Gameweek 6 begins at Old Trafford where the Wayne Rooney circus is in full swing.

The United skipper is dropped to the bench by Jose Mourinho, causing a big stir that dominates the pre-match build-up.

When the dust settles, we can see a total of four changes in the United line-up, as Daley Blind, Ander Herrera, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard are drafted in. Antony Martial and Luke Shaw miss out through injury, while Marouane Fellaini drops to the bench.

The big news for Fantasy managers is the continued emergence of Marcus Rashford, who is surely boosted by the decision to drop Rooney.

As for Leicester City, they are unchanged as Kasper Schmeichel remains sidelined amidst reports that he is now set to be absent for three weeks with his groin injury.

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

      Best way for getting rid of lamela?

      Thanks my friends

      1. Thomas Magnum
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

    • Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Lol Rashford nowhere near the baps!

      1. faver
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Why would he be?

        1. Numb
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Scored earlier

      2. El-Kloppico
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Just a free goal and some sprints.. cant understand all the crazy talks around

    • Duffo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Ibra brace incoming

      Scared seller here

      1. thepeen555
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Don't be scared - embrace what u done and think ur team is better cause of it

        You could have 2 players who play this weekend that get more points than he would even if he scores 1

        1. Duffo
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Positive outlook
          I shall try and adopt this approach instead of hiding behind the sofa

          1. thepeen555
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            Yeah it's how I see it and a lot don't u can get 2 quality other players with the money saved and do better - or at least 2 chances to do better in usually 2 different matches

    • Paganoi
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Hmmm. Was planning Tekkers > Deeney but thinking Rashford now since he seems to be nailing down a spot.

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Deeney hasn't even played yet!

        1. Patty
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          This!

      2. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Why are you planning on selling Benteke before he has even played?

        1. Numb
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          And that

    • Dušan Citizen

      For God sake, I woke up for Smalling goal. 🙁

      1. thepeen555
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        You woke up late cause including the break that was about 50 mins ago

        1. Dušan Citizen
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

            • 9 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

    • JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I hope Ibra blanks so it's cheaper for me to bring him in next GW.

    • GE
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      When I have Zlatan - 1) or 2) next GW?

      1) Defoe -> Rashford
      2) Defoe -> Deeney

    • twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Have I missed something, why were people chinning in Liverpool defenders?

      1. thepeen555
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Not sure - hull will score

      2. Fowler23
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Fixtures

      3. XabiAlonso
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Because they have a good chance of scoring lots of points over the next 6

      4. Ayew Holding Mee Cork
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Because Lovren scored 1 and then everyone on WC thinks he is the best defender in the world. 🙂

      5. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Decent run of fixtures

    • El Patron
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I transfered Glen Johnson in on the WC.

      Genious or Crap move?

          1. Danstoke82
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            Doesn't matter.

            Our no.1 keeper is out do its a choice between a 40 year old or derby's backup keeper and on top of that we cannot defend. There's no easy fixtures when it involves Stoke trust me

      3. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
