Henderson and Telles in for de Gea and Shaw as Brewster is benched again

The first set of midweek Premier League fixtures of 2020/21 comes to a close this evening at Bramall Lane.

Manchester United are the visitors as Sheffield United look to end their 12-match run without a win, with kick-off in South Yorkshire at 20:00 GMT.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has brought Dean Henderson (£5.3m) into his starting XI tonight, with David de Gea (£5.3m) only among the substitutes.

Alex Telles (£5.5m) for Luke Shaw (£4.8m) at left-back is another defensive change that the Norwegian has made, while Nemanja Matic (£4.8m) and Anthony Martial (£8.7m) are brought back into the fold at the expense of Scott McTominay (£4.9m) and Fred (£5.3m).

Chris Wilder has made three alterations to his team, who are looking to avoid a club record eighth successive league defeat.

Jack Robinson (£4.3m) ousts Phil Jagielka (£4.0m) in defence while Oliver Burke (£4.3m) and David McGoldrick (£5.2m) replace the injured Oli McBurnie (£5.6m) and veteran Billy Sharp (£5.6m) in attack.

Those FPL managers hoping for points from Rhian Brewster (£4.5m) will have a familiar sinking feeling, as the young striker is again only among the substitutes.

Bruno Fernandes (£11.0m) is the most-captained player of Gameweek 13, with 1,275,089 managers handing him the armband for this clash.


Sheffield United XI: Ramsdale, Baldock, Basham, Egan, Robinson, Stevens, Berge, Ampadu, Fleck, Burke, McGoldrick.

Man Utd XI: Henderson, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Telles, Matic, Pogba, Greenwood, Fernandes, Martial, Rashford.

    Pogba and Raiola fault obviously. If they weren't tweeting it was gonna be Bruno haul!!!

    Bruno was the best captaincy option this week. Sometimes it doesn't work out.

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      KDB equally good imo

      1. fr3d
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Twice as good

      2. DAZZ
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Twice as good judging by results 😉

      3. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Not really? Blades been worse than Baggies, Bruno been on arguably better form than KDB, with great away form too.

    2. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years

      Sure, if it makes you feel better.

    3. Top Lad Dakes.

      Exactly this, Granny.

      We move.

    4. TheDragon
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      You spelt KDB wrong

    5. tafrère
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      KDB was because he scored more points.

      1. GloryBXI
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Holgate was the best option, in my opninion.

    6. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Agreed with Granville

    7. Mr. O'Connell
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      It was obviously Mason Holgate. Dunno why people were even considering the likes of Bruno and KDB.

    8. SEXY SON
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Son weren’t bad, bet there’s loads of dead teams in top 10k with Son perma captain

    9. Wenger Wishes
      • 3 Years

      the salt is glorious 😆 😆

    10. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I mean, KDB was just as good a shout. It wasn't cut and dry.

    11. JJeyy
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      KDB was, as stats show - 0.25xG, 1xA. Bruno is not beating that at all tonight

      Fellow bruno owner here but after watching this game i dont think so. Problem is oles formation change to include pogba, bruno basically playing cm instead of n.10, if we could have known that then he wouldn't have been the best choice. Annoyingly probably the best cap choice is just going casual and putting it on son every week.. tho I dont own son

      1. tafrère
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Bruno wasn't playing cm.

        1. FPL_Motty
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Did you watch the game? If pogba went forward bruno stayed back in a cm position.

      2. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Tiresome casual nonsense again.

        1. FPL_Motty
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          What part of that is casual - your comment makes no sense. I didnt cap bruno so I dont give a toss that he blanked

  3. Chucky
    • 10 Years

    Penandes BLANK . Get In.. 😀

    1. Warby84

  6. Royal5
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Bruno and Grealish combines for 4 points. What a let down.

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years

      1. Royal5

  8. Rash

    A. Pva grealish jota out - coufal son soucek

    B. Pva jota DCL out - c.taylor son Adams

    C. Something else

    Martinez Johnstone
    James targett chilwell pva lamptey

  10. The Riders of Mohan
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    First time I had 2 FTs and bought Konsa and Stones fml

    At least they were for Bellerin and Mitchell

  11. how now brown cow
    • 9 Years

    Amazon digging up ally mccoist isnt my favourite innovation.

    1. No Professionals
      • 6 Years

      I like him

  12. Long ago I drew a walrus
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Any chance 42 can get me a tiny green arrow 🙁 would be a shame to lose the streak at 9 weeks

    1. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on rank

  13. Hulk Smash
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I keep hearing that there are so many options
    this year and all the premiums are performing but all I see is the entire community complaining about having an awful week, every week. Including me.

  14. Team Bobcat
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Will Greenwood start again soon. Did he play okay?

  15. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Scores when he wants

  16. KGFC
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Ole deserves this!

  17. Budweiser
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    All these casuals with Bruno instead of Rashford

  18. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Is Cancelo to Dier a good transfer for this week?

    1. Cruyff Turn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn't.

  19. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    mcgoldrick essential

  20. MikeS
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Fer Fuchs Ake, I don't know what tranfer to do. Am I bameyang realistic, or is it sonsible to bring in heung min?

    I assume it would be rash to bring in rashford? But it's just a Mata of time before the midfield klich's.

    Stranger ins have happened!

    Telles what transfers you're making this week, whilst I drink my Costa.

    1. Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      You just going to add one line per page and repost?

  21. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    ManU manage to somehow score 3 vs the worst team in the league and Bruno no where to be seen. Lindelol was a better cap pick

    Double drop for Bruno on the cards

  22. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Lindleof with his second assist if the night

  23. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Mcgoldrick haul... What the f is this season lmao

    1. ilikewud
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      As a SHU don't you want that?

      1. George Sillett
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Nah . He's focusing on away days at Barnsley.

  24. Mile Plankton
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    How can you know currently whether it's going to be red or green arrow?
    Is there some tool?

    Before people rush to ship Vardy before the Spurs fixture:

    https://www.transfermarkt.co.in/jamie-vardy/bilanzdetails/spieler/197838/gegner/148

    That's 5 goals, 3 assists for him against them in the premier league, he loves facing them. Should probably reconsider

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Kane also has a great record, guess it’s a -20 to get them both in

    2. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      He thrives against a high line though and Spurs don't play that.

    3. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Mourinho has tightened the Spurs.

  26. R.C
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Should've captained McGoldrick

  27. Now I'm Panicking
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Game on

  28. Steve The Spud

    McGoldrick outscoring Bruno FFS!
