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.

    Think I'm down to these 3 options this week so looking for opinions - reasoning would be great also if you feel like it...

    a) Migs & Skrtel -> Friedel & Verm (benching Bogdan this week)
    b) Skrtel & Shotton -> Verm & Kaboul
    c) Surman & Suarez -> Bale & Pog (benching Siggy this week)

    If a) or b) then I'd get Bale in GW33 (ditching Dempsey). If c) I'd most likely do Pog -> Cisse in GW33.

    Bogdan
    JEvans, Shotton, Skrtel
    Dempsey, Walcott, Valencia, Siggy
    RVP, Rooney, Suarez

    Migs, Enrique, Surman, Caulker

    Bank 2.5m, 2 free transfers

      I like A as I feel priority should be reducing Liverpool DF. They are not looking like a team that can keep a cs. A will give you a chance to keep Stoke DF (not sure about his rotation risk - he should start in a game which Pulis aims to attack.

    The team for GW 31 is:
    Krul
    Evans Vermaelen Skrtel
    Bale Valencia Siggy Dempsey
    Pog Rooney (VC) RvP (C)

    Have 1 FT and 3.1 in the bank. Was thinking Skrtel -> Baines?
    Anything else I should be looking at? Dempsey will become Walcott in 2 weeks, Pog probably Cisse.

                Why wouldn't he? In the past few games he looked really exhausted. Arsenal also play 3 games in 10 days. That's why I can see him being rested for the QPR game.

                  Urgh because he is Arsenals most important player and he has played plenty of '3 games in 10 days' this season..
                  It's also an important time of the season for us as we try to get away from Spurs.

            I'm truly tempted. But the Verminator looks immense at the moment. Can't think of a better defender to own than him.

      FPL-wise, he actually has had some decent attacking returns this season.

      In real life, I actually rate Walker as a better forward player, but until he starts picking some goals/assists up the crowd will be on Benoit's side.

      He does have excellent stats, H. You'd think if Spurs improve their finishing, he'd benefit more.

              Cahill is delivering excellent value whilst he starts. One of those intriguing Raylor-types, who isn't nailed-on to start. If you have a good bench, go for it. Don't expect him to start every week. 🙂

      I dont think you have a bad team, but out of that bunch I'd try to lose Skrtel, Reina, Prog and possibly McClean (in more or less that order).

      I'd consider Schwarzer/Bogdan/Friedel for Reina and Sagna/Gibbs/Cahill/BAE for Skrtel.

      Then look at how much you have left over and if its possible upgrade McClean to Walcott or Prog to Adebayor. But both are generally fine. Just dont like the Sunderland fixtures and doubling up on Fulham attackers.

          Well, lately, no.
          I got in Walcott this week, and he's already repaid with double digits. RVP is obviously a must-have, and I have had Vermaelen for a while and it's starting to pay off.
          For United - Evans is ridiculous value and Rooney, along with RVP, seems like the only consistent performer. Valencia is in the form of his life and his points are showing this also. At 7.5 (not sure what he is now) he is the best option near that price.
          Considering form and fixtures I am happy with them at the moment.

        He's not become a bad player by any means but I can't ignore the fact that Cisse is having a major negative impact on his fantasy returns.

      Am thinking of getting him in, and that possibility has crossed my mind: cs , peno and an assist plus 3 bps how much would that be worth- this could change our fpl life as we know it !

        No seriously if I was on a WC I would get Walcott. JOA bought out the stats last week of Walcott vs Demspey and I jokingly made fun of him.

        😳

        Most of us(me included) are keeping Dumpster for his hat trick vs Nor this gw. It could all go pear shape of course like the Swans game at home. I honestly think there won't be much init between walcott/dumpster this week even.

          Nooooo. Why bring Dump into it? NOR, CHE & WIG are all Dempsey-able, Tina. We all know how dangerous he could be. One good game & he sets the points straight.

          I was actually surprised to see Walcott's consistency too, first brought to our attention by Chris Glover. That was a sign - we should just listen to that guy you know. He clearly said the ones to look at for the latter half of the season - Walc, Barfa, Siggy, Vermaelen around gw26. Legend 😀

            That's what we thought about Bale too! But then he went from strength to strength and became a beast.

              bale 5 blanks in the last 6
              before that he was on 2 blanks in 8
              so whoever picked him late was badly hurt

                He got 2 assists, didn't he? Also got injured for one of the home games.

      He's quite expensive though isn't he? I think I'd almost prefer Song.
