That means Anthony Elanga drops out, and takes his place on the substitutes bench alongside Casemiro and Cristiano Ronaldo.

    Jesus to Toney?

    A. Yay
    B. Nay

    Other forwards are Haaland and Mitro

    1. Bluetiger1
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Haaland 100% if you do not have him.

      1. james 101
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Got him mate. And Mitro

        1. Bluetiger1
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Sorry misread - possible hold for a week & got for 2FT following week with another week to assess

    2. james 101
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Gives a mail to play with elsewhere in the team.

      Not sure how I’d use it but I’m sure it’d come in handy at some point.

      1. james 101
        4 years, 1 month ago

        *a mil

    3. Royal5
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure with Fulham next

      1. james 101
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Who has?

        1. Royal5
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Doh. Meant Everton

          1. james 101
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Yep. Good fixture.

            Toney has Sou though. He can score against them.

            Or I could do Mitro to Toney for one hit, if I did Saliba to Fofana / Dalot

    4. Maeki2

      Yes

  2. Bluetiger1
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Man United 3 v 1 Arsenal - if score line stays with a win for United opens up the Premier League again.

    Jesus -keep or sell?

    1. Chalobah's Witness
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 1 month ago

      keep
      It's obvious United are on fire at the moment. Not even City would stop them easily, it's just a positive trend and then they will get back to old ways mid season.

      1. Bluetiger1
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks

    2. Deulofail
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Arsenal attack looked great today again and Jesus a bit part of that. With Everton and Brentford next, I don't see why anyone would sell tbh

      1. james 101
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Looking at others like Toney with higher firm and lower cost. And good fixtures too.

        1. james 101
          4 years, 1 month ago

          *form

          1. Deulofail
            4 years, 1 month ago

            I think you probably define form differently to me. Jesus in top form. Toney not looked great for a couple of games before this week

        2. Chalobah's Witness
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Arsenal will end up in top 4 and Brentford probably around 10.

          1. james 101
            4 years, 1 month ago

            I wasn’t planning on bringing in the entire team mate.

            1. Danno - Emre Canada
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Hahahah

          2. Danno - Emre Canada
            4 years, 1 month ago

            I’ll take that Beeessss

      2. Bluetiger1
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks

    3. Not again Shirley
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Captain next week.

      1. Bluetiger1
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Haaland

    4. Bluetiger1

  3. PogChamp

    Jesus 1 pointer is really helping my OR.

  4. Randaxus
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Respect to Manchester United, they are no longer the team that they used to be.

  5. DRIZ ✅
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Time to get Manutd players in team

  6. Nomar
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Reality check for Arsenal here.

    1. TomSaints
      4 years, 1 month ago

      They’ve bossed the game, but somehow ended up losing

      1. TomSaints
        4 years, 1 month ago

        First goal was really key and they unfortunately scored a good one only for refs to slip up

      2. Royal5
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Terrible defending

      3. Zilla
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Wouldn't say "bossed"

    2. DRIZ ✅
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Typical Arsenal

    3. Randaxus
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Arsenal have been the better team, United are very good at counter attacks.

    4. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Naive in the big games as always.

  7. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Goes to show having a ref and VAR from Manchester really helped United today.

    Back to buying refs again. Fergie would be proud.

    1. tryf88
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Lol get a grip

    2. Zimo
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Lol classic Arsenal fan.

    3. Piggs Boson
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I've missed this salt 🙂

      United really are back...

      1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Really not

  8. g40steve

    1. Deulofail
      4 years, 1 month ago

  9. Dr. Rog
    4 years, 1 month ago

    1. Piggs Boson
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Same 🙂

      We nailed it, Dr. Rog!

      1. Dr. Rog
        4 years, 1 month ago

        distinctly remember folks saying trashford lol...

  10. Randaxus
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I picked Rashford at the start of the season and then took him out of my team, turns out that was actually a genius pick lol

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yes, after all...

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        4 years, 1 month ago

        So did I...

  11. Wizard of Ozil
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Mount out Rashford in? Yes or No

    1. DRIZ ✅
      4 years, 1 month ago

  12. PartyTime
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Arsenal robbed

  13. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Sold Toney and benched Rashford.

    Go me.

    1. _Ninja_
      4 years, 1 month ago

      That's a good result of you hate fpl points.

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Sold Haaland on WC before his first hat trick. Brought in Alvarez.

        Think I must have slept with FPL’s wife lol

        1. _Ninja_
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Jeez who you selling this week?

          1. Twisted Saltergater
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Going to ignore FPL for a week

    2. Wizard of Ozil
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Ouch

  14. _Ninja_
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Saka yc

  15. g40steve
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Saka YC

  16. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I still don't trust this ManUtd team is so much better, but they sure wanted a win here way more than Arsenal. Odegaard and maybe Martinelli the only Arsenal players that stood out in a positive way today

    1. Deulofail
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Wanted to win way more than Arsenal. What are you talking about big da?

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Look like they've been first to every second ball and pressing Arsenal's defence into mistakes throughout this half, they didn't seem like to know how to deal with it

      2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Didn't see the first half if that matters

    2. Dr. Rog
      4 years, 1 month ago

      they feel like arsenal last season. could ride a wave but fundamentally they are not quite there.

