Callum Wilson (£7.0m) has been left out of Bournemouth’s starting XI as Liverpool come to the Vitaliy Stadium for the lunch-time kick-off.

The striker has picked up an injury that was not revealed by Eddie Howe in his most recent press conference.

It is a big story for the Fantasy community as Wilson was looked at as a replacement for the recently injured Marko Arnautovic (£7.0m).

Meanwhile, Junior Stanislas (£6.0m) comes in for Wilson and it’s currently unclear whether it’s him or David Brooks (£5.2m) up front alongside Josh King (£6.3m).

Equally, there was Fantasy disappointment in the Liverpool camp with Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.4m) benched. It is currently unclear whether it’s Fabinho (£5.5m) or James Milner (£5.6m) is playing at right-back.

Xherdan Shaqiri (£7.0m) keeps his place in the team and looks to be joining Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.2m) in the front three.

Bournemouth XI: Begovic; Daniels, Ake, S Cook, Francis; Stanislas, Lerma, Surman, Fraser; Brooks; King.

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Fabinho, Matip, van Dijk, Robertson; Milner, Wijnaldum, Keita; Shaqiri, Mohamed Salah, Firmino

    Salah's EO?

      What is EO

        Effective ownership. I own but didn't captain, anything below 100% EO is good for non-cappers.

    Bournemouth missing Wilson - can't pump those long balls into him

    1. *sigh*

      Ooo err missus

  3. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years

    Take Salah off early in the second half please. Needs his rest for Napoli.

    1. Four Hit Wonder
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      59th minute would do.

  4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Salah was the player I wish I owned this week out of anyone I didn't have. Bournemouth style of play and defensive frailties makes this an ideal game for him

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Offside goal from a keeper mistake

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      and I don't own auba/laca/

    3. mrwinner
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      offside goal, owners just lucky

    4. AndyCook
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Are you watching this? Liverpool look poor

    6. SirStevieG
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Now that Salah has his goal watch him do nothing for the rest of the game and get no bonus.

    7. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Salah on for 3 bps!!!

      1. Kellz86
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Let's wait til 10min after the 90 before we get too excited!

      2. Thick Of It
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        A tad early Sir.

    8. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Stop moaning you bitter non owners. It wasnt offside.

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Did you type that in braille?

        1. Marvin.
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          You should have your own show.

            • 15 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            I don't think he can see my post in hindsight

        2. Dannyb
          • 9 Years

          That tickled me, thanks.

      2. makaveli123
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Haha

      3. SirStevieG
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Yes it was.

      4. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Even Salah was expecting a offside flag

      5. Kellz86
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        honderd procent buitenspel

      6. Four Hit Wonder
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        It was offside, and real men recognize that even when they get points and baps for a lousy online game with no prizes.

      7. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Don't see the game 😉

      8. JustPark
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Even he knew. Played it cool and hope get away with it which he did.

    9. HD7
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Have Auba as Captain
      Dont Mind Salah and Kane getting braces or hattricks though 🙂

    10. Sandy Ravage
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      How many Bonus points will Salah end up with?

      1. SuperMane Returns
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Zip

      2. Vamos Los Celeste
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Only one in spite of the brace

      3. Zladan
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        5

    11. DantheManinaPan

      Crappy crap crap.

      I own Lovren, Trent, Robertson and Wilson.

      Pray for me

      1. SuperMane Returns
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Robbo is playing tho

        1. DantheManinaPan
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          I guess that makes everything OK then 😆

    12. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      54th Liverpool goal for Salah since joining in the Summer of 2017.

      One season wonder.

      1. AndyCook
          7 years, 4 months ago

          It’s not purely the goals, he looked extraordinary last season but has confirmed himself as a much lesser player than he appeared this season

      2. noahzark22
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        I FORGOT TO SAVE MY CHANGES!!!!

        We'll see how it works out.

        Have Auba as C and playing Alonso instead of Lukaku C playing Kamara.

        Either way, I wasn't planning on a Salah captan, so I'm sure that will hurt me a lot.

        1. Big_Andy_GAWA
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Rookie mistake, dude!! 🙁

      3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Fair play to Mo, i would have liked to have kept him but he was just too expensive

      4. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Salah on for 3 BAPs! Is this real life?

        1. SirStevieG
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Shame he will get zero.

        2. tiger

          Will never last...

        3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

          7 years, 4 months ago

          Or is this just Fantasy? (PL)
          Caught in a landslide
          No escape from the injuries
          Open your eyes
          look up to the skies
          and seeeeeeeeeee...........

