Do the Anfield Express have leaked teams every week? Can’t help but feel those being accurate would be invaluable over the next 2 gameweeks.

Most weeks. I'll post it here if I get it. Some weeks its in the Liverpool thread aswell.

I shall be following closely. I took Salah out last week but I wouldn’t be entirely against admitting defeat and bringing him back in if I decided he was very likely to start both this weekend and against West Brom. I’ll need to follow the draw for the semi finals and see how many days between West Brom and the first leg.

My immediate inclination is that he doesn’t start both games, but a leaked lineup and a favourable fixture time might sway me.

Both games before the Semi Final are 12:30 on the Saturday

Should not need to rest anyone

That said, they play the current bottom 2 teams in the league so would be the ideal time to rest anyone with a little niggle

I think the players will want to play every game - pushing for Semi Final places now, especially in midfield

Be careful about Anfield Express though. They're not always right.

Justice for Kane.

All to late for us captainers though.

#FPL Managers...

While Spurs' 2nd goal v Stoke has been awarded to @HKane after a further review, this will not be re-assigned in #FPL in accordance with the game's rules: https://t.co/ujGsEa6Xez https://t.co/IsgI6en0Fu

What an absolute all round joke

If they thought he touched it then it should have been awarded Saturday
There is no new video evidence
So Saturday they thought he didn’t touch it and despite not being able to prove he didn’t took the goal away
Few days later randomly award it again

TYpical FA bias. Let's just move on

“They took his testimony into account “ apparently
Ridiculous decision tbh

No new video evidence since they reviewed first
So as I said at the time they really should have made sure they had enough video evidence to prove he DIDNT touch it before taking it away once it was awarded to him .
Now they are suddenly seeing a touch they couldn’t see Saturday ?
Ridiculous and very annoying from a FF POV

I wonder will bookies pay out if people backed him ......

The golden boot race is real
Making me have second thoughts about playing TC before 37

manual_man

Makes me feel a bit better about still having Salah all the same

extra gravy

Hope Salah gets 10 goals against Bournemouth now.

2nd Row Donkey

Well Kane is a much better player than Salah to be fair.

I don’t think your logic here is right, the goal was marked as TBC pretty much immediately. This isn’t a criminal case so it’s not a thing where you have to find indisputable proof that he didn’t touch it. If you check it in detail and don’t see him touching it you don’t give the goal.

The FA have decided to give the England number 1 striker a goal, that there is pretty much no evidence he scored, and if I was Salah and I cared at all about that golden boot (he might not) id be mighty pissed off about that.

Whether he touched it or not is irrelevant now. He has been officially awarded a premier league goal yet we don't get points in FPL. Ridiculous

You know this happens frequently right? The dubious goals panel change things often enough.

The dubious goal panel are a dubious bunch.

That much is certain now. If we can’t see you score a goal, but you say you scored it, it’s yours now?

I so, so hope Salah wins the Golden Boot now. And the POTY. And the Champions League. And the World Cup.

The whole thing makes Kane look a tiny bit petty. Imagine the Twitter furore if Balotelli was out swearing on his family’s life that he scored a goal that other people had logically concluded he hadn’t touched.

He wants to leave and wants Real so another goalden boot will help that.

I have no idea whether that first part is true, but having a tantrum over your teammate being awarded a goal is serious bedwetter stuff. Just a week before you had Aubameyang letting his mate who hadn’t score in a while take a penalty, while he’s on a hattrick. Some difference in mentality.

More importantly we know Harry will be motivated for a GW37 TC, regardless of league position.

Auba was also my captain
As was Kane

I want points

That’s the thing though it wasn’t
It was put down by FPL as a Kane goal immediately
No mention of tbc or review

The **** hit the fan after a while though thanks to sky
Stupid sky
