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

    Ibra is a "out of nowhere" kinda guy.

    Frustrating to watch him for the majority of a match

      Mostly because Manu's play can be so ponderous.

      true, I am not buying a city player for rest of the season,all this rotation has ruined them. And I thought with Pep as manager , Aguero would get 30+ goals,the joke is on me.
