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.

    Geez, and I'm here thinking that didn't look that bad in the replays. Best of luck and a speedy recovery to Lukaku.

      looked nothing tbh

        always the worst ones

    Which Hammers keeper is nailed? Hart or Adrian for DGW?

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I suspect each will play one game. Adrian prob get the WBA game.

    Popular player injured, irreverant comments from non-owners, moral high ground from owners. Twas ever thus.

    Injury to the back of the head is never good.

    Stright to the radiologist now.

    Get well soon Romelu.

      Spot on - people saying minimal contact but the forehead is a hell of a lot harder than the back of the head.

  5. Ask Yourself

    Rival did a random free hit and put in Rashford haul incoming

  6. Ian Davis
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Alli or Eriksen?

    2. Tcheco
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Alli's streak has just begun

    3. Oven Glover
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Eriksen. Less chance of a red card.

    4. doy
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Alli

    5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      difficult one, eriksen possibly

  7. Salarrivederci
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Jones now in the box on corners. Jones goal would make my day!

  8. Collie01
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Jones doesnt look to be moving very well for my liking

  9. SuperMane Returns
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Lindelol..

  10. TheCurseOfRaheem
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    In hindsight, that Morata gamble was foolish.

    1. MTPockets
      8 years, 6 months ago

      The result vindicates the idea. It's the Salah points that are painful.

  11. shirtless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Rom looked proper sparked out. Appeared to me the head of Hoedt went right in the back of Lukaku's head/top of neck area. Given oxygen too. Nasty.

  12. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Well this changes everything.

    Cout + Lukaku + Stephens -> Eriksen + Son + Benteke (lol) for -4?

    1. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Benteke?

  13. BONZ
    • 16 Years

    Lukaku not too bad - ithink it was more unexpected collision and will have a concussion. Dont think contact that bad too suggest long term.

    1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years

      Having suffered from post concussion syndrome I can tell you it's impossible to guess how long recovery takes 🙂

    DDG save #2

  15. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…

    Are everybody making their moves today itself or is it risky

    1. doy
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Just did my 2 trfs.

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Think its risky especially news about nailedness of dgw players important i think

        1. doy
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Alli and Arnie nailed on, unless they get injured in training (unlikely?).

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I'm waiting unless a player I want is rising/dropping tonight

  16. Vamos Los Celeste
    • 12 Years

    Get well soon Romelu

    C'mon Rashford

  17. Desperately Seeking Dusan

    I thought Mourinho forced players without head injuries to play on and then fired any doctor who overruled him?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      only if it's a woman

  18. eskild
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Looking for a Spurs defender, but worried about the amount of rotation, at RB and LB especially. Do you reckon one of the backs will start getting regular starts almost every game, or is it better to opt for Sanchez or Vertonghen?

    1. WE GO FOR IT
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Both should be nailed imo.

    2. Butcher
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Vert or Sanchez best bet. Just gotta decide which one.

    3. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Vert seems safest, or Lloris, if you want to go there.

    4. doy
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Verts most nailed on Df

  19. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Wow. Mark captained Morata for 4 points. 😯

    I thought every man and his dog had Salah captained (one way or another).

    1. PocketZola
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He didn't have hazard in his team...conspiracy....

      1. doy
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        He had Chelski cover in Alonso & Morata...

    2. doy
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      5-0 and Morata not involved in any of the goals...must be a dirty feeling for Morata owners.

    3. Johnny 8
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      It was the right decision, Chelsea scored 5, Liverpool 2. Just unlucky that Morata wasn't involved today.

  20. Salarrivederci
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Jones will play every match as long as Bailly/Smalling is out. Loldelöf and Rojo are useless defenders.

  21. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Mkhi flop

  22. tm245
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Mkhi, maybe that's why you've been on the bench.

  23. SuperMane Returns
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Mkhi cross fail.

    This is well worth a read about concussions, the movie not so good

      I've done a lot of research on Omalu and CTE, probably gonna pursue a career in this stuff. Think the movie did as well as it could to an audience with little knowledge of the topic.

    2. Ógie

      Thankfully they are finally starting to take such injury's seriously in the sporting world and give the necessary treatment in time.

      Players were expected to keep playing one time seeing only stars and doing some real damage to themselves.

  25. Hi I'm Jose
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Rahsford must have passed it to Lingard not Mikhi

  26. Maddi Son
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    I know it's only a game but man can FPL put you in a bad mood. :/

    I own Morata and Lukaku and thought a last minute change to Lukaku(c) was a good call. lol @ me

    1. Maddi Son
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Plus the guy in my head to head has Rashford (c) - If he scores /TeamDelete

  27. Sims
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Salah (c) 28 points

    Rest of the team:

    2, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1

    Pathetic. 4 left

  28. Dr Dream

    Mkhi > reserves again.

  29. Matamatics

    What's happened to Mkhitaryan?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      loss of confidence

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Jose made an example out of him.

      1. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        No he didn't. He just showed he's a nasty man and a bully. Did it at Chelsea with KDB and Madrid with Casillas. Mkhitaryan is a very good player.

    3. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Been poor pretty much ever since he arrived at the club. Even his early season returns were misleading in terms of his general performance.

      1. Matamatics
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        He was great at Dortmund. Maybe he is one of those players that the Premier League doesn't suit, there's a few players Utd have broke in recent years.. like Di Maria.

        1. sully29
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Yep, had high hopes for him when he arrived.

        2. fantasydan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Yeah I agree. Kagawa was the same. Disappointed they haven’t worked out.

  30. cescpistols1

    Is it stupid to bring in Aguero for Lukaku? Or who's the best replacement? Have Hazard, Salah and Sterling.
