Liverpool’s key assets are all set to face a much-rotated Arsenal side at the Emirates Stadium.

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) and Sadio Mané (£12.2m) both retain their places from the draw with Burnley, each one boasting a vested interest in the Golden Boot race.

Their exploits on Wednesday evening could be pivotal to the outcome of Gameweek 36+ considering that their backing inside the top 10,000 FPL managers took a dip for the midweek round of action.

We know that many Free Hit managers overlooked the pair in favour of Chelsea and Manchester City counterparts, although those two clubs have largely struggled to completely fulfil their promise against Norwich and Bournemouth respectively.

Meanwhile, Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.7m) and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) start a match together for the first time since Gameweek 33+ with Neco Williams (£4.0m) back on the Liverpool bench.

Those invested in the Liverpool full-backs, or either of the centre-halves, will be pleased to see who is sitting on the Arsenal one.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.9m) has lost his place this evening, named among the substitutes for the first time since the Premier League restarted.

In the striker’s place, Mikel Arteta has named Reiss Nelson (£ and Nicolas Pépé (£8.9m) either side of Alexandre Lacazette (£9.2m) in the front-three.

Arsenal XI: Martínez; Tierney, Holding, D Luiz, Cédric; Xhaka, Torreira, Saka; Nelson, Lacazette, Pépé.

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

    So bought the vegan salad last week for -4 to get 4 points as cap and now 2... Thanks fake Fellaini.

    Which pair wins this week?

    A) AWB + Digne + DCL + Ings
    B) Henderson + Lundstram + Martial

    1. KGFC
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      4 vs 3... Definitely A

  4. Right In The Stanchion

    Oh no not kolasinac

  5. Ady87
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    This shirt off season could be a blessing for teams like United. Liverpool won it so early they’re going to stumble to the finish and have what, a week or so off?

    1. Ady87
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Short*

  6. Champions League Varane
    • 7 Years

    Should I still get Salah for next week??

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years

      Based on that performance?

    Have had 6 red arrow in a row.
    Was 1st in my big cash ML, now 6th and out of the prizes.
    This week I thought could be great, until Foden (C) fail.

    What a terrible weeks after restart, everything going wrong whatever I do and somehow still inside 5k. Inside 5k and just 6th in ML doesnt feel right.

      It's not real football is it. Without the fans there's little pressure to affect the players

      1. Strchld
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Im just happy this season is over in 10 days.

  8. sandman58

    Best Charlie Taylor replacement??
    4.3 spend

    1. Old Bull
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Why replace? Seasons almost over. Play 3 at the back.o

      1. sandman58
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Planning to BB this gameweek...down 1 player now

        1. Old Bull
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 11 days ago

          Rico, if it’s next week. Bournemouth desperate for results.

          1. sandman58
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 11 days ago

            Not sure about that one mate....no chance of a cleanie

  9. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

    Salah continues his appalling away record when Mane starts - is it even a surprise anymore?

    3,6,5,3,2,3,6,2,2,2,2 from the 11 away games when Mane started alongside him - wow

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Can’t fault the consistency.

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Yep - regular as clockwork

        Sellers before Brighton weren't unlucky that Salah hauled

        They were unlucky that Klopp decided to bench Mane

    2. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      It’s mane’s fault

    3. Maddamotha
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Why mention Mane? Doesnt Mane start in the home games alongside him?

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        See below - take Mane out, and his away points explode

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      That's 36 points from eleven away games: sou, bur, che, shu, avl, lei, tot, wol, wat, mci, ars

      When Mane hasn't started he's scored 58 points from 4 away games: 13, 14, 3, 18

      Nearly double the points in just over a third of the games

      1. Maddamotha
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Dont think you can blame Mane.

    5. sandman58
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Whats he like at home...when Mane starts??...awesome id say

  10. Champions League Varane
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Low-key hope Greenwood benched Vardy first on bench

    1. jason_ni
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      You don't deserve vardys points benching him!

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Sheffield United are good

  11. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Mane, the motivated one

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      varies from week to week

  12. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    I'm captaining Salah against Chelsea just for the fun of it.
    No one will captain him and it would be so typical for him to score a brace.

