Will Man United rediscover form for upcoming appealing fixtures?

385 Comments
Share

Fantasy Premier League managers have been, understandably, completely put off Manchester United assets of late.

The Red Devils’ recent poor form was perfectly encapsulated in a Gameweek 8 defeat to Newcastle before the international break and they host Liverpool next.

However, those with half an eye on the Season Ticker will notice that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men are about to embark on a favourable run of fixtures.

In the interest of getting ahead of the game, we’ve had a look to see if there are any hidden gems within Manchester United’s out-of-form squad.

As this article uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area, only those who have signed up for the 2019/20 season can access it in full.

How strong is their goal threat?

      picked it up off his GK just inside the defensive third, dribbled past three, rainbow flicked it over the centre back and caught it on the volley. The shot cannoned back off the underside of the crossbar, so he bicycle kicked it home for the goal .

            Hmm, I’m considering benching Ota for him at the weekend. Good fixture and set pieces. I know he has competition with Kelly but thought he had secured the place in the short term. Where did you hear about the fans not liking him? He got player of month in September.

      I’m very hesitant to take out Pukki. He’s likely to blank at Bournemouth but then he has Utd at home which is the kind of game he’s been hauling in. Then he has WAT at home coming up. King better option for this week but don’t think I’ll go for it.

        Agree I’m keeping for a while yet with bigger issues. Good fixture this week and then a couple of games which look good on paper. Still scored 6 goals this season and I got at 6.6 so great value.

    Would you change anything with one FT? 0.0 in the bank.
    Few injury doubts, particularly Heaton which would be annoying if he’s out.
    Bit of a benching headache with Zinchenko probably starting at Palace and Rico also with good potential this week.
    Thinking probably Salah to Mane to free up cash for McGinn to CHO next week.
