Blank Gameweek 34 concludes this evening with Manchester United v Brentford.

Kick-off is at 20:00 BST.

TEAM NEWS

There are two changes for United this evening, one of which is enforced.

Matheus Cunha is absent from the Red Devils’ matchday squad, so Amad Diallo comes into the side.

The other alteration sees Harry Maguire return from suspension and take the place of Noussair Mazraoui.

Leny Yoro has recovered from injury to make the bench.

Also among the United substitutes is Patrick Dorgu, making his comeback after a three-month absence.

Brentford are unchanged from Gameweek 33.

The Bees have their own (very!) long-term absentee on the substitutes’ bench.

Josh Dasilva hasn’t featured for over two years due to a significant knee injury but is back in the visitors’ squad tonight.

LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: Lammens; Dalot, Maguire, Heaven, Shaw; Casemiro, Mainoo; Amad, Fernandes, Mbeumo; Sesko.

Subs: Bayindir, Dorgu, Malacia, Mazraoui, Yoro, Mount, Ugarte, Lacey, Zirkzee.

Brentford XI: Kelleher; Kayode, van den Berg, Collins, Lewis-Potter; Yarmoliuk, Jensen, Damsgaard; Schade, Thiago, Ouattara.

Subs: Valdimarsson, Hickey, Pinnock, Dasilva, Nelson, Ajer, Donovan, Furo, Shield.

    Need a 6-7 game with hatrick from Bruno and Thiago!

    How about an injury replacement chip?

    Only playable after a started player goes off injured in a game. Playable after end of match, replaces them with next available sub.

    Call it the Bench Jam chip?

      Sucks

      *I have no subs

      How about a 50/50 chip where you can have 2 players in the slot but you only get 40% of the points of whichever one does best. I've had loads of coin flip decisions go the wrong way over DGW33BB and FH34

      1. NZREDS
        • 12 Years
        just now

        I’d probably still get 2 points from from both players before the 40%!

      They will never add something that is playable mid game week.

        How about making multiple chips playable in the same week.
        TC and BB and FH simultaneously

      I'll get McGinn - 2 pts in for Cunha, better than nowt.

      Getting 6 points for Cunha. Probably better than what that donkey would have gotten on his own.

            Aye great FH pick

      2. Thankfully getting Anderson 11 points off the bench, finally a bit of good fortune!!

      Bruno, Mbeumo, Thiago and Dango to score big

      Michael Carrick on Matheus Cunha:

      “He had a bit of a sore hip flexor after the game against Chelsea. He was looking quite promising during the week. We thought he'd be okay but he didn't quite progress quick enough. It's nothing too serious but unfortunately he misses out tonight.”

      So owners can hold for his 8pts vs Pool next GW

      Is Semenyo to Cherki on a WC the smart move ?

      1. #1 Salah Hater
        • 1 Year

        Absolutely. Cherki comfortably the 2nd best footballer in the league right now behind Bruno.

            One plays for a team in the title race and the other plays for relegation fodder for a reason

            2. g40steve
              • 8 Years
              just now

              Look at points metrics, Form, Points per game, Total points one clear winner & not Cherki 😉

        Nah, Semenyo’s a rank killer, all the dead teams own him & 50%+

      Bruno hattrick please. Captained Salah, but badly need some points.

          Standard Amad. Hasn't scored a goal since December.

          Amazing from Mainoo. He HAS to go to the World Cup...

                Probably.

                Scott & Wharton have been pretty good tbf.

            Only thing that can keep my season alive is a Bruno OG and red card. But if you offered me a blank and a yellow card right now I'd snap your hand off.

            For mini leagues- am I the only one that prefers the head-2-head scoring system?

            Obviously requires a bit more luck, but it’s nice not looking at overall ranking and overall points all the time, but rather table points
