What to do with Liverpool’s FPL assets after their Premier League title win?

Liverpool 4-0 Crystal Palace

  • Goals: Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.8m), Mohamed Salah (£12.7m), Fabinho (£5.4m), Sadio Mane (£12.5m)
  • Assists: Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m), Fabinho, Andrew Robertson (£7.0m), Salah
  • Bonus: Fabinho x3, Alexander-Arnold x2, Mane x1

Liverpool have won their first-ever Premier League title following Manchester City’s 2-1 defeat at Chelsea on Thursday.

The Reds had inched closer to that elusive crown on Wednesday evening with a crushing victory over an outclassed Crystal Palace.

Roy Hodgson’s side had won their previous four league matches, all involving clean sheets, so a tough night for the hosts was expected by many.

But if Palace arrived at Anfield in form, they left it infirm, with key attacker Wilfried Zaha (£6.7m) potentially sidelined with a calf injury and a re-jigged defensive unit pulled apart by an irresistible Reds front line.

A return to the swashbuckling form that characterised much of the first half of Liverpool’s season might be pleasing on the eye, but it creates Fantasy headaches.

The destination of the title has now been decided and, as a result, questions over motivation among the players and how strong the desire of Jurgen Klopp to give squad members pitch-time for their post-coronation celebration tour will now be at the forefront of Fantasy managers’ minds.

But with a Premier League points record up for grabs, no Champions League on the horizon and a team seemingly back to their exhilarating best, just how much will Klopp chop and change from here on in?

Rotation has certainly been a factor in the first two Ganeweeks back, with Mohamed Salah (£12.7m) and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) returning to the fray last night.

That was welcome news for their Fantasy Premier League (FPL) owners, 36.9% and 18% respectively, and neither player disappointed.

Salah looked sharp throughout, scoring one goal and setting up another, while Robertson produced an assist and a 12th clean sheet to bring in a tidy nine-point haul.

Liverpool started briskly, with Georginio Wijnaldum (£5.4m) going close before Zaha went off injured after 14 minutes and the Reds took total control.

They opened the scoring when Jordan Ayew (£5.2m) eased Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m) off the ball and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.8m) curled home an exquisite free-kick.

That proved to be the Palace striker’s most meaningful input across 84 minutes of fruitless toil involving one chance created and zero attempts on goal – testament to both Liverpool’s dominance and the visitors’ limited ambitions.

The goal was Alexander-Arnold’s third of a campaign that has also included a mind-boggling 14 assists – only Kevin De Bruyne (£10.7m) has more – and an FPL points total of 187, with his sixth double-digit haul of the season bringing him level with teammate Sadio Mane (£12.5m).

Injuries to James Milner (£5.3m) and Joel Matip (£5.2m), which required Joe Gomez (£5.3m) to slot in alongside Van Dijk against Palace, should mean a bit less competition for Alexander-Arnold’s place in the side.

But Klopp spoke about rotation post-match, saying:

It was clear we had the first two games in pretty much three days which is difficult, and other teams had to do it as well. Then eight days off, nobody wants that.

After that it will be really, really tough with four games in nine days… and we will need them all, they will all play and they will all have game time, which is nice.

But Alexander-Arnold looks to be one of the key players likely to play much of the rest of this season, even if starlet Neco Williams (£4.0m) was given a 16-minute league debut last night.

Fantasy managers, thus far at least, agree as the right-back is currently the only Liverpool player in the top 30 for Gameweek 32+ transfers-in.

Last night’s lead was doubled when Fabinho (£5.4m) dinked a ball into the area for Salah to control with one touch and score with the next.

It was a simple goal beautifully executed, whereas Liverpool’s third was a classic screamer, Fabinho blasting home from 30 yards out following a pass from Robertson.

The scoring was rounded off with a fine, one-touch breakaway goal involving a superb through ball from Salah and a cool finish from Mane.

Such was Liverpool’s dominance – they harried and hassled the visitors all night – that further goals should have arrived, with Jordan Henderson (£5.3m) and Salah (twice) going close.

And the display was so impressive that it will be a brave coach who tinkers too much with a team in such fine fettle.

For context, however, Palace’s woefulness needs a mention.

