Saturday’s events conclude at Selhurst Park where Crystal Palace host Jurgen Klopp’s buoyant Liverpool side.

Goals certainly look on the agenda – Palace are yet to keep a clean sheet this season, while Klopp’s defence are without a shut-out on the road in ten away trips.

Christian Benteke will carry the Eagles’ threat against his former club, while Liverpool’s likely benefactors are far more difficult to pin down.

Philippe Coutinho heads into the encounter having earned more than 174,000 transfers in as the most popular target ahead of Gameweek 10.

However, James Milner won’t be featuring on the scoresheet: he misses out having missed training this week with a virus. Alberto Moreno comes in at left-back for the visitors – a potential weak point that will no doubt be targeted by Alan Pardew’s men.

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

    Swansea fans - Is it worth Kingsley > Amat?

    No major moves planned and dont want to have a non-playing defender in the team. How likely is Kingsley to retain starting berth under the new mgmt?

    1. Matamatics
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Not a Swansea move but don't bother doing that. BB getting settled into the row things could change. Naylor was good for Wales and should really be first choice

      1. Matamatics
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Not a Swansea fan*

    2. GreennRed
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Unknown. Bradley bigging up Rangel too.

    3. Kroosin'
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Amat is THE non playing defender.

      1. Vasty Deep
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Yes...I mean Amat out for Kingsley.

    4. Partick Bateman
      10 years, 9 days ago

      We have been playing with a giant hole in our back 4. Bold move to drop 3 of the back 4 but shake up was needed. Would wait a week or two.

  2. Delhidynamo

    Tekkers assist under consideration?

    1. Valar(Keith)

    Walker owners what you doing? Fixtures toughening up, I'm thinking of ousting... Maybe for Lovren?

    1. Slam
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Lol, have you seen his performance today?
      Absolutely dreadful

      1. Matamatics
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Not sure thinking of sticking for now, or moving him on for a Soton asset

      2. Evasivo
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Who Walker or Lovren? Explain

        1. Slam
          10 years, 9 days ago

          Lovren, at fault for both goals.

          1. Evasivo
            10 years, 9 days ago

            Then scored one lol

        2. Slam
          10 years, 9 days ago

            Is he fit now?

  5. Zeeco
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Best 6.8 midfielder,was thinking of Allen or chadli

    1. Coaly
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Chad or Redmond

  7. The Poacher AJ
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Grant, Pickford
    Mustafi, Verth, Holebas, Smith, Pieters
    Sanchez, Firmino, Son, Redmon, Allen
    Kun, Lukaku, Wilson

    I have exact cash to do Son > Coutinho

    Should I pull the trigger to double up LIV mids, or do you have any other suggestions. (Can take -4 hit)

    1. bojack
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Exact same first four mids here. Thinking Son -> Cout.

    2. Styles_X
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Double up. Cout looks amazing

  8. PvA
    10 years, 9 days ago

    I backed Coutinho since day 1

    1. THE Wild Rover
      10 years, 9 days ago

      And Ibra

      many upvotes?
      people calling you the best?
      Congrats

      1. PvA
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Nope, you're the one looking for upvotes by replying to me in that way.

        There are a group of like 10 who just sit on here and upvote any comment that is in anyway negative towards me. Pretty ad when you think about it.

        1. PvA

          Pretty sad*

          Think you bring it on yourself to be honest.

        3. RoysCallerAnne

          But you're a knob, so it's quite understandable.

    4. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Maverick.

      1. PvA
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Agreed, considering everyone was on Firmino's stick on here

        1. Smurf
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          10 years, 9 days ago

          Until the season has progressed before the season started there was a lot more reason why a non casual would pick Firm over Cout. This is the first season Cout has had as much involvement, consistency and goal threat as he has. Some would say... you got lucky.

  9. 42towels
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Was terrified as a Sanchez non-owner after the first game.

    Now feeling like I really don't need to get him. Anybody else in the same club?

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Why what's changed?

      1. 42towels
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Well I was not convinced by his value, so didn't get him in. Now with more confidence in Aguero(c), Liv mids, don't think I need sanchez now for captaincy.

        1. Smurf
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          10 years, 9 days ago

          Ok. Not sure how the Liverpool mods have changed since this morning.

    2. Evasivo
      10 years, 9 days ago

      I'm a non owner and would've loved him over the last 3. But now isn't the time to bring him in imo. How did kdb look today?

      1. 42towels
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Didn't see him play a lot, was busy cursing Heaton for keeping Utd out. 🙁

    3. Vasty Deep
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      ?? Who do you replace him with? Giroud back is good news for sanchez. Walvott may struggle to come back....

      1. 42towels
        10 years, 9 days ago

        I don't have him. Could afford him with the Ibra downgrade, but no rush I think.

      2. Champione
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Giroud back is usually better news for Özil rather than Sanchez

        1. 42towels
          10 years, 9 days ago

          This too. Ozil might tempt me soon.

  10. The Red Devil
    10 years, 9 days ago

    City Game & 1st half of this game has ensured my next FT is an easy

    sterling to coutinho

  11. sminkypinky
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Son + Stuani -> Cout + Austin for a hit might pay off in the long run...

    1. Mr. Blonde

      Definitely

  12. FALCAO & MOU

  15. bojack

    Didn't want to get Coutinho yet but don't want to miss another rise.

  16. Chucky

  19. Pompel

    Just following up on Heaton discussion on previous page - looks like he's rising tomorrow, so might have to do an early transfer

  20. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 9 days ago

    There should be a chip where you get double the points for your CV also! Sanchez© and Coutinho(vc) would be awesome.

    1. Kroosin'
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Would be better than the AOA. I think there was a discussion over that as a hot topic here.

  21. NATSTER
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Any good 4.5 or below MF ?

    1. Matamatics
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      No is the short answer

    2. Valar(Keith)
      10 years, 9 days ago

      None. Watmore looks a good bet though at a slightly higher price

    3. GreennRed
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Good ?

      Ledley, Marney

    4. andymck

      How much do you really want from someone who you'll never play though

    5. NATSTER
      10 years, 9 days ago

      I probably asked the wrong question then.

  22. HuttonDressedasLahm

    Firmino Milner double up working wonders 🙄

  23. SALVA

    Best bench fodder 4.3 or less?

    1. Twisted Saltergater

      Hoijberg?

  24. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Anyone getting moreno in?

    1. Matamatics
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      How long is Milner out for

    2. GreennRed
      10 years, 9 days ago

      No chance on any Pool defender.

    3. Styles_X
      10 years, 9 days ago

      No

  25. Rolls-Royce
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Coutinho %age ownership in top 10K?

    1. Bubz
      10 years, 9 days ago

      51%

  26. Our Tiny Windows
    10 years, 9 days ago

    I have 2FT and like to use them each fortnight on match day. But I feel locked in to my team. Nothing obvious to change jumps out at me. Can anyone see anything?

    Foster Pick
    Jagielka Stones Evans Amat Kingsley
    Sanchez Firmino Walcott Allen Capoue
    Aguero Costa Lukaku

    Be brutal.

    2. Shultan

      Picked the wrong liverpool mid at the beginning of the season! Coutinho only one worth having with this system.

        False nine = false hope

  28. tisza

    both teams to score 2nd half 9/4 - can't be bad!!

  29. Bolivian Seaman

    We haven't even had a penalty yet

  30. Belsunz
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Just saw the first WBA goal. Awful goalkeeping by Karius again. No way he is better than Mignolet...

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

      WBA didn't score today

    2. Belsunz

      CPA obviously.
