An eventful Saturday comes to its conclusion at the King Power as Leicester entertain Liverpool.

Jamie Vardy recovers from injury to lead the line for the hosts – he’s scored twice in each of his last two home outings against the Merseysiders.

The visitors’ Mo Salah has served up three sets of double-digits in four starts and will fancy his chances up against young Ben Chilwell down the hosts’ left. Only 2% have captained the Egyptian for Gameweek 6.

Roberto Firmino and Philippe Coutinho also start as the Reds look to bounce back from a pair of disappointing displays that have seen them scored just once in the last two Gameweeks.

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

    Is a combo of either Kane, Jesus/Aguero, Lukkau & Morata the way forward this year?

    1. GAMBIT
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Looks like it

    2. Sims
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      looks like it

      1. Bakeyournoodle
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Seems impossible to afford 3 expensive strikers and impossible to choose which 3.

    3. mazkills
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      It's the strongest option...but going with 2 of those and a Vardy is great for beefing up your other 8

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        And we not even seen the best of Lacazette next.
        Can see 3 big up top rotated for fixtures leading to lots of points.

    Is Sterling nailed?

    1. Foozeball
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Only Silva and KDB are the closest to being nailed among the City attackers so far

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Really? Sterling is doing a good imitation, then.

    2. mazkills
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      no way to tell. I was very close to going Alli > Sterling, but started thinking (he gets brought off early, the scoring at man city is usually spread out...) today it kicked my ass...good luck

    3. zes
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Nowhere near. I think it's his first start of the season today

    4. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      As John McEnroe once said. . .

    5. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He seems to be, but can't say for sure. He's started his last 3 games and Pep likes him

  3. Ronnies
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Best replacement for naughton ?
    I have 4.8m to spend.

    Current defence - jones / cedric / mee / naughton / long

    Tnks guys.

    1. GAMBIT
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      The Stoke guys rotate well with Mee

    2. Man Getting Hit By Football
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Why Naughton out?

      1. Ronnies
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        no clean sheet today

        1. Man Getting Hit By Football
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          3 good fixtures coming up, not sure anyone is better for 4.8 or under, unfortunate he only got 1 point today

      2. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        4.8 there not a lot of options. Naughton probably as good as any of the other choices

  4. F4L
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Double up on Cho-Moting and Shaqiri will prove dividends for the next few; cheeky little tip off

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      STK : SOU -58 mci -477

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        that Southampton number seems a little off to me, they haven't been defensively solid this year imo. City obviously a problem, but that's the only hard fixture in the next 6-7

    2. Gooner Kebab
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Leicester and Chelsea too!

  5. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Rooney not even last Sixty. He is done, has been for sometime

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        He looks like extra from the walking dead

    1. BIG TONES
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Shut up...

  6. Yippeekiyay Mertersacker
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    FPL Niasse fail

    What was that all about then?

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      What happened?

      1. Yippeekiyay Mertersacker
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        As far as I could see, he wasn't actually in the game until EVE BOU finished -
        http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2017/09/21/scout-notes-carabao-cup-wednesday/

        ; if you expanded the score it showed that EVE had scored 2 goals, but no goalscorer was listed.

        Now suddenly he pops up in the EVE roster with 11pts - if I'd wanted to pick him after seeing his performance in the Carabao Cup, would have been p*******!

  7. n-doggg
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Firmino owners... what you thinking? Keep or ditch?

    1. ☈☾
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I wanna ditch

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He is out of form, sadly.

    3. More Tragic
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Keeping for now.

      With Mane he's a totally different proposition.

    4. mazkills
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      ditching for Vardy (foxes have great fixtures)

      1. n-doggg
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Not morata?

        1. mazkills
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I have Morata(c) 😉

    5. LǝgleSs e|even
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Keeping

    6. Sideways Backwards
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He's much better with Mane on the pitch. But worse with Coutinho on the pitch.

      Coutinho could be the one for value

      1. More Tragic
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        we've yet to see him with Coutinho deeper playing the through balls coupled with Mane + Salah.
        He could be gold in that set up

    7. Man Getting Hit By Football
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He can score points, but I still want to ditch. Pool mids may score better long term.

    8. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Keeping for Newcastle and then wild carding and will decide then

      1. Old Gregg
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Same Dunas.
        However, I may get rid of Jesus.

  8. LǝgleSs e|even
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Played Brady + Richarlison , benched Atsu.
    Fingers crossed, it was the right decision..Gluck to Ritchie and Atsu fielders

  9. THFC4LIFE

    • 9 Years

    Any ideas for next gw?

    Foster
    Cedric Jones Bavies
    Salah Mkhi Silva Atsu
    Kun Kane Firmino

    Elliot Mbemba Naughton T.Carrol

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years

      Save for now a lot of games between now and next gw
      😉

  10. Ghost Gooner
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    74 points and a climb from 850,881 to 372500 with Elliott Lascelles and Kola to play. 🙂 I'll be happy with 10 more points.

