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.

    I hate I told you so's but.

    If you captained Mane thats unfortunate and silly.

      9 years, 1 month ago

      Unfortunate yes, silly? No

        So Silly. Away at Man City. Just because they scored a few goals already.

        Not intelligent move.

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Yes that powerhouse of defense man city, you're spouting rubbish man. Look how the game was going before the red card

          And no I didn't captain him, don't even own him

            its MAN CITY! What is wrong with you! They have the capacity to win any game, any day. As proven.

            My thoughts are the move is silly. each to their own though eh.

            1. @persecuted_by_mods
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Who's talking about winning or losing? He needs goals and assists for points, look at Liverpool's record Vs the top teams look at how the match was going before the red.

              I wouldn't risk it myself, but I don't get on my high horse after it happened and call people silly either

        It was against city, probably the hardest fixture they've had so far, it was silly

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
          9 years, 1 month ago

          How hard were Liverpool finding the match before the red? Was it so outrageous to assume mane might get attacking returns

    2. Kaneyonero

    Man City get a lucky decision and beat a team everyone was already fully aware were weak defensively. Definitely time to completely destroy the great WC team you just made. :eyeroll:

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Lucky decision? It's a red all day.

      1. SweeSwee
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Shoving your face into someone's boot doesn't equal a red card.

        1. Drum8888
          9 years, 1 month ago

          It won't be reversed regardless of what you think.

    4. walkman666

      I think that was a clear red though.

  14. Keep Calm and Play On

    Still on this, but....do we feel that if the Mane tackle was at midfield on any other player than a goalkeeper it wouldn't be a red...we see it all the time with players

    1. Tiote on Peyote
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kicked him in the face man, red everywhere on anyone.

    2. walkman666

      It was a mixed martial arts kick to the face. Seems reddish to me.

    If Aguero and Jesus learnt to love each other like Yorke and Cole, they could be the next Henry and Bergkamp. 😆
