Dugout Discussion – Man United vs Everton

Gameweek 5 concludes at Old Trafford as Manchester United’s Fantasy assets bid to end our weekend with a series of hauls.

Romelu Lukaku is undoubtedly the big draw. Still by far the top player, he remains part of 2.8 million squads and is backed by 1.4 million with the captaincy (30.1%).

However, having been the dominant captain all season, his Gameweek 5 support is at its lowest since the opening weekend of the season when he was backed by 28% of managers.

In addition, despite scoring six goals in six outings in all competitions, Lukaku’s ownership continues to slide.

The Belgian suffered a net loss of 72,000 owners ahead of Friday’s deadline and has so far been sold by another 38,000 managers before kicking a ball in Gameweek 5. Over 28,000 of those managers have made the move to Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero, with the Argentine’s hat-trick putting real pressure on Lukaku today. Fail to deliver returns and sales will surely pick up pace.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan also needs to produce.

The Armenian has been the major benefactor in FPL terms from Paul Pogba’s injury, gaining more than 321,000 new owners – second only to Spurs’ Ben Davies for Gameweek 5.

But following the 11-point tally from City’s David Silva in yesterday’s 6-0 win at Watford, Mkhitaryan owners will be keen to see their man produce a return without the influence of Pogba alongside him.

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

      Henry: "Lukaku has been waiting for that [Everton] game"

      Henry: "There was part of the crowd at Everton that didn't like him. He will want to show them what they are missing."

    0-1 Everton win with Rooney goal will be good even though I have Jones.

        Valencia alone is changing it. Congrats

    Anyone else always seem to go against their instinct? Said multiple times on here I'm going to captain Lukaku this week. At the last minute I bottled it and changed to Kane.

    This is gonna be painful watching. Miki goals best scenario for me personally.

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 11 Years

      Kane cpt v swans was a sensible move.

  16. Duffy Dunk

    Foster Elliot
    Alonso Davies Cedric Naughton Mbemba
    Alli Mkhitaryan DSilva Carroll King
    Kane Morata Firmino

    1 FT, 0.1 itb

    Tempted to get a MCI attacker:
    Morata+Alli -> Jesus+Salah for -4?

    1. Deulofail
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I say very no to that. And a normal no even for free.

    Time for Lukaku to bring in a consistent return and people still be disappointed with him wooo!

  18. CloudSky

    Foster, Elliot

    Cedric, Jones, Naughton, Simpson, Lowton

    Alli, Salah, Micky t, Atsu, Carroll

        • 13 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

  22. R.C.

    Mkhi 2 goals is all I ask for, and I'll be over 65 points

    1. Marcos Alonso is god
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Mkhi 7 goals all I need to be over 65
