Which Liverpool midfielder should you sell to get Hazard?

506 Comments

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.

    Does aguero remain a must have? I still think yes though he is testing patience.

      His ownership is so high and he's so capable of exploding in a game so I'm keeping for the time being.

        Same here. No sign of rotation either which compounds the argument. Seems like Jesus is on the mahrez sane sterling rotation roundabout not aguero

      I think for now I would hold. City Fixtures are great, ownership is high and Auba and Kane are not in good enough form yet. Only Lukaku looks well among the premium forwards but Kun should match his output over the coming weeks.

    Son playing and Moura in the bench is a good sign for the latter to start on GW6, no?

      Four players competing for 2 places (or three for 1 place, if you think Alli is undroppable) doesn't bode well imho. Although he may well start GW6, he's had a good start.

      You would think so but could go either way. Poch is unpredictable. I'd say Son needs to show some form in the second half to make me think otherwise

      From the other side of the fence, as a Pool-less Hazard owner, I’m looking at all sorts of ways to bring in Mane or Salah. Looks like it’ll have to be Mane though, depending on tonight and tomorrow. I personally can’t see the point in selling a Pool mid this week for Hazard. Funny old game.

        “Get Hazard in sooner rather than later even if it means selling one of your premium Liverpool assets. It may be worth considering this as early as Gameweek 6 in case Hazard’s price rises again.”

      Evening all!

      This week, with me on holiday (please forgive the rougher cut than usual), we talk team value a little bit but mostly talk about Nick's wildcard which hopefully is useful to those with the big chip active.

      We then move on to our features section, which covers:

      - Market Forces: our look at the movers & shakers in the FPL transfer market
      - Zombie league: our review of the ghost ship league we're running on behalf of our unspecified family members
      - All England: keeping track of our team of All-English players this year

      Finally, we take some questions
