    What would you do here? I’m thinking:

    Kun & Son ——> Jimenez & Mane(c) (-4)

    Ryan
    TAA-Taylor-Lunds
    Salah-Kdb-Martial-Son*
    DCL-Ings-Kun*

    Subs:Button-Cathcart-Soy-Romeu
    1ft & 0itb

      Aguero out for a hit is a massive risk however the two you’re bringing in also have great fixtures, could easily go either way

    Thoughts on Richarlison, I know the fixtures seem tough but he has the stats this season.

    Plus a seeming lack of options in midfield currently makes him a good pick in my opinion.

    8.41 expected goals conceded (xGC) by Liverpool over the last ten Gameweeks, a period that has seen the Reds record nine clean sheets and ship only one goal. Chelsea‘s xGC (8.00) is actually better than Jurgen Klopp’s side’s over the same period but the Blues have conceded on 12 occasions and registered just two shut-outs.

    This is proof that fpl is a lot of luck

        Is he not a rotation risk with dendoncker now though?

          I didn’t think so. Tonight he played back in the back 3 which maybe raises a risk, but up until now he’s been further forward.

          His stats are better than Boly in last two but also understand the Boly pic. He is very trendy round here and does get bonus points.

    Traore coming off early, so he should now start right?
