    Liverpool fan with Mbuemo in my FPL team. Uurrgh.

    1. Brosstan

      Thats called hedging your bets

  2. Qaiss

    £35 a month to watch Liverpoolfantv.. I mean sky sports

    Go away Carragher

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Yeah, and Gary Neville is completely unbiased

      1. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        He slates United more than anyone else

        1. TheBiffas
          • 5 Years
          9 months, 1 day ago

          Because you're generally pretty rubbish... point is he will only talk about United

      2. Qaiss

        Neville has never called players by their first name or nickname during a match. He’s only biased with his predictions, not when commentating on a game

    That goal basically guarantees Bruno blank....utd will be defending the entire game now

    1. el polako
      • 9 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      The only thing this goal guarantees is that United are ahead.
      Many things can happen and B.F. have many routes to points.

      11 defcons again? 😉

  4. Brosstan

    9 months, 1 day ago

    Damn, VVD wastes Salah A

  5. el polako
    • 9 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Salah poor first touch.

  6. FOREST FOREVER 2
    • 1 Year

    Kerkez has been a weak link in pool defense.

    1. tutankamun
      • 16 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Along with VVD, Konate and whomever is playing RB…

  7. Count of Monte Hristo

    Salah form and confidence in the gutter

    1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon

      Never write Salah off. Guarantee he will score against this lower division team

      1. Cilly Bonnolly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 months, 1 day ago

        Your team’s in a relegation spot mate.

  8. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Salah's first touch is gone.

  9. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Bruno will go even deeper to defend 0-1.....terrible pick....must get rid

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      No way they can defend a one goal lead.

  10. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    That was close to a penalty

    A couple of seasons ago that was stonewall when VAR was intervening

    Gakpo post

  12. The Bandit

  13. F4L

    gakpo hits post from salah a

  14. Zalk
    • 14 Years

    Haha, Neville rather talk about issues in Van Dijk's defending than the quality of the pass and shot of Amad/Mbeumo. Kinda tells you how dominant Van Dijk is.

  15. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 months, 1 day ago

    Unlucky Gakpo

    He's definitely on form

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Yeah he's passing the eye-test for sure. Will probably do Reijnders/Xavi to King/Gakpo this week with my 2FT

  16. The Bandit

    Has Isak touched the ball yet? 🙁

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      Haven't even heard his name.

    2. iFash@FPL
      • 2 Years
      9 months, 1 day ago

      He has come to upset the team equilibrium since his arrival. Not that I’m complaining… 🙂

  17. Sting

    i have gakpo and mbeumo in this game.

    that would have vindicated keeping both through price drops
