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.

      Salah is a better pick long term.

      But Mane could beat him in GW14.

      I would wait for GW15 and do it for free.

    Have no pool.
    Would you rather cancelo out to
    A)TAA
    B)Robertson

    Or bring in salah for
    C) Kdb
    D) Bruno

    I know the def won't cover no salah, but really don't want to watch pool with no assets!
    Also not sure its wise to lose bruno or kdb.

      Robertson is the pick of the defenders, TAA isn't at the races this year. Salah is really the must though however you realign your team.

    I have 2FT and want to start making moves towards my GW19 team as I think I’ll probably play FH in 18 as it stands.

    Thinking of doing Grealish > Son but then need to raise £2.1m. Cresswell > Coufal covers a bit. Where would you downgrade to raise the additional £1.6m?

    Martinez, Forster
    Robbo, Chilwell, Cresswell, KWP, Branthwaite
    Salah, KDB, Bruno, Grealish, Stephens
    DCL, Bamford, Wilson

    Is DCL > Adams a decent move or are DCL’s fixtures good enough to ignore recent form?

    Aside from dumping KDB or Robbo I don’t see the solution! Despite tonight I’m not ready to dump Bruno yet.

    Cheers

      They spent the money. The boy has proven his class in the Championship and is better than any other player in a Sheffield United shirt. You either build a team around him or admit you bought something way out of your league style wise, sell him, and keep the lump it forward game. Wilder is the problem here, he's stuck in what to do.

    Captain this week is a tricky one.
    Who is everyone going with?

    Kane ( can easily see a goal but is that not max 9 points?)
    KDB ( won’t be highly captained and City will want to destroy, but Southampton are good)
    Bruno ( blank tonight and Leeds’s is a good side but there not very good defensively)
    Salah ( when in doubt captain him.. but early kick off and Palace away is a really tricky fixture)

      Bruno + the acres of space Leeds leave in the middle of the park . . .too tempting.

      Kane can easily add anothet goal and assist. Leicester haven't been solid defensively.
