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.

      1. Kermit Special
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I think i'm regretting not captaining Sanchez instead. Who knows?

        1. M.A.G
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Same here 😀 hope it turns out well

  2. bojack

    Benteke's going to have to go I think..

    1. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yep. Thinking same

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

    3. Somalion
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Gone for Austin I reckon.

      Terrible decision to bring him in on my behalf.

    4. M.A.G
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Thinking the same

  3. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Brought Mane in for a hit this gameweek, painful.

    1. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Could be a great long term move.

    2. M.A.G
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I Know that feel bro

    3. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Couldve easily had a haul.

      Him and coutinho shouldve both outscored sanchez and kun tbh. So many wasted chances.

  4. TLF
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone know why Valencia didn't play? Was it a simple case of being dropped...

    1. WDT
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Broken arm I heard

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Broken arm

    4. Fergietime

    5. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

  5. sergioaguero67
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    No injury danger for Coutinho right?
    Missed the match sadly
    I am going to ship him in before his price rise tonight.
    Safe?

    Please help.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He can still get injured.

    2. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      the stadium roof may fall on him

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

    50 with Pieters, Antonio, Austin and Lukaku (C). I'll gladly accept 100 points if you offer me that right now

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      60 might be closer.sorry

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

        Come on you can do better than that. 99?

        1. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Okay I'll raise you up to 68 but that's my final offer.
          12 2 2 2

    2. Speédy

    I've always loved Liverpool players

    1. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I want a 3rd

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Already got my fill.

        Next thing to worry about is who to get in for Ibra

        1. JAC THE CAT
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          You need to ditch him Andy

          Free yourself

          1. andy85wsm
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah but no-one really takes my fancy to bring in.

            I guess it has to be Lukaku or Costa....maybe even Giroud.

            1. JAC THE CAT
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              My pick would be Lukaku

      2. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I have 3 but left lovern on the bench.firm and cout worked though.

      3. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        not a 2.1?

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

      Just a pity you love United FPL assets more 😛

  8. cheekumz
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I know its not wise and i generally hate early transfers but really looking to build value atm... and currently have quite a lead in all my ML's and barring any midweek injuries have nothing pressing.

    Thinking about Capoue out right now to capitalise on a price rise... Gundogan or Redmond?

    Foster (Pick)
    Kosc Vert Holebas (Kingsley Love)
    Sanchez Firmino Coutinho Allen (Capoue)
    Kun Lukaku Deeney

    Suppose I could take out Deeney but no idea who id take in.

  9. borat
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    is holebas on 1 bp

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      1. Flynny
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I think he is....

      2. borat
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        think his bap is 25 tied third with gomes

    2. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Just misses out

      1. Flynny
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Ok....maybe not....

    3. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Will it be given though? Two players on 2 baps and two on 1 bap.

      1. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        No its 3 then 2 and 2.

      2. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

  10. Swan - Villa Proud

    Sell Walker or Clyne for Fuchs?

    1. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'm considering bringing Fuchs in, not sure I'd get rid of either of those 2 though...you considering Southampton defence at all ? I'm thinking next week may be a good time to being VVD on board

  11. Brap.
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Does

    Snod -> Gundogan

    and

    Cap -> Matic

    accurately capture the zeitgeist?

  12. Baked baines
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Henderson on more bps than Coutinho!!!
    This surly has to change!! How can Coutinho on have 1 bps after that performance!!

  13. Jabba12
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    74 points this week but so many issues. Who do I get rid of first? Amat valencia snodgrass walcott lallana benteke all trolling me

    1. InSaneMan-e
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Similar to me!
      Amat is 4.0 so keeping tbh
      Valencia and Wally i've posted below, no idea how long they're out for
      As for Benteke, think Benteke-->Austin coming up soon

  14. Champione
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Lukaku captainers; how many points do you have now (post baps). 62 here. Really need Lukaku to step up tomorrow!

    1. Champione
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      ...with only Lukaku left

    2. Le _ Professeur
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      35 .. but I still have Redmond + Martina + Adrian + Pieters to go as well

      1. Champione
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        lots of football to be played for your team, so anything can happen

    3. Kermit Special
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      40 something. Me too fellow brother

    4. M.A.G
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      56(-4)
      + Pieters
      and Amat if he plays otherwise i'll have Evans (0)

    5. Champione
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers guys, fingers crossed for a haul tomorrow 🙂

  15. ShaunGoater123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    A) should I get firmino or mane for
    Walcott?

    B) who to replace snodgrass with? Have either 5.6 or 6.0 depending on the first question

    Thanks,

    1. Carlton P
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino + redmond

      1. ShaunGoater123
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Wil have Austin in for benteke so not sure about doubling up on saints

    2. Kermit Special
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino, he seems to be at the center of things in attack. Mane looks wasteful.

  16. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Looking to bring a Leicester defender in with those sweet fixtures coming up.

    Is Fuchs worth the extra 0.4 or should I get Morgan for 5.0 and save the cash?

    1. Brap.
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Probably Fuchs

      They're both great at home

      Fuchs got good threat though

    2. Boydinho
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      As always, depends on what you do with the cash.

  17. Chucky
    • 12 Years

    Have Sanchez and Kun but captained Costa 🙁 46 with Allen Payet (C)osta and Pieters to go.Anyone doing worse? 🙁

    And who would be your priority in getting rid

  24. camarozz

      Lol, hard to say.

    3. C_G

    Was going to do Wally to Coutinho for -4 this morning but held off. With Capoue's 3-pointer off the bench I've only lost out on 2 points so no real damage done.

    Mind you will probably do the transfer this week - 'pool's fixtures just too good and Coutinho is in great form

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I did Wally to Arnie myself, minus 4. Have coutinho and firm. We did well, jimmers.

    2. Pompel
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I also held off - with de Roon now show, looking forward to Koné 0 pointer from the bench ....

  26. Z
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Sanchez - Walcott - Firmino - Coutinho (de Roon)
    Lukaku - Deeney - Aguero

    Any need to change my main front 7?

    1. Boydinho
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Im looking on Austin for Deeney myself

    2. Carlton P
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Just deeney > Austin I reckon

    3. Kermit Special
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Remove Wally + de roon. Consider costa as a long term option in strike. Consider mane/de bruyne and Gundo as well

        Who do you have in defence? It looks like you must have spent quite a lot there, anyone you can downgrade?

      Might sell sterling to Gundogan , for the increase in value if nothing else

      Who should I ditch for a Leicester defender?

      A - Vertonhgen (tough games)
