Dugout Discussion – Man United vs Southampton

Gameweek 21 continues under the lights of Old Trafford as Manchester United host Southampton in the evening kick-off.

For Fantasy managers, the focus is certainly on the home side, though arguably they are fading fast as a source of Fantasy talent.

David De Gea – the top owned goalkeeper (43.5%) – has produced just a single clean sheet in his last seven Gameweeks, while Romelu Lukaku’s decline as a Fantasy asset has continued at pace having claimed just two goals in his previous eight Gameweeks.

Even Paul Pogba has disappointed of late, blanking in his two appearances since returning from injury and recording just a single touch in the penalty area in the process. We will look for more from him tonight.

Instead it is Jesse Lingard who heads into this match as an unlikely source of form and points. Deployed in a No 10 role for United, he has produced five goals and two assists in his last seven Gameweeks and was the second most signed asset ahead of today’s deadline.

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

        Damn, he's been captaining him since GW8, that's the last time he made any transfers..

    Best move here?

    A DDG + Richarlson > Adrian + Son (-4)
    B DDG + Richarlson > Pope + Arnie (-4)
    C DDG + Richarlson > Courtios + Lanzini (-4)

    Other DGWs Kane & Masuaku

    Hazard & Richarlison out. Which of these should I buy?

    a) Eriksen & Son
    b) Alli & Son
    c) Eriksen & Arnie
    d) Alli & Arnie
    e) Son & Arnie

    Have Kane already. c-e will allow me to upgrade Tottenham mid to KdB after Dgw.

      D

  5. Nightf0x

    davinson or vert

  6. xtina
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Haz & Richarlison -> Alli & Arnie for a -4?

    Already have Son, Kane, Masuaku for DGW...

    Son tends to get taken off early anyway, so likely to get 70+mins each game?

      I'm of the opinion there's gonna be tears on Thursday. 2 teams play twice in two days and play each other. There'll be mass rests imo as they are both subject to the same pressure

  8. Ibralicious
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Hazard + Coutinho RLC ->

    Eriksen/Alli + Son + Arnie

    for -4.

    Yay or nay?

    would you play quaner (lei) over alonso (ars) or ota (WAT) ?

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      You did ask quaner over alonso or ota. Pmsl.

    Had hoped for Kane to drop last night but didnt. Dont think he wil drop tonight.

  11. El Lobito 10
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Will Christensen walk back into the starting 11 or is rotation with Cahill a threat?

    1. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I’m a chelsea fan and I personally think he’s one of our best defenders. I was surprised to see him benched today, unfair I thought but might be more because of the close games. Remember Christensen isn’t use to playing 90 mins week in week out.

      I personally think in Jan Christensen will move back into the centre and the rotation will occur between Cahill and Rudiger

      1. El Lobito 10
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers bud. My guess is he was still not 100% and he is keeping him for Arsenal. Apparently Cahill was a bit crap.

  12. AYLD28

    Think about this. If Kane is injured a certain Son of mine could get moved up front and he’s a very underrated finisher

    1. Jet5605
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      It's captain Son for me all the way.

    2. tisza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      happened before

    3. mrwinner
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Because of the Kane potential injury many will hold off with the TC so I’d say now yeah

  21. Playing_the_Numbers

    6 years, 4 months ago

    Planning to have 6 DGW players, 1 FT available, 3.9 ITB. Gross has good fixtures in 6 out of the next 7 games, but Richarlison is in better form. What do I do?

    A) Richarlison > Alli
    B) Richarlison > Erriksen
    C) Richarlison > Son
    D) Gross > Alli
    E) Gross > Erriksen
    F) Gross > Son

    Adrian
    Ogbonna/ Davies/ Otamendi/ Jones
    Sterling/ Salah/ Arnie/ Richarlison* / Gross*
    Kane

    Subs: De Gea/ Quaner / Firmino / Gomes

    1. Differentiator
      • 8 Years

      F

    2. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Richarlison is not in better form haha

  22. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Just keep selling Hazard and he will prove all of you wrong with a hattrick against Arsenal.

    1. El Lobito 10
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      OK.

    2. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      He won’t get a hatrick but personally I am not selling.

      Selling Pogba and Richarlison for Arnie and Son they are bigger problems for me! Hazard will come good

  23. Whats the Huth
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Was going to do
    Morata to quaner
    Zaha to son
    RLC to Arnie.
    For minus 4

    However. Quaner appears to be injured.
    Therefore. How does this one sound?

    Fab to Adrian
    Zaha to Son.

    For free. Leaves me with 0ITB

    1. AYLD28
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Goalkeepers do well in a DGW and I think Adrian is poised to do well so yes

  24. El_Shaw
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Christensen ---> Vertonghen for a -4?

  25. DrunkPhilosophy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Taking out Hazard and Richarlson..

    A) Son + Alli

    B) Son + Arnie and invest elsewhere?

    1. FPL_nadez
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      exact same issue for me. Thinking B only because anri is on fire and has good fixtures + spurs's fixtures get tougher.

  26. Kanteisking
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    What’s the deal with Salah?

    1. soup natsi
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      what a guy innit

  27. soup natsi
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Quite set on Kane, Alli, Arnautovic in for Lukaku, Hazard, Gundogan for -4. Would you take another hit for Fabi > Adrian?

  28. frenchfries
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Pope
    Jones Christensen Ogbonna
    Hazard Salah Sterling Zaha
    Kane Morata DLC

    Pereira RLC Ward Duffy

    2FT, 0.1itb

    A) Hazard, Zaha, Christensen ->Alli, Arnie, Vertonghen
    B) Hazard, Zaha->Alli, Son

    A leaves 1.2itb

  29. Mackans
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Who is the best option under 4.6? (Already have Masuaku & Kenny)

    A Schindler (hud)
    B Dunk (bha)
    C Lascelles (new)
    D Other

    1. soup natsi
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      A fixtures look good

  30. RVP20

    Is this -8 ok?
    Elliot > Adrian
    Christensen > Vertonghen
    Richarlison > Arnautovic
    Hazard > Son
