Salah blanks as mediocre Liverpool concede again

Southampton 1-2 Liverpool

Goals: Danny Ings (£6.0m) | Sadio Mané (£11.5m), Roberto Firmino (£9.5m)

Assists: James Milner (£5.5m), Mané

Bonus Points: Mané x3, Firmino x2, Ings x1

Liverpool’s performance at Southampton on Saturday proved right those Fantasy Premier League managers who had concerns after the Super Cup final.

Having played 120 minutes in Istanbul midweek, the Reds probably did not deserve to take all three points from the Saints as they did not play to their usual high standards.

That led to Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) recording his first blank of the 2019/20 season at just the second hurdle.

The Egyptian was largely anonymous at the St. Mary’s Stadium, only finding himself presented with one decent chance on Saturday afternoon.

After making a trademark run cutting in from the right, Salah bore down on Angus Gunn‘s (£4.5m) goal, only for Southampton’s shot-stopper to deflect the effort away with his feet.

Salah was pulled off in the 78th minute at Southampton

Despite Klopp’s insistence that a 120-minute outing would not hamper Salah in Gameweek 2, Liverpool’s manager took the player off in the 78th minute and replaced him with Divock Origi (£5.6m).

Whether Fantasy managers should have any lasting concerns about Salah remains to be seen though.

It will not be every week that the Egyptian will be forced into extra-time midweek before a Saturday Premier League match.

Furthermore, with a home match against Arsenal next, a side who Liverpool scored five against at Anfield last season, it probably does not serve well to make any kneejerk reactions to Salah’s Gameweek 2 blank.

However, a 14-point haul for Sadio Mané (£11.5m) might just give some Fantasy managers itchy feet.

The former Southampton man returned to the starting line-up after his late return from African Cup of Nations action over the summer and got himself a goal and assist against his former employers.

The Senegalese international played only 103 minutes in the Super Cup final, which might have helped his cause, although in truth he wasn’t any more involved in the Liverpool action than Salah.

Yes, it was his excellent curled effort from range that gave Liverpool the lead, but he, like Salah, was also not at his best in a game largely dominated by Southampton.

Firmino scored what proved to be the winner for Liverpool but they were far from their best at Southampton

The same goes for Roberto Firmino (£9.5m), who outscored Salah in this game but did not necessarily offer much more than him across the course of the game.

We pointed out in Gameweek 1 that the Brazilian had registered more shots than Salah against Norwich, but it was the Egyptian who had more efforts on goal in this game.

Southampton asked plenty of questions of the European champions in the opening 45 minutes, Nathan Redmond (£6.5m) exploiting space on Trent Alexander-Arnold’s (£7.0m) side of the pitch.

The former Norwich midfielder saw a fierce effort go wide early on before Che Adams (£6.0m) dragged just beyond the far post from a corner.

Goalkeeper Adrian (£4.5m), who came through an ankle injury scare, was very much at the heart of Southampton’s attacking play for much of the game.

Early on, his clearance was charged down by James Ward-Prowse (£6.0m), setting the tone for the afternoon.

For long periods, the former West Ham man kept his side in the game, his most impressive save a point-blank stop from a Maya Yoshida (£4.5m) header after a Southampton corner.

Adrian was at the heart of the narrative for Liverpool’s win over Southampton

Adrian also made some good saves in the second half too, but ultimately it was exclusively his fault when Danny Ings (£6.0m) scored in the 83rd minute.

In almost a carbon copy of what happened with Ward-Prowse in the first half, his attempted clearance was charged down by the forward, who did not have to add a second touch to see the ball roll into an empty net.

“Yes (I have spoken to Adrian): ‘You finally arrived, welcome!’ Ali did the same. Obviously, it’s a goalie thing at Liverpool, no problem with that as long as we win the games. All good.” – Jurgen Klopp

The fact that Adrian allowed himself to get closed down on two occasions will not inspire confidence in owners of Liverpool defensive assets, especially those with a double-up in this department. That said, Klopp did insist that his team played him too many short passes today, in light of his recent injury. Maybe a return to full fitness for Gameweek 3 might help Adrian somewhat.

“Adrian had a swollen ankle and we played too many balls back to him in that period. I was happy with everything he did today, all the saves, all that stuff. The other players have to then feel more the responsibility for the build-up and cannot give all the balls back to him and hope the pain killers still help or whatever. I don’t think the goal was because of that, but a few other balls were. He is completely good with his feet. If you would have seen his ankle on Thursday after we left the plan then you would say even the pass before the [Southampton] goal was better than you would have expected! It is all fine.” – Jurgen Klopp

Owners of key Liverpool defensive assets were left disappointed on Saturday afternoon

Southampton burst into a late fight-back and probably should have levelled things up, Ings screwing wide from short-range shortly after busting Liverpool’s clean sheet.

Either way, after what Norwich achieved at Anfield in Gameweek 1, Southampton’s domination of this game will add further worry to those with Liverpool defenders.

