Gameweek 8 comes to its conclusion this evening as Liverpool welcome Man United to Anfield.

Jurgen Klopp’s in-form outfit seek a fifth successive win in the top-flight and could even climb to the summit if they register a victory by a margin of four or more goals.

That’s perhaps unlikely yet, having netted nine times in two matches in front of their own supporters, the Reds will be in buoyant mood tonight.

The likes of Roberto Firmino, Philippe Coutinho and Sadio Mane will be keenly monitored by Fantasy managers as the Merseysiders prepare for a superb upcoming run of fixtures.

For United, the form of Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the main point of concern around these parts.

The big Swede has a single goal in five appearances and has already earned more transfers out than any other forward in the Gameweek.

Another blank and the exodus will surely pick up pace, given that Jose Mourinho then takes his side to former club Chelsea next Sunday – the Blues have chalked up back-to-back shut-outs since the switch to 3-4-3.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Pretty happy with the result, as having no players today 🙂 Could've done with a Can goal to null the ManU defense points, though

  5. Dasher0303

    Who was that person who said that this would be a 0-0 last week???

      I feel he's been robbed of the 3 baps though. He deserves them for that tackle alone.

      1. Az
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        10 years, 21 days ago

        Absolutely. Didn't know he had that kind of tackle in him!

  13. Jay_

    If Clyne holds onto 3 baps, I'm looking at a 300k green arrow, from 380 > 80ish k

  17. YuvalFPL

    1) Is it time to sell Shaw?
    2) Is it time to sell Capoue?
    3) Is Foster > Pickford a good transfer?
    4) Good idea to double up on Walcott and Sanchez?

    any help appreciated
