Greenwood only Man United asset to retain place as Solskjaer rotates heavily

As feared, Manchester United bring a heavily rotated side into their second Triple Gameweek 35 fixture.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer makes 10 changes from the team that beat Aston Villa on Sunday, Mason Greenwood (£7.2m) the only asset to retain his starting berth against Leicester City.

After featuring on the flanks of attacking midfield at Villa Park, the 19-year-old leads the line on Tuesday evening with Marcus Rashford (£9.6m) and Edinson Cavani (£8.0m) on the bench.

They are joined there by Bruno Fernandes (£11.5m), Paul Pogba (£7.6m), Luke Shaw (£5.5m), Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£5.7m) and Dean Henderson (£5.2m).

Premier League debutants Amad Diallo (£5.4m) and Anthony Elanga provide the width this evening, either side of Juan Mata (£5.8m), who makes his first league start since Gameweek 9.

Nemanja Matic (£4.7m) and Donny van de Beek (£6.6m) look set for central midfield duties while Solskjaer has named a back-four of Brandon Williams (£4.2m), Eric Bailly (£4.8m), Axel Tuanzebe (£4.1m) and Alex Telles (£5.3m) in front of David de Gea (£5.3m).

Leicester are in much strong first-team shape with James Maddison (£7.3m) and Ricardo Pereira (£5.9m) the only two to drop the bench.

As expected, Jamie Vardy (£10.3m) and Kelechi Iheanacho (£6.3m) lead the line with Ayoze Pérez (£6.0m) taking on a number 10 role in front of Wilfred Ndidi (£4.8m) and Youri Tielemans (£6.4m).

Luke Thomas (£4.1m) and Marc Albrighton (£5.2m) are the left and right wing-backs respectively with Timothy Castagne (£5.8m) tucked into a back-three with Caglar Söyüncü (£5.3m) and Wesley Fofana (£5.0m).

Triple Gameweek 35 Line-ups

Manchester United XI: De Gea; B Williams, Bailly, Tuanzebe, Telles; Matic, van de Beek; Diallo, Mata, Elanga; Greenwood.

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel; Söyüncü, Fofana, Castagne; Thomas, Ndidi, Tielemans, Albrighton; Pérez; Vardy, Iheanacho.

    Maguire ankle ligament damage, BBC

      Was it caused by a BBC?

      🙁

  4. Digital-Real

    Leicester need a new keeper, Kasper's errors have gone unnoticed all season.

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Not all season apparently.

  5. Tango74

    Hopefully he haul Greenwood off soon so he plays in next game ??

    1. Hooky
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Probably get 60 mins today and 30 in the next game

  6. Mika-eel

    Happy that Greenwood has turned around his season.

    Such a good player.

    1. Digital-Real
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      end of season wonder, tired legs an all that

      1. Mika-eel
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Will remember that for next season!

        Straight in my team for the last 10 games.

  7. Baby Bowen
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Fuming Lindelof and Bruno not starting but elated with Greenwood the legend!

    1. Tango74
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Why fuming most assumed that. They would only start 2

    2. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Incredible the lack of realism on here.

        Just been reading, mentalness

      I am sure you never believed in this TGW crap.

      1. Baby Bowen
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Given how close we are to end of the season I actually did, and with Maguire injury I thought Lindelof was nailed on for all 3

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          4 games in 8 days is mental. Plus EL final.

          1. Baby Bowen
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            I’d do it 🙂

            1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
              • 7 Years
              2 years, 10 months ago

              Hahaha! Me too actually.

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      JWP masterclass this evening

    2. Mika-eel
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Just need Forster to start for an extra 1 or 2 points.

      Every point so vital now.

      1. justaguy9
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Need a ward clean sheet

        1. Mika-eel
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          That will be a disaster as I have Benteke.

  8. The VAR Team
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Who else went Rashford over Greenwood cause he played in Europa? 🙁

    1. Leaf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      And rashford will probably play Thursday and Greenwood won’t

      1. The VAR Team
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        True, but with Greenwood's finishing it was a silly move in hindsight 🙂

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Especially with his legs.

          1 2 Leicester City

    2. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I captained Rashy over Greenwood 🙁 but still half the GW to go for United

    3. justaguy9
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I went both but c rashford

  9. Ginkapo FPL
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Has anyone mentioned that Greenwood was the obvious captain pick yet?

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Ha ha . Probably but I'm not wading through the drivel to find out.

    2. Reece’s Pieces
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      That can only be judged at the end of the gameweek

  10. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Cavani warming up

    1. JBG
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Hopefully Shaw and Bruno soon as well.

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Those 2.

  11. Hect.OR 98th
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Hope Zaha puts in some effort. Was bitten by him earlier in the season yet still succumbed to DGW myopia. I don't think I've ever had him at the right time, and I don't think I'll ever learn.

    1. Reece’s Pieces
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      He looked very grumpy the last game. He tends to do something every third game and this is that third game ...

      1. Hect.OR 98th
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Is that the trick? Maybe I've always had him for the crap two.

        1. Reece’s Pieces
          • 2 Years
          2 years, 10 months ago

          Prob not but I read that recently and saw this was the third game so we will soon see ...

  12. Fudgy
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Zaha, you must score a brace and assist Cahill.

    1. Hect.OR 98th
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      No wonder you're losing your ML. You've seen my bad choice mid and raised it with a crap defender

  13. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Pogba, Fernandes & Cavani warming up.

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Woohoo!

    2. justaguy9
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      No rashford?

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Sounds like Rashy coming on with Cavani.

    3. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Rashy too pls Ole

  14. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years

    That was Ihenacho's chance... missed.

  15. justaguy9

    Cavani owners wake up. He is warming up

  16. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years

    Nacho(C). That Miss is not surprising

  17. REDMOND IN SANDALS
    • 3 Years

    Maddison coming on for his 1 pointer

  18. justaguy9
    • 2 Years

    1. Reece’s Pieces
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Cavani and Rash on the way

      1. Mika-eel
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Have him too. Was so frustrating last game. At least he was getting into good positions.

      2. justaguy9
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Lets go ward! Hoping for a dull 0-0

    2. Utopsis

      Gutted I swapped Mitchell for Lingard last minute - only because Roy led me down the garden path

  20. Hazz

    • 6 Years

    Cahill misses out.

    McCarthy benched for both teams.

    Is it worth to do nacho to bamford (-4) or just play davis for 1 point..

    Dont have keeper also..

    1. justaguy9
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      If u don't want nacho for the last 2 games then yes

  25. Hazz

    Greenwood about to be rested for Liverpool 😉

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      He was the obvious captain with his youthful recovery.

      I was just burnt on a 2 point punt on him earlier with the armband a few weeks back, away at Leeds.

  26. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Time to shine Rashford.

      He'll get tripped by the physio and get a penalty as the other players head for the showers.