Unfortunately for those invested in Andrew Robertson (£7.0m), Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m), or a combination, Liverpool did not get enough going to soften the blow of losing the clean sheet with some attacking returns.

Those concerned about the double-up especially will perhaps not be too excited about Arsenal coming to Anfield in Gameweek 3.

        He's been in from last week. Best 6m option I saw with those fixtures.
        Has he had a shot yet?

            Expected him to be a lot stronger for his size. Not a good sign for the Premier League.

        I picked the wrong promoted striker to back. Pukki was the one.

            Crikey, 4.5! Another for the watchlist.

        2. antis0cial
          • 7 Years

          Young lad at Norwich only 4.5 and playing well. Not sure guaranteed to start but seemed a reasonable punt.

      3. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Fine. Would not bench King. All it takes is for Callum Wilson to get tripped in the box and King gets another PK to convert. Montoya out.

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years

          VAR will cancel it 😉

        2. antis0cial
          • 7 Years

          Thanks yeah it’s probably Montoya that drops out for king rather than Cantwell.

          Same forwards as I have. 🙂

          Neither KDB, nor Maddison are worth the money they cost. Both brilliant assisters, but goals are rare.

        2. Ha.

          Really stretching the bench

        3. MTPockets
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Ok but looks somewhat based on teams that have already played this week.

          • cigan
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Not sure I'd get Son straight away but looks good otherwise

            1. Zimo
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Why?

              1. cigan
                • 5 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Would prefer to wait as Lamela & Moura both seem to be playing well and scoring

          • Strchld
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Similar than mine. I have now Barnes (Cathing a price rises) but maybe end to Jota.

        4. cigan
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          If Man Utd look solid this week ... are these 2 moves a no-brainer (assuming Digne is ok or out for 1 week only)?

          Trent > WB/Maguire
          Adams > Pukki

          Alternatively, I could just do Wilson > Pukki, give Adams another week (he does play Brighton and SOU looked dangerous yesterday) and wait for more info

          This is the team atm (terrible score this week, Perez&Martial to the rescue?):

          Ryan Pope
          Trent Virgil Digne Zinch Cathcart
          Salah Sterling Martial Perez Dendoncker
          Wilson Adams Greenwood

          Many issues here, though neither are pressing I think
          - attack needs fixing before next round
          - Cathcart has to go, probably for Kelly
          - not sold on Perez (and arguably Martial even though he scored) - will have more info tomorrow
          - I really want De Bruyne and Mane, Salah will probably have to make way

          1. circusmonkey
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            The 7m Liverpool defender to a 5.5 Manchester United defender is on my mind. To help me get Kdb and fix my forward line. So similar thinking.

            1. cigan
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              What's your FWD line?

              1. circusmonkey
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Appalling, King, Locadia, Greenwood. Probably going with just King next week, hope I don't end up with 10 but don't think I will. Kdb priority.

          2. MTPockets
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Not no-brainer but seem popular moves this week

              1. cigan
                • 5 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Tempted by Jota too but Pukki's form is so hard to ignore

            • Bird Raymond
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Downgrading a Liverpool defender for a United one to free up funds is tempting.

              Triple Everton defence insaaaanity

            5. KGFC
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Would go max double Eve defense.. triple is overkill. And if WCing, I'd have one of Kane/Son.

          4. The Head-Ake
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Pope - (Button)
            Robertson - TAA - Laporte - Digne - (Kelly)
            Salah - Sterling - Perez - Siggy - (Dendonck)
            King - Wood - (Greenwood)

            2 FT and 0.0 ITB. What changes would you recommend? I'm thinking of getting KDB in for Siggy? But Wood has disappointed me too.

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

              TAA and Wood out

              1. The Head-Ake
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Has TAA really disappointed or does he look like he will make up for it soon?

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

                  I’m personally just not keen on the double up. And that was before Alisson got injured.

                2. cigan
                  • 5 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  He is a bit out of form but I'm sure he'll get attacking returns. It's not him individually though - the fact that the whole Liverpool backline looks dodgy is the bigger issue

            2. circusmonkey
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              I am thinking Kdb for Siggy also

              1. The Head-Ake
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                I can do TAA + Siggy to KDB and AWB. Should I?

                1. cigan
                  • 5 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  looks very good but wait for the Man U game

                  1. The Head-Ake
                    • 7 Years
                    4 years, 7 months ago

                    Yeah, will be patient on that.

            3. AuFeld
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              FWIW, Siggy leads EVE for xG and EVE have great fixtures. I would be patient.

              RE Wood - tough luck. Great preseason but hasn't been able to produce.

              1. The Head-Ake
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                What would you recommend I do?

            Can anyone see Angelino playing now? Seems the ideal player for city.

              Laporte to LB if Zinchenko and Mendy are not fit.

            Would you rather have Sterling, Kane or Auba the next 5+ weeks (i.e. no short-time punt)?

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

              Kane because I’d likely captain him a few times

            2. diesel001
              • 7 Years

              Sterling

              Sterling - best form, great fixtures

            4. MTPockets

                sterling

                Sterling with his Sterling form!

