Jurgen Klopp has finally delivered on his promise to shuffle the Liverpool side, and it has big implications for Fantasy managers.

Sadio Mané (£12.4m) and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) are the two players to suffer from that policy in Gameweek 34+ with each of them relegated to the bench for the trip to Brighton.

Neco Williams (£4.0m) gets his first Premier League start but rather than replace Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.8m) on the right-hand side, he has been selected on the left in place of Robertson.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (£6.1m) is the man to come in for Mané, offered a place in the front-three, further forward than his usual central midfield berth.

Outside of those changes, Liverpool as largely as expected, Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.4m) in the line-up, as well as Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m) and Joe Gomez (£5.3m).

There is considerably less interest in the Brighton side chosen by Graham Potter, which looks tailor-made to try and cause Liverpool some problems.

Usually a fan of three conservative midfielders, the Seagulls’ boss has decided to support Neal Maupay (£5.7m) with an attacking trio of Alexis Mac Allister (£5.5m), Pascal Groß (£6.2m) and Leandro Trossard (£5.8m).

Meanwhile, it is worth noting that Tariq Lamptey (£4.0m) is starting to make himself immune from tinker-man Potter’s rotation policy, making his fourth successive start against Liverpool.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Ryan; Burn, Webster, Dunk, Lamptey; D Stephens, Pröpper; Mac Allister, Groß, Trossard; Maupay.

Liverpool XI: Alisson; N Williams, van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold; J Henderson, Keïta, Wijnaldum; Oxlade-Chamberlain, Firmino, Salah.

    Salah has amazing balance for somebody who falls over so easily

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Selective balance as good a talent as selective hearing,..

      That's really bad luck - who were your regular captains?

      1. JIMMY TUGGINS
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        I've capped a lot of different players including obvious options and more punty ones, I usually play it by fixture, joint most capped has been Salah and Sterling with only 7 each so I think next season I'm just gonna stick between a few options.

        1. Hits from the Bong
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Just stick with one, if you capped Salah each week, youd be on 440 cap points

          1. JIMMY TUGGINS
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 18 days ago

            I've never played like that but yeah, I wish I had this year.

    4. Pukki Party

      482 captain points here. (Vc 390)

      Sorry 😳 . It's interesting that I've only had 2 fewer captains score less than 7 points.

      1. JIMMY TUGGINS
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Yeah, so I've missed all the big hauls too, it's definitely been the downfall of my season, transfers haven't been too bad etc but captaincy, TC and WC29 were awful.

  12. Niho992

    Lucky Mane owners getting Nketiah from bench

  13. WVA
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Is this for fooking real, FPL is all luck

  14. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years

    Mane in with 0 🙂

    1. Hect.OR 98th
      • 16 Years

      Still better than -2, I'll take it.

  15. KGFC
    • 9 Years

    Lamprey having Salad! 😆

  16. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Salah big chance missed

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

    PASS IT SALAH

  18. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Lamptey is amazing!

  19. Nanoelektronicar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Lapmtey is a legend.

  20. JBG
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    What defender to get for up to 5.1? Have Kabasele, TAA, Doherty, Robinson and Lascelles. Lascelles is going out.

    1. Rains of Castamere
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Aurier?

    2. The Train Driver
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Aurier

    3. The Train Driver
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      However I would get Robinson out for another Shef def.

      1. ZakyJ
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Jack Robinson? Who didn't start this week?

        1. ZakyJ
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 18 days ago

          Sorry got that wrong, I agree with train driver you should be changing Robinson not Lascelles

  21. WVA
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Salah will never square for Mane ever

  22. Rains of Castamere
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    If Salah had the decision making of KDB he'd basically be Messi

  23. The Train Driver
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Salah blowing away his baps per usual...

  24. Big Ronnie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Salah so greedy!

  25. BremerHB
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Any good options in defence under 4.8 for the rest of the season?

    No wolves and already got Lascelles, Holgate. Will probably FH in 36.

    1. zotter
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Justin ?

      1. BremerHB
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Was my first thought too.

  26. Ode
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Salah is so bad but so good at the same time it’s weird

  27. JIMMY TUGGINS
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Should I start Mahrez or Foden? Pretty much a coin toss right?

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Mahrez

    2. Ode
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Depends what you will do with that extra money with foden

      1. JIMMY TUGGINS
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Oh, I own both, deciding which to start and which to bench.

      2. Ode
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        Sorry I can’t read

  28. JayLegend
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Salah 3 baps to zero incoming

    1. The Train Driver
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Classic

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      More attacking points coming

      1. Differentiator
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 18 days ago

        red card for punching?

  29. Vazza
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 18 days ago

    Any chances of KDB not playing at all against Brighton?

    1. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Highly unlikely

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Minutes likely.

    3. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      maybe on planet zorg

    4. zotter
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      Think he will start. He will sit out Bournemouth

    5. Miniboss
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      If he got injured in the end against Newcastle then yeah

    6. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 18 days ago

      There are injury concerns is the reason I ask
