All major players present and correct for Double Gameweek Triple Captaincy

All the major players are present and correct for the first big Triple Captaincy event of the 2019/20 season.

The Liverpool team sheet for their Double Gameweek 24 trip to Wolves has come with no unpleasant surprises.

Sadio Mané (£12.5m), Roberto Firmino (£9.5m) and Mohamed Salah (£12.4m) all keep their places in the front-three while the back-four remains unchanged from the side that beat Manchester United last time out.

That means, as usual, that Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.6m) and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) are the full-backs either side of Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m) and Joe Gomez (£5.2m).

Tonight’s match is set to be a big one in the course of the Fantasy Premier League season with so many Triple Captain chips in play.

39.3% of the top 10k Fantasy managers deployed the enhanced armband for Double Gameweek 24, with Salah and Mané largely the ones trusted with it.

Meanwhile, there are a number of different combinations when it comes to the most popular Liverpool triple-up, so it will be interesting to see which one proves the highest-scoring, although we still have next week’s trip to West Ham to look forward to.

Meanwhile, Wolves have also named a relatively straight forward line-up with Raúl Jiménez (£7.5m) and Adama Traoré (£5.7m) both in the front-three.

The biggest team news from Nuno Espirito Santo’s perspective sees previously injured Diogo Jota (£6.1m) and Willy Boly (£4.7m) back on the bench.

Their return should mean good things for Wolves’ prospects in the coming weeks.

Wolves XI: Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Dendoncker; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; Neto, Jiménez, Traoré.

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Robertson, van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold; J Henderson, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Mané, Firmino, Salah.

    Someone find me a Mané triple captainer who was gloating about Vardy last night.

      What goes around comes around for that lad

      Will that give you more points?

    Hurry up and give pool a penalty

    That TC chip always sucks

    Are Mane owners pleased with his injury if they didn’t captain/TC him?

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      No

    2. Sun Jihai

      Yes, EO >q100%

    3. TAT
      • 6 Years

      No, because I'm on a massive red already. 50K rank drop with Salah TC.

      1. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Your red would be a lot bigger if Mane hauled...

        1. TAT
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Didn't want him to haul, but at least provide more points.

          1. Brosstan
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Your red increases for every point he gets.

            1. TAT
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              Of course, but still wanted some points of of him. I got Mini league rivals with double Liverpool def + Salah.

    4. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      With his ownership being over 100, yes

    5. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Not if Salah hauls

    6. antis0cial
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      No. Feels like a kick in the teeth for having high enough team value to double up on attack.

    7. moment
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Yes - makes the decision of which of Salah / Mane to get rid of much easier after this week

    8. Volley127
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      No doubt.

    When it's so bad it leads to delirium.

      That TC is going to haunt me forever. 🙁

        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

    TAA TC is on course for 90+ points as I said.

    People pretending to be sorry for Mane TC players. Personally I’m loving it and so are you

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Being a non owner helps 😉

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Conflicted, but I do fell sorry for people. If that was Bobby I woudl go do something else for 2 weeks, best not think about it

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Fair play 🙂

      Hopefully Mane comes back next week

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        6 day break helps

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          You can always hope 😉

      2. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Mane may yet be the winner

    4. teknicolourfox
      • 10 Years

      Haha sametrue

    5. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Nothing surprises me in FPL

      You just take these things on the chin and move on

    6. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Happy in FPL terms, sorry in "sporting" terms (aka "may the best player win")

    7. Bilbao Baggins
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Fair play. I'd be shocked but secretly delighted if I didn't own. Obv wouldn't wish a serious injury on some one but yeah I'd be happy too in your situation.

    8. Egg noodle
      • 14 Years

      A bit of sportsmanship is always welcome

  11. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Mane match fixing? Very suspicious "injury". Betting against himself on daily fantasy sports?

    1. Bilbao Baggins
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Ha. He must need the money.

  12. El Matador
    • 10 Years

    Salah won't do sh*t here

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years

      Scored and assist last match here

  13. Budweiser

    My rival wildcarded and could have 5 players missing next week!

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Your rival is 2mil though, not much of a rival

      1. Gnu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yep, used both his wildcards and his free hit.
        Probably wondering why his TC chip didn't work this week!! 😉

        1. Budweiser
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah he was hahaha

    2. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Not the toughest of rivals is he?

  14. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Omg the drama !!!

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

    Mane triple cappers turning into medical experts saying he will be fine next week

  16. El-Kloppico
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Will Mané be awarded the assist.. Just to even it out.. Sort of!

    1. Vinyl78LP
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Need to see a super slow replay for that one.

  17. The Mighty Hippo
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Hopefully Minamino will pass to Salah. That would be one upside of Mane going off.

    1. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Mane brought Mo face to face with Rui but he bottled it as always

  18. Camino Aleatorio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Ranking destroyed!

    Mane has ruined me

  19. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Relax, Salah will score!

    1. El Matador
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      1 goal isn't enough

  20. Gerd Mueller’s thighs

    But mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?

    1. Better off with a pin and a…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Nice grav.

  21. el polako
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Sane last year, Mane this year.

    Next year I will TC Jakanbkash or some else like that.

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Same

  22. Yank Revolution
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Eat it Raul!

  23. Earn your Spurs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    How many points is a TC success?

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      10+

    2. Regin
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      36 or more minimum

      1. HashAttack
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        that's about right - it's only two 6 pointers, which would be pretty poor really

    3. teknicolourfox
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      More than 3

  24. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Lateriser knows...

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Fun fact, his partner chose his name

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      was Mane the eye test pick?

    3. tucaoneo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Mark knows too.

  25. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    really hope mane is ok as a pool fan

  26. Bobby
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Its the finality of it. In one moment. Everything's gone to sh*t.

    1. FPL_Gyarados
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Yep. Not even at 20pts yet. Looking like my worst GW of the season. DGW and TC Mané. Just another nail in this years awful luck coffin. Dropping in rank like a stone.

  27. Regin
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Really need a taa own goal

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Beat it

  28. Danno - Emre Canada
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    To be honest Mane didn’t look right from the off, usual tracking back he would have done wasn’t there, seemed a bit off the pace, maybe there’s a virus going around

  29. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Just give me hope is there any chance for Mane to be fit in 6 days???
    P.S. I don't think so

  30. Champ
