Dugout Discussion – Everton vs Liverpool

Gameweek 17 delivers one last match for Fantasy managers as Everton entertain Liverpool in the first Merseyside derby of the season.

Adam Lallana arrives at Goodison as the most sought-after target in Fantasy Premier League last week – over 290,000 drafted him in on the back of a 19-point haul at Middlesbrough.

Divock Origi was the number one forward for transfers in ahead of Gameweek 17 – the Liverpool frontman has recovered from a knock and is looking to score for the fifth successive Gameweek.

In terms of FPL captains, Romelu Lukaku and Sadio Mane are the two most popular picks for tonight’s match.

The big Belgian has struggled for form, though, failing to earn points in five of his previous six league outings.

Although he’s flourished at Anfield, Mane has disappointed on the road, serving up six blanks in eight road trips.

Meanwhile, Roberto Firmino – the third most transferred out ahead of Gameweek 17 – will be looking to stop the fire sale and end a run of five straight blanks against a defence with just a single clean sheet in 12 attempts.

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

    The third striker debate lives on. May as well go Negredo for the rest of the season. At least we'd be guaranteed 90 minutes

      Rondon from GW20 will be alright for a long run.

        Looking at him, seriously considering. Got Negredo in in the meantime.

    Just don't understand why Klopp would drop a striker who has scored in 4 out of last 5 games

      He won't, this was a derby which has been a scrappy fight, Klopp won't be looking at performances as fantasy blanks 🙂

    Wijnaldum was so exciting for us. Ran with the ball and attacked the goal.

    Looks so limited under Klopp
