Gameweek 4 gets underway with the showpiece fixture as Manchester City host Liverpool at the Etihad Stadium.

From a Fantasy perspective, the focus will clearly be on the attacking players.

City’s strikers head into the contest with impressive statistics to back them up. Sergio Aguero has scored in each of his five home meetings with Liverpool since arriving in the Premier League. As for Gabriel Jesus, he has been involved in 12 goals in his 11 starts, scoring eight and providing four assists.

But they will face a super confident Liverpool, boasting their own in-form “forward”. Roberto Firmino is the most bought asset over the international break, having found his way into 374,000+ squads since the Gameweek 3 deadline. The Brazilian has scored two goals and earned two assists in his four appearances against City.

Then we have the twin threats of Sadio Mane and Mo Salah – when they’ve started this season, they’ve scored, with five goals between them so far.

Salah is backed by over 238,000 new owners ahead of today’s encounter, only Henrikh Mkhitaryan (241,000+) saw more traffic among FPL midfielders since Gameweek 3.

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

    KDB and Jesus out on wildcard.... typical

    It's days like this I think I might just pack in fantasy football.

    Not really hard to decide: By raising his foot in a desperate attempt to play the ball 'anywhere', did Mane slam his studs in the face of a 6 foot 2 opponent who had beaten him to the ball safely with his head?

    1. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Could you have lead that question any more? Could just as easily read:

      With his eyes constantly following the ball he raised his boot to control the ball completely unaware that the goalkeeper had come charging out of his box and dived head-first at the ball.

      At least try not to be biased.

    1 from 1 should be above average eh? 😀

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'm -5 from 2

      1. CloudSky
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Jeez.

        1. Goonermeister
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I'm -3 from 2

  10. Sim Simma

    Now just imagine if you sold KDB as part of a -8pt hit and brought in Mane and captained him

    1. A Team Of James McCleans
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'd probably contact FPL to just shut down my account

    2. ChelseaGuy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      There ought to be someone somewhere

    3. MrZ
      9 years, 1 month ago

      That's hurt. Feel sorry for you.
      Feel the same way last gw with britos red, brought him with a hit

    4. Intinny

      Guy in my league has Salah Mane and Firmino and triple captained Mane. The pain is everywhere

    5. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'd say most people have at least 1 of those moments each season.

      Maybe not the -8 hit part.

    6. Goonermeister
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Did it as part of a -4 hit

  11. Unsuccessful

    KdB to Eriksen looking good so far

  12. seanie3
    9 years, 1 month ago

    oh my days, KDB is killing me after transferring him out this morning for Mkhitaryan, 2 assists, probably end up with cs point and 3bps and wouldn't be surprised if he gets another assist or goal at this rate...

  13. TheSteel
    9 years, 1 month ago

    KDB was always a season keeper. Will end up top 5 in midfield scoring.

    1. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      9 years, 1 month ago

      If he plays in an attacking role, like he is today, yes. But he was playing way too deep in the first 3 GWs so it was the still right decision to sell him imo.

  14. Beatle

    My transfers this week....Mane and Mbemba in for a hit 🙁

  15. Rainer
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Wildcard fail? 😛

  16. MikeyMitz

    What happened to all the KDB panickers? Seriously chuffed this morning- I dealt with a lot of grief last week arguing to keep him.

  17. BIind Moth
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Dreadful start for me... only silver lining was changing Mane captain to Lukaku this morning.

  18. MrZ
    9 years, 1 month ago

    That kdb assists confirm me not to pick anyone from man city 😀

    Too much uncertainty in that team

  19. Lav
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Dont regret selling KDB on the WC. He was poor.

    Confident DSilva will get returns in the second half.

    1. Odikostar
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Haha lol on you

  20. Differential C (Mark)
    9 years, 1 month ago

    If Hazard performs, might do Mane to Hazard.

  21. SirStevieG
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Traded KDB to Salah and Willian to Mkhi this week.

    I quit.

    1. the snazzy viking
      9 years, 1 month ago

      At least you didn't do KDB to Mane for a hit. FML

      1. Luis Suarez Ate My Homework
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I did.
        Or was it Jesus to Morata for a hit? Depends which I did first.
        I can never keep track.
        FMFL.

      2. Odikostar
        9 years, 1 month ago

        This is the main transfer regret this week

  22. Qaiss
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone saying thats not a red needs to imagine that would happen to their own goalkeeper. Definite red. Liverpool fans are unbelievably biased.

  23. Sánchez
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Yaay. Just seen Jesus scored.
    Really glad I kept faith in him

  24. TheTinman
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Salah will bag here

  25. eamonhegg

    280,000 crying

  26. alfast1c

    Mane > Sterling ?

  27. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Pool with no Coutinhio or Mane means I'll probably sell Firminio also unless Klopp says Coutinhio is back in.

    1. Pacer.
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Don't panic, they didn't have Salah last time they were without Mane.

  28. fiveyears

    9 years, 1 month ago

    Irony being KDB > Mane was my planned transfer next week, funny game this

  29. Fred54
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Either its going to be a belting 2nd half for Liverpool or its a rare fail for the article pic.
