Dugout Discussion – Man United vs Southampton

3,761 Comments
Share

Gameweek 21 continues under the lights of Old Trafford as Manchester United host Southampton in the evening kick-off.

For Fantasy managers, the focus is certainly on the home side, though arguably they are fading fast as a source of Fantasy talent.

David De Gea – the top owned goalkeeper (43.5%) – has produced just a single clean sheet in his last seven Gameweeks, while Romelu Lukaku’s decline as a Fantasy asset has continued at pace having claimed just two goals in his previous eight Gameweeks.

Even Paul Pogba has disappointed of late, blanking in his two appearances since returning from injury and recording just a single touch in the penalty area in the process. We will look for more from him tonight.

Instead it is Jesse Lingard who heads into this match as an unlikely source of form and points. Deployed in a No 10 role for United, he has produced five goals and two assists in his last seven Gameweeks and was the second most signed asset ahead of today’s deadline.

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

    Jon Champion must be on the vino. Getting Rashford mixed up with Martial(who's not even on the pitch) was bad enough but Pogba and Hoedt is a big stretch.

        I think there will be a lot of reverse transfers now to bring him in for the DGW in the hope that his illness is only a sniffle. I doubt that there will be enough sales for him to drop.
