Three more Gameweek 35 matches take place this Sunday, with Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur following on from two afternoon kick-offs.

TEAM NEWS

Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola brings in Tyler Adams and Rayan.

Ryan Christie and David Brooks drop to the bench.

Palace, with one eye on the second leg of their UEFA Conference League semi-final against Shakhtar Donetsk on Thursday, make five changes.

Chris Richards, Tyrick Mitchell, Adam Wharton, Ismaila Sarr and Jean-Philippe Mateta are demoted to substitute duty.

Chadi Riad, Justin Devenny, Jefferson Lerma, Brennan Johnson and Jorgen Strand Larsen come in.

At Old Trafford, the Manchester United team news is straightforward: Matheus Cunha in for the benched Amad Diallo.

Liverpool’s two alterations are enforced, with Ryan Gravenberch and Jeremie Frimpong replacing the injured Mohamed Salah and Alexander Isak.

Alisson Becker has failed to recover, so Freddie Woodman continues between the posts.

    Mainoo is a serious talent

    1. Ignasi M
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      yeah, I'd have him at Arsenal. Understudy to Zubimendi, but MLS is there now.

      1. Moon Dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 1 Year
        1 month, 22 days ago

        Lewis-Skelly looked really good in midfield tbf!

    There's deffo a few Liverpool fans in the home end...

    Is that the Stretford End?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Oh no

      It's the opposite end

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 month, 22 days ago

        Oh.

        It is the Stretford End

        The west stand?

  10. tutankamun

    Bruno YC

  11. JBG
    • 8 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    No fcking way that's a YC!?

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Oh okay haha

      1. Moon Dog

        😀

  12. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    When Bruno gets a YC and doesn’t whinge, you know it could’ve been red.

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Yeah

      He's okay tho

  13. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Bruno smashed him

    Szob

  14. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Decent game this

    I like a 3-2

    As much as a 5-4

  15. Ignasi M
    • 8 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Wirtz...I'm sorry, but I just don'r rate him. He totally reminds me of Denilson who played for Arsenal many years ago. Wonderfully technically gifted player, easy on the eye, but rarely did anything of note and barely affected games.

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Hardly noticed him

    2. JBG
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Liverpool should spend another 100m+ on a player like him

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 month, 22 days ago

        Indeed

        TV money just fuelled transfer and wage inflation

        You need £25m minimum to compete at the bottom of the Championship these days.

        Or 4 X that for some.

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      I sold him before this GW -4 for Saka

    4. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      It’d be fine if he cost them like 30mil…
      But he didn’t 🙂

      1. Ignasi M
        • 8 Years
        1 month, 22 days ago

        yeah innit. the same as Isak. Like, I'd love Isak at Arsenal for £20-30m MAX, knowing he's injured all the time but use him as a squad player and someone who you can manage their injury record by using him as an impact sub.

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          1 month, 22 days ago

          He should have stayed at Newcastle

          1. Ignasi M
            • 8 Years
            1 month, 22 days ago

            yeah for sure.

        2. Ignasi M
          • 8 Years
          1 month, 22 days ago

          Isak is so injury prone he should just be a bench player. He'd probably, paradoxically, play more minutes as his body will be rested and managed better.

  16. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Zirkzee on soon. Prob for Cuhna you’d think

  17. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Cunha will probably lose his bap for getting subbed 🙁

  18. fusen
    • 14 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Bruno currently on 4 points, blow the whistle ref!

  19. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Was Sesko taken off injured?

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Looked like it

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      That's the consensus

      At HT

      Almost changed the result

    3. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Don’t think so. I think Carrick wanted to be more ‘solid’ with Amad on instead who presses and tracks back really well.
      Didn’t work out cos we gifted them 2 easy goals, but that was the idea imo

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 month, 22 days ago

        Really

        Didn't work out

        Will he get the gig?

        Deservedly so, if so.

      2. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        1 month, 22 days ago

        He was clearly limping badly after he was subbed.

