Dugout Discussion – Man United vs Leicester City

The today’s proceedings culminate at Old Trafford now as Manchester United welcome Leicester City in the 5.30pm kick-off.

Jose Mourinho’s side are heavily favoured after serving up back-to-back 4-0 wins over West Ham United and Swansea City.

Three goals in his first two league outings for the Red Devils means that Romelu Lukaku is the top captaincy pick for the third Gameweek running.

Over 1.7m FPL managers have handed the Belgian the armband, up against a Foxes side that have conceded at least two goals in five of their seven road trips since Craig Shakespeare took the helm.

Both Paul Pogba and Henrikh Mkhitaryan have also been subject to heavy investment – indeed, the pair have outscored Lukaku’s 19 points, with 23 and 21 respectively.

Meanwhile, Jamie Vardy will be looking to build on his two-goal haul at Arsenal in Gameweek 1 and end United’s run of consecutive shutouts.

Over 161,000 FPL managers sold the Foxes’ frontman after he failed to find the net at home to Brighton last weekend.

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

      I saw snide comments during the match that _Ederson_ was more attacking than KDB, which I felt overstated the case. I feel that if you compared average positions, it would show that KDB was at least a couple of feet farther forward than Ederson. I have no doubts on this point.

      When my subs get good points I'm not annoyed, sometimes happy as I want them in form if I'm rotating, why do people get annoyed? Yes you could have picked them but you didn't, doesn't mean you made the wrong call. If you fold a 2-7 offsuit in poker and 227 come up, you still made the right call to fold. Sub players playing well is a good thing even if you don't see the points.
