                    More faith in Mane vs City than Sterling vs Pool to be honest and want the switch for the foreseeable anyway so.. might as well.

                Yeah but if their players keep scoring 12 0 12 0 ... is it not better to have others scoring 6 6 6 6 but cheaper? Plus make us emotionally stable 😉

          Currently playing 352.

          Would you switch to 442, playing Rico weekly, and swap Yarmolenko and Mount to bench player and Pulisic for a hit?

          Cheeky repost, sorry:

          1FT 6.1m ITB. Connolly to Jimenez and call it G2G for now? Leaves 3.5m ITB for some flexibility

          Pope (McGovern)
          TAA / Lundstram / Rico (Soyuncu Kelly)
          Mane / KDB / Mount** / Maddison (Dendoncker)
          Vardy / Abraham / Connolly*

          Alternative include Son or Martial or someone else in but would need more convincing

              You’re right. I just can’t seem to trust them rn though, so inconsistent in the league. Jimenez feels a safer bet for now...

              Always the option of Maddison to Martial/Son if they start flying

              Aguero and Grealish weren't expecting that. Aguero hasn't scored in league at Anfield and Grealish don't rate him one bit.

                Aguero is for me the best striker in the league. IF he starts and I think he will (don't think pep trusts Jesus at Anfield) I think he does well against a shaky/nervous liverpool defence. Lovren at the back is hardly a confidence filler

                Of course Aguero doesn't have a great record at Anfield but this is the worst liverpool defence has looked for a while, I think he does well.

                Grealish seems to be playing in a more attacking role compared to the last time he was in the league. I am just going by the last few performances. He looked really good.

                I went for some slightly different picks and many won't agree but I think they are ones which I'd like to own apart from the obvious

            Not so fuzzed about Perez yet. But if he starts playing more as a striker and develop a good partnership with Vardy, then I would consider shifting him in for Mount

                I was gonna get Mane for Sterling this week but gonna hold instead, prefer Sterling as captain home to Chelsea to Liv away at Palace, I'll get either Mane or Salah after that. I'm a little bit scared of no Liv attack if Bravo starts, lol.
