Fantasy managers will get another look at Phil Foden‘s (£5.2m) credentials as he prepares to start against Liverpool in Gameweek 32+.

Interest in the Manchester City midfielder has abounded since the Premier League’s restart and that is sure to increase after making his second start since Gameweek 30+.

The last time he featured from the beginning, Foden backed himself a brace so the fact that Manchester City’s team-sheet appears to have deployed him on the flanks of the front-three is very exciting indeed.

He is joined there by Raheem Sterling (£11.7m) and Gabriel Jesus (£9.6m), while Riyad Mahrez (£8.5m) must make do with a place on the bench.

Unsurprisingly, this season’s Fantasy darling Kevin De Bruyne (£10.7m) starts once again, while Eric Garcia (£4.5m) returns to the back-four.

Predictably, there are fewer shocks in the Liverpool line-up than Pep Guardiola’s.

Mohamed Salah (£12.6m) and Sadio Mané (£12.5m) flank Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) in attack while Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.8m) and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) offer their usual threat from the full-back positions.

Manchester City XI: Ederson; Mendy, Laporte, Garcia, Walker; Rodrigo, Gundogan, De Bruyne; Sterling, Jesus, Foden.

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

    Foden price next season?

    7.0?

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Depends what he does in the rest of the season

    2. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Probably about right.

  2. Chalobah's Witness
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Mahrez for Son FT or better get Auba with a -4?

    Loving this De Bruyne haul!

    1. Moderately content penguin
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      You on him C too I take it.

      My team is a pile of rubbish (Vardy Tammy etc) but still possible green

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        No Kane captain

  4. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Any Chelsea fans here? Who starts against Watford? Giroud or Tammy?

    1. Coupes
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      if i had to guess id say Giroud

  5. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years

    To be honest, the Sterling penalty was awfully soft. VAR would not have given that for Sterling's balls being felt up. Proper dive.

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Don't know what game you're watching, that was a super clear pen to me. Gomez had his hands all over him for a long time.

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        Gomez had his hamds on Sterlings croch. Maybe you are blind.

    When would people play free hit now? What are your thoughts?

    1. Revival

      Last day of the season with FPL Rockstar delivering us some early team news

      1. Squib
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        That's what I was thinking cheers pal

  7. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Which combo for you?
    A. Foden + Ings
    B. Pulisic + DCL
    C. Mahrez + Greenwood

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      C

    2. Amey
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      C

    3. antis0cial
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      C

    4. Moderately content penguin
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      A

      Just forget B imo. C could work if you have a bench

  8. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Why are people looking to sell Auba? I don’t get it

    1. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Arsenal dont have the fixtures or the creative players to help Auba score consistently

      Plethora of other options, Auba too expensive and easy to downgrade to upgrade other playesr

      1. Moderately content penguin
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        They never have but he still does

    2. Zen_Master
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Look up his goal-scoring record against top 6 teams of which Arsenal plays against in the next four fixtures.

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        Ok but imagine he hauls, they will kick themselves

  9. GuillermoDickero

    Said when I played my wildcard last week that Pep and Ole have a goof reason to play Greenwood and Foden over the rest of the season - particularly to give them game time for next year.

    So I'm glad I brought them in - only problem I benched them both this week.

    I think that's the issue with these players, they're ceilings are high but their minutes can be unpredictable so you're always reluctant to start them.

    Gomez heading to the bar.
    Ox on.

  11. Slim25

    Current Team
    Pope (Martin)
    TAA Aurier Doherty (Ritchie, Robinson)
    Bruno Mane Martial Son Rich
    DCL Jiminez (Nketiah)

    Have 2 ft's, do I
    A; Rich & Son > KDB & Pulisic/Foden
    B; -4 hit, Rich, Doherty & Ritchie > KDB, Saiss, and Holgate (Keep Son for the gwk against Bournemouth)

  12. Capitano
    • 10 Years

    1. Nightcrawler
      • 7 Years

    Or best 1 week punt Sarr replacement?

    A) Foden
    B) Saint Max
    C) Trossard

  14. Total Slotball

    klopp will be using a breathalyzer for who to keep on/take off

    1. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Robertson must have snuck past him

  15. x.jim.x
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    De Gea + Aurier + Son => Pope + AWB + Mahrez for -4?

    1. Lukakuna
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Do it Crimson!

      1. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        Haha thanks! Good luck evolving into Dia-Beedrill!

    Was set on Jesus on my WC and not sure now.
    Though there are barely any really tempting FWDs - already have Jimmy and Nketiah and going to play 5 MIDs in general.
    Rash is out of my interest as going Maguire+Martial+Bruno

    Who should I look for?
    More than 10.0 M to spend 😀

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years

      Ings?

  17. mixology

    Great result for FPL so far. City will keep pushing on. Pool will make sure they don’t get embarrassed again for rest of season

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Fair comment to be honest

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Poor Villa 🙂

      1. Silecro
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        True, Shaq, Minamino and Origi gonna destroy them

    3. Easy Cheesy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Yep. Can’t see mass rotation for liverpool vs villa if they lose this game.

    Trent getting angry

    1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      FIFA rivalries rekindled

  19. DAZZ
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Barnes > Foden for free?

    Desperate to lose Harvey

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Looks a no-brainer.

    2. Pep Roulette
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Anyone would do it

      1. Pocky
        • 17 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        That'll be my transfer.

      2. DAZZ
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        But is Foden likely to get enough minutes?

  20. teddypicker
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Careful Trent, he's got sharp fingernails...

  21. Athletic Nasherbo
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Eric Garcia I reckon could be a steal. Not a high upside but a steady stream of points I imagine

  22. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Absolute crap from Jesus once again

  23. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Trent plays in Jesus

  24. mr. inconspicuous
    • 17 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Seriously thinking about using my free hit this gameweek with so many easy games for the big teams - 3 City, Liverpool and Utd players could be huge, what are people thinking?

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Not a bad idea

    2. AC Yew
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      This was my plan but was forced to play it last week due to injuries

    3. Third Eye Vision
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Tempting.

    4. Moderately content penguin
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Such a tight turnaround but could be gold

  25. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    I’m thankful for Jesus. Imagine Kun was playing.

  26. Zilla
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Liverpool defence is having a huge stinker

  27. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 17 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Trent copying my Fifa skills with his throw ins 😆

  28. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    TAA my only Liverpool player for the weekend. Based on this performance I might just be ok.

  29. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Jesus moaning sterling didn't pass.....yeah

  30. Don Kloppeone
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Hmmm decisions decisions

    A) Son > Mahrez (roll 1FT)
    B) Son, DCL > Mahrez, Greenwood (2FT)
    C) Son, Guendo > Mahrez, Foden (2FT)
    D) Son, DCL, Guendo > Mahrez, Pulisic, Greenwood (-4)

    Leaning towards D but maybe DCL vs that Spurs defence... hmmm

    0itb 2FT
    Pope, Martin
    TAA, Doherty, Lascelles, Kiko, Simpson
    Salah, KDB, Son*, Bruno, Guendo*
    Rash, Jimi, DCL*

    What do you think?!
