    Quick poll..

    Does Haz start?

    1. MASTER ROSHI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      No

    2. drughi

    3. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      from what I am reading on these FFS blogs , looking like no 🙁

    4. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Looking at the site it's looking like a loss of confidence about Hazard start ??

      1. supersham
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Having a strong bench is crucial. I've had some nice points come in off the bench so far this season

  4. Sahil Yadav
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    A) Captain Mane
    B) Mane to Salah for free and captain Salah
    C) Hazard to Salah and captain Salah and Mane(v)

    I have my wildcard intact and 1 ft but a lot of cash itb

    1. Come on you Kante
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Go for B get Salah in his price will rise over coming weeks predict a brace vs cardiff

  5. Gameweek 10 Captaincy
    Gregor
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Salah’s at home to Cardiff, probably playing up front and maybe on pens, if you’ve got him, you surely have to captain him. If you haven’t, I would give some serious thought towards trying to bring him in if you can.

    Beyond that, who do we fancy? Can Eden Hazard bounce back after his injury and deliver the blows at Burnley? Maybe Alexandre Lacazette can pick up the points at Palace?

    Who are you captaining this gameweek and why?

    1. MASTER ROSHI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Salah if I bring him in, if not Robbo as I don't want the risk of Hazard not starting

      1. is this real
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Lol

    2. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Salah - home fixture and should be a goal fest for the reds! Ynwa

    3. drughi
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Salah because he stands out as the best option this week and my gut is telling me he will finally get a big score this week

    4. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      It's between Sterling (C) and saving the FT or transferring him to Salah (C) for free. Sterling scored three vs Spurs last season so think I'll stick with the first option.

    5. Pinturicchio10
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I fixed my defence rather than use my bank for Salah, so Mané (c) here. I think he can still score well and the rest of my team is good so should work out fine.

      • DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Salah .

      • Styles_X
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I'm going mane because I hope I can cover the salah points

      • Grounderz
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I am just gonna hide behind the couch with no Liverpool attackers, and pray for a draw or goalless game.

        1. Positive vibes
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          In the same boat, only have Robbo.

      • Positive vibes
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Will C Laca and VC Robbo. Dont have Salah or Mane and no clear info about Haz.

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Kun is your best option is

      • reekster
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Being Salah-less, and uncertain about Hazard's minutes, I'm plumping for Mané and hoping he can at least match Mo...
        *crosses everything*

      • Bedknobs and Boomsticks
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Hazard. If he's fit, i got me an awesome differential captain pick. If he's not, the VC comes in.

      • Schafsalat
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Salah (c) for me. I'm keeping Hazard though, will only sell if he's out for more than 2, maybe 3 weeks.

      • Old Wulfrunian
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Salah

      • Pipermaru
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Aguero (best striker in PL in the last decade)

        No Salah or Mane, besides every game starts at 0:0, it is not given that Liverpool roll over Cardiff and even if they do and Mo scores a hattrick, it's 30pts not some end of the world. Next week MCI plays SOU and I wonder what all these people selling Aguero/Sterling now will do after deadline, staring at their team with 3 LIV players away to Arsenal in GW11 🙂

        I've seen so many Liverpool's poor performances after great game in CL, eg. this season when they struggle to beat Brighton in GW3 (1-0) or vs Stoke last season (0-0).

        1. El Lobito 10
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Fingers crossed you're right Piper

        2. Jonny HOW SON?
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          they will roll over Cardiff

      • irfanm66
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        i had the captaincy on hazard all week but after lack of info on hazard's recovery, changed it to Salah last night...

      • Mingo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I deliberated too long and now priced out of Salah. Brought in Arnie and KDB. Hopes pinned on Hazard (C), Robbo (VC). Massive sofa this afternoon for me.

        1. Andy_Social
          • 13 Years

          Same 2 for me, but the sofa comes out tomorrow 😉

        Robertson(C), Alonso(V).
        So need Alonso to play and Robertson not to come on for a cameo.

    6. MASTER ROSHI

    12. GoonerSteve
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Need to pick a sub out of this horrifically promising list (sorry to repost but I need help):

      Maddison
      Pereyra
      Hazard
      Frazer
      Arnie
      Mitrovic
      Kun

      please help ffs.

      1. WhatWouldYourZlatanSay
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Tough. I'd say Pereyra.

      2. Kanga roo
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Toss a coin between Pereyra and Fraser.

      3. Taking one for the team
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah tough, I’d probably go Maddison. Think westham will do a number on them today

        1. GoonerSteve
          • 16 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          I’ve been leaning that way too. Pereyra is quite attacking and Watford are in form with a good fixture. Maddison is so consistent though with his output and Frazer can be the most explosive, god only knows, might even bench Arnie.

          1. Taking one for the team
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            I’ve just bought Pereyra in for the reasons you mention, think he could rack up a few points today and the next few games. Maddi obviously a threat but not done much for a few games, I think it’s out of him or Fraser for me, I wouldn’t bench Arnie

            1. GoonerSteve
              • 16 Years
              7 years, 5 months ago

              Agree

            2. GoonerSteve
              • 16 Years
              7 years, 5 months ago

              Also, as I have Fabianski, think I might go all in and hope Leicester blank. Maddison benched.

              1. Taking one for the team
                • 10 Years
                7 years, 5 months ago

                Good choice

    13. Grounderz
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Looks like I’m going without a Liverpool player. Good luck to me.

      Pat Hamer
      Trippier Robbo Shaw AWB Peltier
      Hazard Sterling Moura Fraser Stephens
      Aguero Laca Wilson

      If I can’t decide by deadline, looks like rolling the FT.

      1. Grounderz
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Sorry, I mean Liverpool attacker.

      2. drughi
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Robertson plays for Liverpool I Think and he is basically a winger

      3. Positive vibes
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        In the same boat

      4. thunder_mike
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Moura > Maddison or Shaquiri

    14. The Overthinker
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Any news on Hazard?

      And what's with vardy not starting?

      1. Pinturicchio10
          7 years, 5 months ago

          No
          Still think he'll start

        • Kellz86
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Nothing concrete about Haz playing or not as far as I've seen: Hold if you have him with a decent sub in first position but don't buy in this week if not.

          Vardy apparently with stomach complications

                I am in the same position, I just don’t think lost both Sterling and Lacazette is worth it.

                When will Gunnarsson be 4.3 million? Really want Mendy next wek - Gunnarsson will then be rotated together with Bennett and Zabaleta.

                Richarlison has made 13 Premier League appearances against 'big six' teams, but has not scored a single goal and made just one assist (1,063 minutes played).

                  Not sure. I'm facing the same decision. I think probably yes, though it's a huge shame, vardy had been looking like a great pick imo.
