The day’s events end at the Etihad Stadium for an encounter which could decide the fate of the Premier League title.

Manchester City host rivals United requiring a victory and three points to seal the deal.

From a Fantasy perspective, this is a rather bizarre match-up, with modest Gameweek investment in City assets and little expected of our United players.

David Silva was the most popular City target heading into today’s deadline, claiming 74,000 new owners following three goals and three assists in his last four Gameweeks.

Meanwhile, Romelu Lukaku goes into this contest with four goals and two assists from his previous six Gameweek starts but having been sold by 146,000 ahead of today’s deadline, the fourth most sold overall. Some 81,000 of those managers swapped for Kane who produced just a single point today.

David De Gea is perhaps the key man for United. He is the third most owned player as part of 44.3% of squads, though he is kept in reserve by 335,000 of his owners today, making him the fourth most benched player in the Gameweek.

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

    He has made contact with the ball on one side first and Aguero stops it so his foot goes over the ball then. Was not intentional but should have been a penalty.

      agreed, was a great tackle

      Studs up. Doesnt matter if he gets only ball, the plyers or both, thats a disgraceful challenge and a red every day of the week.

        I have agreed that it was a foul, I only stated it didn’t look intentional.

          Whereas Fernandinho went in to hurt the player intentionally so is arguably worse.

      Why bother reading this? Look at his grav

        You should have bothered because you just look stupid now.

      Very much agree. Unfortunate his foot basically rolled on the ball and kept it high. But still a pen.

    Honestly, how do Man Utd get these ridiculous decisions in their favour so consistently?! 😆

      Ah now city are just as lucky to have XI on the field

      They don't get more than any other of the big teams IMO. Arsenal got a cheap pen against Stoke last week for example.

        Don't try reason and facts with the tinfoil hat brigade.

    Can't begin to imagine what Salah will do to this defence on Tuesday.

      If he plays!

      1. Rainer

          8 years, 2 months ago

          Hopefully!

    Kaku to start both games next week regardless of the cup? Sanchez more of a risk? Can't see Jose taking focus off 2nd regardless of the cup

    Thats a red from Young and Fernandinho IMO

    Sanchez is a little whinging walloper these days.

        You are slow, but right 😉

        1. BIGREDDOG

    Stonewall penalty on the replay. Didn't look that way at first, though, in all honesty

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Your lot doing the best impression of a Brendan Rodgers team.

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

        I think I'd be a lot more pissed if we hadn't essentially won already, but this is really bad

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      It looked like it at first to me

    3. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Cost DDG a penalty save

    4. HamezMace
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I thought it was on first look, and the replay obvious confirmed it. Really poor/dangerous from young

    Just don't get KDB wound up!

  12. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Atkinson deffo taken a bung

  13. Stoic
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Herrera is a brat

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

      He's a bit like Busquets IMO. Don't like either of them, but you want one of that type of player in your team IMO

  14. TheTinman
    • 10 Years

    100% a pen and a red card. But I don't care tbh.

  15. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    KDB in Pogba's shadow

  16. Monkey Hanger

    1. HamezMace
      • 11 Years

  19. Rainer
    • 9 Years

    Lukaku close

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

  21. Rik Waller
    • 8 Years

    Trademark Lukaku first touch

  22. dark91
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    I knew Atkinson and Webb would be connected in one way or another.
    Turns out both are born in the same year

  23. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    It has been said before.... but jeez Lukaku has a terrible first touch.

    1. HamezMace

      You saved me from posting this

  24. ★Kuntheman★

    This really smacks of our derby win a few years ago where all we did was stall out the inevitable

  25. Dacra
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Need 2 of Willian, Alonso, Monreal to not play to get Smalling off bench..

  26. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
    • 9 Years

    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    At least city have to play gw 34 doubles with purpose

    1. Going Home
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      No double?

  28. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Will Pogba play the next game after being caught scoring goals in the opposition box....or will Mourinho "rest him" for being naughty?

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

      Exactly

  29. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Lukaku has been horrendous

  30. Going Home