    Mounie to Niasse or save ft

    Elliott
    Kola Davies Cedric Lascelles
    Salah Mkhi Silva Brady
    Kane Morata

    Speroni Xhaka Mounie B Smith

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Great score. Save for now a lot of games between now and next gw

      1. Ghost Gooner
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah, the Pogba injury stung a lot of managers. Don't want to suffer the same fate

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Worth it for a punt, otherwise hold.

  11. Maddi Son
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Which is better.

    Firmino, Mahrez & Choupo-Moting to either:

    a) Morata, Sterling, RLC
    b) Vardy, Sane, Ritchie.

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Sterling/Sane big rotation risks

      1. Maddi Son
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Honestly the whole team looks dodgy for rotation bar a few.

        I feel like 7.8-8.2ish is worth the rotation.

        1. THFC4LIFE
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          True as long as Pep sticks to 4 at the back either Sane or Sterling should start most weeks

  12. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    perfect definition of a knee jerk is getting choupo moting after his brace against man united

    1. Maddi Son
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Honestly you could say that about Mounie, Mooy, Richarlison, Gross, Atsu.. take your pick.

      1. Slam
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        How was Atsu a knee jerk?
        Got me a goal last week iirc

        1. Maddi Son
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          So if they score the knee jerk doesn't count?

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      not really. Good stats, and will come good

  13. F4L
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    can we see Spurs improving at Wembley sooner or latter?

    1. Iceman
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I'm ditching Kane for Morata/Kun for GW8.

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        same, I think. Maybe Eriksen too

        1. Iceman
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I 'm going to hold onto Eriksen, he is better value than Kane and provides coverage in the event Spurs go on a rampage.

    2. Iceman
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I think later (unfortunately)

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        same, away game to Real in the CL will take it out of them as well

        1. Iceman
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          This is a good point.

        2. Iceman
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Spurs always struggle after Europe.

    3. fishnil
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Should be sooner... Can't be that the whole team's like Kane and his August hoodoo

    4. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      No. Every team who plays them there will raise their game because it feels like a cup final.

      I might ditch Kane after next week for that reason.

      Wait on Mendy news..

      Vardy has decent fixtures coming up..

    1. LǝgleSs e|even

      8 years, 6 months ago

      No, they did not have Kane. Dissapointing.

  18. Feloh

    is 310 pts enough for top 1M

      no

      1. Feloh
        • 9 Years

        long way to go then. I sincerely hope this is the headstart that I needed so very much

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Why RLC, and not Cork, say?

      1. n-doggg
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        If he keeps playing advanced then he shows more promise for points once fixtures level out

          Such a dirty team. And crazy cheap even now. No-brainer for me, PL and other leagues are too expensive for the start.

      I didn't see read the first bit and I thought this was your Fpl team 😀

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years

        It's doing better than his current FPL team

  22. Scapegoat Salah

    8 years, 6 months ago

    No love for Sane? Could be a bargain at 8.2

    1. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Worry about gametime, will have good games now and then of course.

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        True, looks good whether he starts or not.

      I like the guy but his minutes have been rather limited except for today.

    I mean, the current price rises system is very underwhelming. Having to take team value into account added another aspect to the game, and was far more enjoyable.

      Still need to be very careful with the pennies. Aguero will have made a bankable 0.2 in a short space of time. Avoiding the fallers crucial too

        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        yep I suppose. But how Firmino hasn't dropped yet....and Morata last season would have been close to rising tonight, not down at 12%ish

  24. Kante FC
    • 8 Years

    David Silva (che) > Alli (hud)?

    1. fishnil

      Be like your namesake... Hold

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Not bad for one week but long term I think I'd want Silva with City's form.

  25. Ode

    Will Sturridge start in CL for liverpool?

    1. n-doggg
      • 13 Years

      When they play in the europa he will

  26. ☈☾

    Have 2 FTs

    What should I fix?

    Foster (elliot)

    Bavies Kola Alonso (naughton rangel)
    Mkhi Alli Richarlison Salah Silva
    Morata Firmino (calvert lewin)

      • 13 Years

      im thinking this order...am i giving to much credit to Choupo playing as a Centre Forward?

      1 Choupo
      5 shaqiri
      2 Ritchie
      3 Gross

    So, so you think you can tell
    Heaven from hell
    Blue skies from pain
    Can you tell a green field
    From a cold steel rail?
    A smile from a veil?
    Do you think you can tell?

      • 11 Years

      I can.

        You should be No1 in FPL

      There aren't any fpl players in this rmt but I am still going to give it a 10 because I love this song

    The only way those Lukaku chants are going to stop is if he gets his wang out for all to see.

    1. aborg

      LOLLLLL 🙂

  30. F4L
    • 11 Years

    Moreno had a cracking game, at 4.5 I reckon he could be a great pick

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Zero clean sheets

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      If he was nailed on I'd have him
