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.

    So you’re saying there’s a chance?

    1. Amey

      Ederson owner*

    Sterling is that player for the remainder of the season that good elevate your rank. Not owned by many and greet fixtures. Captaining him will have its maximum effect

    1. thomashl
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      ...if he plays

    2. thomashl

      But yeah, I generally agree!

  6. Slim25
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    2 ft's, what option?

    1) Son & Rich > KDB & Pulisic
    2) Son & RIch > KDB & Foden

  7. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Well at least Salah (c) will be a differential now next GW!

      Villa will get thrashed !

    Already got in Mahrez but considering Salah DCL to
    Foden ( NEW) and Kane ( bou) in 34

    Love how Pep is so committed to high standards and improving his team. Look at him during the drinks break - still imparting advice to the players. Has one of the best teams in the world and still demands higher standards, improvement and commitment to quality.

    A lot of PL managers could learn from that. And if they have players who don't respond to it, those managers should question whether those players are right for the club.

      • 11 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      I saw Jose do it earlier today in the drinks break when 2-0 down.
      When the play resumed, he walked back to his seat and ripped up the notes.

    2. Party time
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Absolutely. He is a top manager

  11. Stoic
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    Imagine if Pep is right and Foden turns out better than Messi

    1. Tinkermania
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Dream on!

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Then we have a lot of greatness to look forward to.

      Surely he never, ever, said that.

      1. Hulk Smash
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        I believe he said Foden is the most gifted player he's ever worked with

          • 16 Years

          That's has to be a flippant comment that wasn't thought through. Crazy, otherwise.

          1. Lucy2019
            • 6 Years
            6 years, 24 days ago

            Well Messi wasn't really naturally gifted. Needed growth hormones as a child. Should be done for doping.

  12. FPL Daniel

    Anyone knows this Kenny McClean dude from Norwich? He has 10 SoT and still no goals. He is nailed on and shoots a lot.

    He is bound to score. I want to make a punt on him against Brighton.

    Is he any good?

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

      Didn't he sing American Pie?

    2. JIMMY TUGGINS
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      When you have to ask that, the answer is usually no.

    3. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      I've heard he's the next Duda

  13. Mr_Barbs
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    24 points on the bench, including Pope + Foden.

    He looks the real deal though.

  14. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 24 days ago

    0 FT but £3.2m ITB, would you take any hits?

    Hayden > Pulisic or Foden and play them in a 352 over Lascelles could repay the hit right?

    Martinez
    TAA Alonso Saiss
    Son Salah KDB Bruno
    Ings Greenwood Jimi

    Subs: Hayden Lascelles Williams

  15. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Why, ou why, did I start TAA over Foden 🙁

    1. Pedersen
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Why did I start TAA over ings

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Because you're playing with 3 defenders?

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 24 days ago

        Correct.

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

      Don’t kick yourself, I would never bench TAA

    4. JIMMY TUGGINS
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 24 days ago

      Can't believe I started TAA over Masina.

    Liverpool remind me of when I played when I was really drunk once. I was fine for 20 minutes. Awful for 70. Vomited twice.

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
