Saturdays’s events conclude at Anfield when Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool will host champions Leicester City.

The big teamsheet news is that Klopp has made the decision to keep Philippe Coutinho on the bench, despite flying him back early from international duty with Brazil. That allows Daniel Sturridge to earn a second start of the season, whilst Lucas has to come into to central defence with Dejan Lovren ruled out with an injury sustained in training.

Claudio Ranieri’s Leicester City are unchanged as they bid to build on their 2-1 win over Swansea City in Gameweek 3. There’s no place on the bench for new signing Islam Slimani.

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

    How is Vardy looking.
    Heard Liverpool should have scored 6-8 goals. Who's playing better in their midfield?

    1. PvA
      10 years, 1 month ago

      All their midfield is playing well

      Doesn't give many answers

      Even Coutinho is not playing, he is still up for consideration

    2. Dark Wolf
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Mane is playing really well

  2. Jafooli
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Mahrez has been anonymous....

    1. Syd.
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I wouldn't know as I haven't seen him

    2. Sánchez
      10 years, 1 month ago

      As has what's his name

    Been out all day. Typical Eriksen sell him and returns two assists. I had this season before last!

    1. Syd.

    thoughts? a hit worth it to do redmond + gray >> antonio + benteke (-4)?

    foster
    valencia stones souare --- friend pieters
    hazard ozil redmond firmino -- capoue
    ibra kaku gray

    Other options
    A: gray >> benteke...no hit
    B: redmond >> antonio...even tho redmond has a good fix
    C: pieters (price drop tonight) + gray >> baines + benteke (-4)

    1. Bellerinmondo
      10 years, 1 month ago

      yay, less people getting capoue points 🙂

      1. Fred54
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Oh yeah!!!!

      2. Old Man

        fewer please, fewer.

  7. Revival

    Think if one getting a Liverpool mid then patience is key, points are going to be spread around each week

    1. Rainer
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Sense!

  8. Rainer
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Coutinho ON - WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  9. Jafooli
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Coutinho coming on for some Capoue blocking....

  10. devils advocate
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Coutinho about to break hearts everywhere, lol.

  11. Bolivian Seaman
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Yay 1 point for coutinho. Stones won't come on for 2

  12. Slam
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Oh my goodness, the first half was so good.

    1. Slam
      10 years, 1 month ago

      And then this sh*t happened 🙁

      1. Slam
        10 years, 1 month ago

        I'm talking the 3pm games btw

  13. PvA
    10 years, 1 month ago

    What a Muppet Klopp is

    1. Jafooli
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Capoue on the bench?

      1. PvA
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Ye

  14. Bellerinmondo
    10 years, 1 month ago

    At least Coutinho will likely get 1, I got 0 for Ramirez

    1. PvA
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I would've got a 10+ haul from Capoue if Coutinho stayed on thebench

      1. Bellerinmondo
        10 years, 1 month ago

        yup, me too with RamZ

  15. Teddy Brewski
    10 years, 1 month ago

    So no assist for Tadic? How did it differ to Baines's assist last week?

    1. Rainer
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Watch it, they're different!

      1. Freddie Cutecat
        10 years, 1 month ago

        In what way?

        1. Teddy Brewski
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Would like to know this too!?

    2. SamH123
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I would guess Baines went post>keeper>in while Tadic went keeper>post>keeper>in

      very harsh for Tadic owners though

      1. Freddie Cutecat
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Incorrect

        Given saved baines pen before it hit the post

        He got 5 points for the save

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah can't understand this as his freekick hits the bar and then goes in off Cech.

    4. Mark

      It's under review with Opta currently.

      1. Teddy Brewski
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Good to hear!

  16. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Coutinho 🙂

  17. PvA
    10 years, 1 month ago

    You have 20 minutes, Coutinho. You know what to do.

    1. Bellerinmondo
      10 years, 1 month ago

      a few wild long distance shots?

    2. Fred54
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Shots fired....over the bar.

  18. Granville

    Not watching. How is Mahrez playing? He may well be for the chop this week.

    1. Fred54
      10 years, 1 month ago

      We're not even sure he's there apparently.

    2. Bellerinmondo
      10 years, 1 month ago

      due the chop I would say

    3. Rainer
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Chop on!

    4. Bolivian Seaman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      just started coming into the game. a lot of players around him when he gets the ball. he's still good but not last year good, nice fixture next week though

    5. RED PILL
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez has spent most of the game tracking back.

  19. Postman Ty
    10 years, 1 month ago

    As soon as coutinho comes on he takes a 30 yd shot. lol

    1. Fred54
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Its like a wierd form of tourettes.

      Yaya tourettes.

      1. Postman Ty

    How is Vardy playing ?

  21. FFSbet.com
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Ozil or Mane lone term?

    1. Chenku╰☆╮
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I sold ozil today.. so ozil.

      1. FFSbet.com

    Henderson you donkey, would've been Firmino assist.

    1. Bellerinmondo
      10 years, 1 month ago

      story of the first few weeks for Firmino, he's creating a lot of good chances

  24. HurriKane
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Arsenal mids assessed

    Sanchez looked more threatening in 30 mins than Ozil did in the entire match no ?

    I think he is worth the extra 1.5 over Ozil. However Cazorla offers more value by the looks of things

    1. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I have him in, seems to always be involved when fit

    2. tomc990
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I think all three of them played quite well, especially the second half.

      Throughout the season I haven't thought they would run riot, and I expect points to be split between Sanchez, Giroud (as finishers), Ozil and Cazorla (assists/assist of assist)

      TBH, I think the pricing is quite fair given their respective final product.

      The main question is how well your 15 balances i guess. To me, watching Liverpool atm, Mane looks very explosive (8.9)

  25. Camp No No
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Practically all Liverpool midfielders played = more Capoue points stay on bench! 😀

    1. Rainer
      10 years, 1 month ago

      🙂

  26. Gaffa914
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Should I do Townsend to Antonio for free?

    1. Mr. Meeseeks
      10 years, 1 month ago

      yes

    2. Beavis
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

    3. Sánchez
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I did last week

  27. PvA
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Is there another goal in this game?

    1. Rainer
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Not from Coutinho, no.

  28. tm245
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Looking a bit Ivan Drago there.

  29. Slam
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Lol I left after the first half of the Arsenal game and was projected to be at around 250k.

    Came back and now it expects me to be around 850k. What happened 😆

    1. tm245
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I might have lost total points since the 60 minute mark of the afternoon matches.

  30. The Big Fella
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Capoue scored again!! Where does he even play? I thought he was a defensive midfielder? I am gutted I didn't bring in Iheanacho and opted for Benteke at the last minute. He would have been an amazing differential. At least Benteke scored though.

    1. tomc990
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Capoue is playing LCM in a 352.

      It seems he has a licence to break into the box when Watford attack and gets back into shape at defence.
