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.

    Just to confirm, FPL can't give Kane the goal at this stage can they?

    Kane is going into overdrive trying to claim it 😆 He really wants to pull one back while Salah is missing

      What’s he saying Viper? In interviews or on twitter or where?

        He put on Spurs official channel that's he's delighted with his goal, and it definitely hit him

          send an email to fpl, they will take his word for it

      all the foolish talk about Mou surely wanting to avoid defeat and park the bus. Didn't occur to you that Pep and City are equally motivated to win it at Etihad?

        Hardly foolish. He did want to park the bus. They're just not good enough. Do agree with the latter point.

      How they didnt unlock Henderson and Lovren midweek is baffling me.

        Legit goal denied, Sterling pen denied with the initial Salah run for the goal being offside but not called. Could have been 2-2

      Sterling screws up two Silva assists in as many minutes 😡

        He's better than you.

        Neil Custis, The Suns Manchester football correspondant picked Bailly in his team of the season.
        Unbelievable.

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

          Really? Hahaha

            He had Ashley Young at left back.
            Biased much?

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

          Only Davies, Salah, and Kane will be in the team of the year, other than City players I mean

          1. dark91
            • 10 Years

            DDG?

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

              Hmm maybe, but think Ederson will take it.
              More likely Pope gets in.

            2. Gnu
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              8 years, 2 months ago

              Yeah, DdG & you'd probably be looking at a centre half as well.
              Vertonghem maybe even Azpi.
              Otamendi probably the Citeh pick in that position.

        No anticipation, he relies too much on his athleticism and that might be diminished after his knee injury

      Sterling goal there would've been perfect. Scoring three in half an hour. Would've been the perfect message to Liverpool. And now another Sterling miss!

      Aguero and Jesus put both of those in every day of the week

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

        Perhaps the perfect message to Liverpool would've been to turn up against them 🙂

          Don't worry about it Berbs 🙂

        TBH that's a crap attempt. How hard can it be for a simple left foot from that range.

        United centre defence in a perilous position, both defensively and for security of starts. Wouldn't own any of them

      • tm245
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        United's players still jogging around, slowed by their malaise and their team's tactics. A conservative manager and a bunch of mercenaries are no match for this City squad.

          Sad part is that this is United’s strongest team playing against a City team without their two best players.
