Sánchez earns start for Man United as Rashford shakes off yellow flag

Alexis Sánchez (£10.0m) has come into the Manchester United side for his first start since Gameweek 29.

The Chilean international has been in a front-three, but his position within that is yet to be confirmed with Marcus Rashford (£7.3m) also in the side.

The Englishman had been a fitness doubt ahead of Gameweek 37 but has overcome it, much to the delight of his 21.2% ownership.

Paul Pogba (£8.5m) is the only Manchester United player in more squads for Gameweek 37, so there will be plenty of interest in both of those two.

Meanwhile, his attacking partner Sánchez is one for those chasing extreme deficits in their mini-leagues and overall rankings.

He sits in just 1.2% of teams for the trip to Huddersfield and still remains a risk despite his start. The last time he featured from the beginning, Sánchez lasted just 51 minutes.

Elsewhere in the Manchester United team, there were welcome starts for those invested in their defence.

Luke Shaw (£5.1m) is the most popular, owned by 7.1%, while Victor Lindelöf (£5.2m) features alongside Phil Jones (£5.1m), who overcame a fitness doubt to start.

Meanwhile, Chelsea are also in action at the same time, with Eden Hazard (£10.9m) the most captained player of Sunday’s games.

410,000+ managers have trusted him with the armband after three double-figure hauls in his last four home matches.

He has been stationed on the left of an attacking front-three for Chelsea, with Gonzalo Higuaín (£9.0m) and Pedro (£6.2m) alongside him.

Owners of Chelsea defenders may be a little cautious given that Troy Deeney (£5.8m) is back in the Watford side.

He returns from a three-match suspension to play alongside Gerard Deulofeu (£5.7m) in a front-two, who has six goals and an assist in his last five away matches.

Chelsea XI: Kepa, Azpilicueta, Luiz, Christensen, Alonso, Kante, Jorginho, Kovacic, Hazard, Higuain, Pedro.

Watford XI: Foster, Femenia, Mariappa, Cathcart, Holebas, Doucoure, Hughes, Chalobah, Pereyra, Deulofeu, Deeney.

Huddersfield XI: Lössl; Bacuna, Schindler, Kongolo, Durm; Mbenza, Mooy, Hogg, Löwe; Pritchard; Grant.

Man United XI: De Gea; Shaw, Jones, Lindelöf, Young; Pogba, McTominay, Matic; Rashford, A Sánchez, Mata.

        No idea why they made him a permanent manager it was way too emotional to only give him like 10 easy games them choose him a a a manager

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 2 hours ago

          Sorry I have a stutter

          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Apparently for transfer planning but piss-poor judgment either way

      4. Dthinger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        He shouldn't be. He needs a transfer window and a summer tour to sort out all the BS Mourinho left him.

        1. Dthinger
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years

          Oh- you said by november. Yeah, probably

      5. Yoshioka
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        He'll have the summer and the January window at least. They all knew what this bunch of players was like - the problem was Jose was dealing with it as poorly and pettily as the players in the end.

    6. g40steve
      • 6 Years

      Really need a Shaw A Pogbar G sooooooon

    7. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 2 hours ago

      Slightly disappointed by Haz (c) return, couldve been bigger

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        get real, hes performed way beyond his usual ppm

        1. Bubz
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Did you watch the match?

          1. EMBOLOFAN
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 1 hour ago

            not relevent

              • 10 Years

              😆 how is it not relevant

              1. EMBOLOFAN
                • 5 Years
                5 years, 1 hour ago

                how is it

                1. Bubz
                  • 10 Years
                  5 years, 1 hour ago

                  Reread my original post and figure it out

        2. pingissimus
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Nope

          He’s on average for the last 4 home games. That’s why he was such an obvious pick

      2. FPL DONKEY
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        Well I chose not to bring in Haz for Son (-4)

        Would've been happy with 12 points!

    8. Chucky

      FT.. Hazzo TC fail 🙁

      1. Mo Mané Mo Problems

        hehe

      3. EMBOLOFAN
        • 5 Years

        not at all

      4. Murder On Zidanesfloor
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        It's nowhere near being a fail

      5. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        36 pts is great

      6. SEXY SON
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        36 points TC is not a fail!

      7. _Ninja_
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        Still 36 pts.

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

        How is it a fail?

        He has 9 points already and is on for max BAPs.

        That’s a 36 point haul. Not to be sniffed at on TC chip by any means!

      9. Mysterion
        • 6 Years

        Gonna need a bigger boat

      10. Dthinger

      Well done haz 2 assists all good you have been nice to me this year

    10. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years

      pogba with another shot off target

    11. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 1 hour ago

      Pogba owners, we did warn you.

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        They still have 5 mins for FA united to give them a pen

      2. FPL DONKEY
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        Most people got him for Son. What did Son get again?

    12. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 hour ago

      So many 50/50 moves gone wrong. Shaw instead of Digne or Doherty is one.

