

    • 15 Years

    Did everyone get Rojo then? 🙂

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Smalling. No United CBs on the bench 😎

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

      Yep! Still not confident though...

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Very nice! Rarely misses games
