I can take a measure of unpredictability. I can take taking a risk that fails. I can't take having my team ripped apart with very little chance of fielding 9 players next week, let alone 11. After lots of planning, to see it fail so spectacularly is next-level demoralising.

Well said Swipwr, a bit OTT, dramaqueenesque !

I've captained Aguero practically every week he's been fit and the returns have been largely disappointing. That didn't matter though because I had a plan. I would wait until a double game week and then unleash triple captaincy Aguero. Only last week my entire plan unravelled. I was rash, I wasted my triple captaincy on Lukaku, a fatal mistake only compounded by my decision to captain Martial yesterday at the last minute ahead of Aguero. I now sit here in a flood of tears, thinking about what could have been. Victory was in my grasp but I fluffed my lines.

Sanchez is going to get a goal assist and 3 bonus today and all will be well in my world

Please let this happen. 40 behind in my league and he captained Aguero. I need a good performance today from Sanchez.

Rumoured Liverpool team according to FFS:

Ward, Randall, Kolo, Lucas, Smith, Ojo, Stewart, Allen, Ibe, Firmino, Sturridge

41(-8) from 4, captain to play and BB active you'd think I would be delighted , I have a horrible feeling about today if that team sheet is true, have Migs and Coutinho.

It's just stupid this year though. It has well crossed the point of unpredictable. There's a reason so many consistently good players are doing so poorly, and no amount of rubbish about those people not adapting quickly enough etc will cover for it.

I'm using my first chip this week but regardless of whether it's a success or not the introduction of the chips has been as ridiculous as it seemed when they announced it last summer. Assists are being given/not given without any semblance of consistency which is having much too much of an impact almost every week. Any bit of valuable time spent planning goes out the window 9 times out of 10.

I'd be very happy with that Liverpool team if true as I only have Sturridge.

Mint Sauce

7 more players today involved in the madness. Although not liking the look of that rumoured Liverpool team.

ScummyMan

We all knew the risks of picking Liverpool players. Teams still in a big competition with nothing else to play for are going to rotate big time, it's a no brainer.

Benimar

Has there been anything other than 'rumours' to suggest that Liverpool will play the reserves??

The 2CBs and Coutinho were rested last Sunday so hardly need another one?!

Klopp is on record 2 weeks ago saying that he wanted to see Ward play but it was unlikely he could play him this season.

Let's wait on the team before we have a meltdown - and I will have a meltdown if it's true, from an FPL and real life point of view (I'm a Liverpool fan)

Sanchez hattrick today and midweek to save my season...not too much to ask

Lights On

Lol at that Liverpool team if it's true, which going by all the leaked Pool teams this season it more than likely is. Sakho, Coutinho & Sturridge the 3 I have. 1 out of 3 ain't bad

Well then.

Cypher_sounds

Is Milner on the bench even?

stephenl15

You just have to laugh. Mig and Sakho here

Ziegler1988

Lanzini and Milner bench for me, FML

spock.

No Carroll

Lights On

So much for all the talk about Sakho being safe after getting the rest :pac:

Need a Sturridge hattrick to make up for the two missing players

Lanzini, Coutinho, and Sakho hanging out on my bench.

Best bench boost ever.

No Moreno, but other players will be pissed off much more :eek:

My bro brought and captained Milner.

Benimar

That's just f**king ridiculous.

As a Liverpool fan I'm disgusted at that team

As an FPL player its killed my ML hopes. Went Milner and Mitrovic over Spacecraft and Sturridge!

The WC has killed my season.

Lanzini not playing either...

Ditto on the WC shout...

stephenl15

The one gameweek all season I play Sakho, Mignolet, Mitrovic. Second time owning Martial. Bloody joke

spock.

3 Liverpool for me - 1 starts, 1 benched, 1 not in squad.
Come on Firmino!!!!

Paully D

Due to actually spending time planning, I'm most likely going to lose my main league this gameweek.

Cartman78

Klopp must have given Lovern extra time off to celebrate his goal.

At least Firminio and Sturridge are starting for me, could have been a lot worse.

Lights On

Can't wait to see that Arsenal team later on...

It's a pathetic lineup from Klopp, they're 4 points with a game in hand behind 6th place and he completely changes the team bar 3 regulars in April. Can't believe I thought Milner was safe

IsMiseMyself

I'd nearly bet on Gabriel not starting to complete the destruction.

OneColdHand

Continue, lovren, mig and Lanzini in my team.

The mad thing is, I don't even really care anymore. Those lineups summarise this cluster f*ck of a season perfectly.

Sanxchez not starting would be the funniest thing ever but Wenger has no reason to rest players.

It was a fair assumption on Milner. I broughtin Sakho and Mignolet in 33 wc so had to just risk Sakho and hope he started after seeing them go through in EL. But Mignolet, sure that's just awful awful luck. 1st choice keeper with a double and game in 35. He'll complement Robles perfectly:rolleyes::rolleyes:

That's why it makes sense:D

I have Sanchez captained, but it is a disaster so far...

Antonio is my only super power in these early games...

Yeh I'm done with it now just ridiculous. Mig, Clyne and Cout for me wtf!

If they were complete punts I wouldn't mind. But I specifically picked mig, lovren and Lanzini as I thought they were secure. Continue was a risk, but went with him due to points potential if he did play.

To have lovren and countinho dropped for 2 games is a row is pretty damn unlucky

El Horseboxo

I've Firmino and Sturridge so happy there. Also have Mignolet. Which I'm baffled about. Why does a keeper need a rest. Hopefully ward runs into the goal post before the 30th minute mark.

thunderdog

Sakho
Coutinho
Mignolet
Darmian
Lukaku
Martial

Some week to use the bench boost

stephenl15

Watch Firmino and Sturridge run riot and mysteriously every man and his dog on here will have had both of them...

spock.

I sold Mahrez for Milner... this will be a fun couple of hours.

q2ice

I have Coutinho but the person ahead of me in ML has played bench boost and has Mignolet, Sakho & Coutinho.
Could be a chance to gain more ground on him.

Only selected by 4.2%, Payet is 33.4%.

I ended up with both.

stephenl15

Plus side for me: Payet, Mahrez and Simpson start

COH

Firmino plays - phew! Offsets the disaster of Mignolet on the bench and Moreno not even in the squat