    3. Deulofail
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Jesus has looked immense. Most Arsenal players have looked at least good tbh

  17. FPL Daniel
    4 years, 1 month ago

    So best Rodrigo replacement was Rashford by a mile

    1. BobbyV
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Mac Allister

  18. FPL Daniel
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone with the ultimate combo Toney and Rashford ?

    1. laGan1n1
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Rashford, Toney and Kane C here

    2. Bushwhacker
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Some dead team for sure.

      1. laGan1n1
        4 years, 1 month ago

        nope

    3. Scrumper
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Rashford first on my bench... Blocked by my host of premium defenders 1 and 2 pointers

    4. Dr. Rog
      4 years, 1 month ago

      had toney, transferred in rashy.

      unfortunately decided to do toney to mitro because of price action. shame

    5. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 1 month ago

      My ML leader has Haaland(c) KDB Toney and Rashford.

      80-90 point gap now

    6. Jack Burton
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yep gone from 2 million to 250000 in 2 weeks

  19. Bushwhacker
    4 years, 1 month ago

    United’s ability to be outplayed and win is driving belief. It either becomes a Leicester situation or a car crash but kudos to Ten Hag.

  20. Ibralicious
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Ten Hag revolution is well and truly underway. No team is on the same level as United at the moment, and the Ajax boys press harder than anything the league has ever seen.

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      4 years, 1 month ago

      This is nothing on 19/20 Liverpool

    2. Bushwhacker
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Outplayed and winning. Bus and break doing well, but it doesn’t work against lower teams.

      1. Digital-Real
        4 years, 1 month ago

        It doesn't win you leagues either.

    3. KanuLenoMeeMoCash
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No team on the same level? Haha come on man

  21. Wizard of Ozil
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Arsenal haven’t played anyone decent except Palace away.

    1. Bushwhacker
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Honestly thought they should win everything up to Spurs in Oct. Sucker punched today.

    2. Zimo
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Palace defence is dodgy as well

  22. Digital-Real
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Ten Hag has zero charisma

  23. Londongeezaa
    4 years, 1 month ago

    So Sky have replaced Man of the match with Player of the match.

    Getting ridiculous

    1. sirmorbach
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I agree, I think, it's a bit silly. But one should tread lightly: one should never go full Souness.

    2. KanuLenoMeeMoCash
      4 years, 1 month ago

      'And Player of the match in this evening's Unspecific limb ball game is...'

    3. Not again Shirley
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yes agree it is ridiculous. Keep man of the match but just apply to mens football. Women can call if what they want whether that be woman or player of the match.

      It’s the same in cricket. No longer batsman but bats person. Just keep it as it was and always had been and again womens matches can be bats person or bats woman.

      Simple really. Everyone too easily offended these days.

      1. have you seen cyan
        4 years, 1 month ago

        this, why cant it be man of the match? Then ladies football it can be woman of the match??
        What do they call it in ladies football? Player of the match or Woman of the match?

        Wont be long until men going through sex changes will be applying for ladies football.

        1. Not again Shirley
          4 years, 1 month ago

          And I bet women don’t even care anyway. Decision would have been made by some political correctness administrator!

    4. DycheDycheBaby
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Agree. It will be Chester City and Chester United before you know it.

    5. Baines on Toast...
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I have absolutely no problem with this. Having a gender neutral term for something which is applicable to both games is completely fine.

  24. jimmyharte
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Arsenal fans: we've been the better team, we've been robbed *tears*

    Like that time yous pressed City for a half an hour lollllll

  25. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Arsenal made united play on the counter at old trafford

    1. Zimo
      4 years, 1 month ago

      So you're saying Arsenal are dumb?

      1. Forza Papac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Obviously not

        1. Zimo
          4 years, 1 month ago

          That is what's implied since United have the best counter attacking players in the league.

    2. Bushwhacker
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Exactly what they wanted. United are a bus and break team.

      1. Forza Papac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I don't believe Ten Hag looks at the players he has thinks they're not able to dominate a game.

        1. Bushwhacker
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah he works with what he’s got. And its not a team that can keep possession and play it around.

    3. Zilla
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Nice trophy

  26. Saka White Rice
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Every week or two there's a new player to buy the template keeps changing. Now everyone will try fit in Toney or Rashford

  27. have you seen cyan
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Kulu, Dasilva, & Perisic > Rashford, Maddison, & Peterson? Formation change to 3-4-3 from 4-3-3

    1. Royal5
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Maddison for a hit? Not for me

      1. have you seen cyan
        4 years, 1 month ago

        -4 yea, got 2 ft. Leicester look trash I agree lol, but im willing to take a risk with him.

  28. AD105
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Salah/Archer > Rash/Mitro for free too kneejerky?

    Sanchez
    TAA Cancelo Tripps Cucu Perisic
    Salah* Diaz Martinelli Gross Andreas
    Haaland Jesus Archer*

  29. sirmorbach
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Too soon for us to be jumping straightway to Rashford/Antony, right?

    1. Bushwhacker
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Absolutely.

    2. BobbyV
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Utd only play like this against the top teams. Be warned.

  30. Zimo
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Arsenal's first real test and they crumble. "Title Challengers" 😆

    1. kroky
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah city didn’t stumble against villa this weekend either

      1. sulldaddy
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Or Liverpool

    2. brianutd-why always we? 20
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yeeeooo
