  I capped Son but somehow it didn't save and have Salah (c) instead. Also have Toney and Watkins, also sold Bowen for Mo and Kerkez for Gusto. I'm not good at FPL this year!

Don't think Salah assist because would of been offside without the Veltman touch.

  No, Diaz was not offside even without Veltman’s touch. But that is not an assist anyway.

Newcastle United can confirm that club captain Jamaal Lascelles suffered a rupture to the ACL in his right knee during Saturday’s victory over West Ham United.

After seeing a specialist consultant, he is expected to undergo surgery next week and will be out for 6-9 months.

    Maybe. I don't think Howe fully trusts Hall as left back in a back four. Depends on Trippier and Livra fitness. Might see Krafth, Schar and Burn as a back three with wingbacks.

Klopp has to take off Salah at HT. He was that bad. I think he is generally done as a player of EPL level. He can only score from a pen or an empty netter

That Salah shot was pathetic but he's always been like that. Every game he has loads of moments where he hits an embarrassing shot or pass but he'll score one eventually and we'll all pretend he's one of the best players in the world.