        1. thegaffer82
          • 14 Years
          1 month, 22 days ago

          He looks fine, just seen him walking from the bench

          1. x.jim.x
            • 11 Years
            1 month, 22 days ago

            14 years on here and still thinks walking = not injured

            1. thegaffer82
              • 14 Years
              1 month, 22 days ago

              Been playing footy. - forget watching - and never been injured and walked away normally. So don’t know wtf injuries you’ve had or seen where they walk totally normally

              1. x.jim.x
                • 11 Years
                1 month, 22 days ago

                Van Dijk famously walked after Pickford crippled him, off the top of my head

  20. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    VAR pen check

    Gone on Bruno

  21. Ignasi M
    • 8 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Casemiro 17 DEFCONs.

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Been immense again. He’s like a fine wine that guy, gets better with age!

      1. Ignasi M
        • 8 Years
        1 month, 22 days ago

        Very hard to replace without breaking the bank. I guess Utd will go all in for Forrest's Andersen?

        1. thegaffer82
          • 14 Years
          1 month, 22 days ago

          I think he’s City bound sadly

          1. Ignasi M
            • 8 Years
            1 month, 22 days ago

            damn. Cover for Rodri who is facing a little?

        2. Moon Dog
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 1 Year
          1 month, 22 days ago

          I don't think the new board will overpay for Anderson, they want to move past doing that. I've heard Tchouameni might be available at a cheaper price. It sounds farcical but some good sources have said he feels unappreciated by the Madrid fans and that Madrid want to replace him with Rodri. Baleba could be an option too, but maybe as an Ugarte replacement rather than a Casemiro one...

          1. x.jim.x
            • 11 Years
            1 month, 22 days ago

            Saw pretty much everyone is put off by his price, but watch City sign him for like £60m. I’d be fine with 2 out of the name we’re linked with (Camavinga, Tonali, Bruno G, Tchouameni, Wharton, Baleba) but I really think we need 3 assuming Ugarte’s leaving.

          2. Ignasi M
            • 8 Years
            1 month, 22 days ago

            Interesting. Yeah either Tchouameni or Baleba would be very god replacements. I'd take both at Arsenal to offer realistic competition to Zubimendi who has suffered since January.

    2. Moon Dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 1 Year
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Low by his standards.

  22. tutankamun
    • 16 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Brunoff

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Clock running down exercise

  23. CoracAld2831
    • 5 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Bruno on 1 BP.

  24. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Dalot missed a sitter but it matters not

  25. DeSelby
    • 3 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Bruno's a disgrace. Crying and railing at the referee for minutes for a non existent foul. On a yellow already. He deserved at least two red cards. But the refs get what they deserve because they don't do anything about it.

    1. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Wind your neck in

    2. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Should change your name to DeLuded

    3. Bleh
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Yeah he should’ve seen red. Refs at OT have always been soft though.

  26. Moon Dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 1 Year
    1 month, 22 days ago

    First time in over a decade Manchester United have done the double over Liverpool. Balance of power seems to be shifting...

    1. Ignasi M
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Yeah, Slot isn;t good enough. He can't blame injuries. Look at Arsenal, they've had the worst injury record out of everyone all season. Pool have recruited terribly.

  27. Ignasi M
    • 8 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Should give lots of motivation for Villa to pound in Sours this eve. Villa 5 - 2 Spurs

  28. Bigbars
    • 15 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Does that mean that guy can get a haircut or was it 4 in a row, cant remember its been that long since its been mentioned ?

    1. Moon Dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 1 Year
      1 month, 22 days ago

      5 in a row needed. Still a couple of wins needed.

      3/5

      1. Bigbars
        • 15 Years
        1 month, 22 days ago

        bet it'll get busted on the last one

    2. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      5 in a row wasn’t it?

    3. tutankamun
      • 16 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Sunderland and Forest. It’s a shoo-in.

  29. Da Kril
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Oof, Bruno (C) looking dodgy now.
    Gonna have to watch Haaland from behind the sofa tomorrow.

  30. Slitherene
    • 8 Years
    1 month, 22 days ago

    Gordon to Saka, for free?

    1. Ignasi M
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 22 days ago

      Yes. No brainer.
