Saturdays’s events conclude at Anfield when Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool will host champions Leicester City.

The big teamsheet news is that Klopp has made the decision to keep Philippe Coutinho on the bench, despite flying him back early from international duty with Brazil. That allows Daniel Sturridge to earn a second start of the season, whilst Lucas has to come into to central defence with Dejan Lovren ruled out with an injury sustained in training.

Claudio Ranieri’s Leicester City are unchanged as they bid to build on their 2-1 win over Swansea City in Gameweek 3. There’s no place on the bench for new signing Islam Slimani.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

  8. PvA

  11. Robe Wan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    I'm assuming everyone else benched capoue for all three hauls?

    1. Backup Dancer
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Painful.

    2. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Yes (possibly coming on this week for Coutinho but won't hold my breath)

    3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I've got 2 in my mini leagues who didn't. One is actually high in the HOF.

      Half of me thinks how is he in HOF. Then other half thinks maybe this is why

  12. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Thinking of the following moves

    gray to lukaku for free is a decent move?

    lamela to antonio for an additional -4?

    1. tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Both good moves and worth the hit IMO. Antonio price rises alone make it worth it.

    2. Backup Dancer
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Lamela back next week surely?

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Yes, but for who? I feel like Poch has to play Son now.

        Kane
        Eriksen Alli Son

        I think he'll be a super sub, imo

    3. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'm thinking about Lamela > Antonio.

      Btw, Antonio set to rise.

    4. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Keep Lamela

    5. devils advocate
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I did the exact same move this gw on my WC, so it's been a good move so far.

      If it feels good do it.

  13. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Any Hammers alive out there??? Will Zaza get dropped?

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      why would he

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Confirmed.

  14. davies
    • 11 Years

    Averages?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      25ish atm

      1. Lawrø
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Wow, is that a guess?

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          FFFix.

          A Spurs clean sheet when under the radar, a LOT of the game own one...

          1. Lawrø
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Cheers guys, higher than expected!

    2. Xuey

      Is 25 including BAPs?

  15. Bellerinmondo
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone watch the Arsenal game, how did Redmond look?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Worth keeping for Swansea.

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Decent

    3. 7alwachi
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Looked good in the first half, keep him for the Swansea game if you still own him.

    4. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Solid.

    5. PvA
      • 9 Years

      Good q

      Thanks for the replies

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 11 Years

        Looked good and Long was dreadful as well.

    6. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years

      cheers all

  16. Murph1
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Can someone tell me why Cech's OG hasn't gone down as a Tadic assist (on sky)?

    Baines identical assist for Given's OG was awarded just two weeks ago!

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      FPL moves in mysterious ways

    2. The Donald
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      the baines assist was from a penalty, very different situation 😉

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Penalty vs free kick might be an issue.

  17. Freddie Cutecat
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Re-post

    So Baines has his penalty saved last week, only for it to rebound off the post and hit the keeper and go in the goal- and he gets an assist

    But Tadic strikes a free kick only for it to be saved, hit the crossbar and rebound off the keeper into the goal- and gets no assist

    Anyone have a good explanation for that?

    Before anyone says that baines pen was not saved- Given was awarded 5 points for a pen save last gameweek so that cannot be used as an argument

    I feel I should say something officially

    1. Lawrø
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Contentious assists can get added retrospectively, don't worry about it. If it isn't added by the time the leagues update tonight then you have reason to complain.

    2. some witty pun
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      cech saved tadic's freekick

      just a guess

      1. Freddie Cutecat
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        As I explained in my post

        Given also saved baines penalty

        So that argument is not valid

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Cech tipped the ball onto the bar, then it hit him and went in, so the last touch before the own goal was not by Tadic ?

  18. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Firmino looks like a bumper car 🙂

  19. ANDER.
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Is Collins to Holebas good?

  20. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    I'm going to make all these lost points today back in GW6 with an angry Kun demolishing Swansea!

    1. Ziro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      ?? Everyone else will also have him??

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      hopefully not with his elbows

    3. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Kane got 6 more points than him this week. 😎

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Fair play for sticking, could reward you greatly next week!

  21. The Donald
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    20 points on the bench absolutely devastating

  22. More Tragic
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    " Sanchez is nailed, Sanchez doesn't do rest, Sanchez (c) "

    LOL

    1. The Donald
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      he's nailed, but apparently he does rest

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      He doesn't need to rest. Wenger is just a fool.

    3. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Haha

      This won't go down well with the Sanchez captainers

    4. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      A minimum of 78 mins played after ITB, the machine doesn't need rest...

    5. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Can we stop with this now? It is what it is. Get over it.

  23. Grand Thibauto
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Beating the scout picks by 2 points with Mane, Williams, Courtois against their Costa, Baines. Going to be very close unless Costa fires.

    1. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      You need Mane to explode

      1. Grand Thibauto
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Very much. I also want Costa to explode as I have capped him. Mixed feeling.

        1. Chucky
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          I am with you on this one.Mane and (C)osta owner here 🙂

          1. Grand Thibauto
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            I hope both your choices pay off quite well

  24. Mull
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Nice of them to not cut off You'll Never Walk Alone for once.

  25. Eden Azzzar
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Can relax this game no players #blessing

    1. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      That's not how this game works.

      1. Eden Azzzar
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Don't care how players do in this game I'm tired of fpl for tonight

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Goodnight xx

    2. Bibelnissen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Unfortunately not the way it works, mate. More stressful than ever. Points on the table for many rivals. You want a 1-1 draw with no involvement from Firmino, Mane, Coutinho, Mahrez or Vardy.

    3. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      You should be watching behind your sofa if you have no players and hope for a 1-1 with 2 OGs

      You'll learn with time

  26. Whazza
    • 13 Years

    Lamela and Gray -> Antonio and Iheanacho (-4) ?

  29. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Leicester payed silliy money for slimani just to keep him on the bench 😀

    1. davies
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Not even on the bench - we won last week so he has to wait.

    2. Grand Thibauto
      • 11 Years

      How does Okazaki starts I'll never know

      1. Whazza

        1. Grand Thibauto
          • 11 Years

          Musa is a better player.
