Key Liverpool assets all start in trip to Southampton

All the key Fantasy Premier League assets from Liverpool’s ranks have been handed starts for their Friday night visit to Southampton.

Mohamed Salah (£13.2m), Sadio Mané (£10.1m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.3m) are the front three as expected, with the first two of those backed by around 23% of voters in the latest captain poll.

Andrew Robertson (£6.8m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.5m) flank the defence, with Virgil van Dijk (£6.6m) starting alongside Joel Matip (£4.9m).

After a lengthy lay-off Joe Gomez (£4.8m) has travelled with the squad but is not quite ready for the bench.

The only changes to Liverpool’s side that beat Spurs at the weekend are in central midfield, far away from Fantasy concerns.

Naby Keita (£7.1m) and Fabinho (£5.5m) return to the midfield with Jordan Henderson (£5.3m) and James Milner (£5.6m) named on the bench.

Danny Ings (£5.4m) misses out for Southampton as he is ineligible to face his parent club which means a start for Shane Long (£4.6m).

Jannik Vestergaard (£4.6m) is back in the side to form part of a three-man back-line with Maya Yoshida (£4.1m) and Jan Bednarek (£4.0m).

Southampton XI: Gunn, Valery, Bednarek, Yoshida, Vestergaard, Bertrand, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Hojbjerg, Redmond, Long.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Keita, Wijnaldum, Mane, Firmino, Salah.

    How many of the large number of price changes predicted today will fail to materialize due to wildcards do we think?

  18. JohnnyMagrinho

      Going back to my initial comment about Salah scoring after running from the centre circle.

    • DAZZ
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Mo, what a superb goal, omg

    • Richd
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Farewell Salah.

      I accept your apology goal and I’ll see you next season maybe.

    • The Senate
      • 5 Years

      I preferred it when we didn’t need to consider Salah on the Wildcard

        Booking makes it an assist not a goal.

    • RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Class is permanent!

    • Salarrivederci
      • 7 Years

      That YC might cost captainers 6 points though.
      Oh well - we thought he blanked at this point..

    • Smurf

          4 years, 11 months ago

        • Top Lad Dakes.
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          He did well to run that whole way and score, especially by his recent standards.

          That might be all he needed this whole team, too
