We make our way to Anfield as Liverpool and Manchester United go head-to-head in Saturday’s early kick-off.

Having scored seven times in as many matches, Romelu Lukaku arguably faces his toughest challenge of the season against a defence that’s shipped just one goal in front of their own fans.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan could be on his last chance for many Fantasy owners. After a strong start to the season, the Armenian’s influence has waned of late – he’s managed just a goal and assist in five and has Spurs and Chelsea in the subsequent three.

For Liverpool, interest in Philipp Coutinho is on the rise after he served up two goals and an assist in the last two Gameweeks.

Meanwhile, Mo Salah – the most owned midfielder in FPL – looks to replicate the form that has produced double-digits in both his home starts for the Merseysiders.

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

    Rashford or Martail might be a good bet for a few games if Lukaku gets a ban.

    1. Maddamotha

      Why on earth would he get a ban for that?

    1. Les Bleus

      Lovren acting like a proper b*tch. Though, a good amount of football players are like that these days.

        😆 I want to see someone run on with a steel chair and knock the keeper out when the refs back is turned. That ok in wwf

      Same, i feel the hate he gets on here is unjustified
      When kane blanked all of september he got nowhere near the level of hate lukaku gets

      No, dropping him for the Huddersfield game.

      Yes and captaining him and he isn't getting a ban.

  13. dark91

    Surprised this game is relatively open
    Do you think Man Utd and Spurs will be more open or more defensive?

    1. TooDifficuIt
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      much more defensive

    2. My Name Is Pepu
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      The way Spurs play, it will be a bit more open.

    3. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      It will be a chess game.

    4. Postman Ty
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Defensive. But Kane is much better than any attacker Liverpool has.

  14. Bouncebackability
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 17 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Lukaku won't get anything for that. No way you can conclusively say it was anything deliberate. Sneaky, but not the sort of thing you get a retrospective ban for.

    1. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Agreed

      1. Lazaretti
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        If Lovren would have rolled over one more time, then it would have been 3 match ban for Lukaku. Now when there is just 10 rolls there wont be ban at all.

  15. ILOVEBAPS

    Has 0-0 written all over it.

    1. Sailboats

      Easy to say that now

  16. Begbie.

    Don't think Lukaku meant that tbh. Difference with incidents like Mings is they purposefully stamped downwards, he was turning round and it flicked his face, could've been sneaky and subtle but I'd give him the benefit of the doubt.

    Him getting banned would make transfers a lot easier though...

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      The difference is the jersey he's wearing.

  17. Bouncebackability

    I knew this was how the game would go and I still benched my united defender. Nobody to blame but myself.

    1. Sailboats
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      And when United concede in the 2nd half you would be praising yourself. GTFO man

    Hmmmm how many times have we seen "Lukaku Donkey" "Lukaku Useless" comments on FFS at half-time and then it all changes come full time?

    1. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Still doesn't stop him being a bit useless. It's not his fault, left alone up front with 10 men in the first third. He's going to need to be provided with chances to be useful.

    Not sure why people are surprised by Utd's performance. Against good teams Mourinho is a defensive manager. A 0-0 is a good result as it is 2pts dropped by Liverpool. Mourinho knows defence wins PL titles - that is why he has so many of them. Mkhi, Lukaku will get lots of points, but today is not the day to be counting on them.

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      I think a draw isn't a great result for United.

      Unlike last season where they went into the game as underdogs, they went into this game as the better team and title favorites along with City. Liverpool aren't exactly a title threat for United. I thought Mourinho would only park it after getting at least a 1 goal lead. Let's see what happens.

      1. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        You win all your games against teams outside the Top 6 = 28 wins * 3pts = 84 pts. Title won and any points you get against the Top 6 = bonus.

        1. Cok3y5murf
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Well they won't win all those games and would be foolish to rely on that, so...

        2. Postman Ty
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Except no team has ever nor will they ever win every game against 'the rest'.

    2. Postman Ty
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Liverpool dropping 2 points is completely irrelevant to City winning the league if United can't beat the big teams. Winning the league means you're supposed to be the best, which means you should be hoping to win any given game. Granted, this is at Anfield, so a point definitely isn't bad.

    Lukaku owners: "obviously accidental"
    Lukaku non-owners: "obviously deliberate"

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I’d bet my left testicle that won’t be a ban

    2. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years

      Was obviously accidental

    3. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      As a non Lukaku owner I agree. The way he picked his foot off the ground was reckless and intentional.

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Really after he stumbles over the player and is visibly looking off towards the direction of play likely not even knowing where Lovrens head is? ABU’s

  23. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Haha Neville was saying watch Lukaku left foot but there is nothing in it and was definitely not intentional. People comparing it to Mings are dillusional, his was a stomp

  24. Ghost Gooner
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Dribbles and not losing possession

    1. G-Whizz

    Got to say it's unpleasant watching Salah when you've just sold him, though I imagine owning him is pretty frustrating too

    News from Bournemouth league

    Ake has benched Kane and played himself
    Begovic has benched Alli
    Gosling has benched Eriksen and played Begovic & Daniels
    Lewis Cook has sold Alli and played Daniels & himself
    Steve Cook has sold triple Spurs and played himself & Lewis Cook

    Meanwhile Daniels & Pugh didn't get the memo and both have triple Spurs including Kane (c)

      Daniels and Pugh going to let Kane run riot. I like it. Not worried by Ake - he played for Netherlands mid week and will be tired - he was running around like a madman trying to help Netherlands score goals.