Hodgson brought keeper Wayne Hennessey (£4.2m) and Mamadou Sakho (£5.0m) into the backline and neither impressed, while the team’s attacking intent can be summed up in one, incredibly damning, stat: Liverpool had 44 total touches in the opposition penalty area, Palace had none.

The Eagles have a mixed bag of fixtures to see out the season, but few are likely to be as chasteningly one-sided as this one, so it was no surprise that Hodgson heaped praise on Liverpool  rather than blame his own team’s shortcomings.

The Palace boss went on to provide an update on Zaha:

It’s a calf muscle strain. There were some discussions as to whether he should attempt to play, but he was adamant it was something he could try to get away with. It became obvious he couldn’t and we don’t want him to be out for a long period.

We don’t have the squad numbers, the bodies when our players go down. We have four forwards competing for three places.

Hodgson’s Liverpool counterpart was considerably more tigerish, and rightly so:

You shouldn’t underestimate how much this team wants it. You should not. This team really wants it; they want to fulfil the wishes of the people at home. We all have a common dream, but we have to work for it and we have to work our way for it.

That desire should mean Liverpool’s key players need to feature in our Fantasy thoughts for a while longer, regardless of the league having finally been won.

Because if they can continue showing anything close to the form they displayed against Palace, it will be hard for Fantasy managers to ignore the points potential on offer from the likes of Salah, Mane and Alexander-Arnold.


Liverpool XI (4-3-3): Alisson; Robertson (Elliott 84′), Alexander-Arnold (Williams 74′), Gomez, van Dijk; Fabinho, Henderson (Oxlade-Chamberlain 64′), Wijnaldum; Firmino (Minamino 74′), Mane (Keita 84′), Salah.

Crystal Palace XI (4-3-3): Hennessey; Ward, van Aanholt, Cahill, Sakho; Kouyate (Milivojevic 66′), McArthur (Riedewald 66′), McCarthy; Zaha (Meyer 15′), Townsend, Ayew (Keutcha 84′).

    Any changes to be made to this
    Pope - Button
    TAA - Doherty - Aurier - Lascelles - Gibson
    De Bruyne - Son - Fernandes - Martial - Pulisic
    Rashford - Jimenez - Nketiah

    1. RVP20

      On Wildcard with 0itb

      1. FreddyP3
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I still think Pulisic is a trap but not many good alternatives. Looks good

        1. FreddyP3
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Personally think Alonso will our score him for rest of the season went with him instead

    2. Slacker
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Wouldn't change much tbh

  2. reo19uk
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    So after that United display Martial seems like he could be the main man and essential. Problem is to get him I would have to sell Salah , Kdb or Bruno! Don't really like the idea of selling any but probably Bruno would be most likely to go for him!

    What do people think is Martial a must have or a one off good match?

    1. Louis Van Gaalstones
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Wait and see, he's incredibly hot and cold.

      1. reo19uk
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        thinking it's hold off this week and maybe change next week depending how he looks in next match.

        Problem is going up in price tonight, also watching Bruno the other night he was very impressive but much less involved in the attacks with Greenwood in over James.

    2. FPL_DON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I’m holding for this GW atleast, Brighton look solid and have fernandes and rash

      1. reo19uk
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I have same so really only person I could bring him in for this week would be Bruno. He been so good since singing but seemed a lot less involved in attacks with Greenwood in for James it was very much him playing behind those 3 rather than pushing in but that might just be a 1 off!

  3. Threat Level Midnight
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Had Rashford in and Salah captained until 1 minute before deadline on my free hit.

    Did Rash > Vardy and switched the captaincy to Vardy as time expired.

    I am a mush.

  4. Scout15
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Starting XI:

    DDG
    TAA - Lascelles - Justin
    KDB - Mahrez - Martial - Barnes
    Auba - Vardy - Jimenez

    Should I use FH this week?

    1. Luton_Fan
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Not imo

  5. Athletic Nasherbo
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Aguero > Rashford

    Anything for a hit here?

