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.

    Thing is I'm going to sell Ibra now (obviously) but he is going to absolutely make it rain on some team soon given the amount of shots he's had 🙁

      Its the money tied up in him that's the issue. Great stats but no FPL points still means horrible value.

  17. Gunner77-

  18. InSaneMan-e

    Guys, anyone know what happened to Mikhitaryan?
    I know he was injured before, but as far as I know he should have been back 2 weeks back...

    Rift with Mourinho?

    1. janowsc
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I still remember his hatty a couple of seasons ago.

      1. Pariße
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Exactly. Bought him as a one week punt then, and the guy scored a hattrick 😆 Everyone was so pissed at me then 🙂

  21. Moyeschester

  24. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
    10 years, 1 month ago

    I'd swap my Valencia cs for a stoke goal. Crouchy the boy to do it

    1. Whats the Huth
      10 years, 1 month ago

  25. jam sandwich

    1. El-Kloppico
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Stoke will score on 85min

      1. Whats the Huth
        10 years, 1 month ago

  26. TheTinman

  27. boc610
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Arnie has been shocking ,saw him give the ball away on so many ocassions

  28. Differentiator
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Could do with a Blind/Bailly/Smalling YC to push Valencia into the baps

  29. El-Kloppico
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Is it really a Rooney assist?
    He hardly touched the ball.

  30. KOLASINA(C)
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Who to get for Ibra? Already own Lukaku and Aguero.

    1. El-Kloppico
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Giroud.. after Intl break.

    2. southernpacific
      10 years, 1 month ago