    1. socho
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      he might be rested. Painful to watch today.

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Rest for what. It's in 7 days time and no other competitions.

        1. Hulk Smash
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 11 days ago

          This lol

    2. Cojiro
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Pretty much

  13. Right In The Stanchion
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Sorry berbo only playing lad... but quit the yippin and a yappin yeah

  14. Hitmonlee
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    I was looking at getting Pulisic and Azpi out but I’m not sure that a priority looking at this performance?

    Just a blip or are they on the beach?

    1. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      They started really well but two awful gifts of goals

    2. Woy_is_back
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Pool will score

    3. Cojiro
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Arsenal goals were defensive errors. Liverpool have had vast possession, just not done much with it. So I'd still look to offload pulisic, unless you have bigger issues

      1. Hitmonlee
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Thinking Puli to Dilva

  15. FFSbet.com
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    attempts Liv 22 vs Ars 2 ...

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Exactly same as Chelsea va Norwich

      I swear in an alternate universe I’m on 110 points this gameweek with my captain still to play

  16. Vazza
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Mane to Salah a good option? Salah is hungry..

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      LOL

    2. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      I don't think he'll play well without eating

      1. Vazza
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        HAHA

    3. La Roja

  18. La Roja

    1. AC Pilkington
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

  19. pablo discobar
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Liverpool are done. Chelsea will be up for it at the weekend. I sold salah for Sterling. Have been worried but still could work out well given next weeks fixtures.

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Will play Alonso and bench TAA

    2. Greek Freak
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Chelsea will indeed be up for it at the weekend for their FA Cup match, and then tired against Liverpool 😉

    3. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Hopefully Chelsea win it at the weekend.

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        That's the spirit 😉

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 11 days ago

          Blue is the colour for 90/120 mins...

    4. Party time
      6 years, 11 days ago

      But but will Sterling start?

  20. Hulk Smash
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Thoughts on these moves targeting Norwich both weeks?

    37: TAA, Nketiah > Tarkowski, Wood
    38: Pulisic > D. Silva

    1. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Cheers lads

    2. Right In The Stanchion
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Thinking the same but greenwood out

      1. Hulk Smash
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Surely he's a keep unless out beyond this GW?

    3. jdp219
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Hard to argue.

  21. jdp219
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    1FT, 0itb, TC remaining
    1) Vardy > Ings
    2) Pulisic > Armstrong
    3) Salah > Son
    4) Trent > Tarkowski

    Pope
    Trent, Doherty, Saiss
    Salah, Pulisic, Bruno, KDB
    Vardy, Jimenez, Greenwood
    (Martin; Douglas Luiz, Aurier*, Holgate*)

    1. jdp219
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Or Salah > Sterling

    2. Hulk Smash
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      4

      Can you answer mine please

  22. faux_C
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    I guess keeping TAA and Salah on my FH was a mistake then 😆

    1. Cojiro
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Not if you would have got sterling and KDB with them

    2. TheDragon
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Playing FH was the mistake

      .. that and owning any players

      1. Greek Freak
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        FPL would've been such an easy game if it wasn't for those pesky players messing things up.

        1. TheDragon
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 11 days ago

          I hate them all except good old solid, consistent reasonably priced Jimenez

    3. GREEN IS GOOD
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      I swapped Salah to Sterling.

      But I had Dilva C

    1. JJO
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

    2. TheDragon
      • 8 Years

  25. Duke Silver ☑

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years

  27. Champions League Varane
    • 7 Years

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Why are you interested?

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        I need them for Newcastle

        But should I get him 1 weeks early?

    2. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Who would you sell to make way?

  28. G Banger
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Exact change for:

    Guendouzi + Vardy => Dilva + Ings

    Think Dilva will play last 2?

    1. Champions League Varane
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      See I’m trying to figure that out myself

  29. AD2110

    6 years, 11 days ago

    1FT and 1.7m ITB

    A) Vardy to Auba

      Yeah I got so confused. Clearly captained him and is in denial
