Free-flowing Liverpool display bodes well for Newcastle trip

Fantasy Premier League managers were treated to a preview of Gameweek 38+ as the goals flowed in Liverpool’s 5-3 win over Chelsea on Wednesday evening. 

It was a night where each side’s defences went on holiday and the floodgates opened up, usually the hallmark of the last day of the season.

On the basis of this performance, there will be plenty of interest in Liverpool attackers as they travel to Newcastle on Sunday, but Fantasy managers may have to ask some important questions as they prepare for the closing weekend of 2019/20.

Firstly, for all the Reds’ free-flowing football, which could punish an injury-stricken Magpies squad, they will be travelling to St. James’ Park in the wake of celebrating lifting the Premier League trophy. The last time they played after a big party they were soundly beaten 4-0 by Manchester City. While Newcastle are unlikely to be as punishing as Pep Guardiola’s men, there are sure to be concerns of a Liverpool performance akin to that defeat on Sunday…

But provided Jurgen Klopp can encourage a stronger focus on the next match than we saw with that heavy Etihad loss, there were a lot of encouraging signs about his attackers against Chelsea.

Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) is sure to go into Gameweek 38+ with a bee under his bonnet after he was unfortunate to miss out on a goal for the third match in a row. The Egyptian was, as ever, the most threatening Liverpool forward in terms of shots produced and chances created for him, while Sadio Mané (£12.2m) did not shoot once.

Despite a heavy involvement in the regular forays into Chelsea’s territory, Salah could muster only an assist for Georginio Wijnaldum’s (£5.4m) first-half goal. And when the premium midfielder was replaced by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (£6.1m) in the 79th minute, he was positively thunder-faced.

With just one match left of the season, Salah sits four goals behind Jamie Vardy (£9.7m) in the race for the Premier League Golden Boot. While clinching the award seems unlikely at this point, it will almost certainly be on the Egyptian’s mind on the final weekend of the campaign. If Liverpool can replicate the free-flowing display of Wednesday night, and Salah keeps up his involvement in those attacks, a big haul is hardly off the cards. He may have to work on his finishing in the next few days though, especially after spooning a golden chance wide in the second-half when he was clear through on goal.

After recording just one attacking return between Gameweeks 30+ and 36+, Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.7m) was back to his scintillating best against Chelsea, becoming the first defender of the season to go past the 200-point barrier. Currently sat on 209 for the campaign, he is just five points off breaking the record for most points in a season for a defender, set last year by colleague Andrew Robertson (£7.0m).

Against Chelsea, the right-back struck home a routine direct free-kick in the first half before throwing up a trademark cross in the second, nodded home by Roberto Firmino (£9.3m). Both of those events bode well for a Gameweek 38+ meeting with Newcastle, the Magpies sitting inside the bottom three for headed goal attempts allowed and set-play attempts conceded since the Premier League restart.

Those statistics may also be of a benefit to Robertson who continues to have a hand in Liverpool corners, nearly earning an assist for a Salah goal in the second half against Chelsea, a previous corner also leading to Wijnaldum’s first-half strike. The left-back got the attacking return his crosses deserved in the 84th minute when his ball sailed through the middle of the Chelsea defence to be turned in by Oxlade-Chamberlain. That made for Robertson’s fourth assist of the restart period, double the number recorded by Alexander-Arnold.

Obviously, the Reds were helped by continual issues with Chelsea’s defence. They have now gone an entire Premier League campaign with just one clean sheet on the road and only four sides have conceded more goals from set pieces than Frank Lampard’s men. While they have managed seven clean sheets at home, their susceptibility to corners may convince owners of Willy Boly (£4.9m) or Romain Saïss (£4.8m) to start them for Gameweek 38+. Meanwhile, Chelsea’s general issues with defending, made worse by continued poor performances from Kepa Arrizabalaga (£5.4m), is sure to be enough evidence to hold onto Raúl Jiménez (£8.1m) for one last hurrah.

That said, as much as Chelsea struggled at the back, they offered plenty of attacking threat at Anfield. Liverpool’s defence has not been at its best since the restart, keeping just three of their 15 clean sheets since Gameweek 30+, but owners of Christian Pulisic (£7.4m) should feel particularly encouraged ahead of the final round of fixtures. 

Despite only playing 31 minutes, the American managed a goal and assist for a nine-point score. During this time on the pitch, Pulisic looked unplayable, exploiting the space behind Liverpool’s defence to cross for Tammy Abraham (£7.4m) to tap-in and net an excellent swivelled finish of his own. Whether he will get as much of freedom against a compact Wolves side remains to be seen, but the mid-priced midfielder has now delivered attacking returns in all but one match since the Premier League restart, averaging 6.8 points per game during that period.

