The Dugout Discussion – Burnley Vs Man United

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

    That might just be enough to push me into wildcarding. Because I want Balotelli, Sterling, Hazard, one of Aguero/Jovetic/Yaya + I want to sort my defence out. Cheers Mata.

      Why? Is blocking the ball with your arm not an offense anymore?

          He wasnt that close to it. Passed a couple of players first and he put his arms out to block it. Not like it hit his shoulder or anything.

      If i already have 3 Chelsea players i konw i get to keep em even if i get a 4th due to a transfer.

      But, and i pretty much know the answer, if i then want to transfer say JT to Cahill i am not allowed am i?
      I guess i then can transfer to any player but a Chelsea?
