Sunday treats us to four Premier League matches before the second international break of the season is thrust upon us.

First up, we make our way to Old Trafford as United welcome struggling Stoke City.

With a single goal in the last four rounds of fixtures, Zlatan Ibrahimovic ended as runner-up in captain poll with just under 22% of the votes csat.

The big Swede warmed up for this one by netting the Europa League winner against Zorya on Thursday night, though another failure to deliver is likely to spark significant sales over the next fortnight.

Ibra was sold by more Fantasy Premier League managers than any forward last week, in spite of today’s plum fixture.

Marcus Rashford, meanwhile, has been subject to significant transfers in after netting in three of the last four league fixtures.

Up against a Potters defence that shipped 15 goals in their first six, the duo look the men most likely as Jose Mourinho seeks to build on the back of last week’s 4-1 home win over champions Leicester City.

Both sides make no changes from their Gameweek 6 starting XIs this lunchtime, with Wayne Rooney once again warming the Red Devils’ bench.

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

    • ★Kuntheman★
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      That City lineup is worryingly similar to something Pellegrini would play...

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        You mean the season they won the title?

        1. ★Kuntheman★
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          "worryingly"

    • sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Starting to get scared as an Ibra capper.

    • bojack
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Had planned to keep Ibra for Liverpool but don't particularly want to lose .2 - .3 on him.

    • Jay_

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

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

            time to sell for sure.

          Wow didn't realise utd game was early game. And no ibra goal yet. ML loaded with ibra (C) and guy just ahead tripled him.

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

            On 1pt

          2. Fred54
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            In my main ML everyone sold Ibra last GW, infact despute leading the ML I was last to sell Ibra for this week. All Aguero V Sanchez for us, except some wierdo who TCed Lukaku.

        7. Scotty B
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Ibrahimovic off?

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

            Probably

        8. jam sandwich
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          valencia yellow is the only blight on this game... maybe he will get an assist?

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

          Son playing striker

        10. southernpacific
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Ibra not close to goal, always assisting the assister. Come on

          1. Eden Azzzar
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            Someone needs to score for that to happen.....

        11. Giovanni Giorgio
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          On comes Rooney to save the day...........

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

            Unfortunately he'll probably score the winner

        12. camarozz
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          No jannsen. Your joking right.

        13. Exeter Gently
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          This is the first time that Stoke haven’t conceded a first half goal against Man Utd at Old Trafford in the Premier League. (OPTA)

        14. Jay_
            9 years, 6 months ago

            Mata Lingard off
            Rooney Martial on

          • Worzel Gummidge
              9 years, 6 months ago

              Antonio to Son is on the cards for me. Sorry Walcott but you are no Sanchez.

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

                I think i'm going wally to double up.

              2. Coaly
                • 13 Years
                9 years, 6 months ago

                It's Walcott or Son for me, probably depending on how they do today

                Arsenal have better fixtures

                Both in form

                Son maybe more goal involvement?

                Arsenal likely to score more goals ...
