Key Man United assets return but Greenwood and Mané benched at Old Trafford

Manchester United name a strong team to face Liverpool in their final match of Triple Gameweek 35.

Bruno Fernandes (£11.5m), Marcus Rashford (£9.6m) and Edinson Cavani (£8.0m) all return to the attack although Mason Greenwood (£7.2m) misses out on a third start in as many matches, named on the bench.

Paul Pogba (£7.6m) also comes back into the side and looks side to feature on the left-hand side of attacking midfield, which would see Rashford take up the right-hand position again.

Manchester United’s defence is also back to relative full-strength with Luke Shaw (£5.5m) and Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£5.7m) in the full-back roles either side of Victor Lindelof (£4.8m) and Eric Bailly (£4.8m), the latter standing in for an injured Harry Maguire (£5.6m).

Meanwhile, despite scoring against Southampton on Saturday, Sadio Mané (£11.7m) drops to the Liverpool bench to make way for Roberto Firmino (£9.0m).

That means a fifth-successive Premier League start for the versatile Diogo Jota (£7.0m) who, today, looks set to play in Mané’s left-wing role on the opposite flank to Mohamed Salah (£12.7m).

With Ozan Kabak (£5.0m) and Ben Davies (£4.7m) still on the sidelines alongside Virgil van Dijk (£6.2m), Joel Matip (£5.4m) and Joe Gomez (£5.2m), Nathaniel Phillips (£4.1m) and Rhys Williams (£4.0m) are Liverpool’s centre-back partnership for the second match in a row.

Triple Gameweek 35 Line-ups

Manchester United XI: Henderson; Shaw, Bailly, Lindelof, Wan-Bissaka; McTominay, Fred; Pogba, B Fernandes, Rashford; Cavani.

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Robertson, N Phillips, R Williams, Alexander-Arnold; Thiago, Wijnaldum, Fabinho; Jota, Firmino, Salah.

    Henderson isn’t as good as ddg. Hyped up because he’s English

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
        2 years, 11 months ago

        The problem is ddg isn't as good as ddg anymore

        1. Yank Revolution
          • 12 Years

          This.

    2. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years

      WHat is Shaw doing?

      1. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Leaving my team Pronto

      2. Yank Revolution
        • 12 Years

        Bad bounce...unlucky.

    3. DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years

      You should be on the end of that Salah come on man

    4. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Salah disappointing score for a DGW so far

    5. Ady87
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      TAA/AWB, I’ll take that. Even if it hurts as a fan ha

    6. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Shaw might score less than Watkins at this rate.

    7. dark91
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Happy with the points but so far Jota and TAA returning while Salah (c) is quiet!!

    8. sminkypinky
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Shaw in for a hit this week was a success.

      1. GoonerSteve
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        My thoughts exactly.

        I swapped him for Dallas also.

        Swapped back already.

    9. justaguy9
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      so TAA was the obvious c choice?

      1. Utopsis
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        errr

    10. Limbo
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      2. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Can’t believe TAA is outscoring Philips

      3. justaguy9
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        is this the same LIV team that lost to Burnley Brighton Fulham etc.?
