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

      If Hazard doesn't play this weekend I could be calling upon my 3rd Wan Bissaka. 1st time using a full bench

      1. Critical Observer
        • 9 Years

      4. Critical Observer
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        ...which is just as well, since I have 14 bench points so far this season... 12 of those courtersy of Wan Bissaka GW1.

        I’m not sure “everyone” as you put it is correct. It’s quite a large generalisation.

      8. TyroneGAA
        • 8 Years

    9. Rainer

      1. Critical Observer
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Imagine if the other players he keeps passing to scored every time - he would have 30 assists! That's a lot of fpl points.

        1. George Sillett
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

            • 9 Years

      1. Patch

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

        nope. could be a premium feature now?

        1. Van der Faart
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          It wasn't premium last week. Doubt they'd have changed that mid season

        7 years, 5 months ago

        usually i need to refresh a few times or click in autosubs, and click again to don't count subs.

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

          Normally a reload squad works but live average shows 0 points for me. Odd.

          1. Van der Faart
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Wilson won the pen himself.

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

      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Shaq should play instead. Miles better.

    21. Differential C (Mark)
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Robbo no show is fine as long as Ben gets CS

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        We all know he's gonna randomly come on in the 91st minute.

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