          1. Ginkapo FPL
            • 14 Years

            WENGER IN

        4. HNI
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Hope he gets subbed at half tile to get rest got ucl

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

        Firmino slapped Salah like 10 times there lol

      6. Maddi Son
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        People acting as if that's the worst ref decision of the century. I just watched it and yes, he's offside but it was marginal at best.

        1. Marvin.
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          I bet it's extremely difficult to call them too.

        2. Team Cruel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Marginal? Either you're onside or you're offside.

          1. Maddi Son
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            So being offside by 2 inches is just as hard to call as being offside by 2 yards?

        3. Four Hit Wonder
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          For refs in normal leagues, that's clear offside and they don't even need VAR to call it.

      7. HNI
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        All hopes on Auba C now. Hope he does score a goal and assist

        1. Zladan
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Hope he starts first!

      8. Regin
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        There is no way FPL should Hawarden that as a goal to Salah. They should award it to referee mistake and this goal should not be recognised in FPL. La liga and Bundesliga use car, why not premier league? To correct this mistake, if Salah scores again, referee has to disallow it even without reason.

        1. Zilla
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          PL prefer bikes

        2. SirStevieG
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          I use a car too.

        3. IRBOX ⚽
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Silly, move along

        4. the axolotl
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          with rationale like that, shouldn't you be signing up to negotiate brexit?

        5. SuperMane Returns
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Hawarden...car....lol. think they need to bring Spellcheck in 😉

          1. Regin
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            Stupid autocorrect

        6. HNI
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          British are a bit old fashioned. They take time with technology but eventually implement with precision. Next season onwards our venting will be far less as epl will have VAR

          1. Regin
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            Bundesliga use it very correctly. They even check if there was a foul to the build up of a goal

      9. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
        • 12 Years

        No wqay those points will stand, unless Mark owns him?!

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Why do you think the lino kept his flag down...

          1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            Mark is a lino?
            Man he keeps himself busy

      10. emorybortz
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Captained Salah last week and swapped to Kane for today. Just know I’ve got it wrong both times. Apologies in advance.

        1. Les Bleus
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          You didn’t captain Kane at home to Southampton? That’s weird

          1. emorybortz
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            Thought owning him would be enough. Wasn’t sure how Southampton would play without a manager. Expected Salah to score. All seemed to make sense in my head at the time.

      11. Ask Yourself
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Let’s hope for an Auba no show Salah VC looks hungry with the linesman having him as C

      12. Old Bull
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Ha ha. Twice in the past I’ve brought in Wilson only to have him fail. It’s been in my mind all season & I’ve refused to bring him in until Arnie was injured...........until now. FAIL.

      13. Lambert Is A Goal Machine
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Question: if I bought Robertson at 6.5, and now hes down to 6.4m - if he rises back upto 6.5 will my selling price be 6.5?

        1. Bubz
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Yes

            unnecessary comment

              • 10 Years
              7 years, 4 months ago

              Funny. Dont get hurt. You should try sarcasm sometimes. Its healthy too

                    37 years old and still on a fantasy website Xabi? try again..

      14. mrwinner
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Klopp should substitute Salah off immediately out of respect for the game and the ridiculous decision from the officials to award an offside goal

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Mr Weinner, no

        2. Regin
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Salah should headbutt the referee, get himself sent off out of respect for the game. He can appeal later to not be banned.

      15. IRBOX ⚽
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        13mil is a reasonable price for consistent captaincy points. Brace incoming!

        1. Ross From Friends
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          You mean for consistent offside goalie mistake jammy points lol

          1. IRBOX ⚽
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            Top 1k senses salt 😉

              • 7 Years
              7 years, 4 months ago

              Yeah right! haha 99% of the ppl who say they're in top 1k are actually in top 1m....move along lad

            He is getting into form

            1. korbendallas82
              • 12 Years
              7 years, 4 months ago

              Bought him last round. Humble brag..

      17. Four Hit Wonder
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Auba, Sterling, Sane, Kane, Son and Firmino will all outscore Salah this GW. Even Alisson might.

        Non-owner.

        1. Les Bleus
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Cool

        2. Four Hit Wonder
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          I mean Salah non-owner. I own the others except Sane and Firmino.

      18. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        What a dishonorable man. Fpl should delete Salah from the game.

      19. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Was it offside?

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Clearly.

        2. Egbunike
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Yes it was. The assistant referee got the assist.
