Dugout Discussion – Hull City vs Man United

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.

    Baines missed pen + assist; Given saved pen + own goal. Well done FPL.

        Can the assist stand when it's not intentional? Baines never meant to set up given. Remove assist I say

          The player causing the opposition own goal (by cross, shot or whatever) is usually rewarded with an assist.
