How Liverpool’s key FPL assets compare ahead of 2019/20

Salah all day for me

Serious differential if he does, literally no-one on here has him

Depends on who was gonna start ahead of Deknocker

B

B

B - but with Ings

Same here.

My punt's on Adams and I've kept the 0.5 itb.

Ings is just a transfer waiting to happen, heard good things about Adams on here so tempted to gamble on him despite fixtures

If he’s your second forward I’d consider maybe Perez (if you can) or Barkley in midfield instead but otherwise it’s a coin flip decision

Fuchs throw

Wood

Lanzini

Sean Longstaff

Why Ceballos? I want to learn. Based on his stats he gets an attacking return like every ninth game

Barkley/KWP

And seriously considering rotating mctominay

Tielemans

Trossard at Brighton. Not sure ill start the season with him, but could be an interesting option.

Sanè

Out of those 6, the only one i would want wk1 is Wilson.
The rest are wait and see

A

Thanks guys

I really like that and it's a little different than 'the template'.

I've dropped Walker down to Maguire and swapped Barkley for Perez but it's close either way.

I think you need a big hitter up front to have transfer flexibility

Too stressful waiting for the teamsheet

Week in week out, no
Going cathcart early on and will watch who emerges

Soyuncu could be or Dunk if he moved to Leicester

Going with Dunk

Cos they are trying to squeeze in 3 defenders over 6mill

That extra 1m is way too valuable. Would rather a Liverpool defender over Allison for the attacking points

I made that point this morning to a regular poster and he got really aggressive. But then an article posted earlier today completely proved my - and your point. So never mind what most people do - you just go ahead and do the right thing.

Either go all out with Allison/Ederson or go cheap imo. Most people already have 3 Liverpool players or have Zinchenko as a cheaper alternative to Ederson. The 5.5 gk bracket ain’t worth imo

These were my thoughts on the matter.

If you take 4.0 as the base you have to spend on the GK positions the first 0.5 you spend on a 4.5 like Heaton or Pope can get you 150 points in a good season. The 2.0 you have to spend on Ederson/Allison at 6.0 can get you 170 points. So for me the value is with the 4.5 GK. Just gotta get on the right one early with Heaton, Henderson and Pope all very good options.

I normally like 4.5 options but don't like any of the choices this season to start the season with for different reasons. Ryan is risky because of the new manager with more offensive mindset, Pope and Henderson have bad fixtures first couple of GWs and while I haven't watched them much last season, Aston Villa's manager also seems to prioritise attack and their defensive stats in Championship don't look good at all.

No, new signing

And it is still Jordan Ibe!

Actually might do Wilson to King and Ryan to to Alison
VVD to Laporte

Any better?

Agree - but I always thought they were cringe... there wasn't one that I thought was cool

Zinch / Dinge / Barkley

Dunk, Zinch, Barkley

I'd look for another option to replace Ceballos but B between those two.

Think it might be trossard

They signed a winger yesterday

No, Danjuma signed

Probably the only way to do a SSK draft...

Will Jota be a regular and a striker?

AWB is safe bet imo. Jota has higher upside

Jota's fixtures aren't very good and Europa league is likely to increase rotation or minutes throughout the season so I prefer AWB + 1m.

I'm all behind it. Always followed the principle even though I couldn't have thrown out any figures. It can partly depend on whether your Starting X (never mind GKs) are nailed or subject to rotation though. But I've always said a dead keeper and one dead sub is okay but you must have 2 active subs to cover unpredictable scenarios. This year we're lucky to have Donckers as an easy 4.5 mid but the big trap for many is getting a 4m defender. These guys if they make the pitch at all are often benched in real life by GW3 never to see grass again, and they just become millstones on your squad. I recommend having a playing 4.5 defender to join Donckers, and the depending on your formation one bottom-of-the-barrel end-of-bench pick.

Well I have gone without Salah/Sterling in favour of a good overall squad. Two Chelsea lads Azapiliceuta and Barkley on the bench with Dendonker.

I plan to use those Chesea players gw3 onwards for definite
The bench can be a good place to 'store' players for future fixtures.
Burnley would be another team who come good in about a months time gw5

Me too. Only Sterling as a 10m+ premium.

Where do you mean ? Screenshot?

First time playing in that system. He was slow first half of the season last year ... wait and see for me

And I thought my Mo and Sterling free side was offbeat!

You could be well ahead of the pack of course with a viable first sub. The principle prob I see with your exit strategy is that it leaves you with King - much the least desirable option.

Why not take Jota over King?

Tbh it's too risky to start the season without Salah and Sterling, especially as Salah will be the most captained player by a big margin in GW1. Yes it could pay off, but you could also fall behind considerably if things don't go your way.

Depends on your risk acceptance level I guess.

Fraser and Digne

I agree with the other poster Fraser and Digne - unless you can afford Barkley on your bench.
