Saturday’s action concludes at Anfield with Liverpool attempting to halt a wretched run in 2017 with victory over fellow title hopefuls Spurs.

From a Fantasy perspective, our focus will mainly be with the visitors, with Dele Alli and Kyle Walker boasting 27.2% and 36.2% ownership respectively. Harry Kane (19%) and Christian Eriksen (15.9%) also go into the tea-time kick-off heavily backed, despite suffering significant sales: Kane was shown the exit by more than 127,000, second only to Liverpool’s Adam Lallana ahead of Gameweek 25.

Jurgen Klopp’s assets have slumped, both in terms of output and popularity with Philippe Coutinho (17.4%) and Lallana (16%) still the top owned on show. The latter is without a goal or an assist in his last five Gameweeks.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Part 1 of eriksen > Siggy gone to plan

        This 😀

    3. NATSTER

      That will only accelerate his sale. Surely fall tonight.

    4. Ibracadabra
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Hope loads sell him, I am keeping. 2 home games next Stoke and Everton, with Rose likely back for the latter and a shift back to 3-4-1-2. Still will be a big threat at home and free kicks/corners.

      Very similar to when many sold Firmino after 3-4 blanks and he scored in double figures or when many sold Hazard before Arsenal and he scored the goal of the season...

      Class player Eriksen.

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        He is but look at his goal scoring, one little spurt of three or four games and ZERO for the entire season.

        SELL HIM.

      2. NATSTER
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        3-4-2-1 will benefit Erik & Alli.

    5. Yank Revolution

      Shipped him for Siggy last nite-- whew!

  5. Qubit

  6. Magic Bean
    • 10 Years

    How does Milner and Kane have a yellow and Alli doesn't? Joke of a ref!

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      So you're hoping a player gets booked?

    2. Magic Bean
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Nope, been a poor poor showing from a lot of refs today. They need to do better

    3 blanks in a row for Eriksen since I bought him
    Poor effort lad

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I believe it is Son to blame.

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        More specifically, formation change since Rose injury.

        1. Ibracadabra
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          This, and Rose back in GW27.

  12. Rainer

    Is Harry Winks related to Coutinho?

    1. Rainer

    1. Epic Fail

      No

    2. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years

      Brainer

  16. Les Bleus

    Gonna be hard to endure these Eriksen price drops before Stoke at home!

    1. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure why you'd keep him for 2 points really...

      1. Ibracadabra
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Eriksen last 3 home scores, 11-10-3. 24 points / 8 ppg.

        Has two home fixtures against mid table sides next. Not sure why anyone would drop him now. Surely the time would have been prior to this match (at Liverpool) where he hasnt been as productive (on the road).

        1. Somalion
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          But they've changed tactics which seems to be killing his returns? The two home games you mention that he got returns in were a month ago at this point.

          1. Ibracadabra
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Tactics change was forced due to injuries (Vermaelen / Rose). Both are back at end of month. They will go back to 3-4-1-2 in March and anyway even in this formation Eriksen is dangerous from free kicks and corners, he has proven it for ~4 years in FPL that he is EXACTLY the type of player who can explode after three or four 2's because he has the underlying class. Not a great sell in my opinion or a buy (due to gw28) but a definite hold with two home fixtures to come.

            1. Fred54
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Interesting.

            2. Somalion
              • 16 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Yes forced by injury, Rose expected back sooner than Vert who will miss the Stoke fixture at the very least. I did watch the Boro game, and he was decent, probably could have gotten something, but still didn't. He'll now price drop, very possibly by 0.3 over the upcoming two weeks, which would be problematic for me to hang onto him. I'm very unsure about him at the moment tbh, as I am about Spurs attack in general, until I see them revert back to their old formation. Whenever that happens he's an awesome choice again imo.

              1. Ibracadabra
                • 16 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                Fair enough - each team has their own issues.

                For me, I would never consider selling him with 2 home games to come, but it's a moot point as I have 4 players out next week and 2 free transfers:

                Ibra, Sanchez, Yoshida, Amat.

                I will of course move out 2/4 of those aforementioned players and field a full side next week so Eriksen will be staying in my team, price drops or not.

                Not too concerned with price drops for him anyway as he is a player I don't mind holding for a long time even if his price drops, he will provide value in that mid priced range and have a game with multiple goals or assists before the season is over.

          2. Ibracadabra
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Did you also watch the game he got 3pts (last week against Boro?). Was tremendous in that game with four at the back and unlucky not to score/assist multiple times in the 1-0 win.

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Same. Don't really want to do a -4, although dare I say if I do it with one eye on a GW28er it could pay off.

  17. Cpt Crunch Scott talent

    Eriksen being subbed first good thing to happen this gw.

  18. TokyoRisingSun

    Phillips to Lanzini?

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Play BOU (H) on the next and have game on GW28.

      1. NATSTER
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I mean no.

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

          Lanzini has Watford and also plays GW28

          1. NATSTER
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Lanzini is a good buy. I might try to sell someone else.

            For me, it will be Sanchez.

  19. Richd
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Eriksen and Ali haven't got me any attacking returns thus far. God sake.

  20. Differentiator
    • 10 Years

    Ghost yellow card for a non-existent 'tackle'

    Need robotic referees ASAP

  21. Guy Demel
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Eriksen into that infuriating to own stage.

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      You were great to own tho Guy!

  22. Revival

    With no European Football the next 4 weeks are great for Liverpool and Chelsea to take advantage of the others playing extra games

  23. Rainer

    Was adamant of Eriksen to Siggy last night, at least those that did have hope at least now 🙂

  24. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Alli can't control the ball like that at Barca

    Went about 10 yards in front of him

  25. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    So i imagine everyone's guess now should be if Sanchez will return points against Liverpool.What do you think?

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

      Probably.

  26. Kizza_10
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Who should I replace for Siggy ?

    1. Alli
    2. Eriksen

    1. BlzE_94
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      the one who go subbed off with 30 mins to play

    2. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      From the look of today, 2.

  27. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years

    Is Alli just a slightly better version of Barkley

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Both overrated to be honest

      1. Ibracadabra
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Don't think Barkley is overrated. Actually rated very neutrally last few seasons by his own managers (Martinez / Koeman) as well as media. Also snubbed by England.

    2. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yes......... So overrated still a good player though

  28. Syd.

    What happened to Eriksen

    Gini Wijnaldum is absolutely brilliant.
