Premier League champions Manchester United close out Gameweek 30 at home to Fulham. With a seemingly routine opportunity to open a three-point gap over city rivals, the Dugout Discussion opens to witness the potential fantasy points feast.

The team news for the clash at Old Trafford is in. Here is how the two sides line-up…

Man Utd XI: De Gea, Evra, Ferdinand, Evans, Rafael, Carrick, Giggs, Valencia, Rooney, Young, Welbeck.

Fulham XI: Schwarzer, Kelly, JA Riise, Hangeland, Hughes, Diarra, Dempsey, Pogrebnyak, Duff, Frei, Dembele.

Sir Alex makes two changes from the eleven that battered Wolves last week, with Ryan Giggs and Ashley Young replacing Paul Scholes and Javier Hernandez respectively.

Three changes for the visitors with Aaron Hughes, Kerim Frei and Damian Duff coming in for Philippe Senderos, Andrew Johnson and Bryan Ruiz.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom is open and can be accessed right here.

    This is on the bbc website

    "Stoog in Edinburgh: "Man utd have only dropped 2 points in the 31st game of the premier league season over the last decade. Statistics clearly show Fulham have no chance tonight..."

    I have no idea if that's true but, given that tonight is only Manchester United's 30th game of the season, it's definitely bad news for Blackburn, their next opponents."

    Ok all, I'm ready to sell off at least part of my lame-ass Liverpool defenders. 0.5 in bank

    Skrtel 6.3 could turn into:

    A) Vermaelen (6.8) leaving no money - great short term fixtures
    B) BAE (6.3) - great fixtures over remainder, form not quite as great right now, break-even on money
    C) Cahill (5.3) - lesser fixtures, but cheaper and good form, lets me invest elsewhere

    Here's the squad prior to this move.

    Hart (Ruddy)
    JEvans, Caulker, Kelly, JoseEnrique, Skrtel
    Bale, Dempsey, Walcott, Siggy, Barfa
    RVP, Roo, Pog

    Thoughts?

          A mere suggestion after Yaya's goal. It's volatile, Pulis is ruthless and it wouldn't be the first time.
