Paul Pogba (£7.8m) returns to the Manchester United line-up as the Red Devils travel to Cardiff City on Saturday evening.

The Frenchman has been absent for the last three Premier League Gameweeks under Jose Mourinho, but new manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has shown faith in him.

There are also starts for Marcus Rashford (£7.0m) and Anthony Martial (£7.3m) with Jesse Lingard (£6.7m) joining them in thr forward line.

Meanwhile, Solskjaer has gone with Luke Shaw (£4.9m), Phil Jones (£5.1m), Victor Lindelöf (£4.8m) and Ashley Young (£5.7m) for his back-four.

Neil Warnock made no surprise selections for Cardiff as Callum Paterson (£5.3m) continues to lead the line, with Victor Camarasa (£4.6m) operating just behind him, Josh Murphy (£4.8m) and Junior Hoilett (£5.0m) on the wings.

Cardiff City XI: Etheridge; Cunningham, Bamba, Morrison, Ecuele Manga; Arter, Gunnarsson; Murphy, Camarasa, Hoilett; Paterson.

Manchester United XI: De Gea; Shaw, Jones, Lindelof, Young; Herrera, Matic, Pogba; Martial, Rashford, Lingard.

    Will WC Next week (Wednesday). I need 2 punts this gw for my 2 FTs. 0.3m itb

    Fabianski-4.0m
    Robertson-Kola-Doherty-AWB-Schindler
    Salah-Sterling-FAnderson-Richarlison-4.2m
    Auba-Jimenez-Lacazette

    What would you do for those 2 FTs? WC next week.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Probably look at the GW19 fixtures and choose a couple of players based on that GW alone.

      1. HVT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        This is unbelievable advice, when do the fixtures come out?

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

          Fixtures are already out

        2. Debauchy
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

          Epic's always there for the masses

          1. Rainer
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 3 months ago

            But not the misses.

            1. Epic Fail
              • 15 Years
              7 years, 3 months ago

              I never miss.

              1. Debauchy
                • 13 Years
                7 years, 3 months ago

                Miss Salah a little ?w

                1. Rainer
                  • 9 Years
                  7 years, 3 months ago

                  😮

            2. Debauchy
              • 13 Years
              7 years, 3 months ago

              (Lol)

      2. semiconductor
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        That's right. I'm looking for opinions for next week. Anything you would do yourself?

    2. Effe
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Lacazette to Rashford could be one of your moves

      1. semiconductor
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        That's one I am considering but not sure about when Lukaku returns though

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 3 months ago

          2 weeks compassionate leave apparently.

          1. semiconductor
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 3 months ago

            He is not playing next game?

  2. Murder On Zidanesfloor
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Fraser + Jiminez > Snoddy + Rashford? -4

    1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Omggg

      1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        ?

  3. ☈☾

    David Munday First Captain Fail

  4. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    On a WC, considering downgrading Anderson to Snoddy as ai can then get Rash instead of Jimenez. Which is the best use of the additions saved cash:

    A) Auba -> Kane
    B) Kamara -> Ings (to rotate with Snoddy/first bench to cover rotation)

  5. Smurf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    I’m currently on a red arrow and have both Salah and Auba. God damn Sane (c) fail 🙁

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      I sold Salah after GW16 because if you own him but dont captain him he slowly sinks you.

    2. Patch
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      On a greed arrow after captaining Sane and no Aub

  6. Ginkapo FPL
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    So a 4-2-4 formation? This is gonna get annihalated against some teams, at least it will be enjoyable though.

  7. ALegendJ
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Can't watch the game. Hows Manutd lined up? Is Lingard playing RW and Pogba at CAM?

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Kinda and no.

      1. ALegendJ
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks.. Kinda 😀

  8. Samwise
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Rumours Fergie is coming back next season... surely not

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Did you hear that from Ben Dinnery?

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      He'll definitely be there next season.

    3. HVT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      When did he leave?

    4. tisza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      never.
      Fergie health issues and Woodward likes to be top dog.

    5. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Black Eyed Peas reunion?

      1. Mysterion
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Will.i.an signing imminent

      2. Ginkapo FPL
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        Dat Hump

  9. RyanC
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    I'm torn between the temptation of Wilson to Rashford... and the anguish of knowing making that move means I can't significantly upgrade Kenedy to someone like Richarlison. 🙁

    I'm not sure I can allow Kenedy to cling onto a place in my squad for another gameweek.

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Kenedy to Brooks later on?

  10. HD7
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    My GW19 team can look like this:

    Fab
    Doherty Robbo Alonso Digne AWB
    Salah Richa FAnderson
    Kane Auba

    Subs: Button, Camarasa, Success, Kenedy

    However I have 2 FT... any ideas where to use at least one of the transfers?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Zero city

      1. HD7
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        So?

    2. Annie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Salah to Sterling

  11. WVA
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Alonso Laporte Wilson > Vvd Kolasinac Rashford?

    1. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

  12. My Name Is Pepu
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Lindy.

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      He'll be on corners next.

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        And on pens soon after that

  13. Positive vibes
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Laporte, Wilson -> Digne, Rashford

    For a hit -4, yes or no?
    Thanks 🙂

  14. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Why is everyone wanting to lose Wilson so badly?? He looked fixtureproof and AWB covers for him next week

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      0, 1, 2, tot, mnu.

    2. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

  15. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Phil Jones goal threat 😮

  16. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Still trying to get this sorted: Alonso + Laporte + Armstrong >>> Luis + Digne + Martial for -4?

    1. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Do it imo

  17. HD7
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    So Salah scored more than Sterling Haz Sane all together? ...ooOps

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Brooks scored more than Salah and Sterling

    2. My Name Is Pepu
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Where were you the first 14 weeks?

  18. Paul

    Bottomed, 2 ft, which ?

    A- Schindler peryera kamara -4 to bednarek romeu/white rashford

  21. The Yorkshire Pirlo
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Awful few weeks.

    Sold Salah before hat-trick, sold Hazard before his returns and sold Auba before his brace today. Missed all their hauls.

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 3 months ago

      Good lessons learnt I guess. Did the first two mistakes myself which is one reason I kept Auba

      1. HD7
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 3 months ago

        I think you can see the pattern here?
        Impulse over Patience :/

  22. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Scrote

  23. My Name Is Pepu
    • 9 Years

    POGBAAA ASSIST AGAIN

  26. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Another generous deflection.

  27. Meinhoff
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Pogba assisting again, well done my son

  28. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years

  29. Niho992

    Pogba 2 assist. I really wanted him to be quiet so i can bring him next week. Now i dont know do i want him

  30. HD7
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 3 months ago

    Herrera essential?
