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.

  2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Benteke has been awful

    1. Richd
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Hardly awful.

      Held the ball up, got some shots on target.

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Not done enough, needs to want the ball more

        Hid away on his own up top

        1. Richd
          10 years, 9 days ago

          Well the formation is hardly his fault.

          Blame Pardew?

        1. FPL Puppy
          10 years, 9 days ago

          No. It's been the best week this season for me. But I don't like to gloat. Especially if there are people here that had a bad week, it's like adding salt to their wound.

          70 (pre-baps) with Coleman, Allen and Trollkaku to go

          1. Eskimooo

              Based on your grav, I'm guessing you would like the big Troll to blank tomorrow? 😆

              1. Eskimooo
                10 years, 9 days ago

                I own him and yes I'd absolutely love a blank buddy ! Fingers crossed .

          Williams, Sigurdson and Lukaku

          1. FPL Puppy

            Mine also. It's been a really good week.

            Coleman, Allen and Lukaku to go. Hoping for atleast 1 goal and bps from the big Troll. 🙂 A CS from EVE would be a nice bonus for both of us!

            1. JAC THE CAT
              10 years, 9 days ago

  5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Hendo 2 baps

  6. Jake Donahue
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 9 days ago

    If FPL reclassified positions now do you think Sanchez and firmino would be changed to strikers?

    1. Flynny
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Firmino defo

    2. @SirAustinDangerPowers
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Sanchez yes.
      Firmino probably still no.

    3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Both yes

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Both forwards likely.

    5. Somalion
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Firm should've been reclassified this season given how much he played as a forward last year.

      Will have to be changed next season should this be the permanent Pool line up.

      Alexis a bit trickier because when someone like Giroud is available he does wind up as a mid more often. Would come down to minutes played in both positions.

      1. Eskimooo
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Nope

    6. AndyCook
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Sanchez I'd have as a forward anyway and his price would probably be less

  7. Bubz
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Liverpool mid holy trinity anyone?

    1. FPL Puppy
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Risky, especially if they blank.

    2. Baines on Toast...
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      I have been there for four weeks. Might ship Firm for KDB now tho.

    3. Tomlette Greggs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      got em.

      Had Mane + Firmino for the last 4 gameweeks. Brought in Coutinho this gameweek (10). 3-5-2.

      1. Bubz
        10 years, 9 days ago

        I very nearly did Sterling to Cout this week. Annoyed I didnt 🙁

    4. The 12th Man
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Kendall,Harvey,Ball.

      Oh sorry wrong half of Merseyside.

    5. The 12th Man
      10 years, 9 days ago

      2 enough for me.

  8. M.A.G
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Didn't watch the match , how did Benteke look ?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Nothing special.

    2. Flynny
      10 years, 9 days ago

      I was not impressed

      Either him or deeney leaving my team this week for Austin....

    3. Jason Bourne
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Decent, should've had a penalty

      1. Eskimooo
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Are you alright ?

    4. Cok3y5murf
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Probably selling him this week

    5. M.A.G
      10 years, 9 days ago

      So it's time to ship him out ?

    6. M.A.G
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Thanks For replying mates 😀

  9. Royal5
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Is Auston cheaper than Deeney?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      10 years, 9 days ago

      By half a million.

      1. Royal5
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Thanks

    2. Carlton P
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Is this a real question?

    3. bojack

      Yes.

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

    So glad I didn't get drunk and do something stupid like Aguero>Ibra

    1. HuttonDressedasLahm
      10 years, 9 days ago

      I actually considered that!!

  11. Somalion
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Benteke before I bought him

    3 goals in 4 games

    After I buy him

    0 goals in 3 games and a missed pen

    😎

  12. Jet5605
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Best 5.0 or less defender for the next few weeks? Planning to ship Ashley Williams

    Back 5 of Williams - Holebas - Pieters - Amat - Vertonghen

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

      Francis of BOU has 2 good fixtures coming up. Looked good defensively, barring this gameweek.

    2. AndyCook
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Bournemouth options, Morgan, Stones, Cedric who comes back next week

  13. tm245
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Captaining your only player not to get returns is unenjoyable when it's a high scoring day.

    1. Eskimooo
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Current score ? Who did you give armband too ?!

    2. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      same http://i.imgur.com/Di4xi2d.png

      1. Eskimooo
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Captaining ighalo when you have Sanchez and ageuro ........

  14. Pie-o-My
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Does the following seem a decent shout. 2 fts and have exact money for it

    Theo+Williams to Coutinho+Pieters

    Gives me a front seven of

    Sanchez lallana coutinho redmond
    Aguero costa Wilson

    Wanting a double on Liverpool and this way I get to keep sanchez as well.

    1. AndyCook
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Don't like Lallana but hard to address that

  15. binny_jai
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Gameweek 11
    Any good replacement for ,
    Son + clyne ?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Bank?

