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

WOLVES XI: Rui Patrício; Bennett, Coady, Boly; Doherty, Rúben Neves, João Moutinho, Jonny; Hélder Costa, Traoré; Jiménez

LIVERPOOL XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Van Dijk, Moreno, Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Lallana, Mane, Salah, Firmino

CARDIFF XI: Etheridge; Bennett, Bamba, Morrison, Ecuele Manga; Murphy, Gunnarsson, Camarasa, Hoilett; Reid; Paterson

SOUTHAMPTON XI: McCarthy, Cedric, Bertrand, Stephens, Hoedt, Romeu, Lemina, Elyounoussi, Redmond, Ings, Austin

NEWCASTLE XI: Dubravka, Dummett, Lascelles, Fernandez, Yedlin, Ritchie, Shelvey, Diame, Kenedy, Perez, Muto

    Is kiko fermina nailed? Seems a bargain at 4.2

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Nah. Janmaat injury. Will play next 2

  2. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    After many dissapointing weeks finally a good one. Salah (C) + Mane + Fraser + Wilson.

    Even more satisfying, did Kane + Wally for Wilson + Salah.

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

      Sexy

    2. Big Ping

      amazing you brought Wilson in ahead of his tough fixtures

  3. Differentiator
    • 10 Years

    Poor Failmino owners

  4. DV8R

    Fraser subbed

  5. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    Doubters absolutely buried 🙂

  6. moz_1983
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    This is the first season in 4 that i haven't started with Wilson as my third striker. Went King instead. Meh.

  7. Kellz86
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Oh Salah, why take that shot lol

  8. Elfozzie 42
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Mitrovic and Doherty the only flys in the ointment so far....

  9. Numb
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Salah off target -bps

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

      Always is Matt. The baps system really penalises players like him who shoot and dribble a lot... unless they are Messi and never lose possession or shoot off target.

  10. Gobigorgohome
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Mitro yellow

    1. Hect.OR 98th
      • 16 Years

      Not long until we find out.

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

      Yes

    5. JJeyy
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Possible mane now

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

      Mane most likely.

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

      Mane easily.

    8. Rover
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Mane. Winning goal bonus still to be added.

    9. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Mané at this rate.

  12. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Doherty was fouled in the box amongst all the goals. Should have been a pen but denied.

  13. Sif
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Shot or clearance?

  14. WVA
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    The one week I need Nampalys Mendy from Leicester and he's benched for the first time ffs no Robertson Arnie or Mendy

      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah... they need to be worried.

      False news

  20. Pep says
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Salah just like 'get the f**K away from me baps'.

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

      Same as all last season. The baps system penalises players like him.

      1. Pep says
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I was referring to his shot from the half way line that went wide

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

    66 with Mendy, Alonso, Richarlison and Kun to go. Show me them green apples!!

    1. diesel001

    2. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 9 Years

        Yep

    3. Salarrivederci
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

  22. Ha.
    • 10 Years

  23. Sharpe Shuffle
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Haven’t done a Saturday rage transfer in a while but Ings is a candidate today

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

      Mitro could be mine. Despite Huddersfield next week.

      Need to stay away from my phone and computer.

  24. JJeyy
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Now Salah and mane prob matching post baps

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

    I have 35 from 2 players (Salah captain and Fraser) which sounds good on the face of it but Robertson is going to be replaced by AWB who are going to get destroyed by Arsenal, Vardy is on the bench and Arnie is dead it seems. Such a bad gameweek.

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

    Big Chungles

  27. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Salah and Mane?
    Just Mane?
    Just Salah?

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

      Both

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

      Just Salah (C), but Succes, Ryan and Fraser will make up for Mane 😉

  28. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    fulham absolute shiteee.Cheers ryannn fraserr

  29. Rash
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    So nearly got off lightly with no liv attack..

  30. Numb
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Non-Salah owners win again.

    1. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      he scored a goal and 2 assists... how is a win?

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Because non owners have Mane and spare cash

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

          That

      2. Numb
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        They have Mane cpt.

        1. Konig Luther
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          no everyone, particularly after Mane got injured ... there are people with just Robertson or other defender, and other with Firmino instead

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

      Depends if they have Mane or not I’d say.

    3. jtreble
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      ... and only 9 more game weeks in LIV’s run of great fixtures. :).
