Jurgen Klopp has engaged in some more late-season rotation, causing issues for Fantasy managers once again.

After Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) was benched at Brighton so Neco Williams (£4.0m) could get a first Premier League start, it is Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.8m) who has made way for him at Anfield.

The young full-back is capable of playing on both sides of the defence, operating at left-back at the Amex Stadium but handed a start on the right-hand side today.

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) owners will be happy to see him survive the latest shuffling of the Liverpool pack as some had feared he might get the same treatment as Sadio Mané (£12.3m) did midweek.

But the two premium midfielders are both in the team today, stationed in their usual roles either side of Roberto Firmino (£9.4m).

With Jordan Henderson (£5.3m) out for the remainder of the Premier League season, Klopp has taken the opportunity to offer a start in midfield to Curtis Jones (£4.5m).

The youngster is joined there by the more experienced Georginio Wijnaldum (£5.4m) and Fabinho (£5.4m).

Burnley line-up in their traditional 4-4-2 shape, with Erik Pieters (£4.2m) in midfield and Jay Rodriguez (£5.7m) joined up-front by Chris Wood (£6.1m).

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Robertson, van Dijk, Gomez, N Williams; C Jones, Wijnaldum, Fabinho; Mané, Firmino, Salah.

Burnley XI: Pope; C Taylor, Tarkowski, K Long, Bardsley; McNeil, Westwood, Brownhill, Pieters; Wood, Rodriguez.

    What have I just witnessed

    How is Salah walking off with 2 points - but let off for non-owners

    This is a mad game, absolutely mad sometimes

    1. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Owners got way more than they should last game. Swings and roundabouts.

      1. Tempestic
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 15 days ago

        He should have scored another last week

        1. Brosstan
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 15 days ago

          Statistically he should have had about 3 points

    2. Tempestic
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      I’m fuming mate. Same type of mad as I was with foden last week. Can’t catch a break

      1. Isco Disco
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 15 days ago

        Same mate!
        Can’t believe my differential Captains have backfired 2 weeks in a row

  4. Traction Engine Foot
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Pope concedes, gets booked and outscores salah.

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      I missed the booking. What happened? Time wasting?

      1. FPL Pillars
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 days ago

        Wipped out his Johnson

      2. Traction Engine Foot
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 15 days ago

        Yeah

    2. Pep bites Kun
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      I love this game! Wohoo! o/

  5. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Salah(c) Mane Trent = utter fail lol

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      That’s rough

    2. Tempestic
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      I feel u

      1. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 15 days ago

        Don't feel him. That's sexual harassment

    3. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      How are you feeling Salah owner

  6. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Klopp didnt shake hands with Salah at final whistle. Steaming after that performance.

  7. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    to be fair, it was fair enough that Klopp rested Salah today after resting Mane midweek

    1. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Lol

    2. @persecuted_by_mods
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Unfairly rested Mane again though, was asking for trouble

  8. Tempestic
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Ffs 90 minute of a differential Mo Salah captaincy vs Burnley and he’s managed to do that, unbelievable. I need to stop trying to be clever and wack it fernandes every week for 30 points

  9. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Salah TAA (BUR) 3 massive points!

  10. Kodap
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Hmm, what to do with Salah next GW?

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Sell defo for Willian (C)

      1. Kodap
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 days ago

        Yeah i have just seen that Willian is playing Norwich next GW...

        What would you do with this lot?

        DDG

        Trent - Saiss - Aurier

        Salah - Pulisic - KDB - Fernandes

        Ings - Vardy - Rashford

        Subs: Henderson, Holgate, Fernandez & Hayden.

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 15 days ago

          Salah > Willian and if 2FT probably also Vardy > Jesus

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Captain

      1. KGFC

  11. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Salah & Nketiah to Mahrez & Ings (-4) surely?

  12. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    4 from 3 any good?

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      I have 3 from two

    2. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Zero from 3 after hit.

  13. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 17 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Lost 0.2m on Mané but he’s going now. Arsenal next or not.

    1. Moose™
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Mane to Sterling?

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 17 Years
        6 years, 15 days ago

        Chelsea mid, I think

        1. Moose™
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 15 days ago

          Already had Willian.. Time to get Pulisic in then?

  14. Cak Juris
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Chance for Pope to get bonus point?

    1. JJO
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      No

  15. EL_FENOMENO
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    SaLaH iS wOrLd ClAsS

    1. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      That’s an understatement!!

  16. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Selling Mane and Salah is essential.

  17. Party time
    6 years, 15 days ago

    The Pope is a Legend

  18. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Any chance for Salah to nick a bonus point or two?

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Salah doesn't do bonus points

  19. fusen
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Just need Bruno to blank also now!

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Yes, icing on the cake.
      Back to 3 points like when I capt him 🙂

  20. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Seriously considering doing Salah > Sterling now. Not sure there will be much more from him now?

  21. Hulk Smash
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    On another day Salah would have nabbed a hattrick. Disappointing as a new owner but knee jerking him out would be a mistake. He looks hungry and he's shooting in the box.

  22. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Who starts in Salahs place vs Arsenal?

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      Minamino

  23. King Kohli
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    4 pts from my 3 Liverpool players home to Burnley. Unreal.

  24. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    No baps for Pope 🙁

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      YC cost him

    2. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 days ago

      The real Pope has to steer clear of baps too.

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 17 Years
        6 years, 15 days ago

        😀

  25. Botman and Robben
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Fine, last GW Salah pts will have to do.

  26. KGFC
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    BIG red arrow incoming with Bruno cappers to play... Season put to the sword... Ah it's only a game 😉

  27. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Liverpool now need to win their remaining games to break the points record.

    Only had themselves to blame today, selfish and poor finishing. Burnley very resilient.

  28. Gentle_Turks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Could have done without that Pope yellow card for time wasting...

  29. Coys96
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Oh shut up Klopp. Arrogant

  30. tucaoneo
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 15 days ago

    Now Chelsea goal not from those two please.
