Lincoln City’s shock FA Cup win over Burnley has handed Fantasy managers an extra match to plan for ahead of Gameweek 28, with the Clarets’ visit to Liverpool now guaranteed.

One of only eight sides set to offer us a fixture in each of the next three Gameweeks, Jurgen Klopp’s men also face a favourable trip to Leicester City next Monday evening.

With the Alexis Sanchez exodus in full flow after Arsenal clinched a spot in the FA Cup quarter-finals on Monday night, thus depriving the Gunners of matches in Gameweek 26 and 28, we put the Merseysiders midfield options under the microscope.

First up, we’ll look at how Klopp’s attack is performing when compared with both the rest of the top-flight and their own season averages.

We then monitor the displays of their midfielders over each players’ respective last six matches, looking for signs of form at a time when many are turning to Sadio Mane on the back of his two-goal haul against Spurs last time out.

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

    Well that's that sorted then 😆

      It's a little helpful. I've discounted Can and Henderson.

    Excellent article, thank you

    Imagine the moment the mascot realises he or she has been paired with the useless official who stands behind the goal line rather than Aguero or KDB 😀

    Ooooooo just what I need. I'll be reading this very carefully!

      More carefully than Bemba I hope 😀

        Bemba has X-Men like abilities. He can read articles and post team news with lightning speed.

          Just struggles with scorers a bit

  5. Dasher0303

    What to do?

    Jaku - Heaton
    Cahill Coleman Baines Brunt Chambers
    Siggy Antonio - Sanchez Stanislas T.Carroll
    Kane Lukaku - Ibra
    1ft 0.0itb

    I think I need Chelsea attack for their fixtures, and also pool for gw28.

    Maybe Sanchez and Stanislas to Mane/Firmino and Pedro for a hit.
    Or just Sanchez to Mane/Firmino.
    I could also do Ibra to Costa and then Sanchez to Mane for gw28.

    For non-members, I can reveal that Jay Spearing is revealed as the Liverpool mid of choice in the article above.

    DISALLOWED

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      Hardly disallowed, he put the ball into the net long after the whistle had blown and everyone had stopped

        xD

    Quality stuff

    Just what I needed when looking for a Sanchez replacement.

  9. Zlat-man
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 days ago

    Whom you rather let go before gw28?
    Kane or Alli?

    1. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      Alli

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      I may keep both but definitely Alli if I sell one

      1. Zlat-man
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 days ago

        Even if Rose comes back to starting XI?

    3. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      Kane

  10. Davido989

    France have arguably the 2 best young attackers in Europe in Mbappe and Dembele.

    1. TheTinman

          Makes more sense :).

          Thought you had jumped on the Real Madrid and Barca links

          1. Davido989
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 7 days ago

            Haha not seen much of the Celtic striker. But Ousmane Dembele is incredible 🙂

            1. TheTinman

              Me neither and until he does it.in a good league I'm. other interested 🙂

    I wish one of my players were dropping or something so I could do my transfers

    I have no valid reason not to wait a day or so ...but might just do them anyway

  12. TheTinman

    9 years, 7 days ago

    Had Firmino at the beginning so, being a fair and honest gentleman, Mané will now get his turn.

    It's only fair.

    Can't believe those Jay Spearing stats though..m

    Man City are in trouble here... get on over 3.5 goals now if you're a gambler 😉

    1. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years

      Have you got any cash on it?

      1. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 days ago

        I stopped gambling a couple of years ago! Was sick of sponsoring the Bet370-5 xmas party

        1. JAC THE CAT
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 days ago

          Ha ha! I was just about to bet on Monaco at 9/2 before the goal.

          1. TheTinman
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 7 days ago

            I'd be even more tempted now 😉

  16. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 days ago

    Haven't read the article yet but I assume the answer is Firmino?

    1. TheTinman

      Start reading...

  17. @ImpressiveTackl

    Those who bought Sanchez at 10.9... still selling?

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      Yep, I did

    2. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      I didn't but I would still sell if I did.

        1. JAC THE CAT
          • 12 Years

          I did think that 😉

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      Unless you think he will score well vs Pool, I'd sell if bought at 10.9

    4. makaveli123
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      Yeah. Liverpool double up

  18. Legomane

    Super article. As an early mover to Hazard, think it's a case of watch and wait for now. Probably look to bring in. Luv mid for Haz in 28

      Has Griezmann ever played in the Europa League? 😉

  21. John t penguin

    In your collective wisdom you all seem to be naming all the players it isn't about. Narrowing it down to one obvious player.
    I will now spend my membership money saved on Arsenal beating Barca in final

    1. makaveli123
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      Milner is the one to get.

  22. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 days ago

    Aguero should have threw himself at that. KDB is the master of that ball in between keeper and defence

  23. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 7 days ago

    Sane to Sterling 1-0

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      Leroy Sane really turning it on in a City shirt. Lovely player.

    Oooh, FPL are now displaying the Blank GWs and fixtures yet to be scheduled, for each player!

    I guess they have been tweeted to death about this.

    1. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 days ago

      Right decision really.

      1. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 days ago

        Sadly, you are right

      2. Philman
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 7 days ago

        I agree. Why not make the site more informative. Non-casuals can win fair 🙂

        I still wish they would fix the slide bars overlapping the player stats though - that is just plain bad design.

        Actually, good decision on the replay I just saw.

    Excited to get Sane and Sterling in on my gw29 WC:)

  29. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Sterling and sane on the radar for the dgw

  30. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 days ago

    What kind of goals is Sterling scoring? Are they all tap-ins? I'm confused honestly. He used to be worse at tap ins but I have a hard time believing he's improved his shooting from range.
