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.

        nothing to do all game and then pulls that off. He's top class.

  2. Krul Runnings
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Can goal there would've been beyond perfect

  3. Revival

    10 years, 21 days ago

    At least that rids of us Sturridge...now push forward Coutinho

    Absolutely useless performance from Sturridge

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Didn't get much service to be fair

    2. THE Wild Rover
      10 years, 21 days ago

      They've all been terrible. Formation fail

  6. Kaneyonero
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Sturridge CS banked

  7. THE Wild Rover
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Coutinho already higher than he's been all game 😎

    1. SW6
      10 years, 21 days ago

      What's he taken?

  8. Defcons are for Kinnear

    What exactly has Borinoh contributed to football other than killing the enjoyment in big game. So many big games ruined by his negative tactics. The sooner he leaves the game the better

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      10 years, 21 days ago

      By that logic West Brom should disband immediately

      1. Pochecinno
        10 years, 21 days ago

        You won't hear me complaining

    2. Belsunz
      10 years, 21 days ago

      A yesterday's man...

    3. BIG TONES
      10 years, 21 days ago

      His presence always adds impetus to big fixtures. His defensive football style maybe symbolizes his era which is currently ending in favour of the pressing style imo

  9. Syd.
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Mike Dean would've give a penalty for that

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Love Mike Dean, reliable for awarding penalties

    2. Bazzalona
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Mike Dean would give one for a foul on the halfway line

  10. Jay_
    10 years, 21 days ago

    more from Liverpool since Sturridge has gone off than we've seen all game with him in the team

  16. Krul Runnings
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Really don't want any CS here.

    Plus, I want some excitement!

  17. Syd.
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Sturridge goes off and suddenly Liverpool look threatening

    1. Somalion
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Funny that, given Sturridge is the best striker to ever live and not remotely over hyped.

  18. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    10 years, 21 days ago

    No way I'm keeping that Valencia WC.

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee

  22. BIG TONES
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Why is Lallana not starting? He's beasting it

    1. Danno - Emre Canada
      10 years, 21 days ago

      Was injured

      1. BIG TONES
        10 years, 21 days ago

        Ah, had no idea. Thank you

  23. Bubz
    10 years, 21 days ago

    The difference is night and day now that Lallana has come on and Firmino is up top

  24. The Big Fella
    10 years, 21 days ago

    So everybody that still has Ibra is selling him as we speak then?

    1. Ibracadabra
      10 years, 21 days ago

      basically... but Costa on 4YC and already have Lukaku/Aguero so tough one...

      1. The Big Fella
        10 years, 21 days ago

        I'd go for Costa if I were you. He will only miss one match. I have Aguero and will Diomande. Will sell Ibra for Austin.

  25. Kaneyonero
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Cmon Bobby Son

  26. TheShinKicker
    10 years, 21 days ago

    Fellaini can't even win a header against Coutinho on the edge of his own box, what a waste of space
