Dugout Discussion – West Brom vs Man United

Saturday’s action concludes at the Hawthorns where Manchester United drop in on an in-form West Bromwich Albion.

The Fantasy attention will be split here, with United’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic owned by 28.4% and captained by 13% up against a popular West Brom rearguard.

While Tony Pulis’ defence has kept just a single clean sheet in 13, the likes of Gareth McAuley and Craig Dawson offer a big threat from set-pieces, while Chris Brunt’s delivery could be vital.

Brunt provided a pair of assists in the midweek victory over Swansea City from left-back but is pushed forward into a midfield role this evening as Dawson returns from suspension, shifting Allan Nyom to left-back.

Significantly, almost 500,000 of McAuley’s 1.2 million owners keep him on the bench for this one – 360,000 of Foster’s 664,000 ownership do the same with the Baggies keeper.

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

          its worth it as long as Walcott starts the next few gw. i think Wenger will rotate a bit with Iwobi/Perez coming for Oxlade Walcott

    0.2 off as it stands but Ibra and Mane price rises could solve that slight problem

    Why people over thinking

    Costa --> Ibra (next gw)

    Kane --> Costa (gw19)

    Applies for those who got costa very late (say above 10.5 price). Thoughts ?
