A breathless day ends at Anfield, with Fantasy managers doubtless expecting another glut of goals and points as a rampant Liverpool take on bottom club Swansea City.

The scene is set for Mohamed Salah to bookend Harry Kane’s 17-point haul that started proceedings in the early kick-off. The Egyptian has fallen behind the Spurs striker in the Golden Boot race but boasts an incredible 11 goals and three assists from his previous 11 Gameweek outings. Like Kane, he’s backed by 1.1 million captaincies.

Meanwhile, Roberto Firmino picked up over 244,000 new owners ahead of this evening’s clash, having produced double figures in successive matches and three times over his previous five Gameweeks.

Jurgen Klopp’s rotation policy is eased as Firmino starts with Philippe Coutinho in what appears to be a front three for Liverpool. Sadio Mane is again the fall-guy as he drops to the bench. The changes are mainly limited to the defence, as Joel Matip returns from injury to oust Dejan Lovren, while Trent Alexander-Arnold starts at right-back for Joe Gomez. Both drop to the bench.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Will Christensen be back on Saturday? Quite frustrating to miss out on one of the few clean sheets of the week because of "illness" -_-

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Probably, but wait on news

    2. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      especially when brought in for a hit

    3. Shake n Bake

      Prob just had a hangover

    4. jay01
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah he was basically rested.. we didn’t need him for today’s game

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

      Depends on if he had the flu, man flu or Rooney flu.

  2. barracuda

    What to think of this? Am I laughing? Sure I am. 57, 3 City to go, Kane non owner. comoooooon

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

      2 FT too 🙂

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

      Don't be scared of Kane, it can be done 😉

    3. jay01
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Think you’re crazy not being a Kane owner

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

        green darts only.there is always a way bro:)

    4. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Have sterling and otamendi left, on for 75 and no kane either, good week! Now to save a ft for the double 🙂

  3. Shake n Bake
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Richarlison > Lingard or hold for home game against Swansea?

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I'm holding

    2. Please Help I Don't Kn…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Hold

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

    Any early suggestions? 1FT, 1.2M ITB.

    DDG
    Christensen Otamendi Long Dunk
    Salah(vc) Coutinho Hazard(c) Sterling
    Quaner DCL

    Elliot Kane Arnautovic Ogbonna

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

      Pissed off with United and DDG. I should have ditched him on my WC previous GW.

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

    Hazard > Coutinho or Alli?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Neither this week.

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

      Hold for now, Coutinho might be rested, Hazard has Stoke, Alli has a blank

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

    Better move iyo?

    Pope (Adrian)
    Mee Dunk *Christensen Otamendi (Masuaku)
    Salah Silva Sterling Coutinho *Pogba
    Firmino (Kane Quaner)

    A) Christensen to Alonso and Pogba to Lingard -4 with 0.7m itb
    B) Give Pogba 1 more chance v Southampton and have 2 frees going into the dgw (Potential moves - Silva to Alli and Pogba to Arnie so long as there aren't any idiots causing them to rise)

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      A is just chasing past pts

      B

  7. Feanor
    • 17 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Going for Mata not Arnautovic was a big mistake unless Mata has a big game on Saturday.

    But 91 with Sterling to play is good.

  8. jay01
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    94 with just sterling left... really wanna hit 100! :S

  9. Please Help I Don't Kn…
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone gonna keep Kane during the blank? I would like to use the FT elsewhere.

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Yes. Bench

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

      I’m keeping, yeah.

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

      Keeping and playing. Maybe captaining!

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

      100%, benching him, would lose too much sv selling and buying back, not to mention two frees.

      1. Please Help I Don't Kn…
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        This

      2. Ambrosiana Inter
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Good shout...

    5. Feanor
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Yes, him and Cresswell on the bench.

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

    How accurate do people find the FFFix rank predictor?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Been rubbish lately. Will check now.

    2. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Pretty rubbish last few weeks

    3. Jar Jar Winks
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      quite accurate

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Still broken.

    5. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Looks fixed now, 8.5K predicted.

    6. MTPockets
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Fine

    7. Rainer
      • 9 Years

      Thanks!

      goes up and down like a yo-yo during games even when nothing is happening.

      a bit after matches finished it normally settles down. gives ballpark figure rather than accurate.

  11. Catastrophe
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    DDG
    Otamendi, Christensen, Kenny
    Salah, Sterling, Hazard, Mahrez, RLC
    Firmino, DCL

    (Elliot, Mee, Mariappa, Kane)

    A) Save FT, Hazard & RLC -> Son & Arnie next week for free
    B) Hazard -> Coutinho (-4 next GW)

    Cheers.

  12. Please Help I Don't Kn…
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    80 with Ota and Sterling is pretty decent I guess.

