A hugely frustating Saturday comes to its conclusion as Liverpool entertain West Bromwich Albion at Anfield.

The Reds’ run of four straight wins was halted by a dogged Man United display on Monday evening, though on the positive side, Jurgen Klopp’s side chalked up a first clean sheet of the season ahead of some very kind looking fixtures.

Bearing in mind that the Baggies have a single clean sheet in seven, owners of the likes of Philippe Coutinho, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Adam Lallana will be optimistic of returns tonight. The latter returns to the starting line-up in Jurgen Klopp’s only change from the side that were frustrated by the Red Devils.

Four goals and two assists in five appearances makes Nacer Chadli the visitors’ danger man, whilst Ben Foster owners will be expecting a save point or two at least as he looks to repel the Reds’ attack.

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

    I need to start captaining Lukaku more. The man keeps getting (some) points

    1. Alnair
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Next week is as good a time as any

  2. sergioaguero67

    9 years, 9 months ago

    Mane has a goal and assist
    Coutinho has a goal only

    How does Coutinho get the 3 points?

    1. Alnair
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      BPS magnet.

    2. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years

      Winning goal

      Weird. Mane owner watching the game. Mane more influential IMO.

      81 touches, lots of shots on target, lots of potential assists that were wasted..

    5. the axolotl
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      because other things are involved. obviously.

  3. Mainoo Magic

    40 with kun to play, not great but those McCauley points of the bench are a big bonus.

  4. RoysCallerAnne

    That McAuley goal was 9 point painful for me. Karius, Lovren, Firmino.

    -4 incoming, I need to go double LIV mid instead of double LIV defence. *logging off for a sulk.

    1. Alnair
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Wow, you bought in 2 Liv mids? Tbh, it would be more sick if something like that actually paid off 😀

      1. Alnair
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Liv defenders*

    Hands up if you would rather have 0 points than be one of these attention seeking insecure posters that post ok scores with a sad face and ask if it is decent? 🙂

    1. George Sillett
      • 10 Years

      Bang on Worzel.

    6. Sylas

    4. Worzel Gummidge
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Decent. Would be better if you didn't blow your bench boost and triple captain load.

      1. Oven Glover
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Can't change that now, right? I seem to be doing alright anyways...

    5. Gazza2000

    6. Arteta

      Average gameweek which would be a lot better if I could change my captain and 2 players.

    7. Too Mane Men

        Granny's on the comeback too 🙂

          • 17 Years

          There's a lot of choice this season and a lot of captaincy choice.

    2. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Puncheon is coming back to haunt him

  10. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Ville Ronke benched Pieters and McAuley. Got lucky with Amat no show so Pieters comes in

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Swansea got a clean sheet as well so it's not that lucky

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah they got a CS because Amat didn't play.

    2. GHB
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Wouldn't say lucky when Swansea didn't concede

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        15 conceded in the last 7 where Amat played 90 minutes. How convenient they finally get a CS when Amat doesn't play

      2. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Besides, I said "no show". No show = 0 minutes played. I was more referring to the fact that Swans only made 1 change, Amat could easily have gotten a cameo in added time.

        1. GHB
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Why would they have brought him on in added time at 0-0, strange comment.

          He had points off his bench - the idea of the game in my eyes!

    3. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Swansea might have conceded with Amat playing, in fact that's been the story of their season.

    4. Still Unsure
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I did the same. Played Amat with McAuley first sub.
      Them the breaks

  11. Del Monte
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Baines to Van Dijk, Clyne or Fuchs?

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Fuchs after Spurs

    2. Saïss Doesn't Mat…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      morgan after spurs

  12. Pedram
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Damn McAuley was my third sub.

  13. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    2 bonus points for Sadio?

  14. EmreCan Hustle
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Messi abused Valencia fans... can the Spanish FA take any action?

    Mascherano was banned in 2015.

    1. Sponge-worthy
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      What did the cocky kid do?

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Roughly translates to Sons of b*****!

        But Valencia fans threw bottles at Neymar and Suarez.

        1. Sponge-worthy
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Never liked messi, or Barcelona for that matter. But what the hell are the idiots thinking, throwing bottles at people. F****** c****!

    2. My Name Is Prince
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      How?

    3. John Nerdelbaum
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      what happened?

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Valencia fans threw bottles at Neymar and Suarez. Messi abused them in retaliation.

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

          I wouldn't really classify it as abuse. They are SOBs.

  15. Bellybig
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    I had 3-4-3 with Amat and Collins as the only players not playing.

    Bench order: Capoue, Smith, McAuley

    Do I get Smith and McAuley as subs, considering that Capoue is unused?

    1. the axolotl
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      yes. high 5! exactly same as me except i have holebas and not smith.

      1. Bellybig
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        thanks. that ease my mind a little. i created an account just to ask this. lol

  16. Jimmy Boy
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Time to chop Aguero if he doesn't start tomorrow? Reportedly Pep has told him 'You can leave if you want to'

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      If you want

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I think you have to. SPread the funds and get KDB in midfield

    3. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      No he said "If Sergio decides to leave it will be his decision." As part of a speech were he said Aguero and Kompany are part of his plans

      1. mad_beer ✅
        • 11 Years

        Stop posting facts. The next thing you know people might take your advice. 🙂

      Definitely.

  28. Hybrid.power

    I wish Watford weren't playing Hull next week. I want to drop Capoue and Deeney so badly

    1. Castiel
      • 17 Years

      Alternatively great stuff that they're playing Hull

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years

      Holebas the one.

  29. Pompel
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Evening all!

    Haven't watched the matches, but at least it's apparent that Antonio needs to go for a Liverpool mid. Is it still a question of "take your pick", so Couthino would be as good as Firmino or Mané? Could do :

    Antonio + Coleman -> Couthino + Smith for freee, 0.0 left

    What do you think, go ahead with it?

    Cheers!
