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.

      It was their forst defeat of the season against a team that have a very promising manager. There will be a lot of teams that struggle to beat Watford. Saints are only an upper mid table team so they will come unstuck occasionally. If they lose the couple then yes i would agree.

    Should I WC to this? -> https://imgur.com/a/rmmjJ

    This is my current team -> https://imgur.com/k16XCpg

    In the WC team, I'd play a 4-3-3 formation and rotate Gross, Atsu and Carroll. I would also rotate between Daniels and Dunk

        I watched the full Spurs game today.

        Davinson Sanchez is a beast mode player for that back 3 he really knits the whole thing together.

        On the left side surely Davies is first choice now. He killed the end of my season last year as I wouldn't touch him in case he lost his place. Not a good enough reason to avoid maybe he should be bought and worry about that if it happens.

            There is no better feeling that making a transfer to get a player in that you want and you are sure you want them.

            He's at an awkward price for me right now and I've only 1ft and no structure to support a defender over 5m without a hit.
