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.

    Is Dropping Kun for Lacazette (who is on looking good and has easy fixtures) to free funds to upgrade Pedro -> Hazard worth the risk of not owning Kun? Dilemma 😀

      You seem to forget that Kun himself also got a 20pt haul. Unless he gets rested an/or dropped I don't think it's wise to drop esp given the fixtures.

        Well I am resilient to take the obvious move (Salah or Mané) as I would like to keep them doubled up for a while longer.
        Another option I could fund Hazard with is downgrading Mendy to a 4,5m defender. That would allow me to keep Kun. I am a bit worried with Rotation though, where I am convinced Hazard will play every PL game he is fit. Same goes for Mané/Salah to a certain extend.

        More detailed injury news could be helpful to make that choice, but I guess it is a bit early for that...

      I did the opposite transfer 3 gameweeks ago and lost out on 6 points. Not sure about going the other way, though. The Hazard transfer is worth it, but there could be a better way to fun it.
