      had him last 6 weeks and he has chipped in nicely in the Fulham and

        Well that sort of helps cheers.

        I don't have the bench atm so he plays and he needs to be viable hence the questions specifics.

        My 4th and 5th are Mitchell and Kilman.

          I reckon it’s 50/50 he starts, and we’re away at Fulham, so less chance of him hauling than at Anfield even if he does

          As long as the third winger is Lucas or Bergwijn, Kane and Son are going to have an insane goal involvement %. Kane as long as is fit is insanely underpriced, Son too. Hard to go wrong with either.

    So Klopp whinges about the tough schedule yet when the opportunity arrives to rest his entire first team he starts his best player and leaves him out there for 90 minutes in a dead rubber of a game. Put Liverpool on all of the 12:30 Saturday games I say.

      If he rest him vs Fulham, then it really do make sense. If not, then it is prolly because Salah's fitness level is 2nd to none in that team. It is fair to complain imo. OGS and Pep has complained as well

    Feel like that is close to a "perfect" team. Obviously no City/Spurs defenders and no DCL is not ideal, but you can't have them all.

          That front 3 is a nightmare waiting to happen. Kane is gonna outscore all three of them week after week, and that's not even after week 16 when their fixtures look plum.

          I agree you can't have them all but I just dont think your team is close to perfect.

          Lamptey Fodder Lewis Brewster dont make for perfect.

    Messed this up before, here is the correct version:

    From next week:

    A) Son & 4.7 def, probably Coufal (bench of Lamptey & Brewster)
    B) Watkins & Robbo (Soucek , Lamptey bench, 0.7 ITB).

    A allows that sexy midfield of Salah KDB Bruno Son Grealish, but B is more balanced an more prudent over the busy Winter schedule. Only real rotation risk in the rest of the team is R. James. Leaning towards B at the mo.

    Cheers.

        Thanks. Yeah, this is what I'm thinking, or even Wilson if he keeps up his good form. Also that money ITB means I don't need to worry too much about switching in and out -and maybe back in again- players for the DGWs. But if Son keeps it up and the other heavy hitters are still firing it might be tricky to being him in later.

      Salah was fit and wanted to play and get the CL scoring record. Klopp wanted to win the game. Klopp wanted a senior player to guide the youngsters. There's 3 possible reasons.

      Salah could rotate against Fulham, it's not impossible, but it's still far more likely he starts