                Sterling. He'll be the highest points scorer in the game.

                • 13 Years

                Sterling by a landslide.

              Vertonghen hasn't been an inspired pick...

                  Why? Is there anything to indicate he will start?

                • 12 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                I thought he was impressive last season.

                But at 32 years old, it is about time he was phased out. I was concerned about the age of Spurs' defence in pre-season, and I still expect a decline in their CS potential this year as a result. The late departure of Trippier hasn't helped, KWPs has the anticipation of a tree.

                You should definitely ditch.

              Che Adams + Wilson > Jota + Pukki

              Thoughts?

                Ok though not convinced on Jota. I’ve just got rid of Adams.

                Annoying I talked myself into him as early gamble. Looks good and can see 10+ goals but needs a few more games and better fixtures and Pukki looks the business

                1. benpurser
                  • 5 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  I really like Che Adams aswell. Really annoying. Might just do Wilson > Pukki and give Adams one more chance

                  1. cigan
                    • 5 Years
                    4 years, 7 months ago

                    Same. Although I probably like him mostly because he has a cool name

                    • 6 Years

                    Wouldn't be ditching Adams now. I'd be getting him in. Redmond looks dangerous too. Southampton been a bit unlucky so far this season.

                      This. Southampton underlying numbers are ok.
                      I don’t agree with Robbie Savage who thinks they’ll go down

              Give me the 3 best 4.5 defenders and I'll love you forever.

                Lol. Just asked the same thing.

                Are you planning a back lined of 4.5m defenders

                1. Big boy Bowen
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  Only briefly considering it atm, will likely not but want to see how it looks with the best budget ones

                Peiters, Dunk, and ??? Soyuncu or Montoya

                Slim pickings. Montoya & Soyuncu & someone who won't score a lot

                  • 7 Years

                Soyuncu, Montoya, Elmohamady.

                Elmohamady is really interesting actually. He got 3bps as a defender after the team lost the game, he conceded twice and had no attacking returns.

                That's ridiculous. If Wesley can put just one of his crosses in, he's guaranteed full bonus and more.

              Anyone got a successful set of rotating 4.5m defenders?

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

                Only Everton have kept a clean sheet so far this GW and they don't have any. I'm tempted to say it's not a great strategy.

                1. SADIO SANÉ
                  • 8 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  You do realise City and Liverpool defenders also didn't get a CS?

              2. MTPockets
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  Have got Ward in to rotate with Montoya. Don't know about successful yet

                • SADIO SANÉ
                  • 8 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  Montoya with either Ward or Soyuncu seems decent enough

                • AuFeld
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  I haven't looked into rotation but, BHA and BUR defenders (Montoya, Pieters, and Dunk) look to be the best options right now for cheap defenders. Soyuncu is interesting as well.

                  Let the premium defender fire sale begin...

                    It's not as dire as that. He's been decently involved although his shots are down.

                  Yes. I have said this from the beginning of the Season. Guilbert was a real wind-up from some peeps on here. 😐

                  He is not injured just smith been opting for Konsa and Targett on the bench. Elmo looked dire so expect guilbert to be in soon

                  One has to go to fund other moves. Feel like I'm going to just have to pick one and hope for the best. Not much between them.

                  The guy that scored for Norwich against Liverpool and has four goals in two games? Nah, he's sh*te.

                  Top player in the championship LY. 4 goals in 2. 0.75 XG. 5 shots a a game so far. Norwich playing open

                    0.75 xG per 90mins. One may claim he is over performing.

                      Yes I know. Still that’s a good number. I can bench him or another in my team set up. 5 shots a game and 2 key passes a game though. Plus watching him - he’s like Shearer, shoots when he can inside the box - super confident / no fear

                  Well he's already won the Golden Boot so he'll probably put out the deckchair now.

                    Yeah it’s not like he might like one more decent transfer and payday before he hits 30. Probs just sit on the deckchair and enjoy the drizzle lol

                I really wish I’d called my team ‘FFS Kneejerk’

                  You can still change it

                Pope
                Zinchenko TAA Duffy Digne
                Trossard Sterling Salah Perez
                Aubameyang Pukki

                Heston Doncker Greenwood Gibson

                Only one FT as got Pukki in last week, any advice on where to make it?

                  Auba to Kane could work if you don't want to do a -4, looks good otherwise

                  Pukki was a fine kneejerk Sir! Bet that hattrick felt good.

                  I would save for now and wait for news on Digne.

                Robertson, Fraser, Wilson --> De Bruyne, Rashford, Kelly (-4)?

                For those looking to wildcard you can create this starting XI

                Ryan
                Diane - Zouma - AWB - Zinchenko
                Son - Mane - Sterling - Martial - KDB
                Pukki

                *this depends on when you signed Pukki/Martial as you may need to downgrade a player by 0.5m if you don't already own them.

                How does this move sound?

                VVD/Robertson, Bilva, C.Wilson > WB, KdB, Pukki -4?

                  I would just do Wilson to Pukki.
