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.

    Sterling not going to drop now is he, you flaming amateurs.

    1. langey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      might still drop if they are being transferred in on wc

  2. fr3d
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    This is not a drill. Kiwi has captained Hazard.

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      😮
      Maybe, just maybe Anderson also gets one in future

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      lol

    3. SADIO SANÉ
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      that shouldn't be allowed

    4. F_Ivanovic
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Of course he has. He only looks at recent form and Hazard outscored Mane, Salah and Vardy combined last game.

  3. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Mane and Robertson have been on my WC 34 plan. Both on mighty one point this evening, change plan? 🙁

    1. FPL.team
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Because of one game?

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        Jokes mate, plan is set ...

  4. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Hazard (c) -> Mane (c) at 18:59 not looking so good now 🙁

    1. elchilangles
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      did the same 🙁

  5. Wirtzle Gummidge
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    I was certain I had given the armband to Hazard, checked my team to see it is on Salah. Not sure how to feel really.

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      At least he scored,

    2. Wirtzle Gummidge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      I clearly didn't hit conform, Auba first on my bench whom I brought in for Aguero who was first bench week 32.

    3. CostaCoffee
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      This happened to me the week Hazard scored his hat trick, found out at half time it wasn’t on him, devastated

  6. davies
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Which players to buy/sell tonight if on wildcard for price changes?

    1. Konstaapeli
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Sell the one's you don't want that are dropping.
      Buy the one's you want that are rising.

  7. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    That Salah goal celebration.

    I have not seen chest hair like that since Ryan Giggs scored against Arsenal in that FA Cup semi final reply back in 1999

    1. JJO
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Lot of Ronaldo type princesses in modern football

  8. Richd
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    18 from 4 and captain not played yet

    After a horrendous few weeks I’ll take it and run.

    Night all

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Good score, got 17 from 3 including Salah (C)

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Your team isn't properly linked 🙁

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Henderson? Long?

      1. enrico.palazzo
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        At a guess

        TAA, Salah, Firmino

  9. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    So Hazard just needs an assist and a clean sheet without bonus. Think Hazard (C) could be the real winners this week.

    1. Richd
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Don’t jinx us

    2. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Or vardy

    3. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Third time lucky

    4. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Higuain 😉

  10. JJO
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    To be fair 75% of those Salah dispossessions are really bad passes to him that he didnt even had a full control on the ball before losing it

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      😀

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Of that 75%, about 75% of the passes were made look poor thanks to his touch.

      1. JJO
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        yeah he lost his first touch,its all about confidence there
        But really those passes when he is on the edge of 16m with back to the goal and when he is on the flank...those should be much better
        But its Fabinho Milner etc,not Silvas KDB etc

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      "Enough is enough" said I here before ditching Salah for Mane. Famous last words.

  11. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Feels like a huge win coming out of tonight with a small green with Salah Robbo & Trent

    1. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Same here with salah Mane Robbo, none captained

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Exactly the same here ...

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Likewise. Taking it and running.

  12. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Neville must be choking on every word 😀

    1. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Carra is rubbing it in to him hard.It must be torture for Gary indeed.

  13. Eric Banternaaa
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Anyone enabling WC tonight?

    Plenty of price rises/drops happening tonight.

    What’s the template team?

    1. moment
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Already done, brought in the likely risers...

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Already triggered hours ago

  14. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Feels like points left out there with TAA sub on 58 and dumb Mo yellow

    1. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Better than having Robbo,Mane.

      1. GENERATION X
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        Yeah but I’m meaning those two had bonus chances that went astray.

  15. The 12th Man
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Anyone going Ederson,Laporte on WC?

    1. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Sensible if not chasing

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        Chasing but my ML leader has no City defence and no WC or BB

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      defo

    3. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Possibly Laporte at least

    4. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Possibly but still fancy Aguero and sterling double up

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        Probably only going with one of them.

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 8 days ago

          I’ll be bench boosting in 35 so got cover, plus it’s a bonus that the double is a couple of tough games as they will play their strongest team

    5. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      No, just Sterling

  16. zon
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    First WC draft while watching the game. Thoughts?

    Foster Ryan
    Trippier TAA Kola Duffy Valery
    Sterling Mane Eriksen Son JWP
    Laca Jimenez Deeney

    1. Dave Bauer
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Almost identical to mine. So obviously it’s amazing 🙂

    2. CostaCoffee
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Looking like mine

    3. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Not sure I can draft a team sans Kane

  17. Jigger & Pony
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Liverpool v Wolves GW38 will be an interesting one... tough fixture!

