The final fixture of Gameweek 34+ sees Aston Villa take on Manchester United.

Kick-off at Villa Park is at 20:15 BST.

There is little in the way of seismic team news, as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has named an unchanged starting XI for the fourth league game in a row.

Mason Greenwood (£4.7m) gets another start down the right flank, then, with Bruno Fernandes (£8.9m), Paul Pogba (£8.3m), Marcus Rashford (£9.1m) and Anthony Martial (£8.3m) supporting the budget FPL forward in attack.

There is only one change for Aston Villa, meanwhile, as Mbwana Samatta (£5.3m) comes into Dean Smith’s line-up to replace Keinan Davis (£4.3m).

Rashford, Martial and Greenwood are all owned between 46% and 51% of the top 10k, with Fernandes sitting in more than nine in ten Fantasy squads among this elite bunch.

Just under 20% of the top 10,000 FPL managers have captained the Portuguese midfielder.

Fernandes has averaged 8.9 points per match since he joined the Red Devils in January.


Aston Villa XI: Reina, Konsa, Hause, Mings, Taylor, Grealish, Luiz, McGinn, El Ghazi, Trezeguet, Samatta.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Matic, Pogba, Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford, Martial.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

  4. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Another couple of goals from Martial and Greenwood and I might still make a green arrow this gw

    1. Firminooooo
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Same. But important Rashford blanks and no CS

  5. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    I was around 40k two GWs ago. Now I'm 114k. I love this game.

  6. Babelcopter
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    What’s wrong whit Rashford!? He should be my differential.. need to get rid of for..

    1. Niho992
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Same. He is awful

    2. Ambrosiana Inter
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Same, Firmino could be good, Burnley and then arsenal, he always scores big vs the gunners

  7. FCSB
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Rashford Jimenez >> Greenwood Vardy (-4)

    4. shaunyjames
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Making this move after this game - just cant decide which of the two to captain

    5. Stoic
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      +1

  8. GE
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Need Martial!

    Stupid to do Kane, Rashford and Guendouzi -> Vardy, Ings and Martial (-8), means rotate Ings and Greenwood (!)
    Or do it next GW for (-4).

    Or just log off? 🙂

  9. Moderately content penguin
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Out of curiosity what’s the largest leap in price a player has achieved from one season to the next?

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Kane went from 5.0 > 9.5

      That seems hard to top.

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 17 days ago

        Mahrez was more no?

        1. suddenorgan
          • 15 Years
          6 years, 17 days ago

          just looked was £5.5 to £9.5

        2. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 17 days ago

          Mahrez was 5.5 > 9.5.

          So that's 4.0m same as Vardy between 15/16 who went 6.0 > 10.0.

          So Kane still has the record.

          1. Stoic
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 17 days ago

            Better to look at percentages

      2. Moderately content penguin
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 17 days ago

        Thought he’d have done something like that.

        Greenwood is going to be very hard to price next season

        1. Collie01
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 17 days ago

          Will he be classed as a mod or forward?

          1. Collie01
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 17 days ago

            *mid

        2. diesel001
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 17 days ago

          If Jesus is £9.5m then you price Greenwood the same, IMO. Seems harsh, but the guy scores goals and is outscoring Rashford and Martial.

          Foden should be £7.5m - £8.0m given Silva is leaving.

          1. Moderately content penguin
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 17 days ago

            What did Rash start this season as - that feels like the benchmark to me

      3. JONALDINHO
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 17 days ago

        Greenwood 4.5 to 9?

      4. HuttonDressedasLahm
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 17 days ago

        Greenwood will be 4.5-8 imo
        Lundstram 5.5 midfielder
        Nketiah 6.5 mil
        Ings 9.5
        Kane 5 mil midfielder 🙂

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
          6 years, 17 days ago

          Pepe: free as a buy one get one free

          1. suddenorgan
            • 15 Years
            6 years, 17 days ago

            if he goes to below £8m I can see the pre-season questions already

    2. suddenorgan
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Mahrez?

  10. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Rashford to Greenwood

    Nketiah to Ings

    For -4???

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Yes

    2. JBG
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Considering that myself...

    3. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Makes sense

    4. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Considering the same

  11. Hitmonlee
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Kane>>

    A) Jesus
    B) Vardy

    1. GE
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      B by far

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      B or A as a punt?

    3. DandyDon
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Brought in Vardy this week, may move onto Jesus for last two fixtures if it looks like he’ll start then

    4. Stoic
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Benteke even

  12. DandyDon
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Lots on here were criticising decision to swap rashford for Greenwood but it’s clear which one is most in form from that half. Obviously in my own case upgrading Guendouzi to Pulisic was the main reason(!) for the transfer but I wasn’t exactly concerned swapping rashford out.

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Looked a no brainier on paper, easy to say in hindsight I suppose

    2. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      I was so close to doing it GW33 but it still wasn’t clear that he was nailed then. Obviously is now. Will do the move this week.

    3. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Also a tad early to claim victory

  13. Dont give a fuchs
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Stoke lost 5-0 to Leeds. Jack butland was in goal.

    1. Danstoke82
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      Butland is absolute garbage. Saying that so is the rest of the team. Shambles.

  14. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    More needed from Woody set up from his friend Anto.

  15. SkeletONv01
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Greenwood, Martial, Bruno(C) owner here \o/

  16. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    ML season over. Final straw for Rashford.

    Use my FT to do Rashford to Greenwood then consider how to use my -4 later?

    Two weeks later than I first considered the move but there you go...

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      That’s what I did

      Ended up doing Duda>Mahrez for the hit, went ok!

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 17 days ago

        Nice one, thanks. Got Mahrez too, just painful watching United having kept faith with Rash!

        1. Steve The Spud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 17 days ago

          Yea, not a bad move, still a good player - form is massive

  17. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years

    In other Utd news
    Lukaku and Sánchez 1-0 down 🙂

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      You just know Inter are going to knock out United in the Europa League...

      1. HuttonDressedasLahm
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 17 days ago

        Sánchez eligible?

  18. Threat Level Midnight
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 17 days ago

    Even though I agree Bruno’s pen shouldn’t have been given, neither was Kane’s. Watch the replay. He clearly trips over Vertonghen and is already going down. I know everyone upset because bringing Kane in was a terrible move in the first place.

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 17 days ago

      What you smoking

      1. Threat Level Midnight
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 17 days ago

        Clear as day. They’ve shown the replay multiple times. Admitting it is the first step!

    Rash is going to score and assist now isn’t he?

        • 10 Years
        6 years, 17 days ago

        0.1 only, I'm afraid. I do have DCL on the bench though, could sell him.

        1. Threat Level Midnight
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 17 days ago

          Could sell him for fodder like Gordon maybe? Then upgrade Jimmy to Vardy? Just spitballing.

    Pope (3.9)
    TAA, Aurier, Ritchie (Holgate, Robinson)

    Do I
    A; use 1ft to swap Kane for Vardy, free hit week after.
    B; -4 hit Kane & Nketiah > Vardy & Greenwood?