Liverpool XI (4-3-3): Alisson; Robertson, van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold; Wijnaldum (Milner 66’), Fabinho, Keïta (C Jones 66’); Mané (Origi 87’), Firmino (Minamino 87’), Salah (Oxlade-Chamberlain 79’).

Chelsea XI (3-4-3): Kepa; Rüdiger, Zouma, Azpilicueta; Alonso (Emerson 88’), Kovačić, Jorginho, R James; Mount (Pulisic 58’), Giroud (Abraham 58’), Willian (Hudson-Odoi 58’).

    Is it fine to get rid of Salah for below BB team:-

    Pope Martinez
    VVD AWB Doherty Tarkowski Aurier
    Bruno KDB Foden Sterling Cantwell
    Ings Kane Greenwood

    Yay or Nay?

    1. ZakyJ
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      What you changing to and from? Doubt Foden starts and Cantwell obviously a weak link

      1. klopp2567

        3 years, 8 months ago

        Salah vardy lascellas nyland out

  2. sovietrockettes
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Signing off with a -8:

    Foden>Dilva, Bruno>Mahrez, Ings>JRod

    McCarthy
    Digne Tark Aurier
    Salah Sterling(c) Mahrez Martial Dilva
    Kane Greenwood

    JRod Lamptey Boly Foster

    1. Martial Matas
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Only city to city move I'd do for a hit would be to bring in Sterling.

      1. Davemc23
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I'd play jrod over greenwood

      2. MartialMatas
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Hey

    2. ZakyJ
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Can't you just do Bruno to Silva for (0)? Ings +8 is better than Mahrez

      1. Davemc23
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Good point

  3. Kaiser123
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    -8 hit...Would you folk do this Jimi/KDB/Foden to Nkeit,Sterling/Dsilva.
    Or Puli to Dsilva for free.

    Front 7/8 would is
    KDB, Foden, Martial, Bruno, Puli
    Rash, Kane, Jimi

    To

    Sterling Dsilva Martial, Bruno, Puli
    Kane, Rash, Any 4.5

    1. ZakyJ
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Pili to Silva for free.

      KDB +8 is easily better than sterling

      Jimi and puli are a push

    2. Poison Apple
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I would get rid of 1 of the man u attackers ahead of pulisic.
      Fwiw
      Something like bruno to dilva and upgrade kdb to sterling with a -4.

    3. Davemc23
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Bruno + Rash > Dilva + Auba?

      1. ZakyJ
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I like this, Watford go 2 down and they'll implode

  4. Phil's Stamps
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    If Leicester finish 5th but Man U win the EL, do they qualify for the Champions League?

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

      Nope

      1. Davemc23
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Yes. Max 5 teams from any one country

  5. Ci Siamo
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    I am all about Always Cheating's attempt to MFFA (Make Fantasy Fun Again). Definitely an attempt to help mental health in this overly frustrating game:

    1) Try to always pick a team that has fixtures on every day of a GW (especially Monday night) to have something to psychologically look forward to.

    2) If your captain blanks, treat yourself to a take-away meal that evening or day after.

    3) Create a 'Coop FPL' type league on an Excel document where you combine the points of you and one other person in your ML. Something else to play for in a fun way

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

      I would have put on a lot if weight with rule 2 this season

    2. Martial Matas
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      It'll be more 'Make Fantasy Fat Again' with rule 2!

      1. Ci Siamo
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Haha good point

    3. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Hulk this someone. My mood swings according to my FPL performance have been getting out of hand since the restart (and I still have my best rank ever at this stage in the season).

      You can imagine a bad gw being the straw that breaks some poor bugger's back sooner or later.

  6. Miguel Sanchez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Mendy (NOR) or Digne (BOU)?

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Mendy

      Everton can’t be trusted for a clean sheet which he needs to get bonus

    2. Egg noodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Certainly not Digne.

      Still not sure if Mendy will start though. Pep is crazy

    3. Traction Engine Foot
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I'd prefer Mendy of the two if he starts, would rather have a City attacker though.

