After Gabriel Jesus downed Swansea with a double at the Etihad, we make our way to the King Power as Leicester City entertain Manchester United in the final fixture of Gameweek 24.

Despite back-to-back blanks, Zlatan Ibrahimovic was once again the most captained player for this round of matches – he was handed the armband by 20.5% of Fantasy Premier League managers.

The likes of Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan could emerge as differentials against a defence that’s conceded at least twice in five of their last six home matches.

With a blank Gameweek 26 and potential blank in Gameweek 28, though, Jose Mourinho’s men are far from our short-term plans right now.

Leicester’s unconvincing form at both ends of the pitch bodes well for the Red Devils – with a single goal scored in the last six Gameweeks, those holding the likes of David de Gea and Antonio Valencia will be optimistic of a clean sheet.

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

      1 goal isnt enough for a captain.

        9 years, 2 months ago

        1 goal plus BAPS is in my opinion

      HELP PLEASE

      Current strikers

      Ibrahimovic, Sanchez, Costa

      Do I take any of these out for Gabriel Jesus - if so which one? Or stick with these three up top?

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

        Sanchez?

      2. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Oh Brendan

        Go and have a beer quick

        1. Under my Cucurella
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          I'm playing on Sun Dream Team - Sanchez counts as a striker.

          La Roja... are you suggesting I should stick? If I do switch one for Jesus I'll free up a hell of a lot of money elsewhere, I could change Bellerin for Walker and Herrera for Pogba and still have nearly 2m in the bank.

      3. Cojiro
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        No. He blanks in 2 weeks.

      4. Conk
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Sanchez to jesus sounds very doable

        9 years, 2 months ago

        Sanchez > Jesus

        You'll be the real Jesus if you pull that off.

        1. Business Cat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Jesus Navas?

      6. Ginkapo FPL
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        What game are you playing with Sanchez as a striker?

        I would lose Sanchez to be honest, saves cash presumably.

        1. Under my Cucurella
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          I'm playing Sun Dream Team, they count Sanchez as a striker.

          If I switch Sanchez to Jesus I'll save £7.4m

          I'm just not certain if Jesus will maintain this form or not and Sanchez has been a regular point scorer

          1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Jesus look VERY REAL today. But Sanchez is the top player in FPL. I would get Lukaku for fixtures and the blank. Probably for Ibra more than Sanchez.

          No chance, Vardy, Slimani, Mahrez will all go when they go down. That'll be a big rebuild job.

      • Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Mata could have squared it to Ibra. Selfish gnome.
