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

    Salah/kaku blank no davies....Silva my only city attacker....big red arrow for me

    1. El-Kloppico

      Kaku owners should be grateful for the 2 points..

      You must have a sub for Davies. Just cheer him on instead. Your GW can still be saved by your captain. Good luck.

        i have jones coming on for davies & kane captain...but all the WC likely to overtake me

      Give it a rest it hasn't even started yet ffs

    Selling Salah and keeping Mkhi was the right call, both blanked, one has Huddersfield next, the other has Spurs.

    1. Pranav Santhosh
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      One for subbed off at 60 minutes and didn't do much. The other had 4 shots looked menacing and played 90 minutes

      1. Dr. DOOM
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        This

      2. TheBusDriver
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        78 minutes

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

        One will play against a promoted side, the other will huff and puff and miss chances against Spurs.

        3 points each and a better fixture next, it's always worth it ignoring the herd.

        1. Pranav Santhosh
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I think I would rather salah cause he looks likely to score every game meanwhile mkhi has dropped heavily since pogba got injured. But Huddersfield is a much better fixture than spurs

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

            Think Liverpool will get easily beaten by Spurs, Spurs are too good for them, don't see Salah getting much out of them.

            United will go back to smashing relegation fodder next week, happy for one more week then parting company.

            1. Pranav Santhosh
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Yeah united should smash Huddersfield and Liverpool will struggle but long term looking gw10 onwards would rather salah than mkhi

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

                Salah or Coutinho will be in place for GW10.

                1. Pranav Santhosh
                  • 9 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  Sounds like a solid plan. Good luck

    2. The UnderAcheivers
      • 13 Years

      no

    3. *Reformed-Character*
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      It really wasn't, I'd have salah over Mkhi any day

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

        Yeah so would I, just not for games against United and Spurs, I'll take him back with open arms after Mkhi and United score well against Hudds.

  3. suddenorgan

    is Schlupp actually playing up front?

  4. TheBusDriver
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    So Davies just fell ill today? I doubt it. Why didn't that idiot Pochetino say something yesterday?

    1. FPLzebub
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Maybe because he cares more about Spurs winning than your fantasy team?

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

      He's lying, he doesn't want to get slated when Spurs play is disjointed like it was v Swans with Davies rested

    3. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Baffling that people think he's just picked up this illness like he did a mystery knock the last time they played a weaker team at Wembley 😆

    4. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Took a big knock playing for Wales - wouldn’t be surprised if he has a bit of delayed concussion effects

    5. pablo discobar
      • 16 Years

      Yeah I'm sure fantasy football is top of Poch's prioritys. Also of course you can get Ill overnight. You mug

      Mourinho has been around forever lads. Quite predictable at this point.

      I'm more than content with just Phil Jones as the fixtures get tougher

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

        someone in my league has DDG/Jones double and nobody else, looks good right now

    3. FPLzebub
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      No Bavies but Bats, Jesus, Sterling and Sane all start. Swings and roundabouts but i'll take it.

      1. twoplustwo

        Nice also on Bats

      Most predictable 0-0 ever yet I left Valencia and Jones on the bench!!!!!

          In my Draft team tho. I'm not mad enough to do that on my real team 😉

      2. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Your team linked has no Valencia or Jones

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          My draft team.

      3. MTPockets
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Both was a bit silly.

      4. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        If Jesus performs well then he must be some super dude because Firm and Cout looked lost out there after all there travelling. Granted Firm's been missing for a while but still...

      5. twoplustwo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Ritchie in for Bavies, seems OK

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

          Cresswell for me. I won’t complain

        2. El-Kloppico
          • 10 Years

          Shaqiri for me. 2pointer

      6. Little Lukin
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Shame that Mourinho keeps one of the most creative players in the league on the bench in what should be one of the biggest games of the season. I would be annoyed if I had paid to watch that

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

          Calm down mate, Tuanzebe isn't THAT good yet.

          1. Little Lukin
            • 16 Years

            Mr Mata

      7. Kun Tozser

        Nice one Mr deGea!

      8. Monkey Hanger
        • 12 Years

        If City and Spurs don't turn it on this place is going to be like a funeral parlour.

        1. Syd.
          • 16 Years

          It's more fun when it resembles a funeral parlour.

      9. Sánchez
        • 13 Years

        Firmino to Vardy?

        1. weaver93
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          yes..

