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

    While selling Richa, I won't get anything more than 6.6, having bought at 6.5, right?
    So, I guess I can wait till his value drops to 6.6 before shipping him out?

    1. Royal5
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Wrong

    2. Holmes
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nope, if you wait till he reaches 6.6, then you will only get 6.5

    3. Botman and Robben
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Till 6.7

      1. Botman and Robben
        8 years, 1 month ago

        2 more more and a Robbo assist in there.

    4. Ben the Mee
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Err no sell any lower than 6.7 and you sell at buying price

    5. Baberto

    Well Aubameyang looks really sh*t for 11m, lacazette looked sharper than him when he came on , done know why arsenal don't start laca more often .
    This has been miserable week , can't even check my score..lol
    Salah to turn up the heat , hopefully.

    So 14 from 6 is actually a decent score by the sounds of it haha.

      mind the gap!

      Suits the description

    King 9 pointer locked in!

      Patient keepers rewarded 🙂

    I think Luke Skywalker might have to be subbed.

    He's been absolutely taken out by a massive Wampa there...

    1. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽ï…

      han solo just failed to score too...

      1. Bartowski
        8 years, 1 month ago

        He's just working out his aim, I still have faith in him.

      2. Business Cat

        He should be frozen in carbonite for such a poor performance!

    Salah Hattie Loading......

  8. Dynamic Duos
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Such a plum fixture Everton v Huddersfield that Walcott is the ideal replacement for Richarlison

    1. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽ï…

      0-0 incomming

      1. Gazpilicueta
        8 years, 1 month ago

        *incoming

        let's hope your predictions are as bad as your spelling.

  9. DJDave1979
    8 years, 1 month ago

    If you have 0 points you are not losing that much ground v the average. But lots of big players still to play.

  10. RÏɠBY
    8 years, 1 month ago

    i guess the foul throw decisions in the first game should have been a warning for twitchy card refs 😉

  11. jomikijiq
    8 years, 1 month ago

    People thinking about Bennett. Won't Dendoncker eventually take his place? His preferred position is in midfield, but can't see him replacing Neves/Moutinho.

  12. COYS.

    Richarlison is red flagged .. so he won't drop in price right ?

    1. Rainer
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He will, but it'll take more transfers out.

    2. Netley Lucas
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Could see triple drop

  13. PRENO
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone else bottle Mane captain and opt for Salah due to popularity?

  14. noahzark22
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Salah playing prevents a Richarlison VC from taking effect!

  15. jia you
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Thank Jebus that I scored well over the past two weeks as this one is gone out the window now barring a BHA performance now and a Hazard + Alonso masterclass!

  16. Gilbo88

    Does anyone remember their lowest ever GW score? I’ve definitely got a few in the 20s but can’t remember any lower than that. Could be in the teens this week if Salah blanks

    1. The Head-Ake
      8 years, 1 month ago

      19

  17. Citizenkane91
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Jump aboard Silly Season, fellahs!

    Laughing my ass of at all these 7 points, -4 for Richarlison posts . . . feeling very muh schadenfraude at the moment.

    12 points with 4 to go. "Any good?" XD

  18. The Royal Robin
    8 years, 1 month ago

    A) Richarlison & Auba out > Hazard & Zaha in
    B) Richarlison > Walcott

    1. The Royal Robin
      8 years, 1 month ago

      A would be for -4.

    2. The Head-Ake
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Wait till tomorrow. Can't say yet.

    4. MMN
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Auba injures?

    5. jomikijiq
      8 years, 1 month ago

      definitely B

  19. FPL Scoop

    8 years, 1 month ago

    Any news on if Auba knock is serious?

  20. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    What a miss by mane

  21. tiger

    8 years, 1 month ago

    Mane puts it wide, after Salah sets him up

  22. 420king
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Mane close. Pass by Salah.

  23. CloudSky
    8 years, 1 month ago

    What a start would this be.

  24. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Mane close 🙁

  25. fiveyears

    8 years, 1 month ago

    Richardson's red is going to get overturned isn't it? Be amazed if they didn't appeal

    1. 420king
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nah.

    2. Sasquatch Slayer
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Be amazed if they do . Clear head butt

        It looks incredibly soft on social media, will watch the highlights later.

    3. El Lobito 10
      8 years, 1 month ago

      It would be hilarious if so, after all the jerky knees kick him out today

  26. Rainer
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Mane close, Salah big chance created.

  27. Make United Great Again
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Salah & Mane link up begins

  28. El Lobito 10
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Gundogan, good shout or not?

    1. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I think so... waiting though

      1. El Lobito 10
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Why do you think so? Isn't regularly involved in attacking points. Alternatives like Maddison might be better

  29. jia you
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Ok, goodnight, off to play some tunes over a beer. Can't be watching this game with only Mane!
    GL all, l8r!
