Jurgen Klopp has named a routine Liverpool side to face West Ham in the final match of Gameweek 27.

Mohamed Salah (£12.8m) comes into the Monday night encounter as the most-captained player and starts in his traditional berth on the right flank of the Reds’ front-three.

He is joined in the strike force by Roberto Firmino (£9.7m) and Sadio Mané (£12.3m), who returns to the team for a first league start since the first match of Double Gameweek 24.

The Senegalese international may enjoy his evening against West Ham as David Moyes has taken the bold move of starting young defender Jeremy Ngakia (£4.0m) at right-back instead of the more experienced Pablo Zabaleta (£4.2m).

His performance will be of particular interest to Fantasy managers as the task of marking Mané is a big one. A poor night could mean big things for the £12.3m man, but if Ngakia impresses enough to hold onto his place, he could become an interesting asset considering his £4.0m price.

Another interesting decision sees Sebastien Haller (£6.8m) left on the bench alongside Manuel Lanzini (£6.2m), Pablo Fornals (£6.0m) and Jarrod Bowen (£6.5m) to enable a front-three of attacking midfielders.

Moyes has opted to play  Michail Antonio (£6.9m) through the middle of the strike-force, flanked by Felipe Anderson (£6.6m) and Robert Snodgrass (£5.2m).

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Robertson, van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold; Keita, Wijnaldum, Fabinho; Mané, Firmino, Salah.

West Ham United XI: Fabianski; Cresswell, Ogbonna, Diop; Ngakia; Rice, Noble, Soucek; Antonio, Anderson, Snodgrass.

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Looks like he is

          • 13 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

    3. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Wijnaldum, mane and robbo all really close though

  3. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    No bonus for Robbo? Ugh

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      deservedly imo

  4. DandyDon
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    With my two transfers being Mane and Cahill In I feel I deserve better than a predicted 5k boost. Oh well did take a -4 hit.

  5. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Trent cappers win again. Salah captain fail...

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Not that many

    2. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Hardly a fail on 7pts..
      Salah always gonna lose out on BAPs for missed chances.

    3. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Trent cappers fail. Jota captain win

  6. Amey
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    That 10 points return looks bad after watching the game from Taa © !!
    He's so attacking. Think will keep it on him against Watford too

    1. fish&chips
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      I bottled it and put it on salah. Might join you next time!!

  7. UpAndAway
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    26 points from my 3 Liverpool players, but 21 from 8 others. Story of my GW...

  8. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Everyone laughed at me pre season when I said Trent should be priced at least 8.0... The most essential player in FPL history

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Who laughed? Coz I certainly didn't.

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Plenty of people, dont remember names

    2. Epic Fail

      Link to laughter?

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years

        Yeah link please

        1. Epic Fail

        This site doesnt save post history that far back and has no post search feature...

        1. Epic Fail

          Google.

          • 14 Years

          Doesn’t count. This guy only has 3 top 10k finishes..

    3. Rolls-Royce
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      lol @ 8.0 SHould be atleast 11.0 😉

    4. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      a TAA in fine form is worth 8mil, but with their lack of CS early in the season 7mil was hard to justify

    5. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      We laugh at lots of things you say, be more specific

  9. Rolls-Royce
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    GW from hell. DCL-> Jimenez for hit and no United players/Auba. 🙁

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      What's your rank?

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Was 88K then went to 120K yesterday. 🙁

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Still time. That's great rank at this point of time. Chin up mate

          1. Rolls-Royce
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            Cheers mate. Looks like I'm might atleast stay inside top 100K.

    2. Rhodes your boat
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Could be worse I did dcl to jimi as part of a hit last week!

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Regret selling DCl over Vardy. Not selling Vardy earlier proving to be a big mistake.

        1. fish&chips
          • 15 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Vardy will repay your faith, starting from next week

  10. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Meh, brought in Van Dijk this week over mane (got mahrez so not much in it).

    Can’t get excited about Liverpool games though. Up to 75 for the week but dropped 4K places today =[

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      75 and dropped 4k? No way

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        he is on a -24

  11. Plant Based FPLer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Sooo if TAA is about level on points with Mane and Salah at the end of the season, is his price 11.5 - 12.5 next year?

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Not happening as he's a defender

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        7.5 m.

        Vidic was 8 after 2 two hundreds pts seasons

        1. Amey
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Bargain !

    2. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Not how it works.

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      He'll be 8m next year.

  12. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Looks like final.

    Bonus Points

    3 - Alexander-Arnold (42)
    2 - Wijnaldum (34)
    1 - Mané (33)

    Unlucky Mane owners

    1. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Poor Robbo owners

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        They outscored VVD owners twice in a row. They should be happy

        1. TheDragon
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          But Robbo was always going to outscore VVD over this latter part of the season

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Damn. Could really have used those points to get more over Salah owners. Oh well.

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        At least you have him

      2. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Same. He won't be as much of a differential from this coming GW.

    3. Rolls-Royce
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Damn, needed that Mane cappo bonus...

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Brave captain

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          not really, Manes low captainship is purely due to Salahs massive ownership. No sane person captained Salah over Mane if they have both

    4. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      What I said earlier then

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        You were right Pat. Admitting

  13. g40steve
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    C for 28, Trent or Salah?

    1. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Everyone will go Salah despite the fact we should all go TAA

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Yes.

    3. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Taa 😛

    4. Rolls-Royce
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Mane(c) hattrick.

    5. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      TAA for me.

    6. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Na, I think Watford will be hard work

      Punting only vardy!

      1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané

      1. Champions League Varane

        And Party to Auba in GW 29

        1. Under my Cucurella
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Would you reccomend ditching Henderson as well to have a GK and a full 11 - if so, who for?

  15. FPL Daniel
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Top 25K. Juhuuu. With little luck top 10K smiling at me again...

    Your rank and aim lads ?

    1. Rash
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      77k not giving up on top 10k just yet (around 52 points)

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        It can happen. Some great captains and you are there

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Aim is 10k, currently 80k. Been up and down from 40k to 85k like a yoyo for so long now. 10k is not looking likely, top 50k is probably more realistic

    3. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Up to 12k. Would love to breach the 5k mark. No idea what the points difference is at present but I'm only 5 off the 10k mark now

      1. Scholes Out For Summer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        im at 3k with 1657 - you can do it!

    4. -Klaus-
      • 6 Years

      5k before tonight. Now probably just inside 10k.

    6. Ross Geller
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      574 after update. Going from around 400 to 900 and so on for about two months already. Hope i can end in top 100. That would be awesome 🙂

    1. Epic Fail

      Obviously good if you've gone up.

  19. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years

    Firmino owners what's your plan?I am thinking to keep him one more game and sell him for Auba in gw29.

    1. Rotation City
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      I like it. Do you need to free up much cash to make it happen?

    2. Saka Punch
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Reshuffling to Mane

  20. The Orienteer - find me in …
    • 14 Years

    Thinking the same.

  21. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Jota or DCL?

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Jota is exciting

      1. Rotation City
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Yea it might depend on your rank and intentions. Jota is a punt but we know what he can do, could be good if you're low in ranking and looking to make a move.

  22. Rotation City
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Evening all.
    So I've got the exact cash ITB to do Grealish > Bruno.

    What are Grealish owners thinking? I like him, but blank next week then tough fixtures going forward, could be the ideal time to move on.

  23. Saka Punch
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Would you go for Jimi or Jota for the next few, and why?
