Fantasy Premier League managers were given an unexpected shock as Andrew Robertson (£6.4m) was benched for the first time this season.

Jurgen Klopp named Alberto Moreno (£4.2m) in the left-back position for Liverpool’s Gameweek 10 clash with Cardiff City.

There was relief in other areas of the squad though as Mohamed Salah (£12.9m), Sadio Mané (£9.7m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.3m) were all reunited in the starting line-up.

Glenn Murray (£6.6m) kept his place in the Brighton line-up to face Wolves despite going off with a serious-looking head injury in Gameweek 9.

Their opponents made a change for the first time in a league fixture this season with Adama Traoré (£5.5m) coming in for Diogo Jota (£6.0m).

Another week, another defensive change for Fulham. Sergio Rico (£4.4m) comes in for Marcus Bettinelli (£4.4m) in goal. Bournemouth come to Craven Cottage with Josh King (£6.4m) not in the matchday squad following the ankle problem he picked up over the international break.

Despite being available after suspension, José Holebas (£4.8m) and Christian Kabasele (£4.5m) have not gone back into the Watford starting XI.

BRIGHTON XI: Ryan; Bruno, Duffy, Dunk, Bong; Jahanbakhsh, Stephens, Kayal, Izquierdo; March; Murray

    Brought in Murray before last GW. Injured after 11 mins. Brought in Arnautovic for Murray before this GW. Murray plays, Arnie misses out. This game.......

  8. The Big Fella
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Work rival on literally double the points I have so far and I have Vardy and Robertson on the bench and Arnie not even on the bench plus likely rotation for Bilva.

  9. FPL Blow-In

      You have my team!

      1. HuttonDressedasLahm
        • 16 Years

  11. The Yorkshire Pirlo
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Was asking all morning whether to go Brooks or Kenedy.

    Ended up going Kenedy, looool typical.

    1. Ode
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Kenedy will pay off in the long run, just look at their fixtures

    Ryan is killing me these last few weeks. Almost kinda want him instead of Patricio.

  13. 4-4-who?

    Any news on hazard ? Is he playing ? Or out for this gameweek

  15. Egg noodle
    • 16 Years

    Salah needs to stop taking cocky shots

    1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      That’s exactly what he did all last season. It’s not new. It’s why he seldom gets baps, all the off target shots.

  16. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Success off for a rest.

  17. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Great couple of weeks for casuals.

      Some of these XIs today have been ridiculous.

      1. Podge
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        There are no casuals

        1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          There still are... until Christmas when 50% of teams will be dead.

    • thunder_mike
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Need a Knockaert and Robbo cameo with Arnie out, will take those two points.

    • Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

    • Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      As an owner I consider Salah’s current points as a complete fail.

      1. Smurf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Timing.

          • 14 Years
