Jose Mourinho returns to the Premier League with a sun soaked Vitality Stadium providing the backdrop.

AFC Bournemouth host Mourinho and his Manchester United charges in today’s early kick-off, with Eddie Howe’s men attempting to follow Hull City’s lead and rip up the script.

Certainly today’s meeting will provide a stern test of Mourinho’s work over the summer – a tight pitch, a tight ground and a home side bristling with pace via Josh King, Callum Wilson and new signing Jordan Ibe.

But United have Zlatan Ibrahimovic; the Swede heads into the match having been handed the armband by 21% of Fantasy Premier League managers. It remains to be seen if he can keep pace with Sergio Aguero who was backed by 34% and rewarded them with a 9-point return in the day one win over Sunderland.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Is there no way of seeing the breakdown of points a player has scored like previous seasons? When you click on the information icon it just shows their total points and ICT index

      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Going to struggle to free up 1.5 for Vardy to Ibra

      WC?

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Don't WC for one player. Downgrade an 8.5m mid to lamela.

        1. Coaly
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Only 8.5 is Firmino, want to keep him

      Martial bossing the bonus;)

    • Whazza
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Howe given up, Ibe and Wilson off to be ready for next game

    • Ziro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I don't care about Zlatan price rises. When Kun gets injured, I'll shift to Zlatan at 12.0 Simples.

      • 10 Years

      Problem is you can't have Ibra and Martial in the same team. Not good for your health
