Sunday treats us to four matches, kicking off with a noon encounter at Vicarage Road between Watford and Man United.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic carries the armband hopes of many Fantasy managers heading into this one – the Swede narrowly topped this week’s Captain Poll off the back of four goals in as many matches.

Etienne Capoue has the chance to prove himself worthy of a fourth midfielder slot today. Having scored against Southampton, Chelsea and West Ham, the Frenchman is set for a favourable run of matches that could bring in the points.

Similarly, Odion Ighalo, Troy Deeney and Jose Holebas are also under the spotlight after all three got amongst the goals in last week’s comeback win over the Hammers.

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

    If you're Mourinho, how will you fit Rashford into the starting 11?

    assuming resignation is out of question

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Drop Rooney

    2. adased
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      seems to be a better keeper than ddg

  2. Fowler23
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Rooney still arguing. Hope he doesn't get a red

  3. Clump
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone know if Man u kept the receipt when they bought Pogba? 🙂

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Average player

    2. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Worth every penny of the £87,000 they paid for him in 2009

    3. devils advocate
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I'd be spending more time looking for Rooney's.

  4. Ziro
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Capoue still on top provisionally

    1. Ziro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Zuniga won't reach on winning goal bps.

  5. More Tragic

    Mourinho is no longer the special one. He's now the cancerous one.

    He kills clubs from within.

    1. For Fuchs Sake
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      after 6 games?

    2. SW6
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Man Utd were rotten before he got there

    3. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      The spending one.

    4. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Nothing like a bit of hyperbole after a loss!

  6. Pack The Ripper
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Foster
    Valencia, Baines, Collins
    Sanchez, Capoue, Sterling, Antonio
    Aguero, Costa, Lukaku

    1m itb and will get rid of Collins next. Look ok?

  7. Jamie_GAWA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Any reason to wait on Ibra>Aguero?

    Now or later in the week?

    1. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Neither will go up/down in price. You can wait.
      Just keep an eye on their price changes.

      1. Jamie_GAWA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I suppose, may as well do now I guess

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      why wait?

    3. Gaffa914
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Now now now

    4. ☻ Jon Snow ☻
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Because of the outcome of the United fixture, Aguero will almost certainly rise before next GW

    5. Will's Faceless
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Injury is always a risk

  8. FPL Puppy
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    People will sell Ibra to fund Aguero now.
    Wonder how that will turn out.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      erm, pretty good i would of thought, united being non attacking and all

    2. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Get Rashford in instead - 5m cheaper

    3. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Very well, I imagine, considering one plays for a team full of goals and the other plays for a team that doesn't know it's best lineup.

    4. fab

      Tears. Rivers of tears

  9. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Mourinho will be out for blood after 2 losses they said...

  10. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    If this worth a -8 guys?

    Hazard + Ozil + Ibra + Pieters out

    Sanchez + 4.5 + Aguero + Holebas in

    Hazard Ozil Firmino Capoue Antonio
    Ibra Lukaku Benteke

    Would leave me enough money in the bank to do Benteke to Costa after next week if I want

    1. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      No; you can wait a week on Pieters move. Just take a -4

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers!

  11. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Cmon FPL Towers remove that Ibra assist.

  12. Goodricke
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    2 subs already made to bring back Kun. Valencia and DeGea in defence as well as Stones. May be wildcard time...

  13. Krul Runnings
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Zuniga for 3 bonus?

    Goal and assist after coming on

    Thougts on having KDB over Agüero for City cover?

    1. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      risky

    2. S.Agueroooooo
      • 10 Years

      Nope try again 🙂

  15. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    I have a feeling that it's gonna happen with United what happened with Mou's Chelsea.

    I am really considering Ibra out.

    1. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Win the league?

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Try be funny somewhere else.

        1. Mull
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Mou's Chelsea did exceptionally well at the start though.

      2. devils advocate

        Gotta love the City's fans comments after a United loss.

        So much spare room in their trophy cabinet for funny jokes. 🙂

        1. Dušan Citizen
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Woah, someone is nervous here.

          I didn't say anything bad, just my opinion. Go heal your frustartion in a gym or something like that.

          1. devils advocate
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Friendly banter champ. 😉

            And I don't go to the gym but I'll give your missus a buzz. Cool? 🙂

            1. Dušan Citizen
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 7 months ago

              I would like to give it to her if I had one too.

              1. devils advocate
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 7 months ago

                We can tag team and talk football at the same time. If you don't have a missus I'll see if mines up for it. 😉

                1. Dušan Citizen
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 12 Years
                  9 years, 7 months ago

                  This is becoming weird. 😆

    2. bojack
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      If Kane hits form it's Ibra > Kane for me unless United start playing well soon.

  16. CostaCoffee
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Deeney is such a loveable guy

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      What a geezer, I'm sure Watford fans adore him.

  17. S.Agueroooooo
    • 10 Years

    Template defence?

    1. Backup Dancer
      • 10 Years

    2. andymck

      Nobody knows

    3. Unliklinho

      9 years, 7 months ago

      Yes thankyou

  18. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Capoue on 3 BPS

    Zlatan on 0

  19. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    a) Ibra Snod Capoue
    b) Ibra Bolasie 4.4
    c) Lukaku Sterling Capoue

    1. Ridgewell's scores
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      C by far

  20. Dr Robotnik
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Are we expecting Rashford to start week in week out now? Could be a steal at 6.8m

  21. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Another week, another wasted Capue haul.

  22. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    How is Capoue still on 3 BAPs?

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      He scored a goal ? . Scoring a goal usually gets you baps ?

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Taken off early, Zuniga goal and assist, Deeney goal.

    2. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Why wouldn't he be? He scored and played most of the game.

    3. FPL Puppy
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Scored a goal and played about 80 min.

    4. Nabs Kebabs
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Because Zuniga is classed as a def in fpl he gets 12 bps for scoring where as Capoue gets 18..

  23. Ridgewell's scores
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Which combo would you wanna have in a 4-3-3?

    A) Ibra, Lallana, Chadli
    B) Slimani, Snodgrass, Sanchez
    C) Rashford, Sanchez, Lallana

    1. bulbuf
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      D) none of the above

      1. Ridgewell's scores
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        cheers

  24. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    There going to be a mass Ibra sell-a-thon now?

    1. Ridgewell's scores
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      He got an assist, casuals will keep him.

  25. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    I'll take that thank you

    Capoue goal

  26. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years

    Deeney striptease. Lol. Good on him for that fan recognition.

  27. Back on the horse
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Watford have a good run of fixtures. brilliant result. Hornets (?) sting the Red Devils

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      They won't play Man Utd every week though.

  28. Kane Train
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    How did Ibra get given that assist???? HOW

  29. devils advocate
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Deeney going and giving his shirt to a disabled fan was the best thing I've seen in this match as a United supporter.
