Dugout Discussion – Stoke vs Man United

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.

    Why does Rashford never ever pass? Seriously what is wrong with him? It's really pathetic.

    2. Oven Glover

      Not that bad on paper, though.

      1. Stats Don\'t Lie
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        This is what annoys me...

        1. Oven Glover
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 9 months ago

          Just one of those weeks. Could easily have paid off.

      Kane, Gross > Firmino, Silva

    Anyone know why hegazi came off early? Is his run coming to an end?

    1. VFORVANDETA
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      He's due.

    2. PlayPercentage
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Haven't seen the match yet, but that's how it seemed to me.

  4. PlayPercentage
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Replacement for Hegazi? He could be on the bench for the next few games.
    Don't know whether to do a sideways transfer to Gibbs/Evans/Dawson, or get a Watford defender into my squad.

  5. Keno
    • 10 Years

    Yoshida---> Another 5.0 defender, who? I have Jones, Alonso, Suttner, Cedric

    1. Tommyg
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Alonso or Jones.

      1. Keno
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        I have both

    2. BrutalLogiC
      • 8 Years

  6. Sharkytect

    I see hegazi didn't make it to 60 mins. Time to get rid?

    1. PlayPercentage

    1. Nascimento
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Naughton could get a hattrick yet

      1. NestorC
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        At least I didn't (C) Firm, but yeah, that could work out. Anyway I was expecting to be even at best but fpl always let me do with my expectations

    1. Nascimento
      • 8 Years

      • 7 Years

      They look clueless in attack.

  11. Royal5

    Boring

  12. money face bandwagon
    • 10 Years

    Kane eriksen alli too much spurs attack?

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years

      Yes

    2. VFORVANDETA
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Kane Erik is enough i think.

  13. Monkey Hanger
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Big Rom. Faster, quicker, and worth more than Rashford. If you don't believe me ask Lukaku.

    1. Nascimento
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      He's faster but I'm not convinced he's quicker.

  14. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 10 Years

    Let the horses run freely Mourinho because this is boring AF

  15. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 10 Years

    That was about as exciting as owning Jones gets.

  16. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Matic wont be taking many more

  17. diesel001
    • 7 Years

    Eriksen, Bavies and Kolasinac are such BAPS monsters. Glad I got them in my team. All about the BAPS!

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years

      "Look at me, look who i have in my team, gimme attention" lol

    2. Turbolag
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Eriksen didn't get BAPS?

      1. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Have you seen his baseline BPS? He is always with a chance to get BAPS - which is what makes him a BAPS monster.

    3. BrutalLogiC
      • 8 Years

      lol @ Erik, yea nice BP selection

  18. Shultan

  19. Make United Great Again
    • 11 Years

    Seems to be the pattern of our games. Slow first halfs...batter them in the second.

    1. Nascimento
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Nice to have a Stoke fan on board.

  20. Champions united

    Does anyone know how Hegazi and Stephens played today? Were either at fault for conceding goals?

    Trying to work out which one to get rid of.

  24. Del Monte

  28. SADIO SANÉ

    I've seen enough 😉

    Kane (c) every week except 9,10,12
    Morata (c) weeks 9,10,12 vs. WAT bou wba

    Midfield, something like - Eriksen - Salah/Coutinho - Pogba - Ramsey/Fab

    Any reason to go over 10m for any other player if not captaining?

  29. Royal5
    • 12 Years
