Dugout Discussion – Saturday

A stalemate at Turf Moor leads us into five afternoon kick-offs with Old Trafford undoubtedly the focus of our attention.

Manchester United host Huddersfield Town with the opportunity to close the gap at the top, as Alexis Sanchez is handed his home debut.

Signed by 56,000 ahead of today’s deadline, the Chilean is captained by 85,000 of his 271,000 owners for the meeting with the Terriers.

The big team news is that both Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial are dropped from Jose Mourinho’s starting line-up. Owned by 911,000 and 297,000 respectively, they were the two most signed United assets ahead of Gameweek 26. Juan Mata is recalled to the XI, while Scott McTominay gets a start.

Elsewhere Callum Wilson goes into his home meeting with Stoke City as the second most signed player having picked up 224,000 new owners. He boasts four goals and two assists from his last six Gameweeks.

Meanwhile, Leicester City – without Riyad Mahrez – face Swansea City at the King Power Stadium and field a very attacking line-up. Claude Puel hands Fousseni DiabatΓ© a Premier League debut, while Kelechi Iheanacho earns a first start since Gameweek 8.

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

    5. Zilla
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Got up to 7.1 to spend on a midfielder (Got Salah, Sterling and Walcott alread), who'd you go for?

      1. PocketZola
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Grob

        1. Zilla
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 2 months ago

          Brighton fixtures are everything but pretty, would you still go for it?

      2. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Gross

        1. Zilla
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 2 months ago

          Would you still go despite the fixtures?

        1. Zilla
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 2 months ago

          The Kane Kun duo is hefty so can't upgrade Quaner to anyone that you mentioned. Nice idea tho, would have probably done that

      1. Epic Fail
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

      3. Dacra
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Kane goal without bps and Salah 2 pointer and you tie.

        I'd say Salah wins this.

    12. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years

      Lingard to wally the way to go?

      1. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Both crap IMO. Above average players who go on hot streaks. Like Josh King 2016/17

        1. Epic Fail
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 2 months ago

          I enjoyed those Josh King points.

      2. Epic Fail
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        I'd be looking at keeping Lingard if I could. Seems his place isn't under threat and he still gets forward. But if no other way to get Walcott then yeah.

        1. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 2 months ago

          I could loose shaqiri

        6 years, 2 months ago

        Theo Walcott as high as a kite (FPL price prediction wise)

        Even a blank and Injury today will not prevent a price rise tonight.

      1. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Coleman hadn't played in a very long time. Really surprising he can't play twice in 4 days?
