Gameweek 21 continues under the lights of Old Trafford as Manchester United host Southampton in the evening kick-off.

For Fantasy managers, the focus is certainly on the home side, though arguably they are fading fast as a source of Fantasy talent.

David De Gea – the top owned goalkeeper (43.5%) – has produced just a single clean sheet in his last seven Gameweeks, while Romelu Lukaku’s decline as a Fantasy asset has continued at pace having claimed just two goals in his previous eight Gameweeks.

Even Paul Pogba has disappointed of late, blanking in his two appearances since returning from injury and recording just a single touch in the penalty area in the process. We will look for more from him tonight.

Instead it is Jesse Lingard who heads into this match as an unlikely source of form and points. Deployed in a No 10 role for United, he has produced five goals and two assists in his last seven Gameweeks and was the second most signed asset ahead of today’s deadline.

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

    So, Salah is my captain every week now until the end of the season except for the DGW next week. Morata is a joke!

    1. FPL ZB

      I haven’t captained him before today and I’m doing alright

    Play Duffy (home to Bournemouth) or RLC (away to Southampton)?

  3. FPL_nadez

    Morata Hazard and Richa out for

    A) Son Ali Kane
    B) Son Arni Kane

    Double up on spurs mids or 1 spurs 1 west ham?

  6. Dr. Ante Pavlovic

    Foster
    Walker, Jones, Hegazi
    Hazard, Salah, David Silva, Xhaka, Dier
    Kane, Quaner

    bench: Speroni, Naughton, Mbemba, Lukaku

    Im already on -8, then Lukaku got injured, was thinking about triple captaining Kane, catastrophy I know.

    What do you say, should I hit the wildcard button or not?

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      On -8 already? Why make transfers so early? At least wait until the games of the day are finished

      1. Dr. Ante Pavlovic
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Because Im so unlucky, this was the first time I made transfers before the end of the gameweek.

  7. ooooo
    • 8 Years

    Haz + Rich to Alli + Son will give me this.
    DDG
    Jones Ota Christ
    Salah Alli Sterling Son
    Kane Firmino DCL

    Do it?

  8. sambyy
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Should I use my chance to get rid of Mbemba or bench him forever and have 0.5 more money?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      May as well keep until you WC

      1. sambyy
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I've nearly always had a cheap 5th def as bench fodder but now I don't know if that's the way to go.

    2. rrcmc
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      For what it’s worth, I’m using the chance to upgrade to at least a 4.5 (ish) to get someone who plays.
      Jan always has worse weather than Dec, and we have a few DGW / blanks in the next 10 weeks or so...

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He could play the next day.

    Earlier in the week I thought on using my FH for GW21. I wanted to bring Salah, Firmino, Alonso, De Gea, Yedlin and Dummett in place of Coutinho, Kane, Christensen, Speroni, Ogbonna and Mariappa. Didn't do it because I thought FH will be more usefull later on. New players would have got me 35 pts (since Dummett would have been benched), old players got me 2 pts with Speroni and RLC (autosub for Christensen) left to play. Thats a +30 pts. I think it would have been the perfect FH, too bad I didn't do it.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Only needed to get Salah in for an instant result.

      1. tafrère
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Never considered on ditching Hazard before the Stoke game, so there wasn't much room for Salah apart from using the FH.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Kane + 1 > Salah + 1

          1. tafrère
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Never thought on ditching Kane to bring him back afterwards, too many hits involved.

        Hey TM,will you beat your cup opponent?

  10. GreenArrows

    45 with Otamendi Sterling and RLC to go

    (C) Morata fail

    OR 176K....red or green arrow?

    1. grumpyman
      • 9 Years

      Small green I'd say. Teeny one.

    2. OldBenKenobi
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I’d say it’s going to be red unless. Salah captainers prevail this week 🙁

      1. GreenArrows
        • 9 Years

        Damn :/ had VC on Salah

        1. OldBenKenobi

    I just don’t get people putting in West Ham and Spurs players now. What’s the rush? It’s pushing their prices to rise and therefore forcing the rest of us to also get them in...

