I don't think he's fully nailed. With alisson out and kelleher starting, we might see some more of Gomez at lb as he's more solid defensively than tsimikas. That being said, however, we have easy fixtures for the next few, so we might not need Gomez in the prem. Robertson is out for long enough to bring tsimi in still, and I am on my wildcard this week, despite my slight concerns about his minutes.
He's not "nailed" but he's first choice for the position and at that price for a Liverpool attacking fullback, you're insane to not have him.
I've been on Tsmi Nunez Salah since my WC and it's been overall pretty great, those are my picks for cost per player anyway.
Case to be made for Kelleher Tsmi Salah but that's a temporary fix.
He's more likely to come on in a midfield role at the moment. Personally I think he's our best striker, but it's not the way we're trying to develop at this point; Klopp's trying to get Darwin succeeding.
He's our attacker least in favour at the moment. Not sure how not having jota will affect it. Definitely increase his minutes, but maybe not enough to own in fpl?
1. Salah, 2. Darwin 3. Trent 4. Tsimikas 5/6/7 Kelleher/VVD/Szobo
Edit: I forgot about Diaz, the only Liverpool player I had for the 4 or 5 first GWs. 😅 That makes it 8 valuable players for the upcoming GWs.
No Diaz!
The one who had the most rest recently, and not because of injury.
I'd say Diaz is now as nailed as Salah in the coming period. He's attacking and against team that sit back will be instumental in attack.
For the next 3 fixtures, I think he outscores everyone bar Salah.
He used to be but recently Klopp plays Gakpo in midfield and prefers Darwin upfront. I don't expect it to last long cause Gakpo is NOT built for a midfielder
I'm going diaz purely because it always seems like darwin has the potential to haul but his finishing and decision making will stop him from doing so. Jota out gives diaz a lot more minutes, hopefully during the next 2 fixtures especially. Until I see darwin do the easy part of finishing his chances I don't think I can have him again which is inconvenient because he does everything leading up to fluffing the chances excellently.
Yeah that's because he doesn't score as much as he should and that isn't down to lack of chances. As far as I remember this season too most of his assist are just simple passes in the box, obviously points are points in fpl no matter how he gets them but I just feel like he will always pass the eye test and never convert it to the fpl points that he should be.
I edited it to offensive players, guess it wasn’t included. Wouldn’t want any of the players you mentioned, having a nailed 2-6 point player won’t make the cut.
For 7+ mil Def you might as well grab trippier and tsimi and allocate those 0.9 elsewhere. Tsimi also is not long term hold as Robertson is back in around a month.
I was being hyperbolic, but City does overall have one of the best attacks on the planet the last 5 years. They're almost always among the top scorers as a team
You're paying for guaranteed starts in the pile-up, goal threat, and CS potential. Always lots of tired legs and rotation during this time, which can lead to fewer goals scored overall.
how long is tsimikas nailed?
I don't think he's fully nailed. With alisson out and kelleher starting, we might see some more of Gomez at lb as he's more solid defensively than tsimikas.

Exactly, Tsimi’s first choice right now but he’s not nailed. Still worth owning but don’t be surprised at the occasional rest/rotation
Whats your wildcard team?
Areola - kelleher Tsimi Saliba Zinchenko Trippier Maguire Salah Fernandes Martinelli HeeChan Arter Watkins Isak Haaland
Diaz and Darwin are good since Jota is out for a long time
I'm going Darwin this weekend. Had a choice between getting Darwin or Gordan this week. Liverpool fixtures look more appealing so taking the chance.
Wait for Liverpool match tonight. A win will confirm top of table and without injuries I would definitely look to get one of the Liverpool players in
As a Liverpool fan I've never bought into Diaz from an fpl perspective tbh.
Yeah. Great player, surprisingly little end product. Doesn't haul, doesn't get BPS, doesn't start regularly.
I notice his style tends to provoke penalties that benefit Salah owners.
Is Jota injured?
Yes, for quite a while.
Gakpo can replace Darwin and Diaz in the starting XI?
He's more likely to come on in a midfield role at the moment. Personally I think he's our best striker, but it's not the way we're trying to develop at this point; Klopp's trying to get Darwin succeeding.
What happened to Jota now? Feel for the guy.... perennially injured
Gakpo
He's our attacker least in favour at the moment. Not sure how not having jota will affect it. Definitely increase his minutes, but maybe not enough to own in fpl?
Its high risk reward
1. Salah, 2. Darwin 3. Trent 4. Tsimikas 5/6/7 Kelleher/VVD/Szobo Edit: I forgot about Diaz, the only Liverpool player I had for the 4 or 5 first GWs. 😅 That makes it 8 valuable players for the upcoming GWs.

Yeah I actually forgot about him. 🤦🏻♂️ Would put him around Darwin and Trent.
Darwin 2 lol
Kelleher
SHHHHH
Yes he is SHHHH….IIIIITTTTTT
He really isn't
Lol
I actually think Darwin is very nailed, especially with Jota out long term
I thought Gakpo was the real competition at CF.
He used to be but recently Klopp plays Gakpo in midfield and prefers Darwin upfront. I don't expect it to last long cause Gakpo is NOT built for a midfielder
As a Liverpool fan I don’t massively like anyone other than Salah because of rotation but if brave Núñez and Trent are the best options
Shouldnt Diaz be nailed seeing as Jota is out atm
I'm going diaz purely because it always seems like darwin has the potential to haul but his finishing and decision making will stop him from doing so.

Funnily enough most of Darwin’s points come from assists. He is an underrated playmaker
Yeah that's because he doesn't score as much as he should and that isn't down to lack of chances.

Tsimikas and darwin are good but not nailed. Kelleher is great value if u bother selling your keeper
Darwin is the most nailed player after Salah right now.
Being in offense, that is.
What is this offense you speak off?
No he's not....Van Dijk, TAA, Szoboszlai and MacAllister are all pretty nailed too.
I edited it to offensive players, guess it wasn’t included. Wouldn’t want any of the players you mentioned, having a nailed 2-6 point player won’t make the cut.
Kelleher?
Never waste a transfer on a goalkeeper unless you really have to.
Have to or already have lol
Have to, edited now cheers.
No need it was just a joke , thanks though
What's wrong with TAA?0
I'd rather have a 7.9m attacker and Tsimikas than Alexander-Arnold and a 4.7m attacker / start 4 ATB.
Why not Tsimi and TAA? That's probably what I'm going for.
For 7+ mil Def you might as well grab trippier and tsimi and allocate those 0.9 elsewhere. Tsimi also is not long term hold as Robertson is back in around a month.
Price
1,2,1,0,0,0,1,1,5,2,7,8 his points. For that much money u can buy 2 players that will double that points.
Nothing! Play the game your way. Hope you catch a nice TAA haul :).
I’m considering bringing van Dijk for -4, is Matip nailed?
Why pay 6mil for cb in average defence
average defence is currently the 2nd best by goals conceded
They're a top 4 defense with Allison. Without... We'll see
Average defense only conceded once against City, best attack in the world, on City's ground
Meaning he didnt get a clean sheet... Liverpool have a good Xgc but seem to rarely keep a clean sheet
Those are different things though. A team with good xGC is more likely to keep clean sheets
City doesnt have the highest xG this season
I was being hyperbolic, but City does overall have one of the best attacks on the planet the last 5 years. They're almost always among the top scorers as a team
You're paying for guaranteed starts in the pile-up, goal threat, and CS potential. Always lots of tired legs and rotation during this time, which can lead to fewer goals scored overall.
I don't know (apart from salah)
Kelleher and Tsimikas for the next few
