All the key Fantasy Premier League assets from Liverpool’s ranks have been handed starts for their Friday night visit to Southampton.

Mohamed Salah (£13.2m), Sadio Mané (£10.1m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.3m) are the front three as expected, with the first two of those backed by around 23% of voters in the latest captain poll.

Andrew Robertson (£6.8m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.5m) flank the defence, with Virgil van Dijk (£6.6m) starting alongside Joel Matip (£4.9m).

After a lengthy lay-off Joe Gomez (£4.8m) has travelled with the squad but is not quite ready for the bench.

The only changes to Liverpool’s side that beat Spurs at the weekend are in central midfield, far away from Fantasy concerns.

Naby Keita (£7.1m) and Fabinho (£5.5m) return to the midfield with Jordan Henderson (£5.3m) and James Milner (£5.6m) named on the bench.

Danny Ings (£5.4m) misses out for Southampton as he is ineligible to face his parent club which means a start for Shane Long (£4.6m).

Jannik Vestergaard (£4.6m) is back in the side to form part of a three-man back-line with Maya Yoshida (£4.1m) and Jan Bednarek (£4.0m).

Southampton XI: Gunn, Valery, Bednarek, Yoshida, Vestergaard, Bertrand, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Hojbjerg, Redmond, Long.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Keita, Wijnaldum, Mane, Firmino, Salah.

    I HATE captain choices. Never ever right.

    1. FPL Forward Thinker

      I nailed 3 captains early: Mané, Aguero and Hazard in GWs 1,2 & 5.

      Since then only 4 double digit captains GWs 10,11,15 and 23.

      Yes some 5,6 and 9 points but generally awful captain choices.

      Usual suspects let me down, Kane, Auba, Kun, Salah, Mane, Sterling, Hazard.

    Feeling very confident with my Vardy (c) Hazard (vc) rn 😀

    1. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Other way round for me.

      1. DR0GBA
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        still good chance of returns if not better

        1. Cilly Bonnolly
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

          Yup, happy enough with my choice after this game. Was fearing a big haul for one of the other guys in my minileague who captained Liverpool players.

    2. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Gone for exactly this.

    3. JohnnyMagrinho
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Had Mane as my Vice but captained Vardy.

      Thank god for that.

      1. DR0GBA
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        good luck, hopefully Vardy starts

  9. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Wait, people are selling an inform Salah? 😮

    1. some witty pun
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      1 goal in the last gazillion games is hardly inform. But I'm likely to keep him for TC 36

    2. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Salah bps ??

    3. Lingard’s Shin Guards
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Far from inform

  10. Jealous Viper
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Any bonus for Salah?

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Doubt it

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years

  11. Cash'nBurn

    lol mane wtf

  13. FPL Forward Thinker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Ouch Mané and Robertson owners. TAA doubled your combined tally and he only played 58mins to your 180.

    1. columbo
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Bit harsh!

  14. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    20 points from 4 played. I will take that.

  15. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    He do YC good for Salah

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      *Hendo

  16. HaffNanner
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Nice parting gift from Salah before he goes on my WC. Thanks Mo.

  17. JohnnyMagrinho
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Rubbish goal by Salah.
    Lucky win for Liverpool.
    Southampton deserved to win that 8-0.
    Shocking game of football.

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

      Was a decent goal by Salah tbf.

      1. JohnnyMagrinho
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Is that double sarcasm?

    2. XabiAlonso
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Lol

  18. Richd
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    My ML rival got 3 YC in the last 10 mins. That escalated quickly!

    This is gonna be an odd GW

  19. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Taking of your shirt when celebrating a goal is so cliché.

  20. rnrd
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    What’s the rule of the winning goal regarding bps? For instance tonight has salah or hendo scored the winning goal?

    1. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Salah

    2. Richd
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Salah. As the second goal won it

      1. Richd
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Just to clarify further. If saints made it 3-2 at the end then Henderson gets winning goal

        Such a weird rule

        1. rnrd
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

          Thanks for the info !

        2. FPL.team
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

          Why weird... If Saints scored 2 then Salahs 2nd goal for Liverpool wouldn't have been enough to win the game?

      2. Napster03
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Does this means Salah will have bonus points?

    3. Garlana
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Salah did 2-1 is the winning goal.

    4. FPL.team
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Salah

  21. Rainer
    • 9 Years

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

    Mane(c) the big losers there, especially with the late YC.

    1. HonestBlatter
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Effective ownership?

      1. diesel001
