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.

          He’s not going to score a hat trick every week though. You missed the hat trick, you just got to try and forget it and not let it sway your decision. Last week is last week, just focus on Salah and Mané v Southampton, or hazard -4.

      I have been looking for a way to assemble a team with the "big 5" (Alonso, Hazard, Mane, Salah and Aguero). You could argue that Mendy should make it a "big 6" but I can't stretch my budget that far.

      Anyway, I can get this team over the next two weeks or by taking a -8 hit this week (which I won't).

      Fab - Rui
      Bennett - Alonso - Boly - AWB - Schlupp
      Mane - Hazard - Fraser - Salah - Westwood
      Mitro - Wilso - Aguero

      The cheap defenders are actually quite good because Wolves and CP rotate very well for at least 5 or 6 weeks. Schlupp obv needs to go at some point.

      What do you think? Worth considering? 🙂

        This is pointless, literally. The optimum team will only have 2 big hitters and no fodder. You can only captain one of them.

      There's an error in the article's analysis. The first table shows salah has the fewest minutes per shot on target and Hazard the most, but the second table gives salah a rank of two and Hazard a rank of one.

      I have been trying to ditch Bavies, but always bigger fires etc... Now I really wonder if I just have to take -4 and ditch him. Rose was awful last week, but probably good enough vs Southampton. What would you do? -56% so not dropping in price yet though. But I do have risk players like Robbo, Mané, Kun and Mendy and also Kamara on my bench with two certain starters.

      PS And sorry to disturb those who are watching matches. Cannot watch them myself atm.
