Captains

Vote in the Captain Poll for FPL Gameweek 12

Liverpool options are expected to dominate the Gameweek 12 captain poll, which you can now cast your vote in.

The Reds are hosting Fulham, a side without a single a clean sheet in the first 11 matches. In that time Slavisa Jokanovic’s men have conceded 29 goals, averaging 2.63 per game.

Meanwhile, Liverpool have scored 12 times in five league matches at Anfield thus far which includes a goalless draw with defending champions Manchester City. Take that fixture out of the equation and Jurgen Klopp’s outfit have averaged three goals per game there against clubs outside the top six in 2018/19.

Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) will almost certainly be the front-runner in the poll. No Liverpool player has amassed more than his 67 points so far this season and he is also the most popular among Fantasy managers too (35.2%).

Sadio Mané (£9.8m) may not be too far behind the Egyptian with 33.8% ownership and 65 points so far, just two fewer than Salah.

Andrew Robertson (£6.4m) may be considered by some, given that Fulham have gone two favourable matches without a goal.

It will be interesting to see how many look beyond Liverpool’s incredibly appealing fixture.

Manchester City assets such as Sergio Aguero (£11.4m) and Raheem Sterling (£11.1m) headlined Gameweek 11 with more big scores at home but this week they host rivals Manchester United.

The Red Devils have conceded six goals in the last four Gameweeks, only five clubs have conceded more in that time, but Fulham have still shipped more than double that since Gameweek 8.

Provided that Eden Hazard (£11.3m) is able to return to 100% following his recent back injury, he may also be considered by some Fantasy managers. Chelsea are at home against Everton, who have averaged 1.8 goals conceded per away match so far. Furthermore, Hazard has registered a goal or an assist in all but one of his home appearances this season.

Possible options among the differentials are Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.9m) and Alexandre Lacazette (£9.7m) who face Wolves this week, both with returns across their last two home games.

Harry Kane (£12.4m), fresh from a statistically strong match at Molineux, could be considered as an alternative as Spurs travel to Crystal Palace, while the in-form Marko Arnautovic (£7.1m) faces Huddersfield Town.

    Just realized Sane has got retunrs in every single game he started in pl so far

    3 goals 2 assists in 5 starts. If only he was a regular. 9m is a good price

      He’s no Lamela

      True. Rotation has meant I haven’t owned a City mid all season.

      1. HurriKane
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        owned bilva for 5 gws at the start. got me only 1 goal

        its sterling or none for me

    Why couldn't we have 2 goals from a Serbian last night do?

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Because he’s crap

    2. kalmoffit

      Huddersfield have steel

  3. Regin
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Lesson for everyone. Don't underestimate teams in champions league. Playing sturridge, Lallana and Matip. What a joke. Liv will now likely not qualify for knockouts unless they manage a result away to psg.

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Still top so unlikely...

    LDLDWWWD*L*

    2 of those wins were versus Huddersfield and Cardiff. Liverpool are certainly not in form.

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Quite patchy

      1. Zilla
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Results don't always tell the performance

  5. Jimmy Boy

    Currently chasing. Would you consider TC Salah or even TC Mane this weekend?

    1. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      No

    2. Bird Raymond

      I was, but not after watching this!

    3. Jimmy Floyd

      • 5 Years

      I was all set to but having doubts now watching pool. Then again it’s fulham

  6. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone else think Arsenal (H) is an amazing fixture for Wilson? Like he could seriously haul in that one too?

    1. Pieterke30
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Sure

    2. MTPockets
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Don't know about amazing, but Ars do have an away cs problem.

        1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah I mean I see a really high scoring game.. not a had fixture by any means and AWB covers him for City so his fixtures are decent enough imo

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

        Thinking of getting him for Mitro this week, yeah would certainly keep for Arsenal game.

      • HurriKane
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        city only scored 1 against arsenal.

        what makes you think bournemouth will score more ?

        1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          City scored 2 and that was at the Emirates!! They are worse away from home mate

      • kalmoffit
        • 10 Years

        We had this last week

      2. Collie01
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years

        What is that match about?

        1. Team Cruel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

      3. Deulofail
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        21 more goals incoming

        1. R.C
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Thoughts on Deulofeu? over Brooks?

          1. Deulofail
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Definitely would over Brooks due to fixtures. Watford aren't much less attacking than Bournemouth, especially with the Deunator back in the action!

    4. R.C
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      What should be the bench order for this lot be?

      1. Brooks
      2. Doherty
      3. Diangana

    5. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      I think it's a bit of a strange decision to take of TAA at half time considering the circumstances.
      2-0 down away in the champs league and you replace an attacking fullback with a more defensive one. All the more strange considering Klopp's style.

      Thought it might be worth mentioning this for those of assuming he's just been dropped, in case there is more to it.

      1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        *off and *those of us

        Typing is getting worse

      2. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        He has let everyone past him, if they want to keep the ball then they need to defend better

        1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Ok fair enough, tbf I haven't been watching!

      3. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        He had been particularly bo**ocks tbh.

    6. R.C
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Anyone else going for Hazard (C)?

      1. Lucackadoodledoo
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I think Hazard is the way to go this week. Salah not in form and Hazard will be nailed and all systems go imo

      2. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Wouldn't if you have Salah and Aguero this week

        1. R.C
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Have Mane

          1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            then will cap hazard imho

        2. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          kun vs utd over hazard vs everton are u kidding?

      3. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        tempted but fulham are fulham they conceeded 4 vs cardiff ffs.Still confident on dumping salah after fulham tho after his horror show today

    7. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Will this be the year Liverpool win sliverware?

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        No. 3rd in league. Knocked out in 4th round of the FA cup.

    8. Monkey Hanger
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Mo just not right. Is he?

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Glorified Aaron Lennon.