    13. Party time
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        Pogba off target

      • Christina.
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        Son to Hazard was so obvious.

        1. La Roja
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Innit blud

        2. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Also unattainable in one move for most.

        3. money face bandwagon
          • 10 Years

          Not sure why more didnt do that tbh.

          I bottled it as it would've been for a hit

          1. FPL DONKEY
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 1 hour ago

            Same

        5. JustPark
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Glad I did.

        6. acidicleo

          salah to haz cap...so wanted a bit more as i wud have capped kun otherwise..!!

      • Dannyb
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        Pogba really isn't as good as he thinks he is.

      • seewhyaxe
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        feels underwhelming.

        thought Hazard could get more

        1. Gudjohnsen
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Don't get greedy

      • FFSbet.com
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        Cmon give Pogba penalty,we need another bar.

      • Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        There is a pathetic culture at United where the players seem to believe they are entitled to win games without putting in any effort. Pogba, Martial, Lingard, Rashford all suffer from this. Rashford has been on his arse whining half the game. No doubt huddersfield have covered more ground today and they had literally nothing to play for.

        1. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          There's another culture where their fans are more interested in whether Liverpool win a title than their own team winning a game.

          1. Brosstan
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 1 hour ago

            An extreme minority but Liverpool fans love pretending its a large group. Probably makes it easier for you to handle missing out on the title yet again.

            1. Dr Van Nostrand
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 1 hour ago

              Atleast LFC are in with a shout and on the up. At this rate United will never be again

        2. EMBOLOFAN
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          not sure they feel entitled to wins, feels more like they dont particularly care either way

          1. JustPark
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 1 hour ago

            Same thing.

      • Mo Mané Mo Problems
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        I’d give my left kidney for a last minute Pogbar penalty miss.

        1. Richd
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          I’m in. Let’s do this

      • acidicleo
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 hour ago

        is eden keeping 3 baps? luiz cs points added?

        1. SPorting
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Haz will lose all those baps after winning goal etc. is added.

        2. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          6 clear so probably keeps them.

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

          Looks that way.

        4. The Ejiptian King
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          He always keeps 3.

          • 14 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Luiz 3 Hazard 2 it seems.

          1. Hazz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 1 hour ago

            Oh...

          2. Murder On Zidanesfloor
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 1 hour ago

            He is 6 in the clear...why do you say so?

            1. TorresMagic™

                Are you happy with that TM? I TC and I feel ok but could have been more!

                  5 years, 1 hour ago

                  Meh, beats a fail.
                  Pretty much took a hit for Hazard(c) selling Eriksen, Gray and Vert in the process.

                  1. FPL Pillars
                    • 7 Years
                    5 years, 1 hour ago

                    cant Really grumble with a double figure haul I guess, I still have Gray, Son... team is a bit of a mess... so glad this turn is the end lol. Not sure who to target now, Wilson looks a decent shout.

      • money face bandwagon
        • 10 Years

        Pogba yellow/red card please

        2. SPorting

          5 years, 1 hour ago

          Chong plays like a bloke who bought a replica kit and sneaked on to the pitch.

          1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
            • 12 Years

            He’s a kid. Relax.

              hes a "professional footballer"

            2. SPorting
              • 12 Years
              5 years, 1 hour ago

              He’s been rubbish.

                • 12 Years
                5 years, 1 hour ago

                So fitted in well with the rest of the MUN team today.

                Cannot see the play with that mop on his head.

                  • 6 Years
                  5 years, 1 hour ago

                  No peripheral vision!

        3. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 1 hour ago

          I suppose there are worse hauls for TC than two assists and three BAPs but still feels kinda meh.

          1. SPorting
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 1 hour ago

            Meh

            Not just utd that feel entitled then ...

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

              Not sure what this has to do with entitlement tbh. Just a comment on that I might have been better off being a bit more selective with the chip before and not waiting until the bitter end.

              1. EMBOLOFAN
                • 5 Years
                5 years, 1 hour ago

                7 years a member here and you're disappointed when your TC doubles their average ppm

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

                  Was my last chance to catch up in my ML. Another attacking return and I might have been in with a shout.

            Especially when he could have had a penalty, another assist from Giroud missing a sitter and 2 crazy good chances from 10 yards out at the death that he dribbled into trouble. Should really have got another attacking return.

            Only because of what Salah did last weekend. But 36 points on TC chip is by no means Meh.

            People triple capped Raz on 2 different DGW and both times they got less than what Haz is going to get.

            It’s a good haul for a TC on a single gameweek.

              I TC Sané on a DGW and got 3 points. At the end of that game week I would have been happy with 6.

              Salah, Aguero in the DGW... There were others. I’m just going to go earlier next season. Remember the first and only (so far, as I’ve skipped seasons) time I played it before, I got an assist from Martial on the last day of the season. So yeah, this time is at least better than that one was.

              33, as well, not 36 as it apparently turns out.
