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 should be sent into space for that goal.

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Why?

      1. Marvin.
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        It's a joke.

        1. Les Bleus
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Good one.

    2. SuperMane Returns

      By whom, National Anti Salah Association?

      1. Marvin.
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Excellent.

  2. Witty Pun: Not good at this…

  3. mrwinner

    I own Robertson but I want Liverpool to concede just to wipe out Salah's owners jammy clean sheet point now

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Omg

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      How bizarre.

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

      That's just ridiculous.

    4. Rostah
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      We’ve officially reached peak “jammy” comment. Liverpool & a jammy CS

    5. MTPockets
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I'll take that to wipe out your 4 cs pts

    6. #FPLBhuna
      • 9 Years

      You weirdo.

    7. Rainer
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      You want to pass up on 4+ points so rivals lose 1 point?

      1. J T
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        2pts

        1. J T
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          For captain 😀

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

      Salah is a horrible, horrible man. He should not have allowed the referee to award his offside goal

      1. Annie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Weird

    9. jason_ni

      You lose

    10. Win'dian
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Won't mind if it's Brooks

    11. Garlana
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Surely you would prefer Robertson to keep CS get max bonus and attacking returns?

    12. clodhopper
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      If u go too the doctors they may be point u in the direction of anger management therapy

  4. Bubz

    Liverpool aint keeping a clean sheet here

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Brooks if someone

    2. Bolivian Seaman

      Liverpool playing down wind next half

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

    I'm still selling Salah for Mane next week so I can upgrade Hojbjerg to Mahrez!

    1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Mahrez is a trap, don’t buy him, I bought him and he didn’t start all 4 of the games I owned him.

  6. SuperMane Returns
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Im still confident my Robertson/Salah/Arnie to Mina/Sterling/Auba this week for a -8 will pay off in long term

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      U think?

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Nah.

    3. HNI
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Just dont panic buy salah before Jan 2 and then only will pay off. Only 1 match were salah can score bucket loads. newC home. Sterling has 3 in which he can score many in that time period

    4. Win'dian
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Won't mind if it doesn't pay off this week

    5. TerryVenables
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Selling Salah and Robertson in a -8 lolll

  7. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Was very close to bring Wilson in this gw.

    Dodged a bullet there!

    1. Bubz
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I took the bullet right to the face

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Lucky procrastination

  8. HNI
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Current world number should slide fast. His tranfer was moura to torreira! Hope his luck runs out soon as such a brash number 1. Used his tc chip as well so there is hope

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Ignore no1 this time of the year

      1. HNI
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        But his lead is mammoth! So it helps crazy hopefuls like me who have a 1/1000 chance lol

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

      What do you care? Are you #2?

      1. HNI
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

      Why you watching man

  9. Boomerang V
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    This week I did Salah to Fraser to enable Kamara to Auba... Not a good start for me... #fear

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      that's what happens when you play in fear

    Liked the way that mascot covered its face as if he was skiving off work but would somehow get recognised wearing a full body jigsaw peice and mask.

  11. Marvin.
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    It's as if some people have never seen an offside goal before.

  12. Rainer
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Milner COT

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 15 Years

      Caught on Target?

  13. Vamos Los Celeste
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    The next Lfc goal will be huge for me as a Salah Bobby owner

    1. Typo
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Why not this goal?

      1. Vamos Los Celeste
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Not enough

  14. Bellerinmondo
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Fabinho and Firmino playing is really confusing the pronunciation of the radio 5 commentators

  15. Scotty B
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    What are the chances of TAA coming in?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Very slim.

    2. Rainer
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Decent chance.

      Klopp will want Milner for Tuesday so maybe a late rest for him.

      1. Mysterion
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Hendo on and Fabinho to RB 😉

    3. Fantastisk
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Ok I'll go with 50/50 to give you the full list of options.

    Allison is a beast

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

    What a header from Alisson,

  18. SuperMane Returns

    The King has fallen!

    1. IRBOX ⚽

      Check mate? That you Magnus Carlsen?

  19. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    God VAR will be the object of so much vitriol on here next year. I can already see it.

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I don't see the point of postponing it

      1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Administratively it makes sense I guess? Plus everyone and their dog will be complaining about how unfair it is to implement it halfway through the season when they've already lost points due to dodgy calls. As it is, I think I remember reading that they're testing VAR this season, just not actually using it, so when they bring it in next season it will work better. That was their excuse anyway...

  20. J T
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Why didn’t Salah tell hold his hands up and say he was offside?
    #SterlingGate

    1. XabiAlonso
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Still suffering with that shoulder injury. Blame Ramos

      1. J T
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Fair comment

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

    This offside goal isn't fun.
    How the heck a league with such magnitude doesn't implement VAR?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Oh this again.

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      It will next season.

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

      You think it will get better with VAR? Not sure these same refs can be helped with slow-mo.

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

        Watch the Bundesliga games. See how it is implemented.

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

        I can imagine the ref going "hold up let me get my glasses on"

    So keepers have different set of rules when it comes to fouls? Ffs, he was flying into the player knees first...

    1. SirStevieG
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      He won the ball fair and square.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Damn straight.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      He won the header, as everyone on the pitch agreed.

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

      Yes, a bit different. But he was the first on the ball.

      Forwards beware.

  29. Regin

    7 years, 8 months ago

    Salah and Liverpool have done nothing except score that offside goal.

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Turn it on in the second half just as with Burnley.

    2. Annie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Ok