        1. JustPark
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          *Wright Philips

      2. Regin
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Better than Mane who is not doing anything.

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Mané has been much worse, yep.

    9. Mini Mahouse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson -> Arnie for free?

    10. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Liverpool resorting to long balls into the box and long throws.

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        they have been just awful in recent matches

        1. George Sillett
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          So in the last 3 matches 4-0, 4-1 , 1-1
          That's awful is it ?

          1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            3 wins vs crap red star,Huddersfield(scraped), Cardiff in last 9 for the so-called title favorites is awful

    11. R.C
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Auba to outscore Aguero come the end of the season?

      1. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        No

      2. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        no cash to be made on that bet

      3. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        City are too freescoring at home

      4. Regin
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Dream on.

    12. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      VVD will score one of these days...

    13. R.C
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Shaqiri has been missed immensely today.

    14. sminkypinky
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Posted top page and I’m open to other suggestions but my funds are so split I really have few chances. Opinions needed!
      2Ft’s
      Ederson
      Tripp Robbo Mendy Alonso WB
      Salah Haz Fraser Neves Murphy
      Kun Wilson success

      So if not Salah out no other obvious way to get Arnie in is there?

      1. korbendallas82
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I would chop one prem defender befor removing Salah ahead of Fulham match.

        1. sminkypinky
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Maybe you’re right. Still a long way from success to arnie though

          1. korbendallas82
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Your right. Probably need more than a 2 way move. But i would still keep Salah.

      2. lespaul
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Trip out before salah

      3. Deulofail
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        -Alonso + Success > 4.2/4.3 + Arnie if you can afford
        -Murphy + Wilson > Hudson-Odoi/Gibbs-White + Arnie
        Neves + Wilson > Diangana + Arnie
        -Fraser + Wilson > Milner/Meyer/Deu/Moutinho/Pritchard/Diangana + Arnie
        -Ederson + Wilson > ~5.2 + Arnie

        Lots of options 🙂

        1. sminkypinky
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Thanks a bunch mate! 🙂

          1. Deulofail
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Now worries, SminkyP

        2. sminkypinky
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          You really went through the options. Made me glad to see you would be willing to find that out and type it here. Good form!!
          The trouble is none of those options really do it for me... sorry. 😀 I will have to keep digging.

          1. Deulofail
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            I'm a fiend for fixtures, so I wouldn't really want those Bourneouth players in my team. I'd sell at least one so I had the option to bench the other if I wanted to. But plenty of people still buying Wilson regardless, and I've been wrong a thousand times before 🙂

            1. Deulofail
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 5 months ago

              I don't have Salah, but selling him would be a waste imo. Sell the following week or wait until GW17/20 sorta time, I would.

              1. Deulofail
                • 8 Years
                5 years, 5 months ago

                You can always wait until Newcastle to buy Arnie too. I wouldn't even buy him this week. I'd just make a single move to improve value, e.g. downgrading Neves

                1. sminkypinky
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 12 Years
                  5 years, 5 months ago

                  Bou twins stay out this week and probably Fraser gets the boot the next.
                  I’ll look into Neves becoming Maddison and see about Arnie later on. Really nice of you D!

    15. Forza Papac

      Brugge score a 4th

    16. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Liverpool missing a creative midfielder (Coutinho type figure) in this match.

      1. HurriKane
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        but liverpool fans were saying they wont miss him since they got Keita ?

        1. diesel001
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Shaqiri?

      2. Gudjohnsen
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Exactly. Need to buy in january.

        1. Make United Great Again
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          They bought Shaqiri and Keita.

          1. Collie01
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 5 months ago

            Both missed in this match imo.

    17. ESilva23
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Any concerns growing that Fulham is a rest match for Liverpool's biggest names?

      1. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Not after this result. No rest for Liverpool except for Sturridge, Lallana, Matip and TAA

      2. Ha.
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        If anything they need momentum

        1. Gudjohnsen
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Never a rest.

      3. HurriKane
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        or a game to bounce back after embarrassing defeat to minnows against red star ?

      4. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Nope, International break right after and Pool are chasing City now so can't afford rest players

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

        Slight concern for Robbo, as always after CL match.

        He gets slogged in int duty too unfortunately.

    18. Surfeit of Lampteys
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Liverpool nothing short of abject tonight. You wonder if this is the beginning of the end for them. Not that they ever won anything when they were decent! They certainly won't be winning anything this year. Even that feted defence has been poor tonight.

      1. Regin
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Terrible performance. Sturridge gonna be the scapegoat as he missed a dolly. This group is literally the group of death.

        1. Surfeit of Lampteys
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 5 months ago

          Sturridge defo will be blamed. Not that any of the usual front three are in much form

      2. *Reformed-Character*
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        Beginning of the end for Liverpool ? Are you alright ? I don’t think anyone wonders that.....

        1. Surfeit of Lampteys

          I should have said for klopp. Obviously Liverpool will continue to not win trophies whoever replaces him.

      Currently got this:
      GKP: Fabianski (Hamer).
      DEF: Doherty, Robbo, Alonso (Wan-Bissaka, Bennett).
      MID: Salah, Hazard, Maddison, Richarlison (Hogg).
      FOR: Arnie, Aguero, Wilson.

      Nothing in the bank. Transfer made for this week. Intend to invest in Arsenal gw16, and Mendy gw17. Until then im happy with the team considering no funds, but dont want to waste transfers. Any pointers?

        Your team ain’t bad. Pretty template. Mine is basically the same but Fraser for Maddison and Mendy for Bennett. What Arsenal are you thinking Lacca?

      Seen some saying Robbo should be benched too.... lot larger difference in quality between him and Moreno than between TAA and Gomez...

        Got to remember though Robertson will be playing 180 minutes over the international break. The others won't.
