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

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

        Salah hasn't left my team since the game first opened, even when he dropped to £12.7

        1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Cool story bro. He never dropped to 12.7

    3. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Got rid of Salah to fund a move for Kane. Kane(c) last week outscoring Salah(c) this week so at the moment overall it is a net win

      Great player, but a little too expensive for what he’s been delivering. Now if he starts scoring braces... then we can have a conversation

    Liverpool got so many extra points thanks to referees. Otherwise the table would look like when Pep was in Germany and Spain.

    1. XabiAlonso
      • 10 Years

      Behave

        They are probably destined to win epl like chelsea did ucl decades back. Remember last game origi goal? But think they deserve it this season after so much harsh luck before like gerrard slip and what not

        Can't see the English King scoring today.

        1. SirStevieG
          • 13 Years

          Because Chelsea are so good lately.

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

            Yeah way worse than Bournemouth

    6. The Train Driver

      The Wilson injury not a serious one?

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        No he'll laugh it off.

        (Just a pre cautionary rest I reckon, tight hamstring.)

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

        Of course it's serious, I have to play Alonso!

        1. The Train Driver
          • 10 Years

          I have 3 no shows already and it's just the 1st game

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

        They said hamstring on NBC - to me I’m thinking that’s weeks not days, but who knows, hopefully we hear soon

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

        "Callum has a slight hamstring issue, which we don't think is too bad but he misses this week. It's a big blow but Junior comes in, who is a very good player and will give us a lot of quality."

          • 13 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          They were probably banking 0 points from this game anyway, and want to give him a rest. He'll be back next match I reckon.

      5. MMN
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Someone said it was a hamstring but no clue. Wishing I sold him last minute in a WC now. Although if he’s fit for next week then would have been worth keeping as it’s GW17 and 18 that we really wanted him for.

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

          Hmm, hamstring it is ...

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

      While people are moaning about that slight offside goal, are we going to re hash that Sanchez "assist"?

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

      We need a full investigation into this linesman, I think he is a salah owner in FPL. No other reason why he does not spot an offside. Also gave salah onside on 2 previous occasions when he is off. He is trying to get a haul from salah

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

        What's his name? Will take 2 minutes to find his team for the detectives on here.

      2. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        If I were a Bournemouth player I would have a word with the assistant to say he is going to look like a fool on MoTD when all the incorrect onside decisions are shown.

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

        Investigate and find out if he has an FPL team, they don't allow betting so why FPL (Where money and prizes are at stake)

          What's the statute of limitation on the Sanchez "assist"?

          1. Forza
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            Mark has allowed the assist as compensation for the 'lol @ Sanchez owners' posts from last season.

      Hey guys, did Howe give comment on Wilson’s injury pre match?

      Cheers

      1. Kellz86
        • 8 Years

        I believe not

      Offside

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

      Why the fck couldn’t Howe have said something in his press conference about Wilson? Did the injury happen after it? That would be very “coincidental”

      These managers have no concern about their FPL responsibilities

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

        He's a fraud... lied about King and Fraser and many others too I'm sure

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

        Cruciate ligament is tricky. Some days you dont feel anything. Maybe gives away edge as well against opposition

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

          Hammy apparently mate

    21. The Train Driver
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      More VAR = less goals but more penalty goals? Focus on defenders and PK takers next year?

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

        Same as the World Cup.

        Kane essential... if only Baines was still a starter 😮

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

          Glen Murray essential

      2. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Maybe, but there will also be goals which wouldn't have been disallowed under the current system. Incorrect offside calls which won't come, and desisions reversed in favour of the attack.

        1. Deulofail
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          would have been disallowed*

    22. red devil 7
      • 9 Years

      Both Auba and Laca likely to be benched tomorrow, according to reliable sources.

        Rested for cruicial game against Quagmire

      5. HNI

        Ofcourse they wont play in u23

        Oh no, what to do now :/

      Got a bad feeling Salah will be listed as a forward next season don’t think he will be worth it then

      1. Volley127

        Less pts for goal but more chance of bonus at least

      2. The Train Driver
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        He's not worth it now either

      3. XabiAlonso
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Will be like Kane but more assists and finally get some bonus

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

        He'll be cheaper as a forward, maybe 11.5 or so.

      5. Tempestic

        Better for BAPS and hopefully slightly cheaper as well

      If Lacazette starts through the middle going for him over Aubu I think.

      1. MTPockets
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Same, if Wilson's properly injured

        • Tsparkes10

          I went Laca over him 🙂 but wildcarding so might be persuaded

        • FDMS All Starz
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          There will be the odd game when Auba will start up front due to tactical reasons

        A. Salah anderson

        B. Hazard sane

        Salah = 11.0 forward next season.

        1. Old Man
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          11? At least 12

            The downgrade will take a toll on him, like it did with Firmino
