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.

      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

  2. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone considering a Saints player for the DGW?

    Looking good here, but no dominant player to hog the points.

    4. Richd
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Valery. Got him at 4.0

      Then Gunn and JWP highly on my radar

    5. The 5% Team
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      triple up on Gunn, Valery and JWP

      6 years, 11 months ago

      Bednarek + Redmond/JWP

    7. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

    11. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Got JWP for Pogba before the price drop
      Will get Gunn for Etheridge in GW35

    12. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

    13. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Will have one of Valery or Benarek.

      Will likely start GW34 with Camarassa for his nice DGW34, then turn him into JWP for DGW35

    14. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Valery at 4.1 is excellent value

  3. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    Don't be getting so excited about Saints assets, they don't get to play Liverpool again this season.

  6. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE

    6 years, 11 months ago

    Controversial Opinion:

    Lacazette > Firmino

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      Wouldn't say its exactly contraversional. Lacazette sharpshooter and proppa striker. Firminho more a come deep and link up imo

      1. Random Name

      2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 11 months ago

        Laca drops just as deep as Firmino does, wouldn't call him an out n out 'Number 9' either

    2. Random Name
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      CORRECT opinion

      1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
        • 9 Years

    3. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Not controversial...

    4. Epic Fail

    4. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years

    5. Mo Mané Mo Problems
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 months ago

      When Klopp mentioned the not scoring thing I felt like it was a bit like the “I’m fine” (Ross from friends).

  11. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  20. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 months ago

    These clipped balls over the top from Liverpool are so poor. You would never see City try so many of those. Liverpool need to move the ball quickly even if sometimes they lose it. They have hardly had Southampton on the run.

  21. Leao ball
