Norwich City v Manchester United brings Saturday’s Premier League action to a close, with kick-off at Carrow Road at 17:30 GMT.

The team news is nice and simple for the visitors as Ralf Rangnick names an unchanged team from last weekend’s 1-0 win over Crystal Palace.

Cristiano Ronaldo was transferred in by just under 450,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers ahead of Friday’s deadline and is the second most-captained player of Gameweek 16.

Diogo Dalot and David de Gea also featured in the top 10 most transferred-in players of this current Gameweek.

Dean Smith has made five changes from Sunday’s defeat at Spurs, with Lukas Rupp, Dimitris Giannoulis, Ozan Kabak, Przemyslaw Placheta and Josh Sargent coming into the side.

Budget FPL defender Brandon Williams misses out as he is ineligible to face his parent club, while Ben Gibson, Pierre Lees-Melou, Adam Idah and Andrew Omobamidele also drop out of the side.

Dean Smith reported injury and illness issues concerning four unnamed players in his pre-match presser, and Gibson and Omobamidele are indeed not part of the matchday squad.

GAMEWEEK 16 LINE-UPS

Norwich City XI: Krul, Aarons, Hanley, Kabak, Giannoulis Rupp, Gilmour, Placheta, McLean, Sargent, Pukki.

Subs: Gunn, Byram, Dowell, Cantwell, Sorensen, Lees-Melou, Mumba, Idah, Tomkinson.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Dalot, Lindelof, Maguire, Telles, McTominay, Fred, Bruno Fernandes, Sancho, Cristiano Ronaldo, Rashford.

Subs: Heaton, Henderson, Bailly, Jones, Greenwood, Lingard, Shaw, Van de Beek, Elanga

    Well that's a poor pass... But everyone will blame CR for missing a "sitter".

      I agree on previous page

    I'm stopping watching our following football. City pool and united all get a pen and win 1-0 and Chelsea get 2 pens to win their game. Go f yourselfl Premier league

      *or

    2. @persecuted_by_mods

      Didn't see the Chelsea ones but only 1 wasn't a penalty which out of the rest which was the city pen

      Teams who attack more get more pens.. the conspiracy..

        Might as well throw VAR in the soup also cause that's another disgraceful load of absolute bollicks

    5. Pinturicchio10
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Of all the reasons to stop watching, this is the silliest.

      1. The Farke Side Gallery

        I watched Leeds fight their hearts out today to be robed in the 94th minute, robbed. The city pen was a joke also. What's the point investing time and emotion into something that's doomed from the start.

          Football has always more or less been a battle of the richest. I don't understand how you're surprised

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Bit lucky to be available for Brentford. Could easily of got his 5th yellow tonight.

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years

        4 years, 7 months ago

    2. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years

    Ronaldo faking injury

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

    Ronaldo Siuicude

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

  14. Beatle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

    2. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah although it looked a bit more worrying. He was holding his chest as if he was having trouble breathing.

  15. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    How the hell is Ronaldo still pn 3 BAPS

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

  18. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 17 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Another DDG save

    1. Guru Mediation
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Offside I think

  19. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    The luck wow

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      To concede a free kick that shouldn't have been given in the first place? And then offside not being given for the resultant header?

      1. JBG
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Luck.

  20. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Norwich don't deserve to lose this but I need those DDG points badly

  21. JBG
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    DDG is god.

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Also offside.

  22. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    DDG will be on 3 baps after that.

  23. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Will cr get 3 bps?

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Might hold onto joint 3 with DDG

    2. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Holding … on 31 vs DDG and Lindy on 29 …

  24. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    That must be Six or more saves for Ddg?

  25. manu4life99
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Why is Benteke ranked 3rd in the watch list? When did he suddenly stop sucking?

  26. Kodap
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Surely DDG gets 3 baps now?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      On 31 with Ron now

  27. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 17 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    3 - Ronaldo, de Gea (31)
    1 - Lindelöf (29)

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

      Vomits

  28. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Ronnie brace time.

  29. Alexis Nonsense
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Dennis matching Ronaldo

    so far my Ronaldo fear is over...

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      What if I have both

      1. Alexis Nonsense
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Still no fear, 12.4m should net you consistent hauls, 1 goal + max bonus is 7m striker territory imo

        Could still be a good pick, but I don't think he is

        1. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          I mean I have a humongous team value so I can afford him without affecting the rest of my team anyways.

          Ramsdale Gunnarsson
          TAA Cancelo James Alonso Dalot
          Salah Bernardo Foden Jota Bowen
          Ronaldo Dennis Locadia

  30. JBG

    Wow... Poor decision/pass after poor decision/pass from Rashford. Worst I've ever seen him and that's saying something.
