Mohamed Salah (£13.0m), Sadio Mané (£9.8m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.3m) have all been named in a strong Liverpool signed to face Arsenal this afternoon.

The devastating forward trio have featured together sparingly in recent weeks but the trip to the Emirates means back-to-back starts along one another for the second league match in a row.

Jurgen Klopp has made changes in defence with Andrew Robertson (£6.4m) returning at left-back after missing out on the Gameweek 10 win over Cardiff.

Also coming back in is Joe Gomez (£5.1m), with Dejan Lovren (£4.9m) absent from the match squad and Alberto Moreno (£4.2m) dropping to the bench.

Alexandre Lacazette (£9.7m) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.9m) start together for the second match in a row for Arsenal, while Henrikh Mkhitaryan (£6.8m) is named on the team sheet for the first time since Gameweek 9.

Sead Kolasinac (£4.9m) is set for his first Premier League minutes of the campaign as he lines up at left-back for Arsenal.

ARSENAL XI: Leno; Bellerín, Holding, Mustafi, Kolasinac; Torreira, Xhaka; Mkhitaryan, Özil, Aubameyang; Lacazette

LIVERPOOL XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Milner, Wijnaldum, Mane, Salah, Firmino.

    7 years, 5 months ago

    Salah on 14 bps already

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      1. Red Devil Swede
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Very composed and well presented last week by Lineker.

  18. Simply Loveleh
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Has anyone seen salah bonus, what's going on

    1. JohnnyMagrinho
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Have you been watching the game?

        Fairly obvious why that’s the case mate.

        1. Simply Loveleh
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Been a great game so far just so use to seeing him punished on the bonus

      • Alnair
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Created chances, e.g. Robertson's shot, Vvds chance etc

      • ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Mark bought him this week

    2. RED PILL
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Fabinho will be hooked at half time if he dont get going. He’s so slow, looks like he’s carrying a bag of sand on his back.

    3. fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      So many people being robbed. Poor things. Such a cruel world we live in.

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Arnie 3 bonus locked?

    4. Merlinsnose
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I’d really appreciate some advise.

      I need to lose two to get in Mané. Which two from Richarlison, Fraser and Maddison?

      Thank you

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Richarlison has to go first because he only scores 2 today

      2. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Tough one.

        I'd keep Richarlison because he is playing up front.

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

          Is it though?!

          1. FPL Virgin
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah. Maddison's and Fraser's distribution stats are still excellent.

      3. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Not Richarlison after a brace?

        Other 2 maybe

      4. Goat
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Get rid of Richarlson twice

    5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Auba wide

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

      Firmino doing what he does best and defending

    7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Good game

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

      Robbo and Salah hauls with Arsenal blank would be amazing.

      1. THFC4LIFE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        This

    9. Dannyb
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Would love a parting gift from Laca

    10. JohnnyMagrinho
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Ah Fabinho. He thinks he’s a professional footballer doesn’t he. Who encouraged him to think that?

        Reminds me of that midfielder Chelsea bought from Ligue 1 a year or two ago. Every time he played he was actually a hindrance to the team. Can’t see ‘Fab’ staying in Klopp’s plans next season at all.

        Utter trash.

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Baka?

          1. JohnnyMagrinho
              7 years, 5 months ago

              Yeah that’s the guy. Spent most his time falling over/flapping at everything.

          2. JohnnyMagrinho
              7 years, 5 months ago

              Torreira, however, looks a quality player.

          3. ☈☾
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            What a game!

          4. Goat
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            What did salah do to be on 14 bps already?

            1. ☈☾
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 5 months ago

              2-3 big chances I suppose

            2. OPTA FPL
              • 14 Years
              7 years, 5 months ago

              dribble, key pass, chance create

          5. Collie01
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            Fabulous last few mins. Great intensity, Arsenal look up for it
