Dugout Discussion – Liverpool vs Man United

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

      His owners are lucky. Most would have kept him whereas they should get rid. Now they will get Kun or Morata, in other words do what they should have done

          Everybody who owns Lukaku should get rid for Kun or Morata next week. This is my point.

      I think this is the proper way to referee derbies. Not awarding mostly defensive players for making mistakes and losing the ball in the back by giving them made-up fouls, letting the game get a little ugly and thus the tempo is higher. There’s a fine line before it gets too ugly and dangerous though, like it got just now.
