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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    1. Kew Pee Arr
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Mata - loads of midfield options, but really only Aguero up front.

  11. Your Mum's Athletic
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    we look better with RVP off

    1. Ole Gunnar Kush

  12. Messi & fabregas
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    1. Grumpy Camel
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      are the crosses working?

  13. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Utd only scored 2 goals vs Swansea/Sunderland/Burnley. Shocking returns.

  14. The Sarjeant
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    What a joke. Why play it back go the keeper!

  15. CarelessGenius©
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    can Valencia not cross a ball?

    1. Messi & fabregas
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      unbelievable! he cant dripple how can he cross!

  16. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Can Valencia not see those defenders stood right in front of him when he tries to cross..

    1. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      yes, he just doesn't know how to beat them

      1. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Over and over again...I can do that and for a lot less money.

  17. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    I already wanna do Mata & Dzeko to Sterling & Adebayor 🙁

  18. Zep
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 7 months ago

    Incidentally, he has 3pts... 😉

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

    2. nedfoo
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Technically a conversion gets 2 and a penalty kick gets 3

  19. HUMZAH96
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Anyone else think United will get a late winner?

      1. cravencottage

      4. Rasping Drive
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        I am afraid the days of intense United pressure in the last 10 mins disappeared when SAF stepped down

      5. HUMZAH96
          11 years, 7 months ago

      8. denial
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Valencia is pure dog shite. Cannot cross the ball.

      9. super zlatan
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        United aren't going to score, are they?

      10. Mighty
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Took a hit that involved putting Dummett in. Jeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!!

        1. MCH
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          That was a bad move no matter what happened.

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

            Why would you not pay 0.5 million more for Colo who has security of starts and is good for BAPS ?!

      11. Dilzy
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Is the international break the perfect time for a wildcard?

        1. Kew Pee Arr
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          Yes

      12. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Valencia is hilarious to watch! 😆

      13. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Valencia should consider retirement. Dreadful today.

        1. CarelessGenius©
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 7 months ago

          ....and everything's going through him on the right.....i wouldn't pass it to him.

          1. Royal5
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 7 months ago

            It's almost surreal that they keep feeding him.

      14. MJ6987
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        There's gonna be a glut of wildcards on here this week. Always is first Inty Break.

      15. The Finnisher
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Anderson has been a game changer.

      16. Fantasy Gold
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 7 months ago

        Rooney last minute winner. Guaranteed.
