How Liverpool’s key FPL assets compare ahead of 2019/20

With a week to go before Gameweek 1, five of the eight most-owned Fantasy Premier League assets are on Liverpool’s books.

The Reds’ players were a rich source of FPL points last season and there is optimism that they can replicate that in 2019/20, although we have had to swallow price rises with a number of their key Fantasy assets.

FPL managers will be especially keen on Liverpool in the first two months of the upcoming season, with the Reds sitting second on our Season Ticker in Gameweeks 1 to 8.

Can the Reds match their performance levels of 2018/19, though?

In our latest Numbers Game series, we assess Liverpool’s key underlying statistics from last season and highlight the numbers that matter to Fantasy bosses.

      Will Kean has stolen his number 9 jersey for Everton.. so no

        this...

        what price you think he comes in at ?

      2. pmletch

        Shame, let’s hope Kean is cheap too

      Was a week ago, Kean in now and Zaha liking our Instagram posts quicker than fans has put me off.

      Big shame too, was hoping for a breakout season for him.

      1. pmletch

        Yep! Let’s hope Kean is cheap also

    11m for a defender + midfield combo to play every week, who will you choose?

    already have Perez

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      tricky price point, Iv opted to use that 11Million in other areas and just have Dendonker & Romeu bench warming..

      Probably McGinn and Ceballos if I had to do it

    2. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Barkley , Zouma/Christiansen

      1. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Really can't believe that you suggest the 2 Chelsea defenders. Derby conceded plenty under Lampard . These 2 offer nothing in the opposition penalty box. Terrible advice.

          A if you have VVD or another Pool defender.

        2. Totti
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          hmmm 🙂
          we are in trouble now 🙂
          will go A then

          1. Ian Davis
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            Haha 🙂 It’s a tricky one, but probably a good shout as I’ve got VVD already

  5. thepuntmaster
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone else have an absolutely shocking bench and worried about it?

    Lundstram, Kelly and Dendoncker for me and it doesn't fill me with hope

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

      2 defenders with 4 very risky
      upgrade one with 4.5

      1. thepuntmaster
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I know, i know. Perez > Barkley would allow me to do that. But Perez over Barkley makes me feel a lot better

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

          out of those
          sure perez for now

    2. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Early in the season I think you must roll the dice. When fixtures get jammed up later, and TV increases , then it pays to have a decent bench.

      1. thepuntmaster
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        seems like sound advice. might well early wildcard this time out

    3. juho
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      my bench is worse
      Lundstram, Greenwood, Nketiah

  6. Totti
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    who do u rather guys

    A) digne barkley king

    B) 4.5 fraser king (deulefeu or deeney )

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      B

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

        king or deulefeu or deeney

        1. @fpl_phenom
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          King

  7. Mayor of Flair
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    How're we looking?

    Fab
    Taylor Digne Walker Dunk
    Salah Perez Sterling
    Jota Auba Rash

    Nothing worth mentioning on the bench

    Cheers!

    1. Pennywise
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      No pool defence?

      1. Mayor of Flair
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Nah too spicy. Other than that?

        1. Pennywise
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          I'd be looking to upgrade fab if I'm honest.

  8. hogree
    • 7 Years

    A. Vardy + Stones
    B. Wilson + Laporte

    1. thepuntmaster
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      B for me

  9. Maddi Son

    Recon Murray will have his minutes managed this season, or nailed?

    1. thepuntmaster
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I think Glen Murray is being far too easily overlooked. Scoring pre-season, getting minutes, great fixtures. He's in my team for 6.0

      1. Maddi Son
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I'm seriously tempted out of nowhere. I've been on Trossard for a while but Murray is proven and consistent.

      2. Jay Arell
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        This is a really good point actually! Have pretty much overlooked him for now but will be seriously considering him going forward

  10. Jay Jay Okocha
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Found 0.5 under the couch cushions:

    A) Walker to Laporte
    B) Dunk to 5.0 defender
    C) Lundstrom to Diop for a rotation with Dunk
    D) save for a rainy day

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

      Dunk to KWP would seem to be the herd move rn

  11. Phil's Stamps
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Is Dendoncker reasonably nailed in the Wolves' 11? I've seen a few people on here considering him as their 'starting' bench player. Is that accurate?

    Thanks.

    1. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Yes probably. Hayden is the other 4.5 which is reasonably nailed

      1. Phil's Stamps
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks. So a bench of Dunk Dendoncker & Greenwood can be considered passable as it has 2 starters?

      2. Helia
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Oh I thought Hayden left. Cool

  12. Jolly Good
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    1) Wilson (in 4-3-3) or Siggy (in 4-4-2)
    2) Ederson + VvD or Lloris + Robbo ( have Trent)
    3) Fraser , Siggy or Moura

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      2) first pair

  13. Kristobal
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Aurier first choice right back for Spurs?

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      KWP

  14. ZakMitch
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    RMT

    Ryan
    Ake, Digne, VVD, Gibson
    Sterling, Salah, Barkley
    Kane, King, Vardy

    Too weak defence?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Id say it was weak yes.

  15. Chelseaaaa
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Who will score more points this season: Pepe or Lacazette?

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Not even Emery knows this .

    2. Pennywise
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Pepé as yet unproven but I'm thinking he will..

  16. jdp219
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Any thoughts on the best mid at or under 6.0? Would be 4th mid.

    Barkley, Pereyra, Doucoure, Grealish? Other?

