The Dugout Discussion – Leicester City vs Manchester United

5 February 2017 3096 comments

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

    Hi guys, need your help, first time I've had 2 FT (£0 ITB) and no major pressing issues! Current team is:

    Heaton | Pickford
    Alonso | Coleman | McAuley | Chambers | Kingsley
    Sanchez | Alli | Eriksen | Phillips | Capoue
    Ibra | Lukaku | Defoe

    Currently thinking:

    A) Pickford > Jakupovic
    B) Alli/Eriksen > Siggy
    C) Capoue > Carroll

    Any other suggestions? Thanks!

      I wouldn't do a -4 now. Nor would I get rid of any Spurs. Poch has proven disregard of the FA Cup if he wants to stay in the running for the league and I'd feel a bit silly getting rid of a Spurs player then having them throw the game v Fulham. I'd wait for the Cup match, to be honest for a Spurs sale. So of your options I'd reluctantly go for the first one.