      1. binny_jai
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Nothing in bank

    2. AndyCook
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Fuchs better than Clyne, not much can be done with 7.5 M in midfield though.. need at least 8.5 really

  16. EmreCan Hustle
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Am I the only one with Payet left? Could be a great differential for me 🙂

    1. Pie-o-My
      10 years, 9 days ago

      I'd love to get him in just can't find the space or funds. Really good differential just now.

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Hope he delivers tomorrow.

    2. Jake Donahue
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      I have him, not sure how much longer though

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        10 years, 9 days ago

        2 GWs max it seems. Then I'll get Cout or Mahrez.

    3. JAC THE CAT
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Could be gold

    4. Carlton P
      10 years, 9 days ago

      I shipped, did Payet + snoddy > Coutinho + siggy
      Hoping Payet blanks
      Is he a season keeper for you do you think?
      One of reason I shipped was because I want ayew when fixtures ease

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        10 years, 9 days ago

        It'll be a while before fixtures ease again.

  17. Stats Don\'t Lie
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Son, sterling, tekkers > austin, gundogan, sanchez (-8) is tempting

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

      Sound moves. Unsure about Gundogan but I understand the price is tempting, and good fixtures. Probably worth a gamble.

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

        - though de Bruyne has better fixtures than Sanchez going ahead. Could consider him instead,

    2. AndyCook
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Son and Tekkers to Austin and Coutinho/Firmino? That's basically what I've done but with Deeney. Sterling worth keeping I think and Gundogan not profiling historically

  18. Bubz
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Considering I don't own Sanchez or Coutinho I'm very happy with 60 points from today. I love you Kun, I will never doubt you again.

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Great score

    2. Hurricane Gilbert
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Nice one Bubz. Nervous day for Lukaku captainers tomorrow...

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Not if you already have over 50

  19. Hurricane Gilbert
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Cedric should be back next week, right?

    I have the exact funds for these moves:
    Cech > Heaton
    Baines > Cedric
    Walcott > KdB

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Good moves

    2. Pie-o-My
      10 years, 9 days ago

      -4? Looks ok for that

      1. Hurricane Gilbert
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Yes a -4 for these moves

    3. Tomlette Greggs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 9 days ago

      looks alright to me.

  20. rocky7st
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Need to lose Son and either Deeney or Diomande 3-5-2 setup atm
    a) Son + Deeney > Redmond/Chadli + Austin
    b) Son + Diomande > Gundogan + Austin
    c) Son + Deeney + Vertonghen > Costa/Lukaka + Redmond + Nyom

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      10 years, 9 days ago

      A/C

  21. Styles_X
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Sanchez to KdB looking at fixtures a good transfer?
    Have Walcott for arsenal cover

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      10 years, 9 days ago

      No

    2. Speédy
      10 years, 9 days ago

      walcott rotation risk now,keep alexis get sterling for wally

    3. Sánchez
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Sanchez is captainable
      If you have kun, kdb isn't

    4. GREENDREAMS11
      10 years, 9 days ago

      yes, a decent transfer. Sanchez wont play Sunderland every week, Arsenal fixtures stiffening while Citys are easing up. Also if Giroud is coming back may have an impact on Sanchez.

  22. Speédy
    10 years, 9 days ago

    how about getting giroud in ????

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Not guaranteed to start.

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Could be a great transfer in

  23. F4L
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Son to who, for 7.6 mil?

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

      Lallana

  24. Annie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Rank 1.7m. San(c)hez, Aguero, Coutinho, Firmino, CS x 2. Finally some luck

  25. Sánchez
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Lovren Fiirmino Coutinho owner here
    Love Liverpool now

  26. Everyday im Schneiderlin
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Doing mane to firmino
    Leaves me with exact funds to do allen to gundongam

    Good move or bad ?
    Already have coutino

    1. Sánchez
      10 years, 9 days ago

      Both upgrades imo

      1. Everyday im Schneiderlin
        10 years, 9 days ago

        Cheers do u think gundongam will keep his place ?

  27. Spg76
    10 years, 9 days ago

    I love having Coutinho in my team. What a gem of a player.

  28. WDT
    10 years, 9 days ago

    As a Mane captainer, that was a brutal watch. Coutinho softened the blow though..

  29. Mainoo Magic
    10 years, 9 days ago

    I'm currently on 50 after bps with lukaku (c) and amat to play. Seems below par on here, anyone know what the average is?

      2. GREENDREAMS11
        10 years, 9 days ago

        wow, thought it would be much higher, i suppose a few still have Lukaku and Chelsea players still to come though.

  30. Dušan Citizen
    10 years, 9 days ago

    Ilkay Gundogan = £20m. Paul Pogba's agent = £21m

    1. Somalion
      10 years, 9 days ago

      If you fancy Pogba that much I'll try and give him your number.
