Dugout Discussion – Stoke vs Man United

3,022 Comments
Share

Saturday’s events conclude at the bet365 as Manchester United bid to reclaim the Premier League top spot with a victory at Stoke City.

Jose Mourinho’s side are awash with major Fantasy talent as Romelu Lukuku heads into the match as the top captain pick for a fourth successive Gameweek.

Over 179,000 (37%) back the Belgian with the armband who is under pressure to deliver after goals from the next three most popular picks – Harry Kane, Alexandre Lacazette and Alvaro Morata – earlier in the day.

Paul Pogba also boasts a swell of support. Owned by 1.8 million (37.5%), he wears the armband for over 203,000 managers this evening.

Meanwhile, Henrikh Mkhitaryan goes into the game as the most signed midfielder ahead of Gameweek 4, having claimed another 236,000 owners.

With Ander Herrera recalled to the Man Utd starting XI, it could be that Pogba is shifted up behind Lukaku this evening, with Mkhitaryan starting wide on the right.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Thoughts on your team today mate...

      Is it a case of bullying the small clubs or do you think they may have turned the corner and some fans have overreacted?

      Kane captain and KdB would be 35 points to start, but a WC can not be judged on the next single game.

      But for a laugh I am sure someone will add up the points his GW3 team would get this week

      At the moment I've gone Firm, Morata and Kane up front.

      I did have Salah, in pre WC team but can't be asked with him, Firm is cheaper too.
