Fantasy managers have just one match to entertain us this evening as United play their final home game of what has been a tumultuous first campaign of the post-Ferguson era. Ryan Giggs’ brief tenure as interim-manager of the Red Devils has already served up an impressive hammering of Norwich before Sunderland quickly burst the bubble of optimism last weekend:

Giggs makes as many as eight alterations from the side that lost to the Black Cats, with the Welshman joinging the likes of Nemanja Vidic, Juan Mata and Robin Van Persie on the bench. Once again, the hosts are without Wayne Rooney, who has failed to recover from the illness and/or groin problem that saw him miss the Black Cats clash.

Steve Bruce makes five changes for visitors Hull – with their top-flight survival now secured, the Tigers manager’s teamsheet clearly has one eye on the upcoming FA Cup Final clash against Arsenal.

Our Twitter feed carries all the news from tonight’s team sheets, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom remains open to collect your real-time reactions to this evening’s events.

    I have worked out how to pick the Man Utd team.

    DDG - check
    Carrick - check

    Now for the magic. Work out who is the most unlikely player to play in each position and that is who will play.

    From a utd fans perspective, the only thing that has annoyed me about tonight's line up is that it's not televised in the uk. Very frustrating seeing vidic, rio and Evra all playing last few games when they will be departing in the summer. Out of the starting 11 I want all to remain next year with plenty of more game time next year at te expense of dead wood young, nani, cleverly, Anderson, rio, Evra...

              I can't imagine a hardman like Van Gaal keeping pretenders like Young and Valencia around. Evra is well past his sell-by date as is Rio. Vida already confirmed off and Giggs likely retiring. Cleverley linked with Everton and Nani with Juventus so I could see them all leaving. Of them all I wouldn't be surprised if Cleverley stayed but he would play a bit part.

                The issue is going to be getting the players to accept contracts at other clubs. Young would be mad to move to be fair, 130k/pw- no club will be willing to pay over 60 for him. Just hoping for a good World Cup out of nani, get a bit of interest in him

          Januzaj is good. Welbeck is a good squad player but can't see too many minutes when the new manager comes in. Evans is a walking physio equipment show room.

          I hope more youngsters come through but recent history says hardly any will become regulars at Manu.

        They like to think they are different, like when they were going to stand by their new manager.

        Good man Jonty...United have kept hold of the "youth" tag business since the class of 92...that's 22 years ago. They are no more a youth club than anybody else.

    I'm glad it's over now , I had jones / Mata / Rooney all in for hits , it was supposed to be Epic - it's nothing but an unmitigated disaster ( Rooney > Chester ) . So far a return of 3 pts for those players in a dgw , I wish I was a casual , I wish the World Cup would start , I can't wait for those Gk spreadsheets even Daniel asking " when will FPL " reopen sounds like sweet harmony ,
    Put Simply this has been a massive fail for not only me but most on here , I know know how Romeo felt - the pain , the anguish , the hurt turning to anger , hatred and scold .
