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.

    Best def not for Soton up to 5.5m to bring in? They all seem quite uninspiring.

    Monreal (Arsenal poor at the moment)
    Otamendi (risk of Pep madness)
    Jones
    Trippier (at risk from Aurier?)
    Jagielka (good fixtures after next week)
    Someone else?

      Ramsey did okay today. But that's for the first time this season. He was rubbish against Stoke and Liverpool. He needs to keep playing well and against stronger sides, be more disciplined defensively.

    Would like to cheer everyone by sharing my worst fpl decision of all time. Didn't like my team much this week so had a bash at free chip

    I took out Kane erikson Davies and replaced with Cedric Sanchez (c) and lacazette. Added to that at 11.29 I swapped Cedric in for kolasinac. 20 points, 3 to play. My original team. Add 35.

    What was I thinking.

    Elliott / Foster
    Hegazi / Kola / Danilo / Bertrand / 4.0
    Alli / Mikhi / Ramsey / Tadic / Loftus-Cheek
    Lukaku / Kane / JRod

    Thinking Lukaku + Tadic to Aguero + Shaqiri. Thoughts?
