Hull City and Manchester United conclude the day’s events with a top of the table clash at the KCOM stadium.

Against the odds, both teams go into the tea-time kick-off having won both their opening matches, with Tigers boss Mike Phelan working miracles with a threadbare squad.

Not surprisingly, both Hull and United are unchanged. Whilst that could be down to very limited options in Phelan’s case, Jose Mourinho chooses to keep his winning side intact, with Chris Smalling and Henrikh Mkhitaryan again named on the bench.

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

    Mata 😀

    1. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He's deep undercover for Chelsea.

  2. The Royal Robin
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Getting a bit worried about Zlatan (C) 😐

  3. Postman Ty
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Thank you mata, for completely stealing that ball off ibra as he swung

  4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Mata doesn't have ibra c

    1. faver
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      he have herrera at every week starter.

  5. KingNidge
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    I would give the dressing room a miss after this if i was Mata

  6. Fergietime
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Ibra owners that didnt captain him, would a ibra blank be better for your rank?

    1. Magic Man
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      yes

    2. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yep, I think so. FFF had him down as the most-captained player overall I think.

    3. owls on the up
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Nah I want as many points as possible for my ml rank, not really fussed about overall rank!

      Are you a lyrical gangster because I'm impressed. 🙂

      1. Fergietime
        • 10 Years

    1. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Think he will be now

    2. JIM BOB
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yep. Or Rooney. Or Mata.

  8. The Cloud Watcher
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Does Mourinho have a problem with Rashford?

    1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yes - he's not 30.

    2. devils advocate
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Nothing to suggest so on his facebook page.

  9. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    I wouldnt mind this finishing 0-0. Have Velencia and also Jakupovic coming on

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Makes sense

  10. twoplustwo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Ibra has been mince today

  11. Jernau M Gurgeh
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Hull defending like Tigers 🙂

  12. JIM BOB
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    If you had to keep ONE of these for the season, who would you keep?

    A.) Lamela
    B.) Redmond

    1. The Donald
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A by miles

    2. Iwantmorepointsthanks
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A)

    3. v12w12
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A

    4. Magic Man
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      lamela, better player and looks influential in the spurs side

  13. Gooner Kebab
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Vardy to Ibra owner 🙁

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Same here

    2. faver
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      meh. wont hurt that much. ibra ownership atm is too important. last week hurt you 100k positions or more...

    3. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'm with ya brother. Still backing my decision though 😉

    4. Clump
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Me too.... for a hit 🙂

    5. Jay_
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Vardy, Firmino, Lamela > Ibra, Barkley, Snodgrass on WC here

      • Pompel
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Kept Vardy - shipped Kane for Ibra 😎

      • kalmoffit
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        There's loads of us

      • The Tinkerman
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Same, not too worried. If C Kun comes in I'm happy. Ibra might be a way to get Sanchez in later though.

    6. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      So, who's shipping Ibra out tonight then?

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Me. Back to Vardy.

      2. Worzel Gummidge
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Knew I should have played Jaku instead of Pickford.

          1. Rainer
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            No way. Right call there for me. Hindsights a great thing.

        • andymck
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          It's a no from me.

      3. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Diomande the perfect Sanchez enabler ?

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Once they dont sign anyone else he is in my WC team.

          1. Pompel
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Allows a pretty nice midfield and defence. But becomes a problem if losing his spot

        2. faver
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          urd

          1. faver
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            yes

            1. Pompel
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              .. and a local Oslo boy, as well 🙂

      4. niloh1
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Should I do vvd to baines now or wait

        1. Podge
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Wait, possibly forever

        2. The Tinkerman
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Wait, but good move IMO.

      5. Viper
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Maloney always seems to do a decent job for whatever promoted club he joins..

      6. boc610
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        "hello my name is paul pogba and I'm addicted to pointless tricks..."

        1. Kante Be Bothered
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Kante >>> Pogba

      7. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Ibra having a shocker. I can hear Vardy laughing at us sellers.

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Fair play on Cazorla.

          1. Granville
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Cheers. It was the penalties that made it attractive. Could easily have gone Tadic but just fancied Arsenal to turn things around.

        2. twoplustwo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Not as bad as not having Ibra when he netted two on Friday though

        3. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Zlatan always looks poor no matter the outcome. When will people learn this?

          1. Granville
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Too true. He'll still score.

        4. The Tinkerman
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Even if he blanks he has 3 in 3. He was poor first game too, until his goal, could easily still poach a winner here too.

      8. twoplustwo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Who are we thinking rises the next two weeks?

        Going to at least build TV given my points start has been so bad.

        1. Kante Be Bothered
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Hazard most definitely

      9. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Ibra going off for Rashford?

        1. twoplustwo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Got to be Roonpig surely

          1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Or the shortest player.

      10. DV8R
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        So much for the "big 4"... Ibrah out

      11. MoeZe3bi
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Thinking of WCing to this:

        DDG-Jaku

        Stones-Valencia-Holgate-Amat-Evans

        Ozil-Barkley-Redmond-Fer-hojbjerg

        Ibra-Kun-Costa

        0.1 ITB

        What do you think?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Meh, you won't have 15 playing soon.

        2. The Cloud Watcher
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Holgate's game time will be limited when Coleman comes back.

          1. Defaid Daniel
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            why Valencia hard games next 6weeks

        3. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          that is quite terrible for a WC team

      12. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        How sweet would a Valencia assist to Zlatan goal be

        1. DV8R
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Other way round would produce more points

          1. Jafooli
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Actually this, ignore below 😛

        2. Jafooli
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          The best....

        3. Podge
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          pretty sweet

      13. Chucky
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Impossible to get 50 this week 🙁

        1. faver
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          kuuuuuun

        2. Kante Be Bothered
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Pretty easy imo

      14. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        1. Will Hazard rise tonight?

        2. Any idea how long Valdes is out for?

        1. Clump
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Probably not, unlikely.
          Estimated 3 weeks more unless setbacks.

      15. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Dont worry guys, Ibra has done absolutely nothing all game, that means he's about to score

        1. owls on the up
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          That does worry me as I got 25quid on him 1St gs and to score a brace

          1. noquarternt
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Wish I had that kind of money to burn!

      16. Worzel Gummidge
          9 years, 8 months ago

          The Hull bus is brilliant.

        • Defaid Daniel
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          morgan sliva Redmond>baines capoue sanchez -8?

        • Jay_
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Could be Ibra coming off
