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

    2. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years

      Add Kane to that mix

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I would say Defoe should be one of the front 3

    4. EDEN THE MAN
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      That's the front three im hoping to get.

    5. FPL Physio
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I have costa, Luk and defoe and they are doing the business!

    6. Ridcully
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I prefer Kane Lukaku Costa.

    Fellaini ...c'mmon destroy that clean sheet

  3. Whats the Huth
    • 10 Years

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years

      Jesus

    2. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

  4. The Man Pastore
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    PVA/Lallana/Alli --> Cahill/Siggy/Antonio for -4pts, Yay or Nay ?

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

      Only the first two transfers - Alli is still in great form

      1. The Man Pastore
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        if only i could...

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

          Lally to Siggy for sure

  5. JustPark
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Mata was looking poor. His touches, positioning when it was vital were poor. I'm actually glad he's off.

  6. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Really need a Leicester goal, Valencia 11 pointer for my 2 closest ML rivals...

  7. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Man Utd of old would have put 6 past this Leicester team. Play so slowly.

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Martial should have been on as soon as it went 0-3. Won't get much better chances to improve GD.

  8. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Ibra playing in midfield.

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

      He is still finding great goal chances

  9. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …

      I can imagine at least at two different situations. 😉

  11. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Which is the more essential to own?

    A) Costa
    B) Hazard

    ?

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Costa for me

    2. dhamphiir
      • 10 Years

    3. faver

    4. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years

    5. Mr. Blonde
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Neither are essential imo

    6. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Hazard was barely doing anything before yesterday.

      GW26 is bad for most of the players you want as they don't have a game.

      1. Chenku╰☆╮
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        And siggy has Chelsea away in 26

  13. Weilong7
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    kane face pool next while ibra face watford...
    however how come ibra is the one being removed instead of kane?

    due to the gw26 blank?
    i have both and i am thinking of changing kane to costa or lkk

      Use your initiative.

  15. ihateramsey2

    does the KEEP FAITH IN YOUR WORLD-CLASS PLAYERS rule apply to aguero?

    1. MTPockets
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Been dropped mate.

      • EDEN THE MAN
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        If he's not playing then their's nothing to have faith in.

        How can he prove himself if Pep won't play him.

    2. cjw176
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Is it worth doing Ibra/T.Davies to Jesus/Siggy?

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

        Jesus blanks in 26 whilst Ibra has Watford, so that'd be a waste.

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

          ibra blanks 26..

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

            think you mean w25... when jesus has bournemouth

            1. cjw176
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              Do you reckon its worth it for 1 Week?

        Pickford Stanlisas Brunt Daniels

        1 FT, 0.1 ITB

        A) Alli to Siggy
        B) Save FT
        C) Kane & Stanlisas to Siggy & Jesus -4

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

          I'm thinking about A myself, although I think Alli could score against them. Probably B.

        2. Marquis-Cha-Cha
          • 10 Years

          Good team.

          B but C is tempting.

        2. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          He should have dived for cover

      • Davidinho
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        No.5 in the world overall bench boosted for a total of 4 points.

          What a waste of a chip, he bench boost for a dare or something?

        2. Les Bleus
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Sometimes I wonder how in the world these players get so high up the rankings. He has Carrick ffs

          1. The Enlightener
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Enough of luck factor in game for all kinds of injustices!

        3. Stokelona
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          And he still got 97! Gonna be nearly impossible to catch this casual

        4. Chris_H
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          tbf he has a great team & captained Lukaku. Better than many of us!

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

            ...so many bad players in there...Rondon, Milner, Mirallas, Carrick!?

            Massive waste of money in Kosc

            Yet has 1500 points...don't get it

        1. Sweetboi
          • 10 Years

          Rank these strikers at the moment.

          A)Lukaku
          B)Jesus
          C)Ibra
          D)Costa

          1. Les Bleus
            • 14 Years

            Switch Ibra with Costa and that's the rankings for me.

          Ahh Aguero(C) again 2pts plus Rondon last 8 GWs...lost a lot of points.
