Had Henderson as my keeper, good 14 points. Don't expect him to keep many clean sheets, but should have a lot of saves.
Just as I was about to say the people putting Perisic in made a mistake... gets an assist. **** myself thinking James was getting an own goal but was given as a Kane goal, that's good.
I had 3 players playing today. 25 points from them with only Son letting me down by only scoring 2 points. Just my 3 LFC players to play tomorrow with Salah as captain, as half the country has no doubt.
he rarely gets hat tricks and scores less away. Triple captain is a bitch. I fully expected haaland to make a "statement" on his home debut and he completely flopped. 3 things on salah. home record epic. away record - more assists Hat tricks are quite rare. Look at this record. more 1 goals and assists than braces and hat tricks Record v man utd. 9 games in league. 7 goals 2 assists. Pretty good. Til you see that in 2 games last season it was 5 goals and 2 assists. Really this is about what utd turn up THIS SEASON. Last season utd were hapless. Maguire can easily be torn apart by salah but I'd want to see LFC v palace and see what level we are really at before thinking we'd repeat last season compared to say 2 seasons ago. The year before last was it? Or 2019? remember when Utd had 3 injuries early and absolutely parked a bus and their fans sang ole at the wheel.
Who said anything about hattricks? Previous stats don't mean much. This is a specific situation where Man UTD are in free fall, they just lost 4-0 to Brentford, and needed an own goal to score against Brighton. If they conceded 4 to brenftord they can conceded more to Liverpool, home or away. I haven't decided on triple captain yet, but it might be a decent punt.
you want the max return off triple captain? salah: play 90mins - highly likely - 2 points goals by midfielder - likely but could be just 1 - 5 points per goal assists - likely again. he gets a good amount - 3 points. Clean sheet by midfielder - seems likely right now given utd form but it was ****e v fulam -1 point Pen missed - 2, not very likely but he takes the pens so swings and roundabouts. Bonus points - 1-3 for best player. if we scores and assists this is coming. - 3 points. Cards- very unlikely but not impossible. my base for salah is 3 to 8 points. If he gets a hat trick then i'd guess its perfect triple captain but an honest goal and assist salah performance with MOTM is just as good. I think Z was right, save it for double match week as salah is likely to perform in both games and you are trebling up assured points? I wasted it on haaland as i expect pens and hom to make a big splash statement at home for first time. Rookie error by me.
With how terrible Man Utd are at the moment, it's highly possible Salah could get goals and assists. He got a goal and assist away at Fulham when Liverpool were palying awful. Man Utd are the worst team around at the moment, comically bad at the back. If Salah has a blinder tonight, many people will captain him. Think of how many people would captain Haaland against Bournemouth? Man Utd may improve at some point in the season, this is a chance to catch them while they're this awful. 4-0 to Bournemouth lol.
I almost subbed Nunez in for this game too. Only reason I didn't is because I'd have had to have taken a 4pts penalty
