Dugout Discussion – Stoke vs Man United

Saturday’s events conclude at the bet365 as Manchester United bid to reclaim the Premier League top spot with a victory at Stoke City.

Jose Mourinho’s side are awash with major Fantasy talent as Romelu Lukuku heads into the match as the top captain pick for a fourth successive Gameweek.

Over 179,000 (37%) back the Belgian with the armband who is under pressure to deliver after goals from the next three most popular picks – Harry Kane, Alexandre Lacazette and Alvaro Morata – earlier in the day.

Paul Pogba also boasts a swell of support. Owned by 1.8 million (37.5%), he wears the armband for over 203,000 managers this evening.

Meanwhile, Henrikh Mkhitaryan goes into the game as the most signed midfielder ahead of Gameweek 4, having claimed another 236,000 owners.

With Ander Herrera recalled to the Man Utd starting XI, it could be that Pogba is shifted up behind Lukaku this evening, with Mkhitaryan starting wide on the right.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Don't be fooled by Stoke today, Hughes always has them playing like it's a cup final everytime they face United then he goes back into his bitter shell.

    Recomendations for this team??

    Foster/Elliot
    Bavies/Jones/Cedric/Lowe/Mbemba
    Mane/Eriksen/Miki/TC/Chalobah
    Kane/Kaku/Chcia

    2FT 0.5ITB

    Mane has to go however what mix of moves will be best here? I'm even willing to take -4

        Mane the only problem. Would wait out CL games in case anything else comes up for others.

      Gross is suddenly the 5th highest scoring mid in the game xD

      Could Mason Holgate be the answer to all our 4.4M dreams? Now played 2 games in a row, think he's cover for the injured Coleman.

      0.5m itb and 2FT

      Stephans to Davies and
      a. Suttner to wimmer (4th defender)
      or
      b. Ritchie to choupo-moting (4th mid)
      or
      c. Carroll to 4.4m (5th mid)

    5. Z

      Mané, Salah, Pogba, Carroll, RLC
      Lukaku, Morata, Firmino
      2.8 ITB

      Mané to? Is Alli the best bet?

      Maybe bring in Kane too? But who for?

    6. Deulofail

      2.4m to 587k

      Anyone got any firminho, without mane in the side stats? The red card killed today's game, which was a shame. Could of been a thriller. Im just thinking take mane out there side, can they deliver. Will couthinho just slot in on the left, salah on the right. And its business as usual? Im a salah and firm owner. Thinking off dropping alonso and salah, to fund firm to kane. Thoughts?

      Pogba-Salah-Eriksen-RLC-T Carroll
      Lukaku-Jesus-Firmino

      0.4itb.

      Doing well (7k) atm but defence is looking shaky now. Stephens & Hegazi not nailed and Dummett injured. don't reallly fancy starting Mee 3 out of next 6 either.
      Naughton seems an obvious choice but add a Brighton defender and use the money to take Lukaku to Kane?

      So annoying cos everyone single lazy fpl has kante. Because it's early, everyone that had kante I'm my league has overtaken me. Someone had kante on the bench and shawcross on the pitch! I get 45 points with Davies lacazette (c) and I've moved up one!

      Have 2 free transfers, would you do Jesus and Stones to Morata and Trippier?

      1. Cheeseoid

        No. I don't think I wood

        no, stones nailed while kompany is out and trip is a rotation risk with Aurier, he was going to come on today if not for sisoko injury. Morata looks good, myself i have 2ft and looking to do Laca-Morata and trip to Davies. i need to check when rose is back but they way davies is playing its his place to lose.