    Henderson
    TAA Doherty Egan
    KdB Fernandes Richarlison Grealish
    Aubameyang(C) Rashford DCL

    Nyland Cantwell Lundstram Aarons

    1. Threat Level Midnight
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Nope, good to go

    2. Luton_Fan
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Grealish to pulisic maybe

      1. Threat Level Midnight
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Not for a hit.

      2. Athletic Nasherbo
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Debating Pulisic, Martial or Mahrez...might wait a week but Lateriser12 (love his style of play) advises to attack each week. Not sure Grealish gets anything

  6. Slacker
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Chelsea cover essential?

  7. TheCurseOfRaheem
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Having an absolutely diabolical season. 360K only TC left. Previous worst was my first year at 96K, anyone else just getting every single 50-50 choice wrong this year?

    Can’t wait for next season though, a bad one really does put the fire in your belly.

    1. FPL_DON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Struggled with the 50/50’s this year Too, I’ve found most success sticking with players

      1. TheCurseOfRaheem
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Can’t remember getting so many wrong in a row, even this week I swapped AWB and Salah to Maguire and Mane 6 minutes before deadline.

        Lot of lessons to be learned for
        me this year. Definitely won’t be so patient with transfers again, my team value was shattered after a few weeks haha.

        1. V-2 Schneiderlin
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          I swapped out Foden for Gundogan (more game time I assumed) just before the deadline for post-lockdown team

    2. V-2 Schneiderlin
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah a terrible year for me at 380K - am usually consistently around 20K or higher - just one of those years - brought in players too late & made wrong captain choices

  8. The Royal Robin
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Best captain pick for GW32?

    1. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      jordan henderson

  9. FPLMarc
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Thinking of going with this as my WC:

    De Gea - Martin
    Trent - Saiss - Holgate - C Taylor - N Williams (when Trent is rested)
    Salah - KDB - Martial - Sarr - Cantwell/Noble
    Aubameyang - Jimenez - Calvert Lewin

    (with Rashford in for Auba next week)

    What do you think?

    1. The Royal Robin
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I really don't recommend Aubameyang. It's painful to own him.

      1. FPL_DON
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Haha, feel for you bro

      2. TheCurseOfRaheem
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I second this.

    2. Ron_Swanson
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Looking good

  10. Niho992
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    After tonight Liverpool is without doubt biggest club in England.

    19+6 > 20+3

    1. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Liverpool already had more trophies before tonight.

      Unless you want to count the Charity Shield.

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        allez allez allez

      2. Niho992
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Who counts that friendly cup ?

      3. UnitedFan
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Congrats Berbs.

        1. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Many thanks my friend

    2. UnitedFan
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Most successful, but I still think United are 'bigger'. Would you agree?

      1. Niho992
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Nope, but i respect your opinion

      2. mrodgers91
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Man u probably have more fans in the world, think they came above liverpool financially in the latest list too.

    3. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      give it one more year

    4. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      When Liverpool are financially bigger than Utd then yes. Until then Utd are the bigger club. Liverpool are arguably the more successful of the two but there’s not a lot in it in that sense.

      Although if you add Utd’s 12 FA Cups to Liverpool’s 7 then they would be the bigger club on both counts.

  11. Alli
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Bruno > Martial or save?

    Pope - Martin
    TAA - Doherty - Maguire - Saiss - Lascelles
    Mané - KDB - Son - Fernandes - Guendouzi
    Rashford - Jiménez - Ayew

    1. FPL_DON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Save

    2. Slacker
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      FT? If you dont have a lot of value in Bruno you could just try it out.

      1. Alli
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Yes FT and I don't have a lot of value in Bruno. Would save me 0.6.

    3. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      That’s a downgrade. Martial
      Is too inconsistent. However, I have both. 😉

  12. n14mul
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    No doubt it has been asked....

    A. Martial
    B. Fernandes

    I dont have rashford yet. I do feel if pogba plays more fernandes may be less fruitful as the players will also feed pogba the ball. Whereas before there was only fernandes.

    Thoughts please

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      C get both

  13. DIMITRIS
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Whom to get instead of McBurnie ( hes 5.7 and I have 2.0 in bank) ?
    Ings, DCL, Jota or someone else?
    Any suggestion welcomed

    1. mrodgers91
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Ings is not a long term pick. Man city at home then Everton and man u away. Giroud might be considered if he stays 1st choice ahead of tammy

      1. DIMITRIS
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah, probaby he's not (Ings). The one tempting me the most is Jota as he's alwas looking sharp, plus Wolwes have nice run of fixtures. The only thing that worries me is his playing time

