Gameweek 3 gets underway with a lunchtime encounter between Burnley and troubled United. Having lost their first two matches, the Clarets are desperate to get points on the board and will certainly be buoyed by the current form of today’s opponents, as Louis van Gaal’s side stumble from one poor result to another.

With Angel di Maria poised to make his debut for the visitors, though, Fantasy owners of United’s attackers have a renewed sense of optimism for the Turf Moor meet. Captain Poll favourite Wayne Rooney, Juan Mata and Robin van Persie are all more than capable of delivering in emphatic fashion and could be set to benefit from the Argentine’s arrival.

Following this one, we have five matches to savour at 3pm before Everton host Chelsea in the evening kick-off at Goodison.

    Early kick-off captain curse looks likely to strike again.

      I think he'd of blanked no matter what time they played.

    But why isn't dzeko starting

    1. bring_on _the_fantasy
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      ummmm why you think?? Aguero and Jovitec are better, Dzeko has been rubbish??

      1. El_Matador
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Better? He wasn't involved much v Liverpool, but did play well against Newcastle. 'Aguero and Jovitec are the form picks' would be more accurate.

        1. bring_on _the_fantasy
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          yes a better player, better team player and a better player in general, Dzeko loves to shin the goals in

          1. El_Matador
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 7 months ago

            Not sure I understand what your point is? Are you now saying Dzeko is better than Aguero or Jovetic?

            1. bring_on _the_fantasy
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 7 months ago

              how am i saying Dzeko is better when anytime he scores its usually a lucky shot off the shin

              1. El_Matador
                • 14 Years
                11 years, 7 months ago

                It wasn't clear what you meant by saying 'yes A better player' as in your previous comment you'd cited TWO 'better' players.

                Obviously you just don't rate Dzeko despite being a central figure to Man City success last year, fair enough.

    What a corner from Anderson!!

  12. Mr_Partridge
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Rooney should retire and become a bin man

    Marney 3rd sub 😎

    Got it right this week...

    1. The92nd
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Sorry to bother you but just noticed my score for week 1 is wrong in your dead team challenge, its listed as 55 but i got 77,

      Krul2
      Jones 4, Debuchy 5, Lovren2
      Fab 11, Mata 2, Ramsey 10, Sterling 13, Siggy 13
      Rooney (c) 14, Giroud 1

      It had previously been right after week 1 but its wrong now in the week by week section.

      I don't know was if I penalised for something or is it just a mistake on your part.

      Sorry to annoy you about it, I appreciate how much work keeping track of all of it is.

      Person below me (the casual) seems to have my 77 actually

  14. Heydudes13

      I agree with this

      United are shit

    4. - DC -
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Not bothered if he scores now here at all.

      If I captained him I'd be expecting more than a goal and 3 baps against Burnley.

      -8 every time

      1. No Arsene Around
        • 13 Years

    1. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      That would be perfect

  28. RabMac
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Think most United players will be dropping in price over international break unless they do something before final whistle.