        2. El-Kloppico
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Done since 3 weeks now.

      10. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Davis in for Davies for me.... 😀

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

        There are a few people on this site who actually think that was a good game of football

        Really?

        1. Jam0sh
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Game of football is always good. Sometimes there's more action sometimes less. First half I enjoyed. Second not so much

          1. Eddie
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            I missed second half, was Salah just as lively?

            1. Jam0sh
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              He just might be the most dangerous looking player ever which I'm not worried not to own. Maybe not as lively as in first half but quite involved. No shots on target for either team in the second half..

        2. Fred54
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          The highlights were literally 5 seconds long.

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

          That was a rubbish game

        4. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I enjoyed the first half, prob in the 2nd half was that it really did look like it would end 0-0 from early on in that half so kinda ruined it as a entertainment spectacle

          1. Athletic Nasherbo
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            It wasn’t great at all

      12. Viper
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Jones in for Davies. I'll take it

        1. Super Silva
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Mbemba. (Boke)

      13. HNI
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Finally got right decision of playing Jones over Ritchie thanks to Mane no show. Still dissapointed Mou showed too much respect to a Liv side which is not as good as Manutd this season

        1. Jam0sh
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Good that you didn't follow my advice to play Ritchie over Jones 😀

      14. Shultan
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Pre-game press conferences are just pointless...managers dont reveal small injuries/niggles/illness

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

          If I was a manager the last thing I would do is reveal any unknown injuries to the opposition

          1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Yeah but in all honesty if Spurs need to be cagey about a lineup when taking on Bournemouth then maybe they aren’t as good as I thought... they could put out half a team and win.

      15. Super Silva
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Fellow Hazard cappers ... How are you all feeling ?

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

          Positive

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

          nervous, but hey non better.

      16. PogChamp
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Maybe this is the GW that not owning Lukaku finally comes good.

        1. GREENDREAMS11
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Got rid this morning, all in the timing eh
          😛

          1. HNI
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            SO next week gonna hide behind couch?

          2. PogChamp
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Not owned all season. It's hurt.

        2. HNI
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Mou saw to it. I now just hope some fools remove him so his captaincy vs HUD plays out well

        3. Desperately Seeking Dusan
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I’ll be worried next week but I owned him from GW1 and realistically, is his price going up more when he has 60% ownership already? I think it’s more likely to go down and I’ll get him back when the fixtures turn for similar to what I sold him for.

      17. HNI
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Bavies absent vs Bou :/
        Just wow
        He reminds me of Luke shaw with his illness and knock excuses

      18. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Think I'm gonna buy a Liverpool defender and only play them in big games

        1. El-Kloppico
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          This

        2. Jairzinho
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Like Man City?

          1. We Will Klopp you
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            We did have a makeshift defence and 10 men in that game. TAA is poor defensively and Klavan is a parody.

        3. HNI
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Well they gonna get a swuad which manager clearly undermines like Mou did today. Football lost today

          1. We Will Klopp you
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Agreed, Kaku gone in gw10 for me, learnt a lot from this game

      19. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Davies owner with Jones first on bench #swingsandroundabouts. Still dissappointed because I feel Davies had a higher ceiling today

        1. HNI
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Watford and now this..pretty frustrating player especially considering Rose will soon take his place if he doesnt man up

          1. We Will Klopp you
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Considering bringing Otamendi in for him, tough though given then value I have on him. Will wait till Rose is back before ditching

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

          Take what you are getting. Spurs could concede too.

          1. We Will Klopp you
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Good point

          TFM dropped, not sure if a problem or a blessing in disguise

          I guess its unlikely, but anyone know why Lowe is out?

        • Make United Great Again
          • 13 Years

          We were in great form and Mourinho sets up the team like that. Disgraceful.

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

            Indeed

            • 13 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Extremely disturbing. He should have left his jerk tactics behind at Chelsea. But somethings never change sadly

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

            If Lukaku had scored his easy chance people would be describing Maureen as a genius. As a Utd fan I'm happy with a point.

            1. Make United Great Again

          • 16 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Bavies not a shock tbh, illness is just a cover for playing 2 games over the international & probs feeling pretty shit imo, anyone subbing him in this week was a pretty stupid move if you did, next week was better

          1. Jay_
              8 years, 6 months ago

              On a downer from the Ireland game too. No World Cup ever for him now.
