Man United options return ahead of Double Gameweeks

Manchester United have been boosted by the return of several midfield options for their FA Cup clash with Wolves.

Both teams already know their Blank Gameweek fate for the rest of the season as they were due to meet in Gameweek 33 anyway.

Therefore, this particular FA Cup tie will have no immediate effect on the upcoming Fantasy Premier League schedule.

However, it does appear to have put a few Manchester United options back into consideration for the upcoming Double Gameweeks.

Jesse Lingard (£6.7m) and Ander Herrera (£5.0m) are back in the midfield to ease Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s concerns in that position.

The former could end up as an interesting differential for Gameweek 32 with a good performance at Wolves, while Herrera could help further unlock Paul Pogba‘s (£8.9m) potential after a recent dip.

Meanwhile, Juan Mata (£6.1m) is back on the bench.

However, there is no Romelu Lukaku (£10.8m) who picked up a foot injury in the week.

As for Wolves, it’s just one change for Nuno who brings John Ruddy (£4.2m) in for Rui Patricio (£4.5m).

That means that despite being available for the game, Ryan Bennett (£4.2m) is named on the bench, while Romain Saïss (£4.2m) keeps his place in the back-three.

Wolves XI: Ruddy; Boly, Coady, Saïss; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Dendoncker, Doherty; Jota, Jiménez.

Manchester United XI: Romero; Shaw, Smalling, Lindelöf, Dalot; Pogba, Matic, Herrera; Martial, Rashford, Lingard.

    I think I've Just made a big mistake. I just made a transfer but will be playing my FH for gw32 but I've realised the transfer I've made in will not be playing in gw33 and the player I transfered out is. Now if I do my FH will the original transfer stand or do I get back the player i transfered out back in gw33 ? Thanks.

    Best 3 Man U for 32? Free hit

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years

      None

    2. Differentiator

    3. Dannyb

    4. Tsparkes10

      Pogba and Lukaku for me

      1. Shineonme
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I think I agree

      2. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Lukaku doesn’t have the fitness to play both games

    5. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Pogba
      Lukaku
      DDG or Lindelöf

  8. tucaoneo
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    If Wolves are in FA Cup SF, surely Jimenez will be rotated in gw 32.

    1. MTPockets
        5 years, 1 month ago

        It's a concern

      • Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        probably. damn shame...

    2. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 8 Years

      So probs been asked but which big teams likely have the double next Gameweek?

      1. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Not confirmed, but probably:

        Man City, Man Utd, Chelsea, Wolves

    3. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Shame that Wolves lot may well be rested in DGWs if they go thru in FA cup.

      Did Wolves play like this in the Championship ? Leicester like when they won the league

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Yup. They stormed the championship. Quite scary tbh

      2. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Yes.

        Just like Newcastle the year before, both were Premier League teams playing in the Championship.

        How the hell my QPR beat Wolves last season is a mystery that may never be solved!

        1. Tsparkes10
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          As did we ;). Cody our old player got sent off early on hehe.

        Animals

    5. Werner Bremen
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Who would be the best City defender to get for gw 32?

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Ederson, Sterling, Aguero 😉

        1. OldBenKenobi
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          That’s my plan

      2. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Laporte, more upside than Ederson

        1. Werner Bremen
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          I love him, but would he play?

          1. Tsparkes10
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            Can't be sure. Especially if Stones and Kompany are back

      3. Pompel
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Mendy's back soon, no?

    6. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      So what other matches will be added to GW32?

    7. OldBenKenobi
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      What does it take for Southampton to have a double in GW32?

      1. FPL Forward Thinker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Watford v Fulham to be 35 and Watford v Southampton to be 32
        That’s what.

        I actually think Soton will be 35 and Fulham in 32

    9. Tsparkes10

      Jota and Jiminez essential

      1. Salah’s Sonnet

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years

      2. Shineonme
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Haha he is very chunky for a pro footballer I must admit

      Probably means heavy rotation though.

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Not necessarily. Jota and Jimi played most games

        1. how now brown cow
