Which Liverpool midfielder should you sell to get Hazard?

Eden Hazard, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané are at the heart of Gameweek 6’s biggest dilemma.

Fantasy Premier League managers are currently assessing the best way of bringing Hazard into their teams, and those currently holding the Liverpool pair have a tough choice to make.

We’ve gone over the underlying data for the first five Gameweeks of the season to find out if Hazard is worth owning, whether it’s time to sell Salah or if Mané can match either of them.

Fantasy Football Scout members can find this information in the Members Area and read on ahead to enjoy our analysis.

    I’m a Hazard and Mané owner but wanting to transfer Salah in for this GW and a Liverpool double up. Will have to transfer out Aguero or Hazard for it. Is it worth it?

      Only if you know something we don’t.

      If Klopp doesn’t start Salah from the bench then I think he’s going to rack up a big haul of points tonight! Those who captain will do well. At least that’s what i’m hoping for!

    The reason I think Mendy will be back by the wkd is his sort of sarcastic twitter post about letting fantasy owners down. He knows if he was going to out a while he would not be joking about it.

      Hope u r right.

      Do you really Pep gives a crap about Mendy's twitter when he decides who to play and not to play?

    I just noticed something in the score table, and comparing at the individual statistic:

    Minutes per Shots on Target: shouldn't that Hazard who was third? It could change the Final Score column.

    Would love to have your opinions on my squad

    bissaka-bennett-walcott
    thinking about starting AWB in the place of milner
    Captaining esen hazard

      Impressive. I thought of getting Milner as vfm choice but will he be rotated out and take a valuable Liverpool space?

      1. Maxblues
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        I don’t think he is gonna play this week. But mendy won’t play tonight as he is still injured. So i might go with AWB and walcott as richarlison is back and arsenal defense is quite sloppy

    Stopped Mané out for Hazard on GW4 Wildcard - no regrets so far. Captained Hazard GW5 catapulted to top 10k.

    Dithering over GW6 Captain though - have Aguero, Hazard and Salah. Salah’s underlying stats look good but will he deliver. Will W.Ham raise game against Chelsea.

      Hazard’s game is too strong at the moment not to consider him. He is my choice for this gameweek again.

    On a WC atm.

    Trying to squeeze in a decent City Mid (Sterling or Dilva) and Lacazette but can't seem to pull it off with out dropping Salah/Mane.

    Any thoughts?

    Current
    Hennessey / Patricio
    Dohery / TAA / Mendy / Alonso / Wan-Bis
    Fraser / Salah / Maddison / Hojberg / Hazard
    Aguero / Mitro / Jimenez
    and 1.6 ITB

    Jimenez > Lacazatte leaves me -2.3m
    so Salah > Mane leaves me 0.7m
    short of 1.2m to do Maddison. > Dilva

    Am I just being greedy? Should I just accept I can only do the following:
    Hennessey / Patricio
    Dohery / TAA / Mendy / Alonso / Wan-Bis
    Fraser / Mane / Maddison / Hojberg / Hazard
    Aguero / Mitro / Lacazette

    Thanks guys.

    Who should be my priority for Draft transaction for the next 4/5 fixtures

    Moutinho
    Wijnjadum
    Townsend
    Yarmolenko

    I’m transfering out Meyer btw.

    Richarlison vs Arsenal's woeful defence. Worth the risk? He definitely has a point to prove after the ban

    GW6- Wildcard Team
    (.2 ITB)
    Hennessey (Boruc)
    AWB, Trippier, Robertson (Bennett, Doherty)
    Mane, Hazard, Lucas Moura, DSilva (Fraser)
    Mitrovic, Zaha, Aguero

    All suggestions welcome!

    Thoughts on Mane captain? Is he highly likely to play? Arguments against?
