A stalemate at Turf Moor leads us into five afternoon kick-offs with Old Trafford undoubtedly the focus of our attention.

Manchester United host Huddersfield Town with the opportunity to close the gap at the top, as Alexis Sanchez is handed his home debut.

Signed by 56,000 ahead of today’s deadline, the Chilean is captained by 85,000 of his 271,000 owners for the meeting with the Terriers.

The big team news is that both Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial are dropped from Jose Mourinho’s starting line-up. Owned by 911,000 and 297,000 respectively, they were the two most signed United assets ahead of Gameweek 26. Juan Mata is recalled to the XI, while Scott McTominay gets a start.

Elsewhere Callum Wilson goes into his home meeting with Stoke City as the second most signed player having picked up 224,000 new owners. He boasts four goals and two assists from his last six Gameweeks.

Meanwhile, Leicester City – without Riyad Mahrez – face Swansea City at the King Power Stadium and field a very attacking line-up. Claude Puel hands Fousseni Diabaté a Premier League debut, while Kelechi Iheanacho earns a first start since Gameweek 8.

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

    Benched Wilson for Shaqiri last GW.

    Benched Shaqiri for Wilson this GW. FML. Now I remember why I had Mbemba and DCL.

    Hello lads!

    Didn't watch the City game. Can I get a quick summary in terms of FPL?

    1. Maddi Son
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling miss of the season.

      1. Fresh_From_Desh
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Aguero woeful

        1. ★Kuntheman★
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          That's annoying, I capped him

      2. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Heard something like that. That bad?

        1. Fresh_From_Desh
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          He got into some great positions and I'm screaming pull the trigger but he lays it off to someone else instead.

          The Kun of old would have hit the roof of the net

          1. ★Kuntheman★
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Ugh. I would've been very frustrated watching that, maybe a good thing that I didn't wake up

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling missed the easiest goal of all time

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I need to see this thing, people like to exaggerate with misses but I have a feeling this was genuinely bad

    3. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Burnley compact with City getting half chances, Danilo screamer from a short corner. Sterling missed a sitter 😡 and Burnley equalised from a corner with 8 min left

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Kinda how I expected the game to go, tbh. I just didn't think we'd concede.

      • 9 Years

      Aguero, Sterling wasteful
      KDB off day
      Gundogan busy
      Bernardo very tidy game
      City defence avoid

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Good to see Bernardo is getting into the groove of things. Not happy with the rest.

  3. Sim Simma

    Bringing in Daniels didn't work out at all

  4. Ghost Gooner

    Where is Alexis? 😆

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years

      Dang ... regret not bringing him in

  12. Zilla

    JLingz was more threatening than Alexis till now

  13. Fresh_From_Desh

    1. The Bandit

      Guess you weren't around for Cahill snowgate week 🙂

      Or captained him

      1. Fresh_From_Desh
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Triple captained Andy Carroll, that was bad

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Amazing one so far.

  14. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone else think that Mourinho will sod off to PSG real soon?

    This dull football and benching record signings can't go on forever. How long can the fans resist?

    Someone like Tuchel or Enrique should be a perfect fit. Would mean entertaining football as well.

    1. Unfathomable Ruination
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      No

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm not sure why they'd want him tbh

      1. soup natsi
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        he's not bad in cl

      2. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Because they won't get Pep.

        Mourinho would mean CL success with the squad they have.

  15. That Was Easy!
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Mata playing times, Lingard making great runs, MU pouring on the pressure....Huddersfield 1-1 MU

    Stoke actually look pretty decent, Ndiaye is making a massive difference

        10 essentials as an owner of a FFS account

        You have to..

        1. LoL @(insert player name) owners / non- owners/cappers
        2. Always complain in hindsight about picks
        3. Blame others for YOUR choices
        4. Brag about points (humble, subtle and direct). Important to state your rank! If someone else brags, make sure to let them know
        5. Make up injury rumours to cause massive confusion
        6. Link to comments to prove you were right on earlier statements
        7. Complain about a bad gameweek
        8. Call someone a kissass for giving compliments to Mark
        9. Ignore the gravless
        10. Write the name of every person who scores, assists or gets a card, because clearly no one checks up on these things themselves

        Am I missing anything obvious?

        1. ★Kuntheman★
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          No that's just the essentials of being a d***head

            • 9 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Kind of the point.. Really hoped things would change at some point.

            • 9 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            I prefer being here during DZ... much calmer, and people actually get to discuss things properly. Way more useful

            • 9 Years

              Well there aren't exactly that many goals.

                • 9 Years

        7. Business Cat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          12. Repost "rate my team" during matches at the top of every comments page, ignoring the fact that no-one cares.

          13. Declare captain fail 5min into a game if your captain doesn't score

          14. Announce you're quitting FPL every week, then come back anyway.

          1. FC Hakkebøf
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            And the list goes on! You sir, are spot on! Wish there was a edit button. How could I forget those

              15. Refer to every one else's good/sensible play as "jammy"

              16. Label someone a casual if they get a good score and you don't 🙂

              1. FC Hakkebøf
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 1 month ago

                The casual one is by far one of the worst!

            Lol at This.
            Made a long poll a few years back about which comment was the worst on here.
            #3 is definitely the worst in my book.
            Not very bad, But I personally also tire from the “I bought X, so prepare for blanks”-comments.
