The Gameweek begins within the cauldron of Goodison Park and a Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool.

From a Fantasy perspective, the main interest surrounds absent friends as Mohamed Salah misses out with a groin injury and Roberto Firmino is rested to the bench.

That pair are the two most-owned players in Fantasy Premier League, though they were also the most sold ahead of today’s deadline.

Even with those sales, over 1.9 million managers still own both Salah and Firmino and will now be looking to their bench for reinforcement.

Liverpool make five changes in all, with Andrew Robertson another to miss out. A calf problem puts pay to the left-back who, like Salah, goes into Tuesday’s Champions League second leg with Manchester City as a doubt.

Robertson was brought in by 61,000+ managers ahead of Gameweek 32, making him the third-most bought defender last time out.

Sadio Mane does start for the visitors and will go in search of his sixth successive return having produced three goals and three assists over his last five Gameweeks.

As for Everton, they make just one change, though Fantasy interest in their line-up is much reduced following the blanks of Gameweek 31. Wayne Rooney (10.1%) remains their most owned player, with Jordan Pickford (7.9%) likely to be the most popular among active squads.

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

    Imagine your team have a final second freekick to lump into the box and you get called for being offside.

    Then imagine you actually get paid for that.

    Dire match.

      Big Sam's reaction to this said it all

        I'd dock them a week's wages.

        Not even joking, absolutely farcical display.

    :joy: at Big Sam yelling "WTF was that?!" after the last offside chance. Great way to sum up this derby performance from the blues.

    My pre WC team is already 22 from 3 (Pickford, Baines, VVD).

    Now watch Daniels, Schindler and Wilson all have a field day too. Useless lumps the lot of them.

      Daniel goal+cs.

    you've got to be happy with that firmino 1-pointer cameo blocking all those potential filthy bench points. lol

  15. FPL Blow-In

    Does Southgate have to pay to attend the games?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      He'd have to pay if it was my club. Normal tickets too.

    2. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      Fa pay.

      1. dark91
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 27 days ago

        That makes sense

        1. Big_Andy_GAWA
          • 14 Years

          Were you being serious with that question??!!

          1. dark91
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 27 days ago

            Actually yes. I was curious to know if the England manager pays to attend the games or not since many clubs are not owned by English people

  21. Chucky

    moral of the story here is you all should have WC'ed last week

    1. Patch
      • 8 Years

      Why? What's changed...

  25. BERGKOP
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 27 days ago

    Yawn fest. Thanks Sam. If Everton wanted to break the drought, it was against this Pool team.

    Anyone do the Yahoo game? Wondering if its worth it or is it a chew on?

    1. Fred54

      I would but can't find any updates for Netscape Navigator.

    Never enjoyed the end of a match so much

    1. BERGKOP
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      Because Everton started playing

    2. BERGKOP
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      Oh, I thought you were talking about the "end" period. Not the actual end

    3. BIGREDDOG
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      Haha yes the end of it all

  28. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 27 days ago

    lol@salah sellers.Liverpool 11 points ahead of chels with 2 games in hand and if chels win those 2 then its 5 points lead with a game at stamford bridge.that is surely too close for comfort.Surely salah plays 90 mins vs bou and stoke(if fit)

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      So you're saying he may not be fit?

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 27 days ago

        we dunno right the extent of injury.Will know on tuesday

    2. Ode
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      Still won't outscore Alli, Eriksen etc.

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 27 days ago

        u dont get it .Non-salah sellers have xtra free transfers and can get kane and kaku if they want too and can be more flexible whereas alli and erik owners cant have that luxury

        1. grumpyman
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 27 days ago

          I will have Kane and Kaku in 34 for no hits. Will only need a FT if I plan to get him back in, which at the moment I'm not sure I will. I can see Liverpool getting to the CL final - if they do carrying Liverpool players is a liability.

          1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 27 days ago

            liverpool will beat real/barca/bayern really??.I am not telling everyone but those that went for a direct replacement like alli/erik.I can get jlingz for salah(if injured) to get kane and kaku for gw34

          2. dark91
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 27 days ago

            Liverpool reaching the CL final?!! By beating who?

    3. XabiAlonso
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      What if you sold salah for hazard and he gets 15 points

    4. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      chelsea won't win all games
      burnley , southampton and westham .. surely won't win those with that form

    5. Jigger & Pony
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      Think he will play BOU and wba. Rested vs STO.

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 27 days ago

        u sure liverpool went through in cl 100%.U sure liverpool will win without salah .lol

    6. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      Lol@ coping Salah owners

    7. grumpyman
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 27 days ago

      Might play 60 mins in both. Could be enough for a haul. BUT, I think Liverpool's mind will be elsewhere, and if the team is underperforming Salah will get less chances during his reduced pitch time.

  29. Monkey Hanger

    Kane hat-trick and captained. 🙂

  30. Feloh
    • 9 Years

    so it's consensus that regardless of the gw that you WC, more often than not the returns are not realised after just a single gw

    1. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Of course
