Mousset benched as Carroll gets his first league start of the season

Gameweek 15 comes to a head this evening with matches at Bramall Lane and the Emirates.

Sheffield United take on Newcastle United in the 19:30 GMT kick-off, while Arsenal v Brighton and Hove Albion gets underway at 20:15 GMT.

The headline team news from South Yorkshire sees Chris Wilder make two changes to his starting XI, as the Blades boss revisits his rotation policy up front.

Unfortunately for the most-bought Fantasy Premier League asset of this Gameweek, that means a benching for Lys Mousset (£5.1m).

David McGoldrick (£5.4m) is also among the substitutes as Billy Sharp (£5.6m) and Oli McBurnie (£5.7m) are given a chance to impress in attack.

John Lundstram (£5.1m) keeps up his ever-present record as Wilder continues to keep changes to a minimum in his defence and midfield.

Steve Bruce’s only alteration to his team also comes up front, with Andy Carroll (£5.7m) making his first league start of 2019/20 at the expense of Joelinton (£5.4m).

This fixtures sees the joint-first and third-highest-scoring sub-£5.0m FPL defenders go head to head, as George Baldock (£4.7m) comes up against Jetro Willems (£4.6m).

Eight points or more for Lundstram would put him back to the top of the FPL points-scoring list outright among players in his position.

Freddie Ljungberg has made three changes from Gameweek 14, with Hector Bellerin (£5.4m), Sokratis (£4.9m) and Lucas Torreira (£4.7m) replacing Calum Chambers (£4.4m), Shkodran Mustafi (£5.2m) and Matteo Guendouzi (£4.6m).

Brighton’s team shows two alterations, with Neal Maupay (£5.8m) and Steven Alzate (£4.5m) in for Yves Bissouma (£5.0m) and Martin Montoya (£4.5m).

Just over 100,000 FPL managers bought Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.9m) ahead of Gameweek 15.

He is also the third-most-popular captaincy option of this set of fixtures.

Sheffield United XI: Henderson, Basham, Baldock, O’Connell, Egan, Stevens, Fleck, Lundstram, Norwood, Sharp, McBurnie.

Newcastle United XI: Dubravka, Manquillo, Clark, Fernandez, Dummett, Willems, Saint-Maximin, Hayden, Shelvey, Almiron, Carroll.

Arsenal XI: Leno, Bellerin, David Luiz, Sokratis, Kolasinac, Torreira, Xhaka, Willock, Ozil, Aubameyang, Lacazette.

Brighton XI: Ryan, Alzate, Dunk, Webster, Burn, Stephens, Propper, Gross, Mooy, Maupay, Connolly.

    Is there any chance Mane is rested for the next game? Liverpool have huge game in CL next week

    That in mynd, best option for captain

    A) Vardy
    B) Son
    C) Tammy

    1. I Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Definitely a chance.

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Could very well be. Son as Tammy could also be rested

        Tottenham dont have anything to play in CL tho.. they are through already.. Chelsea needs the win so there is a big chance Tamny is rested tbf

    3. acidicleo
      • 7 Years

    4. JustPark
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      He benched Salah already. He definitely can afford to bench Mane.

  3. acidicleo

    Mount to :

    A) Alli (-4)
    B) Pulisic

    2. fr3d
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

  9. JustPark

    A goal and YC. That's all I'm asking of you tonight, Lunds.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Regression?

      1. circusmonkey
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        He will regress but still not worth selling him.

        1. TheDragon
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          *has regressed

    2. sirmorbach
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Why would you want a YC?

    3. kamdaraji
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      why a YC?

      1. JustPark
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        He's on 4 already. Rather get it out now than later. Need him in 17 and 18.

  10. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Connolly's quick, fast & he's got pace.

    1. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Reminds me of a young Aguero.

      1. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        If we even got half the player Aguero is... 🙂

  11. Free Hat
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    What a difference a manager makes.
    Watching Brighton now vs last year.

  12. sirmorbach
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Steve Bruce is actually doing quite well if you ask me.

    1. Flynny
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Agree

    2. BIG TONES
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Definitely. If they could score a few more goals they would be in the top half

    3. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Quite well for a butcher

  13. rokonto
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    1. kamdaraji
      • 14 Years

    2. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      1. rokonto
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I was wondering if it's Shearer?

  15. Gudjohnsen

      4 years, 4 months ago

      yes

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

    3. BIG TONES
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Has been the whole season lol. It's definitely the players, not the coach.

  16. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    O Connell wasting Lundstram assist...

  17. Peter Ouch
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Where did this McBurnie thing came from?

    Dear God I investment in Mousset instead of Rashford went terrible

    3. George Sillett
      • 8 Years

    1. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

    2. dansmusen
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Tielemans so unlucky not to get an assist last game. Vardy missed sitter from him.

  24. Free Hat
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    One thing lacking with Brighton is an attacking mid with a great final ball.
    And yet they keep a Trossard on the bench.

  25. Chucky
    • 10 Years
