A Gameweek that has delivered modest returns so far, continues at pace with an tea-time encounter of some promise.

Liverpool host Manchester City at Anfield, with Fantasy managers on alert and on a scouting mission as Sergio Aguero makes a return from a four-match ban to lead the attack for Pep Guardiola’s men.

There’s also a significant change in the Reds line-up, as manager Jurgen Klopp brings Emre Can into his starting XI, shifting Roberto Firmino back to the central striker role, with Divock Origi dropping to the bench.

The Belgian went into Gameweek 19 found in more than 434,000 FPL squads having provided four goals and two assists in his last six appearances.

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

  16. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years

  17. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Firmino just cross the F€£¥in ball. Jeez

    1. The Overthinker
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Frustrating to be a firmino owner tbh
      Waiting for Walcott to be fit again.

  18. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    If aguero isn't subbed, how likely is he to start v burnley? Considering that game kicks off in exactly 44 hours and 6 minutes?

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      It's the same for all of them but he has had the most rest

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        He's very injury prone though... If he starts & pulls up injured...

    2. bojack
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Should play. Especially if they lose.

    3. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Say what you want about Pep, he always manages to find a supplier no matter which country he is in.

  19. Lawrø
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Did Firmino really just try a marseille roulette there?!? He's so overrated

    1. bojack
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Dived as well.

    2. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      and pool fans say firmino was sniped from united. how gullible are you lot.

      1. Lawrø
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Sorry, what exactly is your point?

    3. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Looked like Taz the Tazmanian Devil

  20. bojack
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Firmino showboating. What a complete Divock.

  21. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Alonso assist 🙂

  22. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    KDB FPL Poison at 10.6m

    1. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      never bet on a 10 million pound man

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Pep has taken him & silva & neutralised two very good FPL players. Bleurgh.

  23. Crystal Ball
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Ball to origi looked so much easier there

    1. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Right?!

  24. cuervos
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I have two WBA players and bringing in Phillips so:
    a)McAuley to Brunt/Ake
    b)Holebas to Ake

    Defoe to
    1) Negredo
    2) Rondon

    1. MarvelouSuccess
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      keep mcauley. get ake. keep defoe.

  25. Jimmy Boy

    What do you make of Sterling's performance tonight?

    1. bojack
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Not great so far but neither are Citeh.

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Lively, Citys most dangerous but Milner has him atm.

    3. Christina.
      • 16 Years

      kak

    4. WVA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Awful player imo

  26. Jay_
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Winjaldum 32
      Mignolet 25
      Lovren 24
      Zabaleta Klavan 22
      Clyne 18

    • white lightning
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      After that Alonso adjustment it puts me on 43 with Sanchez. Eriksen & Holebas to play. Negredo's 5 points sitting on my bench. I've had Phillips for a while so to see his 13 points in my team is great (played him over Negredo).
      This week with 2 ft I'm doing:
      Cedric & Siggy out - Ake & Lallana in

      Thoughts on these transfers. Thanks.

    • Licky

      This ref and that linesman on our side is a complete joke.

      1. Licky
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Complete joke.

      2. dudload

    • sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Midgame, sorry:

      Was going to go Hole to Brunt, but more sensible to so Siggy to Phillips right?

      1. MarvelouSuccess
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        siggy to capoue imo. he's due a goal. 😉

        1. sminkypinky
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah no... 🙂

      Lalllana, have a banana

      1. Hooky
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        He'd just backheel it off the pitch like Barnes did
