Gameweek 36 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) comes to a conclusion this afternoon at Anfield.

Liverpool v Arsenal gets underway at 16:30 BST.

Arne Slot has made six changes from the team that lost at Chelsea last week.

Ibrahima Konate, Conor Bradley and Andrew Robertson come back into the defence, with Ryan Gravenberch, Dominik Szoboszlai and Luis Diaz earning recalls further forward.

Jarell Quansah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Kostas Tsimikas, Wataru Endo, Harvey Elliott and Diogo Jota drop to the bench.

Arsenal, meanwhile, have made two alterations to their starting line-up.

Ben White and Leandro Trossard replace Jurrien Timber and Declan Rice, who is not in the matchday squad.


LINE-UPS

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Bradley, Konate, van Dijk, Robertson, Gravenberch, Jones, Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo, Diaz

Subs: Kelleher, Endo, Nunez, Mac Allister, Elliott, Jota, Tsimikas, Alexander-Arnold, Quansah

Arsenal XI: Raya, White, Saliba, Kiwior, Lewis-Skelly, Partey, Odegaard, Merino, Saka, Martinelli, Trossard

Subs: Neto, Tierney, Timber, Zinchenko, Sterling, Calafiori, Butler-Oyedeji, Henry-Francis, Nwaneri

    Raya. What an absolute waste of an FPL space.

      Agreed. There is absoultely no point on buying a keeper from an "elite" team. Note for me for next year.

    If I followed fpl harry and used my am in 32 and bench boost this week I’d be 60pts better off.

    Areola Konsa Roger’s on my bench

    I’m 40 pts behind in ml too much now

    May gamble

    Isak to Watkins and Pep to Potter for -4???

    Salah and Saka in this game, three goals, nothing!

  8. Kaneyonero
    • 9 Years

    Nice that the CS are gone

  9. F4L
    • 11 Years
    11 months, 13 days ago

    salah is desperate for an assist

  10. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    11 months, 13 days ago

    What to do with marmoush and sarr..... marmoush to Watkins seems a no brainer. But sarr would need to go for a hit...are you guys keeping Sarr??

    1. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      who is ur 8th attacker?

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Murphy...

    2. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      Depends a little on what you are playing for at this point

    3. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      Not entirely sure after yesterdays display. Marmoush was closer to scoring than Haaland despite just getting 6 minutes.

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Cheers

      2. TOLV TUMS
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Hopefully this is different against Bournemouth, who will definitely be a little bit more open. Big guy needs the space.

  11. Miguel Sanchez
    • 9 Years
    11 months, 13 days ago

    Thoughts on whether or not Marmoush starts against Bournemouth assuming Haaland gets the final?

    1. Flynny
      • 11 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      Wondering the same about haaland....

      Expect haaland to start with champs league on the line....doesn't help you sorry

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • 9 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Ok then that’s probably a sell for Marmoush

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      starts imo, hes their liveliest attacker. think he just starts all 3, pep wanted to give him a full rest yesterday but chucked him on when the rest werent getting the goal they needed

      alongside haaland, like before haaland got injured

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • 9 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Hmmm…. It’s tricky with the cup final being mid GW

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          11 months, 13 days ago

          yeah just fingers crossed he doesn't get a knock or anything

          Villa/chelsea hot on Cities' heels not more time for mucking about playing Foden etc

      2. TOLV TUMS
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Can easily see them playing together, based on pep’s comments from yesterday

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      Marmoush and Haaland may well start the FA Cup final.

      Pep could switch the system.

      Marmoush did more than most in the little time he was on the pitch.

    4. WVA
      • 9 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      Even if he starts he will blank

  12. Sgt. Schultz

    Bradley YC

    1. Marvin.
      • 9 Years

      Sell him.

  13. WVA
    • 9 Years
    11 months, 13 days ago

    Saka shocking shot again

  14. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    11 months, 13 days ago

    Really expected to be punished for selling Salah and Saka, got away with it this week!

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      While I own they won’t do anything

    2. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      A bit early to say you got away with anything

      1. Scapegoat Salah
        • 9 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Not really, the assets I own are usually subbed before 70 so assuming it continues 😆

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          11 months, 13 days ago

          Darn it!

      2. WVA
        • 9 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        It’s not, they will both blank, having absolute shockers

  15. WVA
    • 9 Years
    11 months, 13 days ago

    Saka asking for pen, won’t get it

  16. It’s gonna Ben Mee

        You'd never know that they've won the Prem – what a bunch of jerks.

      2. x.jim.x

    1. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      Probably because of the Real Madrid move

  20. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    11 months, 13 days ago

    Liverpool fans are horrid

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 13 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      Yep, strange bunch.

  21. Debauchy
    • 13 Years
    11 months, 13 days ago

    Idiots that booed Trent, not a brain cell between them after what he has helped Liverpool achieve.

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      Yes, I’m surprised he’s decided to go to a smaller club, maybe wants to be a bigger fish in a smaller pond

      1. Debauchy
        • 13 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Whatever mate , let the lad free fgs

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          11 months, 13 days ago

          Yes especially after he won the league for them away at Leicester

      2. BeaversWithAttitude
        • 7 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Or get out and experience life somewhere else. He's born and bred Liverpool – playing for the club since he were 6-years-old!

    2. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      Actually booing when he touches the ball. Pathetic.

    3. Marvin.
      • 9 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      To be fair if half the crowd boo and half don't, you hear the booing. If you see what I mean.

    4. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      11 months, 13 days ago

      I guess they wanted £50m or so after 20 years service

      They just feel jilted from a local lad

      1. Number14
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        11 months, 13 days ago

        Jilted after a couple of PL titles , CL , and everything else? Wow .

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          11 months, 13 days ago

          Yeah

          They don't forgive like being left in a relationship

          It's not rational

          It's emotional