  7. Atters
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Willian to Dilva for a - 4 worth it?

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Think so

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

    A or B please: for a -4

    A - Salah - Sterling - Saka - Ings

    B - Sterling - Foden - Bruno - Kane

    Current team is:

    Patricio

    TAA - Doherty - Digne

    Bruno - Kdb - Martial - Salah - Foden

    Greenwood - Vardy

    (Button - DCL - Holgate - Lascelles)

    1. Moose™
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Prefer A.. Bruno looks knackered

  9. McSauce
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Ok so only 3 options for me this week;

    A) Bruno --> Dilva

      1. The FPL Units
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Nope. 3 x pool and MC. Even thinking just Ings up front and have 2 x Burnley definitely as well.

    2. Davemc23
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Lose Bruno. Upgrade greenwood

  13. Kodap

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Wait for leaked team news - that might decide for you.

      If you knew they’d all start then I’d do A

      1. Kodap
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        How likely are we to hear leaked team news though? I never know.

  14. Poison Apple
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  18. gers23
    • 12 Years

    Who's the most sensible to captain if leading mini league?

      1. Davemc23
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Definitely not Bruno. He can hardly walk he's so tired

  19. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Most productive pairing for the final Gameweek folks?????
    A- Greenwood and Tarkowski
    Or

    Many thanks!!

    1. TheDragon

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers mate, would you got Aurier or Burnley defence?? I have no Burnley cover and worried about FH teams having double or Treble

        1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          But... Aurier has attacking threat

          1. TheDragon
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            I’d get Pieters/ Tarkowski for those reasons but Aurier is a perfectly good alternative

            1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 6 Years
              3 years, 8 months ago

              Yeah think il end up playing safe and doing so, Aurier is way more exiting tho!! Haha thanks again mate!! Best of luck!!

  20. Bullet Eder
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Van Dijk and Aurier in 38 or 2 x Burnley defenders?

    1. Moose™
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      2 burnley

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      VVD and Aurier

    3. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      2 Burnley. Pope chasing golden glove is huge factor

    4. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Burnley but depends what you do with the extra cash.

    5. ZakyJ
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Is TAA and Burnley Def around same price at first 2?

  21. jakvin340
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Ings or Jimi, that’s the question... ?

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Ings

    2. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Jimmy

    3. Bobby_Baggio
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      both - Jimi will get goal and 3 BAPS

  22. Traction Engine Foot
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    No idea what to do with my free transfer here, any ideas? 0.6 itb.

    Pope,
    TAA, AWB, Doherty
    Sterling, Mahrez, KDB, Bruno
    Auba, Greenwood, Jimenez

    Martin, Fernandez, Ward, Guendouzi

    Want Kane but requires a hit. I guess the boring move would be AWB to Aurier/Burnley defender..

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      No D Silva either 🙁

      1. Traction Engine Foot
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I was looking at KDB, Jim to Silva, Kane for -4 but not sure it's worth it..

  23. Sepp Blattered
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Heading into the final week 39 points behind ML rival, and he has Triple (c) - any suggestions?

    Predicted Rival Team (1 FT - 1.9 ITB)

    Martinez (4.0)
    TAA, Wan Bissaka, Doherty (Fernandez, Egan)
    Sterling (ccc), Fernandes, Martial, Pulisic, David SIlva
    Jiminez, Ings, (Gayle)

    My Current Team (0 FT - 4.3 ITB)

    McCarthy (Fabianski)
    Alonso, Wan Bissaka, Pieters (Boly, Holgate)
    Sterling, Fernandes, Marial, Pulisic, Foden
    Auba, Wood, (Giroud)

    Need to go rogue..... enough funds to do -4 Giroud to Kane (c) currently

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Would definitely take the hit for Kane.

      Why don’t you C Sterling? Cancel out his chip

        Sorry I read this as you were leading

    3. dunas_dog

      It’s your best move but your midfield not as strong so I am afraid unlikely to make up the gap. I am in similar position 39 points behind and looking at getting in both Kane and Salah for Vardy KDB as final shot

        D man. You about if I post below for some advice? Really need your thoughts bro

        1. Davemc23
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Do that transfer but your teams are too similar so don't see you bridging the gap. Sorry

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

          Yes about for next 15 minutes then later on this afternoon- happy to help.

          What would you do here? I am 39 points behind ML rival (respective teams below) so need to take some risks to try and catch (which has to be very unlikely unless my captain hauls and his fails). I can think of a lot of options but your thoughts welcome.