        1. mrodgers91
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Started both games so far and lasted over 60 mins. Wolves seem to switch between 343 and 352, traore seems to be the one who gets benched in 352. Has always started seasons slowly and got points towards the back end of a season and this is basically a new start after so long off

          1. DIMITRIS
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            He has Villa and Arsenal as his next two games. He might just get something out of those two games. Comparing him with DCL who has Leicester and Spurs, he's looking as a better option. Will probably opt for him.
            Cheers 🙂

            1. mrodgers91
              • 6 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              Just looked at the other options for less than 8m and cant see anything other than jota or giroud

    2. Arron Wan Bissaka Nil
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Jota till 36, then Ings maybe?

  14. Arron Wan Bissaka Nil
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Pick 4 of the following for just GW32

    Kane, Son, Bruno, Martial, Pulisic, Willian, Pepe, Nketiah

    1. DIMITRIS
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Nketiah Kane Pulisic

      1. DIMITRIS
        • 5 Years

        and Son

  15. jdp219
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Save FT, right?

    Pope
    TAA, Saiss, Doherty
    Salah, Bruno(v), KDB, Son
    Jimenez(c), DCL, Nketiah
    (Martin; Saka, Lascelles, Holgate)

  16. mrodgers91
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    We have all seen how badly city play without fernandinho over the last few years whether it be injury or suspension. I see no reason why liverpool cant go there and get a result

    1. DIMITRIS
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      To me it looks like a dull 1-1 draw incoming

    2. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      With Jesus starting City will be a different beast. Pep mucked up his starters

      1. Long ago I drew a walrus
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Why does Jesus starting lessen the impact of Fernandinho's absence

  17. Totti
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    front 8

    Salah KDB bruno son 4.2
    rashford calvert jimmy

    1 FT 0 itb

    A) KDB -> martial
    B) other suggestion

    1. FPL_DON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Same front 8 (see below), thinking of sticking

    2. FreddyP3
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Would rather sell Salah in that case. Pool starters will be hard to trust going forward imo

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        and why we trust KDB?
        i feel salah would like to play to get top scorer of PL third time in a row and to equal alan shearer 🙂

        1. FreddyP3
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Well City still have the hope of getting the decision overturned in cas. And then they still need a few more wins to secure a top 4 spot 🙂

          1. Totti
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            but if kevin started against newcastle can't see him playing against liver

  18. Niho992
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Sterling owners i would sell him, no way he will start vs Liverpool, we know why

    1. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      will the virtual fans boo him?

  19. FPL_DON
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Hi all, any thoughts on the below? Martial is incredibly tempting, but feel like sticking is probably best bet for now. Would appreciate any feedback!

        Cheers bud

    2. Totti
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      i'm thinking to take a risk on martial
      i feel 3 from liver and city too much after title ended

      1. FPL_DON
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I feel really uncertain on how that game will go, could definitely see goals

        1. Totti
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          if de bruyne starts against newcastle
          i doubt to play against liver

          1. FPL_DON
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            I do take your point bro, but he’s been unreal this season

            1. Totti
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              yea i know but he lost the motivation now to play,
              man city will focus on FA cup and CL
              can't see him playing all the matches in PL
              and next match against liverpool

            2. Totti
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              don't forget that the game after brighton for man u will be bournmouth at old trafford 🙂 which might be a goals festival for man u

  20. DIMITRIS
    • 5 Years

    Whats going on with Tammy Abraham? Was he not fit to play last two games from start or did he just lost his place in the first 11 ?

      lost place to Olivier the mail man

    2. FreddyP3

      The only thing I see Abraham do is complain. To his team mates and ref. Glad we see more of giroud.

    Would you take a 4 point hit to bring Pulisic in for Jota? Would involve formation reconfiguration

    1. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      no

    2. FPL_DON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      No

    What would you consider a safe lead in mini league at this point?

    1. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      50

    2. mrodgers91
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      100 points? Anything can happen now, I'm 40 ahead and dont feel anywhere near safe

      1. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Exactly! I've got a similar lead in my leagues but still worried

    3. reo19uk
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I'm considering 50 points as a good lead atm and 100 points as secure but we all know things can change in just 1 bad or good week

  23. Dr. Agabuse
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    what excactly are you all seeing in Pulisic except that he scored on an absolute calamitous Mendy double error.

