The Dugout Discussion – Leicester City vs Manchester United

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

          Because the only reason to transfer someone in is if you're sure they'll score 4 goals(!)

          That said, bad move Kane could easily score vs pool waste of a transfer

        Lukaku is in my transfer list for GW 26, teams have had trouble scoring against Boro lately, so won't get him just yet despite his 4 goals and incoming price hike.

      Mourinho has really not done much with this Utd team. They should have put 6 or 7 past Leicester. Instead they were walking around after 60 minutes.

        The way those last 5 minutes were played out is why it's important that you load up on teams with something to play for in dgw37. You could get whole games played like that come May.

            This. Killed me off last season, was around 280 overall and dropped to 828 in the end cause I loaded up on double gameweek players that didnt neccesarily have much to play for- most players didn't play twice anyway and were outscored by single game weekers that had something to play for
