Fantasy managers will be heavily reliant on the exploits of their Liverpool assets after a tough start to Gameweek 3.

Mohamed Salah (£13.0m), the most captained player of the weekend, will be the key focal point while Sadio Mané (£9.8m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) should make a difference too.

Salah himself has 54 percent ownership while the other members of his front three are both backed by more than 30 percent.

There will also be hopes for another Liverpool clean sheet with Andrew Robertson (£6.0m), Virgil van Dijk (£6.0m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.0m) in 19, 18 and 16 percent of squads, respectively.

Liverpool are unchanged for a third Premier League match in succession, great news for Fantasy managers currently tripled-up on Jurgen Klopp’s extremely settled side.

Meanwhile, Pascal Groß (£6.9m) was named on the bench as Yves Bissouma (£5.0m) comes into the line-up to play just behind Glenn Murray (£6.5m)

There was one change in defence with Leon Balogun (£4.5m) coming in for Lewis Dunk (£4.5m).

LIVERPOOL XI (4-3-3): Alisson; Robertson, van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold; Milner, Wijnaldum, Keita; Mané, Firmino, Salah.

BRIGHTON XI (4-4-1-1): Ryan; Bong, Balogun, Duffy, Montoya; March, Propper, Stephens, Knockaert; Bissouma; Murray

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    That is the wildest GK move I've ever seen

  5. Royal5

    7 years, 7 months ago

    Pool should just make VVD captain. Henderson is not good enough to break this 11.

    1. SweeSwee
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Obvs should be Milner

      1. twoplustwo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Agreed

        Just the kind of edge a captain needs

  6. The Train Driver

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3. Y26 Royal
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Cause I deserve a few points at least!

    4. Patch
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Hmm still think it is insane, given the other guy actually scored...

      Please Salah just two more goals, you Egyptian camel!

    3 - Robertson, Salah (33)

  14. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Alisson has better first touch than Lukaku

    1. Ron_Swanson
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Anyone called Alison does

  15. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Richarlison ➡ Wally tonight, as Walcott rising tonight probably?

    1. SweeSwee
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Walcott gone from +73 to+84 in the last 30 mins

    2. Ron_Swanson
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      push the button

  16. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    Up them BAPs, Mo Mo!

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      How do you like it how do you like it?

  17. Sahil Yadav
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Best 4.5 mid?
    Billing, Stephens, Guendouzi or someone else?

  18. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Mane is just messing everything up

  19. Woy_is_back
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Robertson red card would be sooo sweet.

    1. Y26 Royal
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      You're off my Christmas card list

    2. Patch
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I would sacrifice my Salah captain points and settle on the points from Aguero just to see that happen

    3. Differential C (Mark)
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      That would mean Moreno in, which could kill VvD CS potential for the difficult fixtures upcoming.

  20. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Salah shot blocked by mane

  22. Holmes
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    I hope Liverpool concede 😮

    Damn you Robertson...

  23. Rash
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Salah and robbo getting max bonus would be immense

    1. SweeSwee
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Agreed

    2. Y26 Royal
      • 9 Years

  26. niko mate
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

  27. Kermit Special
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Mane doesn't have Salah in his FPL team 😀

  28. COLLIN QUANER
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Get out my team Mane

  29. tm245
