The final match of Gameweek 15 sees Liverpool welcome West Ham United to Anfield in the 4.30pm kick-off.

Both Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino are highly fancied against a Hammers defence that shipped five at home to Arsenal last weekend.

Mane has served up points in five of his six home outings, whilst Firmino will be looking to banish a three-match barren run and return to the form that has already seen him register 15 points in front of his own supporters on two occasions.

Divock Origi looks to score for the fourth successive match in all competitions to strengthen his claim as a mid-price festive frontman.

West Ham, meanwhile, have home encounters with Burnley and Hull followed by a trip to Swansea in the upcoming three Gameweeks.

We’ll be looking for signs of form from Dimitri Payet and the fit-again Michail Antonio, then, while big Andy Carroll is named amongst the subs against his former club, having emerged from the bench to net the Hammers’ consolation against Arsenal last time out.

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

    get out of my team firmino

  2. camarozz
    • 11 Years

    Firmino has very white teeth.

    1. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      yet he got a yellow. seems legit.

  3. Willber

    9 years, 2 months ago

    Walcott or Lallana?

    Walcott would leave me with double arsenal (have Sanchez) but no Liverpool. Arsenal have smashing fixtures coming up. Is it worth doubling up at the risk of no liv?

    That Mane assist staying I guess then?

    1. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

    Wish I could pay an expert to tell me what to do with my team it's shocking

    1. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      You want my account number?

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Stick with it. Chopping and changing every week stuffs you over. No point chasing last week's points.

      1. sminkypinky
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Meh... sometimes its the right thing to do though.

  6. drughi

    Last 5 gameweeks has been terrible, firmino get lost

    1. Willber
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'm the same. He's out

  7. Worzel Gummidge
      9 years, 2 months ago

      0.2 short for Payet so Alli it is.

      1. sminkypinky
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I would rethink Worz. Great fixs. Seemed invisible today.

        1. Worzel Gummidge
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Man U away is hardly an easy fixture tbf

            1. sminkypinky
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              Agree. Meant great after today. Imo Son and Eriksen looked livelier.

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

          If money was no object, you'd get Payet? Think that's my move

      2. Gooner97
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Do you think is worth getting Payet?

        1. Worzel Gummidge
            9 years, 2 months ago

            I would but 0.2 short so Alli coming in. I could get Payet if I didn't get Origi in but want Origi until Cout returns.

            1. Gooner97
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              Hammers fixtures are great, but I don't trust their form plus I'd rather get Siggy, because i also have 2 Spurs already.

            2. sminkypinky
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              I'm probably getting Origi too unless Andy goes nuts here.

        2. Hurricane Gilbert
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Which Duo?

          A) Payet & A Smith
          B) Antonio & Bellerin
          C) Son & Bellerin
          D) Eriksen/Alli and Daniels

        3. 404_FC
          • 10 Years

          i think i will ditch firmino to mane

          yay or nay

          1. S.Agueroooooo

          9 years, 2 months ago

          So we are all doing Firmino to Payet then 🙂

          Now Micky is not an option

          1. The Overthinker
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            😀 merry go round

            Micky would be back only for boxing day..

          3. Numb
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Payet scored last

        7. JayBomb
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Pick 1 to bring in for Firmino

          A Eriksen
          B Alli

          Thanks?

          1. aleksios
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Erik

          2. The Overthinker
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Eriksen

          3. Leaf
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Alli either has no form or last was just a lucky run
            Either way Eriksen seems better

        8. aleksios
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Thinking of doing Austin and Lovren to Liorente and Toby for -4 go for it?

          1. Weasel Boy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Yeah might do something similar myself

            1. aleksios
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              Thanks

          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          I actually think that was quite obviously a Mane assist. It's just a shame FPL don't just issue more, and be consistent with it. They rule some assists out for very little. Bit of a luck element to me.

        10. Numb
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          I thought the ScoutCast said that Liverpool midfield is a lottery so you might as well keep whoever you've got?

          1. Sims
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Yeah that's why I'm stuck with coutinho

            Bad advice

            1. Numb
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              I think there are limits to that advice

        11. Weasel Boy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          How did Mane get the second assist? Randolph touched it before Origi knocked it in.

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

            Will be taken

          2. Oddjobleff
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Same as a spilled shot I guess. They're always given as assists

        12. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Firmino -> Payet & Nacho -> Origi for -4 yes or no?

          1. diesel001
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            No. Nacho to Origi only.

        13. More Tragic
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Replacing Coutinho with Firmino instead of Mane.

          Major fail.

        14. tm245
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Everyone hating on Firmino, I'm thinking of tripling up him, Mane, Origi.

          1. fedolefan
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            With Boro and Everton away?

        15. Kermit Special
          • 9 Years

          Can't believe ppl are forgetting ozil and his fixtures. Unbelievable

          1. JustPark
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            shhh!

        16. Lone Wolf FPL
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Nacho -> Origi may be the smartest move now, right?

          1. Sims
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Yes

          2. Garfield1001
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Smartest move? Why did you even get Nacho? For one game?

        17. Speédy
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Who is playing central in the why attack,antonio or ayew???

          1. Hi I'm Jose
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            The only thing Im sure of is that Randolph plays keeper. West Ham are so messy, you have to look for Antonio, Ayew, Lanzini where to find them.

        18. kalmoffit
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Firmino goes from essential to useless during the last page
