The most-captained and most-bought player of Gameweek 12 features in the third of five matches on a busy Sunday afternoon of Premier League football.

Mohamed Salah (£12.3m) was transferred in by just over 400,000 Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of Friday’s deadline and now sits in more than one in three FPL squads.

Over 1.5 million Fantasy bosses have handed him the armband today.

Jurgen Klopp’s only two changes from Gameweek 11 sees two first-team regulars return from injury.

Alisson (£5.9m) is back in goal in place of Caoimhin Kelleher (£4.5m), while Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.2m) ousts Neco Williams (£4.0m) from the right-back spot.

Diogo Jota (£7.0m) misses out as expected and the former Wolves player could well be out until February, with his manager saying ahead of kick-off:

It’s worse than we first thought and better than we then thought. The potential surgeons had a look at it, no surgery needed but he will be out for a while. We don’t know exactly… one-and-a-half, two months?

It’s pretty similar with Kostas Tsimikas, by the way. Unbelievable.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (£6.3m) is back on the bench for the visitors.

Fulham make one change from the side that lost 2-0 at Manchester City, with Mario Lemina (£4.5m) replacing the benched Harrison Reed (£4.4m).

Aleksandar Mitrovic (£5.6m) is not in the Cottagers’ squad having picked up a minor knock in training.


Fulham XI: Areola, Aina, Andersen, Adarabioyo, De Cordova-Reid, Anguissa, Lemina, Robinson, Lookman, Loftus-Cheek, Cavaleiro.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Fabinho, Robertson, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Jones, Salah, Firmino, Mané.

    Wow, good decision by the ref. VAR has been so anti-Pool this season

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Hahahaha

    2. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      haha nice one 😉

  2. Flair

    5 years, 7 months ago

    With fans back it's time to stop captaining away players unless a clear standout exists

  3. The Red Devil
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Though Fulham would've probably missed the penalty had it been given
    (Which would've been the right decision)

  4. WVA
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    You can't get the ball by going through the player you mups

    1. JONALDINHO
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      He didn’t even touch cavaleiro hahaha. The Liverpool hatred is through the roof

    2. Cookie Kid
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      You’re in the minority

    3. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I think the grey area was if he was already slipping over

    4. JonSnow
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      The ref kept it as a corner so he must have thought he got the ball. That camera angle looked like a very different story

  5. Pukki Party
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Fulham please stop attacking

  6. Nomar
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Mane capper here. Fulham wuz robbed. That was a pen.

  7. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Odd one. Arguably Fabinho gets the ball under Cavaleiro's foot. Brave of Marriner to not reverse the call.

  8. Fudgy
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Lol such a rigged league

    1. Marvin.
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Keep away from scissors mate.

      1. DaveZubie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        And Scousers

  9. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Salah will blank today.

    Non owners do not need to worry.

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      That's easy for you to say but we all know it will change.

    2. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Reverse jinx??

    3. Cruyff Turn
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Nah, he'll get something.

  10. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Liverpool very poor so far

  11. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone else thought Fabinho kicked the Fulham player's foot onto the ball?

    1. On The Up
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      100% cant belive it wasn't given

      1. Duke Silver ☑
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Tbf to Mariner, the angle they showed him on the monitor was the wrong angle. They should've shown the one along the goal lline.

    2. Says
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      yes

    3. Nomar
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      This. As someone else just said, you can’t go through the man to get the ball.

      But teams at the wrong end of the table always get shafted by decisions like this. Happens every season.

    4. @persecuted_by_mods
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Yup this, even if he did touch the ball you can't go through the player anyway

      1. Duke Silver ☑
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah I assume that's why VAR referred this to the ref but they showed the wrong angle on the monitor for Mariner!

  12. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    Lie down Fulham

  13. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    That was a clear pen.

    1. CaptMidnight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      No it wasn't.

      1. Nomar
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        It was.

  14. Says
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Notice had they no freezed frame int e replay where he touched the ball

  15. ☈☾
    • 8 Years

    Jammy Kane Cappers winning again

    1. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Are you sure Kane's goals are jammy?

  16. Flair
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Was that a pen or not?

    1. On The Up
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      100% caught the player before the ball

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        This

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      If the ref gave it it wouldn’t have been overturned.

      One of them ones...

      1. On The Up
        • 16 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Course it wouldn't have been overturned because it was a penalty

    3. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Clear as day pen

    4. Chalobah's Witness
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      It was a clear dive. Fabinho didn't even touch him.

  17. F_Ivanovic
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    The decision of pen/no pen isn't even relevant. The fact it took 3 mins to come to that conclusion is ridiculous.

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Didn’t need to be looked at. At all.

  18. OverTinker
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    atleast match kane salah(C)

  19. Bushwhacker
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Blimey it’s a good job people on this board who “may” have biased viewpoints aren’t in the VAR box....

  20. Mr. O'Connell
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    May go with the Lookman Soucek double up in midfield

  21. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
    • 17 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    All the deluded UTD fans here complaining about VAR. Sorry but it's hard to take you seriously. Comedy gold 😆

  22. WVA
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    If that was Salah, sterling, Rashford etc, 100% pen given!?

    1. ivantys
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Just Salah and Kane

    2. OverTinker
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Bruno

  23. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    1. Fudgy
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Same

  24. Fudgy
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Salah in was the biggest mistake I've ever made

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I doubt that somehow, did you never go Ayia Napa!

      1. Fudgy
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Yes and Malia

  25. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Fun fact, Liverpool has kept only 1 clean sheet in the last 9 away games in the premier league.
