Gameweek 3 gets underway in some style: on paper, the early kick-off at White Hart Lane has the makings of a classic. However, much depends on the version of the Liverpool side that turns up.

Jurgen Klopp’s men were spectacular in the season opener against Spurs’ north London rivals, Arsenal. They followed that display a week later with frustrating showing at Burnley, as they slipped to a 2-0 reverse having hogged 83% of the ball.

As for Spurs, they’ve certainly failed to spark to this point. A stalemate with Everton was followed by a stuttering display against Palace, which eventually saw them grind out a 1-0 win.

Harry Kane is back as the lone striker. Philippe Coutinho is fit and on the Liverpool teamsheet. The scene is set for the big Fantasy assets to come to the fore.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Wow that should have been a Liverpool peno.

      Lol

        Really? Vorm got none of the ball.

        1. Rainer

          Get the sleep out of your eye

        2. Postman Ty
          • 11 Years

          vorm has been on point.

    Amazing slide, Mane even got a touch and Vorm still got the ball.

  3. Rainer

    Said it during the week too, Mane makes this Pool team click. Only thing is 9m with the forwards this year is very steep. If Coutinho keeps ending up in them goal scoring positions he is the one to have, yes you'll be frustrated every game as well.

    Not convinced by my 2 players in this game so far: Firmino and Lamela. Selling Alli is going to backfire...

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years

      Patience

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Take a hit to get both out ASAP!

  5. Duffo

    1. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Henderson would be, no?

      1. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Don't have a clue

  7. Bushido
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    If only I could afford Kane, Firminho or Mane but life isn't fair 🙁

    1. Bushido
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

  16. Ryan

    Good to see Vorm playing again. Its easy to forget how good he was for Swansea.

  17. Revival

    Vorm's a great keeper.

    Was immense back in the Swansea days.

    1. GREENDREAMS11
      • 16 Years

      agree

  19. Clump
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Vorm the best sweeper in the prem.

    1. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      He's not even the best at Spurs.

    Pep should've signed Vorm for peanuts rather than Bravo.

    He is in Neuer mode today. 😀

    1. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Too good to be sat on a bench, should never have moved to Spurs.

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Agreed.

  21. Jay_
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Good to see Vorm in such form, feels comforting

    • Paganoi
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Vorm bossing it.

    • Moyeschester
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Vorm dominates. Brilliant game by him so far.

    • Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago
