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

    First half got me like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXB-5MbKBgs

  8. arkom

    Heaton - Pickford
    Lovren - Alonso - Holebas - McAuley - Amat
    Hazard - Sanchez - Eriksen - Lallana - De Roon
    Costa - Zlatan - Origi

    I made yesterday Kane to Zlatan. Now I wonder if I should change also Origi away. The Sturridge seems to become his replacement in the future (perhaps next game).

    So Negredo in his place or who else at this price? Bank 0,1£.

    2. Jay_

      Sad thing is, it's not even shocking anymore. Like cancer.

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        True. Similar incident happened before in France.

  14. Jay_
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Lovren cruising towards a 9 pointer.

    1. Licky
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      ... and I benched him, along with Pickford.

  15. sminkypinky
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Has 0-0 all over this. Worst possible result.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

    Not watching the game, how;s Firmino looking? Attempted Assist per FFFix.

    1. Jay_
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Done nothing. That came from a little sideways pass on edge of box that Winjaldum skied over.

      1. Jay_
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Just almost scored, one on one with goalie he tries to lob, Stek stands up, blocks it.

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Great teeth.

    3. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years

  18. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Firmino misses a sitter (kind of)

    1. KISSES
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      100% sitter

  19. MikeDuff

    Liverpool up for it now.

    1. Tansey
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      skip in their step now it looks like

  22. Ravager
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    I thought that was where Firmino would punish me for selling him but...lol

  23. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    A 1v1 with Stekelenburg is basically an open goal.

  24. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    I have Firmino, he plays on the wing. I get Origi, and get rid of Firmino, now Origi is on the wing and Firmino in the middle. Smh.

    1. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Well currently, they're both sucking. So at least that's something?

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Nah

  25. Jay_
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Origi got right in Lallana way there on the rebound

  26. Sz21
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    So the Origi audition not going too well then?

    Sturridge back soon too.

    May go with Llorente after all.

  27. Backup Dancer
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Oh Firmino!

  28. tm245
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    His confidence is shot.

    1. fedolefan
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah, this performance seals it.

  29. sminkypinky

    Pretty glad I'm no longer a Bobby owner...
