Gameweek 6 begins at Old Trafford where the Wayne Rooney circus is in full swing.

The United skipper is dropped to the bench by Jose Mourinho, causing a big stir that dominates the pre-match build-up.

When the dust settles, we can see a total of four changes in the United line-up, as Daley Blind, Ander Herrera, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard are drafted in. Antony Martial and Luke Shaw miss out through injury, while Marouane Fellaini drops to the bench.

The big news for Fantasy managers is the continued emergence of Marcus Rashford, who is surely boosted by the decision to drop Rooney.

As for Leicester City, they are unchanged as Kasper Schmeichel remains sidelined amidst reports that he is now set to be absent for three weeks with his groin injury.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Well my gw is over and none of my players have played yet. Baines and lovren owner. Dw, Amat and Holebas will come in. One is injured and one will concede 4. Beautiful

      • 12 Years

      Holebas isn't ruled out

    4. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      and those are all defenders who may have combined for 6 points for you anyways, not the end of the world

    Baines not even on Bench . Didn't See that coming.

    1. Fitzy.
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Obviously injured.

  4. Vatroslav

    Lukaku on pens 😀

    1. faver
      • 10 Years

      My vc..

  5. For Fuchs Sake
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Can I have my WC back?

  6. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Early days but anyone regretting going Kun(c) over Firminho?

    1. faver
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Nah

    2. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      not yet

    3. itwaswritten
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      No.

      Agüero is so scoring a hat-trick!

    4. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Have you seen the 3 players behind Kun?

      Swansea have conceded the 2nd most shots in the box.

      Kun has 4th most shots in the box with 2 fewer appearances than anyone in the top 10 of that list.

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        That helps a bit 😛

    That Gray is so underratted. Totally must be nailed in!!

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I had him at the start of the season over Capoue as he was my prediction for a breakthrough player.

      He takes set prices when he plays too. Too many players in his way atm though.

  8. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Jaku: Don't understand why so many gave brought him in and kept on wc this week. Everybody knew Pickford was 0.1 cheeper, more likely to keep his place and getting lots of save points every match...

  9. KOLASINA(C)
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    I'd do with Ibra last minute goal.

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Rashford out

  10. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    You don't even need the bibs anymore. Whoever is leaking the Liverpool team is next level

    1. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Your prediction was bang on. Top work mate

  11. Bushido
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Out of the following which would you get rid of first. Rank them please.
    A) Bony
    B) Valencia
    C) Shaw
    D) Jaku

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      D C A B

    2. thepeen555
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      D c a b

    3. Hi I'm Jose
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      B)

    4. Thomas Magnum
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      A
      D
      C
      B

    5. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Well i'd say valencia last since he's actually nailed & contributing. Jaku can be a bench keeper... Bony also playing... So... Shaw?

  12. thepeen555
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    At least jaku benched I will look to move him on then for someone to rotate with Heaton

    1. KOLASINA(C)
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      FT wasted.

      1. thepeen555
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        For you or me? I haven't got any other plans for my ft atm

  13. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Lukaku hattrick incoming

  14. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    So for those who were holding Ibra for Stoke, are we still keeping?

    1. KOLASINA(C)
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Will see.

      1. Flynny
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Yes....and then he goes...

      2. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Gonna me mega hard though.

        If Aguero fires then everyone will migrate to him (I own him already anyway) but Ibra could easily lose 0.3 this week and likes of Rashford or any other performer gain massively. Could be looking at 0.6 mininum swing come GW 8 for your Ibra replacement and TBH was only gonna keep Ibra till Stoke game.

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Might sell to preserve team value. Ibra could be 11.0 after the international break if he blanks vs. stoke

    3. Darth Crooks
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on other results. Will be closely monitoring Pool game to see if I want to do Ibra>Rashford and get in Mane or Firmino and put Capoue back on the bench

    4. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Sold him before this gw

    5. Manaf
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Yep.I want to get rid of Valencia first.

  15. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    OMG!!

    Just realised I picked Coleman in my wild card because Baines has been chronically injured for 3 years...!!!

    Cry my a river

    1. FPLEL

  16. Judas

    9 years, 4 months ago

    That Liverpool leaked lineup was bang on again. Happy to have Lovren in my WC team though if he is back next week

    Baines not even on the bench. Must be ill too or injured?

    1. Lallana_
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah Lovren a nice pick long-term. Although I'm benching him next week 😮

      Perhaps I should have got Walker over Kosc all along.

    2. BabyB
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Rumours of a hamstring issue

  17. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Can Capoue come on for one of my non playing Keepers? (Schmeichel and Jakupovic)

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Hello Captain Fishface trap from Star Wars...

      1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        What? I've never watched Star wars. Got better things to do with my time.

  18. Hurricane Gilbert
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    If Holebas doesn't start I will only have Walker and Amat wtf

    1. Slippy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

  19. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

  22. AK ⭐
    • 13 Years

  23. Lyonnais
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    If Holebas doesn't play on monday, Amat (MCI) will come into my XI....
    Wildcard off to a great start 🙁

    1. AK ⭐
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      That's something you would have known pre deadline.

      1. Lyonnais
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Not really or did you know Baines would miss out ?

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Amat and Curtis Davies for me. Liverpool never beat Hull

  24. Patty
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone know anything about Lovren's injury?

    1. Judas
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      illness

  25. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    “We have no more bad injuries but there are some players we need to evaluate. Jose Holebas we will know about today or tomorrow if he’s ok. A lot of the players after the Manchester United game need to be evaluated.
    “Holebas has a bit of a problem with the abductor and I hope he will be ok. Before the Arsenal game he had a problem but then he was ok. We need to see today and tomorrow.”

    Really need him to play or I only have 2 defenders playing 😮

  26. Hy liverpool
    • 12 Years

      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Someone had said hamstring as he heard it on a different site - I guess it could be right

  27. Jamie_GAWA
    • 9 Years
