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.

        I'm doing Costa to Zlatan tonight after WBA game. Bought him at 10.6. He will likely drop 0.2 so I can buy him back at 10.8 if I want. Besides Zlatan is going to rise 0.1 tonight and very likely another 0.1 before next deadline. Will have gained 0.1 out of him.

        Details not important but my point is I won't be losing money by buying him back. More importantly, I can play Zlatan instead of Anichebe next GW!!

            Cedric turned out to be the worst punt ever. Thought I was being clever but the jokes on me

        2. Styles_X

          Same here. Bought Costa at 10.8 so will only be profiting

          Add long add he doesn't get sent off in next 30 mins, many people will buy him now. Yellow prove rose potentially with Costa flagged & Kane form

          Even if ibra didn't score today a lot of us had the Kane to ibra transfer planned before this match due to utd fixtures!

        Hopefully Kane gets a hatrick tomorrow and shakes things up. I'm doing Kane > Zlatan tonight and hope that happens still.

        I might do Costa to Zlatan, then Kane to Costa next week.

        1. liiusions
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          That's my thinking, not sure it's worth the waste of a FT though

          My thinking too

          yep looks good - until Kane gets 3 tomorrow 🙂

        5. FFSbet.com

          Kane to Aguero after:)

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Probably not worth it.

          I thought about it but I can't afford Ibrah with a Costa sale, never mind affording Costa the potential loss to get Costa back in. It's only one game, you never know what your bench player will score and Kane could draw a blank away at Southampton. You'll be losing money and using up a free transfer that you may want to use elsewhere.

        yes,i own zlatan over costa

        Every time i ask myself how fans can pay decent money to got watch a team coached by Tony Pullis.
        This type of football is just so atrocious

      19. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Looks like Kane will be staying in my team for a bit longer. Costa -> Ibra it is, only losing 0.1 at current prices.

        Is Ibrahimovic missing the next game? How many yellow cards is he on?

        Are people shipping Costa for one week or just benching? Dunno who to ditch for Ibra, Kane or Costa

        Lots of managers will struggle to do a straight swap from Costa to Ibra we could be seen another large round of hits coming up

        Cedric + Costa --> Friend or Middlesborough + Ibrahimovic for FT?
        A. Yes
        B. No

        Bought Costa for 10.6 and Cedric will be rotated on next 3 games