    Didnt seem threatening beyond that and punished us all massively a couple of months ago with the same kind of fixtures

    1. DIMITRIS
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      this

    2. mrodgers91
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Maybe one to look at next season depending on other chelsea transfers but I wouldnt get him yet

    3. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      He is playing City though, decent team...

      I’m sure West Ham, Watford, Palace, Sheff will provide similar tests

  24. Dr. Agabuse
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Pope Martin
    TAA Alonso Doherty Taylor Lampey
    Salah KDB Son Fernandes Martial
    Jimmy Nketiah Greenwood

    is where its at but i wont use my WC to there from

    Pope Martin
    TAA Alonso Doherty Taylor Soyuncu
    Salah KDB Son Saka Cantwell
    Jimmy Rashy DCL

  25. Niho992
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Who to bench out of these ?

    A : Nketiah (probably starts vs worst team in the league)
    B : Mount (easy fixture, but not much involved)
    C : Grealish(tough fixture, he' s not great lately but he is Villa talisman)

    I'm thinking B...

    1. amonito
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Tonight Mount was sharp.I would bench Grealish.

    2. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      c

      Wolves just started with 2CS and Grealish with 3 blanks

    3. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      although i see mounts place under threat. so many options in that midfield minefield

      1. Niho992
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I think he will rest in FA cup and then start in the league

    4. mrodgers91
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Grealish blanked in last 5 games with bad fixtures coming up, I would consider selling rather than bench

      1. Niho992
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        i already made transfer Leno to Martinez.

        I will sell Grealish GW after

        1. Dr. Agabuse
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          this is one where -4 will come good but actually in your case--- Mount will do the job this and hopefully the following weeks for you and you seem to have a well rotating squad.

            cheers fam

    Tiniest of greens from the wc. Any thoughts? Tempted by Gwood, Rich to Nketiah, Martial (-4)

    Foster
    Trent Doh Aurier
    Son KDB Mahrez Rich Bruno
    Jimi Rash
    (Martin, Greenwood, Lascelles, Kiko)

    1. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      not just Rich!

      1. Dr. Agabuse
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        oh
        i see.

    2. TIME TO VARTY
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Would you start Nketiah in that case and who you leave out?

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Potentially Mahrez vs Liverpool

  27. amonito
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Help, guys!
    Who to bench GW 32+?

    Salah KDB Son Martial Pulisic
    Jim Rash Nketiah

    I just can't ignore Nketiah vs Norwich...

    1. MOZIL
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Pulisic or kdb

    2. FreddyP3
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Pulisic

  28. Dr. Agabuse
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    with the league over and fixtures promising Foden looks like an option or will he start one, bench one and rotate in pep roulette, yeah he will, rivals got him.

    i think if you do it right it can be massive but it will be the opposite.
    you start him when hes played the week before and scored and he will be benched.
    then you obv bench him and he'll start again and the points are glued to your bench again.

  29. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Who to transfer out for Pulisic?

    A) Barnes
    B) Armstrong

    1. marquinhos
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      B

    Be very interesting see how liverpool do next year. Man city were the first team to successfully defend league title since utd in 09 so its not easy

    Hopefully klopp stays for a long time and we get more title races like last season's

    1. goriuanx
      • 13 Years

      Depends on City and CL.

      VVD is the difference between the two teams at the moment. City need to go out and find their own version.

      1. Long ago I drew a walrus
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Laporte is their VVD. They don't have a Gomez though. Also missing a top class striker to replace Aguero cos Jesus isn't at the same level

        1. Nightcrawler
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Laporte is their gomez they need a VVD

        2. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Laporte is nowhere near VVD. Let's be real.

          1. Long ago I drew a walrus
            • 13 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Maybe so, but he plays the role that VVD plays in the City team. Title race would have been much closer if he wasn't missing for half the season. City don't need a defender that's better than Laporte, they just need somewhere that can match his level and not Otamendi or Stones

      2. Nightcrawler
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Yes defensively city are miles behind. Ederson not nearly as good as allison too imo and same goes for the fullbacks

        I think city will be relying on pool to drop a level or two. City may have better quality individualy overall but pool on a different kevel as a team

        90-95 points is what city's max range is atm and dont see that going up

    2. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Other teams are nowhere near Liverpool.