          I am thinking either (for hit- got 2 m in bank)

          A Vardy to Kane (c) and KDB Foden to Mahrez D Silva
          B Vardy to Ings, and KDB to Mane (c) and Foden to D Silva (.1m short of Salah in this set up)
          C Vardy to Ings, Sterling to Salah (c) and Foden to Mahrez
          D Vardy to Kane, KDB to Salah and Bruno to Antonio

          This is ML leader team (I think he is almost certain to captain Sterling or possibly Aubameyang and will use transfer on defender)
          Pope
          Pieters Aurier Dunk
          KDB Sterling Pulisic Martial Son
          Aubameyang Jesus

          Button Greenwood Saiss Kiko Femenia

          My team (pre any moves)
          TAA Maguire Doherty
          Sterling KDB Foden Martial Bruno
          Woods Vardy

          Pope Aurier Nketiah Fernandez

          1. Rinseboy
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            That's tough. His team is good.
            Your best move is probably A.
            Captain Kane.

            I guess you can't afford Bruno and Foden to Dilva and Son?

            1. Rinseboy
              • 12 Years
              3 years, 8 months ago

              ignore that he has Son. Vardy to Kane. Foden to Dilva and dgrade Doherty maybe?

                Thanks- who is best option do you think up to 5.2 m- Bardsley? He has Pieters

                1. Rinseboy
                  • 12 Years
                  3 years, 8 months ago

                  yep Bardsley. I would do that.

                  Youre TAA Maguire Kane Dilva Bruno Woods could beat him but its a big gap!

                    Thanks- unlikely I know but have to do all I can to retain title! Also hopefully might get close to top 10K overall which would be good outcome.

                    Hindsight wonderful but if I had got Kane last week and had captained Sterling over Martial both of which I seriously considered gap would have been 15

                      • 12 Years
                      3 years, 8 months ago

                      yeah tight margins. I was losing by 10 and captained Sterling and overtook him by 20! Was bricking it tho up until the city game!

            Play Aurier and Maguire and lose Doh for a Burnley def

    Is there a chance Button plays the last game for Brighton?

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Why?

  26. I Member
    • 8 Years

    Bruno or Martial?

    1. ShackledAce
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Bruno, pens and set pieces

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Not on the next pen

      2. ShackledAce
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Not sold on the rotation. He's reliable and its an important game

    2. drughi

      Martial

    Anyone not owning Sterling vs NOR ?

    If there ever were a gw this season where i'd be shitting my self for not owning a player its Sterling this gw

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      I’ve brought him in and going triple city

      So for the perfect end to the season I fully expect Man City to lose 1-0 and for united va Leicester to be a 5 -5 thriller

    2. Bobby_Baggio
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Looking like it for me - Going with DSilva and Kane - if i want sterling i need to take a -4

    3. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Currently me.

      Want to keep Salah and KdB so only way to get Raz for me is to downgrade Vardy to Ayew and then Willian to Raz.

      In all honesty, the easier move for me is Rashford and Willian to Kane and Trezeguet and TC Kane. That’s for -4. Any decent team with Raz in needs a -8 for me.

      Just have to hope it’s one of those games where everyone gambles on Sterling and KdB or Mahrez ends up hauling instead.

  28. RAFA THE GAFFA

    People selling Puli, what’s your reasoning? Wolves defence? I’m looking to bring him in on FH, he looked scary not to own last night in such a small cameo

    1. ShackledAce
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Have him, and yesterday changed my mind on selling him

    2. HurriKane
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Wolves defence is more resilient and will be a tight game.

    3. drughi
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      wolves will sit back though, different game totally but still a good pick

    4. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      He was amazing yesterday but didn’t do much in the previous games.

      With Mount doing alright he might get reduced minutes
      And Wolves defence is excellent

      Still a good option though

    1 point lead in ML, rival has FH. Current front 8

    Pulisic Bruno Martial KDB Foden
    Jesus Wood Vardy

    Just Foden to Dilva and hope for the best? Who to bench?

      Foden to Dilva sounds great! Don’t take any hits - good luck 🙂

      1. Baron Penguin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years

        Thank you. Who do I bench? Pulisic or Wood I’m thinking.

        1. That TV angle at Highbury
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Would bench Wood 🙂

  30. That TV angle at Highbury
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    I have finally settled on a great draft for my free hit team. The thinking behind is to get as many possible goals/assists in the lineup also in defense - any changes needed?

    Martínez / 3.9
    TAA Robbo Pieters / Bardsley Williams
    Salah Sterling Dilva(C) Martial / McCarthy
    Kane Jesus Greenwood

    1. Baron Penguin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Like it - 4-4-2 or 4-3-3?

      1. Baron Penguin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        3-4-3 not 4-3-3

        1. That TV angle at Highbury
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 8 months ago

          Thinking 4-3-3 - good idea?

          1. That TV angle at Highbury
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 8 months ago

            Ahh made the same mistanke - 3-4-3 🙂