    “Rant over”

    1. I Member

      Quite annoying. Would like to wait until tomorrow's games over. City assets could easily get injured.

    Going Aguero > Kane for -4, worth taking -8 to go Pogba > Sterling/Silva (no city)?

  14. Hansel

    Coutinho -> Alli?

    I'm thinking Morata, Richarlison & RLC -> Quaner, Son & Arnautovic. Thoughts? Suggestions?

    1. The Trout of No Craic
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm keeping Morata for fixtures, Member berries brilliant those Brexit clowns need to watch that

    a) haz silva to son kdb
    b) kenny haz silva -4 to vert arnie/lanzini son/alli/eriksen
    c) christensen silva dcl -4 to vert son quaner

  18. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Either gonna drop Pogba or Silva to bring in Son. Theoretically, I could drop Silva for Son, and since Silva is price dropping, I could bring him in for Pogba the week after and get 0.1 in the bank. The flip side to this is that Silva vs Watford is much more favorable than Pogba vs anyone. What would you guys do?

    1. UshFPL
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Drop Pogba. He's playing too deep.

    2. JM11
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Don't like the look of united attack right now, and Jose has pogba playing way too defensive, no freedom to get forward.

    3. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I would drop Pogba. Waste of FPL apace, imho.

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        On it. Cheers Doos.

    4. Kermit Special
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I had Pogba for 3 GWs. Absolutely awful. Plays too deep and Man Utd look a finished side. Plus Everton are no pushovers. Sell Pogba IMO

    5. ★Kuntheman★
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers all, my 7.9 defensive mid is leaving my team

    Time to get rid of DCL?

    1. ★Kuntheman★
      • 10 Years

      Quaner's my move as soon as the DGW is over

      1. barracuda
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Got him already mate.

    2. Darth_Krid
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yes. Becoming a major fire and very hard to put out at that price.

    3. Give The Todd Some Love
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      All other options are so poor though

      1. barracuda
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Was thinking McBurnie and bank the money

  20. AzzaroMax99
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    58 after bonus, Sterling & RLC to go. After few very bad weeks, finally on green.

    10 men squad wasn't so bad from this point 🙂

    Off topic.

    I'm stuck for things to watch. What's the best new series of 2017?

    1. Red Dagger ✪
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Black Mirror.

      1. AIRMILES
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Good call. I liked the wasp episode in the last series, but otherwise find the episodes longer than they warrant, given they have no subplots.

        Downloading now.

      1. Rik Waller

    Couts to Son or wait until news about Salah?

    1. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      You're not seriously going to sell Salah?

    2. Coaly
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Assume Salah is out

      You’re not going to drop Mo though are you?

    3. Red Dagger ✪
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah probably not.

    4. The Mighty Whites
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Don't sell Salah!

  23. Delph & Safety
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Serves United right. Obviously never good when a player gets injured (ibra), but what were they expecting when they were signing a Man near 40 years old?

    Meanwhile Pep inhereited one of the oldest teams in the league and quickly lowered the average age of the squad, and has now setup a team that is ready to dominate for years to come.

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      But but but ....Pep spent a fortune on all those players unlike Mourinho (if you exclude Pogba and Lukaku)

      1. Delph & Safety
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Yep it doesn’t matter find you have money it’s how you spend it.

  24. Darth_Krid

    So what do people think the max amount of hits is viable this week before it gets daft? -8? -12?

    1. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      -4 max.

      1. The Mighty Whites
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        -4

    2. LǝgleSs e|even

      Willing to go -8, desperately needing to chase with the fruitless WC

  25. Benteke Fried Chicken

    Bad GW. Could have been worse. 44 with Ota and Sterling to go. OR prior to this game: 4k. Going down few thousand places i guess. Team also not good with few dead woods and next gw there will be massive rotation. A bit clueless atm.