    1. Chelseaaaa
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Barkley will most likely start the first few weeks at Attacking Mid so I would personally go for him, and you can always change him in a few weeks time

  17. Big Fudge
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Struggling to find room for Sterling in my side and wondering which one of these combinations looks to be the most optimal:

    Sterling + Robinson
    Or
    KDB + Siggy

    Sterling + Pérez + King

    1. Big Fudge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Gotta love fat fingers sending it too early! The last option looking into Bournemouth cover was:

      KDB + Fraser + Wilson

    2. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Get Sterliing, I fancy the Blades to frustrate the Cherries.
      Two is over the top I feel.

  18. hogree
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    A. Ceballos + Kane
    B. Fraser + Vardy

    1. Botman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      A

  19. FC Bama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Reading debate on N Pepe. What is highest FPL score for first year player?

    1. Chelseaaaa
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      It would have to be Salah in 2017/18 where he scored 303 (if you dont count Chelsea seasons)
      Otherwise, Kane

    2. Mayor of Flair
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Diego Costa?

      1. FC Bama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Good shout. Did not specify but was thinking about players unaccustomed to pace/power of Prem. Regardless, it seems most new players take some time to adjust given the number of high profile transfers over the past 10 years in particular.

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Salah broke the FPL points record in his first year so its obviously him. Unless you want to discount him because of his Chelsea stint.

    4. LFC466
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Sanchez?

  20. Mayor of Flair
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Most nailed 4.5 Burnley defender?

  21. Unbowed Unbent N'Golo
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Which 32.5 M combo?

    a) Maddison / Perez / Wilson / Kane
    b) Fraser / KDB / King / Vardy

    1. Botman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      A) Maybe Perez to Barkley?

    2. @fpl_phenom
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      A

  22. Botman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone tempted by Pepe. Think as a midfielder the extra points could help him over Auba and Laca. 2 week trial if it doesn't work out jump on Son?

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      No.

      1. Botman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Care to elaborate?

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      No chance with kdb at the same price

      1. @fpl_phenom
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        this , a million times this

    3. Unbowed Unbent N'Golo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Tempted for sure, but won't take the gamble over the likes of KDB in the end

      1. Botman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Yeh I'm on KDB atm but was thinking of a reshuffle
        A) KDB, 6m (Barkley atm), and Wilson.
        B) Pepe, Bilva, Wesley
        But B is a bit too punty

    4. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I want to see a game first, Mr Tinkerbell is going to have a field day this season.

  23. quickstop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Not opting too much for BOU/EVE in the start:

    Ryan
    TAA, Robbo, Zinc, Zouma
    Salah, Sterling, KDB, Perez
    Deulofeu, King

    Button, Lundstram, Dendo, Greenwood

    + 0,5 ITB for easy tinkering within pricepoints for Zinc, Zouma, Perez, KDB, King, Deulofeu.

    Ratings anyone?

    1. Chilli Heatwave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      7.5/10 not a fan of Zouma and front line looks a tad weak. Rest looks good though

  24. Costa Nostra
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Pepe nailed for that transfer price?

    1. Botman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      If he is that's a tasty front 3 Arsenal have got themselves.

  25. JJeyy
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Seems like Sane is staying, would he really put stuff like ‘good vibes’ and ready for community shield if he was leaving...

    Good gamers one punt, easily switch to KDB if it doesn’t work out

    1. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Yes he would. He did similar social media posts last year during the period when he was obviously out of favor with Pep.

    2. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Would love to punt on him, but no matter what Pep says, the vibes are that he just doesn't like him / or his playing style.

      He would be perfect at the start with Mendy out but I've talked myself out of it.

  26. LloristheHounds
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Ryan
    TAA, VVD, Robbo, Digne, zinchenko
    Sterling, KDB, Fraser, barkley
    Kane(C)

    Bench;fodder

    No salah but triple livo D
    Thoughts??

    1. Chilli Heatwave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Not a fan of five at the back, I’d try and downgrade defence to get king alongside Kane. Maybe then do Fraser to Perez to save money

    2. Costa Nostra
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      There’s literally zero chance id go without Liverpool attack

  27. Chilli Heatwave
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Heaton
    TAA-Walker-Coleman-Toby
    Salah-sterling-Perez-Barkley
    Kane-king

    Am I good to go? Any feedback, particularly on the defence, would be much appreciated. Cheers chaps

    1. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      If city sign cancelo then walker becomes a lot less nailed

      1. Chilli Heatwave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        If they do will probably change to VVD and change Toby to a 4.5

        1. Pep's Money Laundry
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          My team is very similar to yours except I have robbo instead of walker and dunk or Zouma instead toby

          I'm also thinking of going Wesley instead of King but not sure yet

  28. @fpl_phenom
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    having Sterling and KDB is strarting to look like a great idea....

    1. Manani
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      no Salah?

      1. Chilli Heatwave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Oh mane mane

      2. @fpl_phenom

        no him too !

        1. Manani
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          what's your forward line then?

          1. @fpl_phenom
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            If I did it would be

            King Deulofeu in a 442

  29. Manani
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    no Kane scares me a bit, but how is this team?

    Heaton 4.0
    4.0 TAA Laporte VVD Coleman
    Sterling Salah Fraser Perez Dendocker
    Greenwood Wilson Jota

    1. Chilli Heatwave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Looks good to go

    2. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Not bad. Can’t see why anyone would want to pay 15.5 for two Bournemouth attackers!

        might just go with only one, but don't see many attractive value midfielder and not a fan of barkley

        probably something to do with those particular 2 Bournemouth attackers having scored a bag lad of points last year and are playing 2 newly promoted teams straight away this season.... I could be wrong now...

      Coleman Fraser over Digne Zaha?!

        not touching Zaha unless he moves

        don't think Zaha will start, open to the Coleman>Digne upgrade, but can't see where I can squeeze .5m for better value

    Last question of the night

    A. Kane, McGinn and Stones
    B. Wilson, Fraser and Laporte

    Stick with the crowd or try the gung-ho option?
