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.

    Not rushing to get Alexis in

      All about timing with Alexis

    Sanchez looks really frustrated

    1. Salarrivederci
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Ofc he does. He moves to a team who parks the bus in 4/5 games. Loses to Spurs and can't score against Huddersfield 😀 Meanwhile Gunners signs Aubameyang and Özil gets a new contract. He is already regretting his move, and he is frustrated every time one of the other MUN players fail to pass the ball to him 🙂

      Have fun United and have fun in United, Sanchez 😀

    Depressing gameweek so far

    With Sterling captained and from what I heard I'm glad I didn't have a chance to see the City game 😀

      I had Aguero(c) and I'm fearing watching the highlights

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        You’ll not have any sight of Aguero on the highlights

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

          😆 yikes

        You won’t see him much

    I'm doing an amazing job of dodging points today, takes skill.

    1. Stockport Hatter
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      You're not alone

    2. Give The Todd Some Love
      • 14 Years

      Fairly sure no one has any points

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

    Even Pogba might get a run out in this game

    1. Rik Waller
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Has Jose got too much pride?

      1. tiger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Nah he'll just claim all the credit for outstanding management

  9. JohnnyMagrinho
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Well this is fantastic.

      I was dead set on bringing in JWP and Stephens before last GW but chose Mili and Alonso instead.

      Could have had: 2 goals, 2 assists
      Got: Nothing

      Chelsea and Palace are still yet to play but yeh, should've gone with my gut!

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

        Alonso will outscore both of those over the next few weeks. And maybe even this gameweek alone 😉

      2. Tazah
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Exact same as you my friend.... But who would ever bring in jwp

      3. HNI
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Jwp and stephens from a free falling soton side.. u wouldnt have done it ever lol

        1. JohnnyMagrinho
            8 years, 1 month ago

            I was very close to doing it. I had them in my team with the cursor hovering over the make transfers button.

            Southampton have good fixtures and they're better than what they've played.

            I don't just stick to the template and copy everyone elses dull insipid teams.

            Sorry if that's hard for you to believe mate but go for it if it helps you sleep better!

            I'm clearly lying arent I!

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

        I was thinking about bringing in Firmino but all of a sudden Mane has got my eye

        1. Sim Simma
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          He scored 2 vs Spurs last time out

        2. SADIO SANÉ
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          how come? think Salah, Mane, Firmino is too much from GW28?

        3. Dacra
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Mane has been garbage lately.

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

          I've been wanting to bring Mane in for a while as a differential. But he keeps disappointing and Firmino keeps delivering.

      5. Sims
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        poor stuff from sanchez

        constant moaning at not just the ref but also teammates for not playing the right passes. not good for team spirit

        1. LosBlancos
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          He is absolutely right about the passes though
          His teammates are dumb

          1. Sims
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            so u start whining? he's gives the ball away countless times too don't see him getting the same treatment

        2. el polako
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Maybe he realized that he joined wrong Manchester club.
          *running to hide*

          Chemistry not there yet

        4. Yozzer
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          What a waste of money.

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

        Was close to messing my team up to bring Sanchez in. Think I might just stick with Lingard as my only United attacker.

      7. HNI
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Stuart Atwell is such a poor ref. No wonder he has been demoted before. He needs to stick to football league one itself :/

        1. Stockport Hatter
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Why should offer clubs suffer? If you're not good enough for the premier league you're not good enough full stop. Much less "sky sports fans" lower down the English pyramid mate who also don't deserve inept referees.

          1. HNI
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            But they dont have money to afford good refs mate. I know Mou moans after every match on penos but today foul on mctominay was as much dangerous play as possible

      8. diesel001
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        De Gea
        Valencia Bailly Jones Shaw
        Herrera Matic
        Sanchez Pogba Martial
        Lukaku

        Do it Jose - let the horses in the front four run free and dominate

        1. Giovanni Giorgio
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          He should drop Lukaku and play Alexis upfront.

          1. Red Dagger ✪
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            ^Agreed.

          2. diesel001
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Nope. Lukaku scores goals. Ask Everton how they are doing replacing him? How is the lump that is Tosun?

            1. Giovanni Giorgio
              • 12 Years
              8 years, 1 month ago

              He's scored 4 in his last 18 games. Not very impressive don't you think?

        2. JJO
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          He wont do that
          He is lost 'manager'

        Low scoring fpl week it seems

          Early days

      10. el polako
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Hope that Mou will live up to his reputation and will keep Pogba on the bench to the end.

      11. Postman Ty
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        So this is going well.
        Last week brought in Allen to save some cash.
        Alternative options were JWP (2 assists), Shaqiri (1 goal), or a -4 for Walcott and Ayew (3 goals so far).

      12. Sims
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        anyone else with triple city including captain and no shaqiri or vardy?

        1. diesel001
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Damn

        6. CloudSky
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Im at -3 from 6 with my highest scorer being Sterling with 3 closely followed by Sanchezs 2x1.

          1. Stockport Hatter
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            How many hits did you take?

              • 9 Years
              8 years, 1 month ago

              3. Almost as many as the whole season together.

              1. Stockport Hatter
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 1 month ago

                Fair enough

        7. Yozzer
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Yes.

      13. aleksios
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Best replacement for Foster? Up to 4.5 mil.

        1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
          • 9 Years

          Keep,no blank.

        How is Wilson looking?

        1. Give The Todd Some Love
          • 14 Years

          Complete shite

          1. HonestBlatter
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Shite

      15. No Salah
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I’m happy that Utd can’t score!

        The idiot one left Pogba out!

      16. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Bring on Pogz then

      17. Gooner97
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Stephens > Alonso

        1. diesel001
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Points since GW1 suggest otherwise

      18. Digital-Real
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Any chance Martial gets minutes in this match?

        1. makaveli123
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Yes

        2. Business Cat

          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Please say yes...transferred him in for Mahrez this week!

      19. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Best whole team replacement?

      20. Robson-Canoe
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Sanchez needs to calm down, moaning like a child every time he doesn't get the ball even though he's the one who loses possession all the time.

      21. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        2nd half Lingard double, Foster pen save, Daniels goal.

      22. Tazah
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Mark's vardy transfer is killing jonty ever week

        1. Over Midwicket
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

        2. Konig Luther
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Mahrez even decide to miss training

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Not when Ward gets back from injury

          1. Over Midwicket
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Has been fit for a while according to Dyche?