    1. SADIO SANÉ
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      not if Wolves have sealed 7th with have a cup final coming up

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        not if Wolves have sealed 7th place with a cup final coming up

        1. Dave Bauer
          • 16 Years
          7 years, 8 days ago

          What about if wolves have sealed 7th with a cup final coming up?

          1. SADIO SANÉ
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 8 days ago

            typo the first time 😉

            1. Dave Bauer
              • 16 Years
              7 years, 8 days ago

              Haha 🙂

    2. Lingard’s Shin Guards
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Yeah will be a good watch if the title race stays as close as it is

    3. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Hopefully Wolves has the FAC final 6 days later... If the league is still alive.

  18. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Nobody keeping Pogba for WHU next week at least?

    1. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      I will be, more inclined to ditch salah for son

    2. Eytexi
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      I'm not playing wc so yes.

  19. Whazza
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Duffy/Ryan must be serious captain alternatives next gw?

    Bournemouth and Cardiff at home.

    1. The Baby-faced Assassin
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Kane/son for me

    2. Eytexi
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Think captain is a bit much. Once captained Ben Gibson of Middlesbrough in a similar situation and got me 8×2 for 16 though.

      1. Whazza
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        Sound mad but Pool play Chelsea and City and Arsenal are away and rotate. Kane at home to Hud though, but I won't have him

        1. Eytexi
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 8 days ago

          Fair point - it'll be Kane for me, but otherwise i think I'd rather have Mané/Salah over Duffy/Ryan. Good punt though.

  20. Pep's Money Laundry
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    After watching tonight, who would u choose between :

    A. JWP
    B. Redmond

    1. Whazza
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      B

    2. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      B

    3. enrico.palazzo
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      A I would have thought by a mile. But Redmond was lively today

  21. Cruz88
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Spurs have the Huddersfield game sandwiched in between 2 champions League games Vs city over a 9 day period...maybe some chance players will be rested Vs Hudds?

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Maybe, same with most top teams tbh. Who knowsss, been so much of this both correct and incorrect recently

    2. Whazza
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Definitely, think Lucas will start over Son for example

    3. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Maybe so but would you have the guts to pick rose/moura/lamela etc in your fpl team?

      1. Cruz88
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        Haha probably not, it's more whether I splash out on Kane or not

    4. Ron_Swanson
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Nah they need to qualify next year

  22. Tsparkes10
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Up to 60k from 70k with 8 to play Inc Haz C. Hoping to break into 50k. Goodluck lads

  23. Flynny
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    This could eat me up all week.....best wildcard option...

    A...robbo and rash

    B...TAA and laca

    Thanks

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      B

    2. Lingard’s Shin Guards
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      B

    3. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Actually... Hmmmmm. Personally will probs get none of the 4. Prefer Laca to Rash though

    4. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      B united are a bit all over the shop lately

      1. Flynny
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        Thanks

  24. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    I swear that worry line between Gary Nevile's eyes has got notably deeper tonight.

    1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      😀

  25. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Leicester hammering huddersfield and Chelsea hammering West Ham is needed now!

    1. Eytexi
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      This

    2. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Yes and no

  26. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Everyone dropping Salah on WC ?

    1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      I have not had him for weeks.
      Plan on getting him AFTER my gw34 WC for the cardiff gameweek gw35

    2. Niho992
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      I will

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Had him nearly all season feels wrong to ditch ..

    4. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Done but if I have a change of heart(doubt it) I’ve only lost 0.1m in value.

    5. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Thanks all

  27. Niho992
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Salah C but not feel great, could be more. His yellow card cost me about 6 points.

    1. moment
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Not sure he'd have got the baps anyway, but yeah, 17 points but irritated about TAA and Salah costing me. Could've been worse, could've had Mane.

  28. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    12 from 3 with C still in tact ill take that, up from 80K to 71k

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      Exact same but 60k from 70k. Hopefully we both break into top 50k. Goodluck mate

      1. Bruno Bruno!!
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 days ago

        Cheers that would be lovely. Good luck

  29. windowview
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Triple spurs on WC for next GW?

  30. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 8 days ago

    Ah, Mané was the most transferred in. Explains the score.

    1. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 days ago

      I dodged a bullet there. Right up to deadline before decided not to get him