  13. The Yorkshire Pirlo
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    What to do with this steaming mess? 🙁
    Bank transfer then do Lukaku, Hazard, Richarlison > Kane, Son, Arnautovic (-4) next gwk?

    Pope
    Otamendi/Christensen/Alonso
    Sterling/KDB/Richarlison/Hazard/Salah
    DCL/Lukaku

    Elliot/Depoitre/Dunk/Masuaku

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Good plan

  14. Kante FC
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Points hit aside, would you approve of these transfers?

    Out: Hazard, Lacazette, Allen, Milivojevic

    In: D. Silva, Morata, Shaqiri, Groß

    Rest of team is:

    Fabianski, Foster

    Mee, Dunk, Zanka, Morgan, Lascelles

    Salah, RLC, *, *, *

    Kane, Lukaku, *

    1. Taking the Mkhitaryan
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      No. Stoke to stoke is not a transfer worth making

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

      Negative, don't like the players you already have but only like Silva of the players you're bringing in, certainly not worth a -8

  15. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Any Coutinho sellers around?

    Last 2 GWS have been epic!

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Yep, absolutely loving it

      1. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I thought you meant owners lmao

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

      Sold him before the arsenal game

      Also have firmino who has outscored him over those two games though

      1. Carpe Diem
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        You could've had both though.

        1. pundit of punts
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          This

          Selling Hazard has been a blessing

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

            U have firmino too?

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

          I think if sane does well tomorrow and coutinhogets benched next game it won't be a disaster that it's looking right now

      2. Here's Tom with the We…
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah sold him for Sterling, I just didn’t want triple pool.

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

      I got him gw 17 over firmino been about level wish I got both

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

        Firmino definitely a bether pick when u consider coutinho alternatives are doing well but firmino alternatives...

        1. Here's Tom with the We…
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Exactly why I kept Firm and sold Cout.

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

          Well he's gone and scored 4 in 4 since easy to say now 😆

    4. OLLY G
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I sold him 2 GWs ago 🙁

    5. Gimli son of Gloin
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Sold last week for Sterling's 13 points. Bit annoyed I didn't sell Hazard instead but 94 points last week and 99 with two to play this week lessens the blow.

  16. JJeyy
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Long term sane or son?

    1. Please Help I Don't Kn…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Son, better assets in City mid.

  17. pjomara
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    84, 3 to play Sane, Sterling, Ota.
    Hoping for 2nd 100 pointer in a row.

  18. doublyG
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Want to get Lingard in but can he realistically play 30th Dec and 2nd of Jan

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

      Sorry 30th Dec and 1st of Jan

  19. Jar Jar Winks

    someone gave klopp a tooth brush for christmas

  20. FantasyNik123
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    76, 93 and 90 (with Sterling and Otamendi)...

    Love this game!

    1. Please Help I Don't Kn…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Nice

  21. Please Help I Don't Kn…
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    All the casuals don't realise Kane has a blank cause he's the most transferred in...

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

      Getting him in now in case they forget to on New Years day

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

        They need to get their priorities straight

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

          Fear can make people do crazy things.

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

      Avoiding a price rise after which non casuals will not be able to afford him 😉

      1. Ambrosiana Inter
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Lol

  22. ZakAFC_
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Any ideas for this team?

    Pope
    Kenny, Otamendi, Christensen, Dunk
    Salah, Sterling, Richarlison, Hazard
    Morata, DCL

    Speroni, RLC, Kane*, Masuaku*

    2FT, 0.8 ITB

  23. Carpe Diem
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Early GW21 captaincy thoughts? Salah? Morata? Tempted to C Salah but he can't keep this ridiculous run up every week can he..

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Well he got a decent return this week but he didn't score - he's due next week 😉

    2. Pieterke30
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Salah C it is

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

      Salah/Sterling for me

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

    With 2 free transfers and only. 3 m in bank what moves would you be thinking?

    I am thinking RLC to Lingard to play over DCL and Christensen to Ogbonna (bench to have for week 22)

    Pope
    Kenny Christensen Otamendi Alonso
    Hazard Salah Sterling Richarlison
    Firmino DCL

    Elliot RLC Fernández Kane

  25. Dacra
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Hazard and Mariappa to De Brunye and Zanka for free?

    De Brunye becomes Alli or Eriksen for the double.

  26. Dybala10
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Best replacement for Gomez? 5.0 itb.

  27. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Imagine selling Kane.

    For a 12 point hit.

    Let that sink in for a moment.

    It looks like we were all dazzled by the charisma and the clean shaven features and the fresh new voice on the scoutcast.

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

      Tbf there was an element of luck involved with Kane, non penalty in the first game and playing against a reserve defense in the second

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

      You have a serious man crush dude - let it go 😉

    3. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      some of us make our own decisions after listening to all arguments. blind faith in one person hasnt worked too well historically
