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

    Utd counter attack goal incoming, Liverpool pushing so many forward

    GW fail 🙁

    Coutinho coming in next week, unless he rises.

    1. The Royal Robin
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Who for? I'd like him too, but the only way I'd be able to do it for free is Eriksen out.

      1. FALCAO & MOU
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        I got money ITB, planning either Vardy to Morata/Jesus or Arnautovic to Coutinho.

        1. The Royal Robin
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          I wouldn't sell Vardy. I'm trying to get him in!

          1. FALCAO & MOU
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 9 months ago

            Yep, Coutinho is perfect for me right now.

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Away to Spurs?

      1. FALCAO & MOU
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Spurs concede, and Coutinho is pretty classy.

        1. The Royal Robin
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 9 months ago

          This. Does it matter who Coutinho is playing?

  5. DAZZ
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Salah or lukaku returns please, something

  6. Robe Wan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Lol at me for benching Jones

    1. Pranav Santhosh
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Same here benched jones

    2. Jay_
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Same here, have a feeling 2 o'clock will throw a surprise though and will end up cheering a CS last 15 minutes. Only for the benched player to 1 point cameo

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

        Jesus. Needs a rest after playing for Brazil. Will get a cameo though.

        1. Jay_
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Yeah him or maybe even Eriksen

          1. Jay_
            8 years, 9 months ago

            How are you anyway mate. Had some fun over the summer with the cricket, was good.

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

              Yeah - I'm good thanks. How's things with you? Fantasy cricket was good fun.

      2. The Royal Robin
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Jay, can you see Chicharito starting up front today?

        1. Jay_
          8 years, 9 months ago

          Nope

    3. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Same here, decided for it in the last 5 mins before the deadline too.

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

    United CS points added early. Efficient work from FPL Towers!

  8. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Mkhi is so bad

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

      Everyone knows that.

    2. The Royal Robin
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      You mean he's actually playing today?!

    3. Blanka
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Is he even playing?!

  9. FALCAO & MOU
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Young is old.

    1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 11 Years

      Adam Johnson's defence

      1. Jay_
        8 years, 9 months ago

        😀

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Remember when Young & Milner double up for Villa was essential? Both 8.5's & shared pens, fks, corners, scored & assisted loads. Ahhhh... good times

      1. FALCAO & MOU
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Young won young player of the year or something.

  10. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Jesus on bench might be too bad if Utd keep a CS - Jones first sub

  11. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Lol Firmino

  12. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    It is uncanny how obvious it is that Mourinho plays for 0-0 away to big teams

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

      Good strategy IMO. If you win all your games against teams outside the top 6 home and away you will win the title. So look to do that and then pick up 0-0s away from home against the top 6 and try to win at home.

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

      Thought he wouldn't do it this year due to having a better team now. Pep is going to trounce him

  13. Ode
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Firmilol

  14. Optimus.
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    With the amount of pressure we're putting Utd under it's only a matter of time before they score

    1. Jam0sh
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      😀

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

      Lukaku (Lovren) 87'

    3. fedolefan
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Captain obvious. 🙂

  15. Mr Arsenal
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    United playing like Burnley.

    1. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      This is how you beat Liverpool though.

    2. 824545201
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      They are not that good.

    3. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      You're doing Burnley a disservice there

    4. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      And Burnley tend to get results against Pool 😎

    5. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Burnley have Chris Wood up top

      Manu have actual wood

  16. CFC96
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    lukaku blank and suspension, kane repeat of swansea, and jesus rest is bound to happen to my team

  17. Clump
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Fowl throw 🙂
    Under 10s stuff

    1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      always was a turkey. Chickened out of it

    2. evilfish
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      If someone threw fowl at you, would you duck?

  18. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    How the fook can you earn £60k a week as a full back and not know how to take a throw-in.

  19. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    In hindsight it should have been obvious this would end 0-0

    1. HNI
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Well actually no as Manutd better team than Liv now. Very frustrating that Mou got scared still and parking the bus

    2. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      It always was 🙂

    3. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      United were always going to park the bus, but Liverpool are good at derbies, so not really.

  20. Yozzer
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Can you tit

  21. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Emre Can't

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

      Emre Should've

  22. Odikostar
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Without mane coutinho are just too good for the rest of this team. Gonna be so good at barca

    1. DAZZ
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Agreed he is made to feed messi and suarez, he'll fit in beauifully, but we want 100+ million for him

  23. JustPark
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    *looking at Wijnadum*
    Interesting~

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Lallana when he returns

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

        They will fighting for minute then

  24. fedolefan
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Get in the box Salah

  25. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    If Liverpool had a natural goalscorer they would be decent.

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

      Sturridge.

      If they had a fit natural goalscorer*

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Ings?

      2. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        He is fit and he's doing nothing of late 😀

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

          How can you even try to call him fit. He's played 1 full game in the first 7, and hasn't played 1000 minutes in the last 3 seasons. If he played more than 2 games in a row his legs would fall off.

    2. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Imagine a Morata for example, would get so many chances

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 9 months ago

        Yep. These attacking mids are wasting tons of chances.

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Lukaku is a natural goal scorer & he gets constantly slated on here

    4. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Been the case since Suarez left

  26. Gobigorgohome
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Lingard coming on

  27. Pariße
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    I guess benching Jones was a very reasonable decision. United not conceding is starting to look like pure luck.

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

      That's all this game is. Reasonable decisions and luck.

  28. HNI
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    So wanted salah over cout looking at first half but second half salah is 100% absent

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Been less than 15 mins lol

  29. Patty
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Please Liverpool I'm tired of gloating United fans

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Despite my earlier 'bantz' mainly directed against Liverpool I would prefer them to win this.

  30. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 9 months ago

    Will Mkhi make it to 60?

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      He's still on the pitch?

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Just made it

    3. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 9 months ago

      Did
