Rashford plays down injury worries after latest FPL double-digit haul

We continue our round-up of the Gameweek 22 matches with a look at what happened from a Fantasy perspective at Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge.

Manchester United 4-0 Norwich City

  • Goals: Marcus Rashford (£9.2m) x2, Anthony Martial (£7.9m), Mason Greenwood (£4.3m)
  • Assists: Juan Mata (£6.2m) x2, Brandon Williams (£4.0m)
  • Bonus: Rashford x3 Mata x2 Williams x1

Marcus Rashford (£9.2m) marked his 200th game for Manchester United with a fourth double-digit haul of the season as Norwich City were swept away at Old Trafford.

The striker scored a goal in each half as his 30.2% Fantasy Premier League (FPL) ownership continued to reap the benefits of his fine form – he’s now scored four times in as many Gameweeks.

Rashford opened the scoring when he converted a Juan Mata (£6.2m) cross before he doubled United’s advantage from the penalty spot after Brandon Williams (£4.0m) was brought down by Canaries keeper Tim Krul (£4.5m).

The only potential downside to his day came when he was substituted after 58 minutes, with manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer saying that “he is struggling a little bit so we took him off”.

But the player himself later confirmed on social media that the move was more about staying fit for his side’s FA Cup replay with Wolves in midweek, saying:

Just a precaution and looking forward to getting back at it Wednesday.

Mata earned his second assist when Anthony Martial (£7.9m) headed home his cross, a finish that meant the France international matched Rashford’s fine goalscoring record over the last four league matches.

Substitute Mason Greenwood (£4.3m) then rounded off the rout to make it three goals from the last five games for the young striker, only one of which has involved a place in the starting line-up.

Consistency remains an issue for Solskjaer’s side, although they have at least started to see off supposedly lesser teams in recent weeks, but Norwich’s notoriously leaky defence is not the benchmark required to judge the overall improvement of this young United outfit.

Next week’s trip to Liverpool certainly is, and it’s a fixture that ushers in a tough run involving away matches at Chelsea, Everton and Spurs and visits from Manchester City, Sheffield United and Watford.

All of that has not dissuaded Fantasy managers from buying into Rashford, who is in the top three for transfers-in ahead of that Anfield clash.

Investing in a defence with two clean sheets from the last three Gameweeks is proving less tempting, but the rise of youngster Williams offers a cut-price way into that backline, with the added bonus of potential attacking returns as well – only Martial and Rashford had more attempts than the left-back on Saturday.

The key question is whether Williams can now hold down a regular starting spot. Solskjaer was certainly not ruling out that possibility in his post-match praise for the 19-year-old:

We want to get to a place where players understand that, if I play well, I’ll keep my place. If I don’t, there’s competition behind us. There’s good competition there now (at left-back) and Brandon has never let us down. Another excellent performance by him.

If United’s final position in the league is still unclear at present, Norwich are now looking nailed-on to finish bottom.

With Teemu Pukki (£6.5m) out of form and injured (although expected to be back in Gameweek 23), their one Fantasy asset worth considering remains Todd Cantwell (£4.9m), who came closest to scoring for the visitors when his fine shot was expertly saved by David de Gea (£5.4m).

The fact that the United keeper ended up producing more stops than his Norwich counterpart said it all – the home side were ruthless, the visitors wasteful.

Either way, there’s little to tempt managers into buying Canaries assets, especially with Liverpool, Leicester and Spurs to come over the next six Gameweeks.

Manchester United XI (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Williams; Fred, Matic; Mata, Pereira (Greenwood 71′), Rashford (James 59′); Martial (Gomes 80′).

Norwich City XI (4-2-3-1): Krul; Aarons, Hanley (Lewis 81′), Zimmerman, Byram; Tettey, Vrancic (Amadou 65′); Cantwell, McLean, Buendia; Idah (Hernandez 65′).

Chelsea 3-0 Burnley

  • Goals: Jorginho (£4.9m), Tammy Abraham (£7.8m), Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.3m)
  • Assists: Reece James (5.0m), Willian (£7.2m), Cesar Azpilicueta (£5.8m)
  • Bonus:  Azpilicueta x3, James x2, Jorginho x1

Chelsea bounced back from a three-match winless run with a regulation victory over struggling Burnley.

Goals from Jorginho (£4.9m), Tammy Abraham (£7.8m) and Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.3m) didn’t flatter the Blues, who had eight shots on target to the visitors’ one.

Hudson-Odoi’s strike, from a Cesar Azpilicueta (£5.8m) assist, was his first Premier League goal for Chelsea and with just 0.5% FPL ownership, the young winger could be a major differential candidate if he can build on that landmark.

His manager, Frank Lampard, was certainly happy to praise him post-match:

For Callum to score in the six-yard box is more exciting than him scoring from 30 yards. It means he is willing to get in there. It wasn’t the only time he did that. His overall performance was a statement of what he has to do. That was the real Callum. If he carries on like that we will have a real player.

The one rider when it comes to investment in any of Chelsea’s players involves their immediate schedule, however.

Lampard’s side travel to Newcastle next before embarking on a brutal four-Gameweek run involving Arsenal, Leicester, Manchester United and Spurs, although the only away fixture in that quartet will be at the King Power Stadium.

At least Abraham will head into all of that with his return to form gathering pace. He produced an attacking return for the third straight Gameweek – two goals and an assist – when Burnley keeper Nick Pope (£4.6m) failed to deal with his header.

Reece James (£5.0m) set up the goal and he and fellow defender Azpilicueta dominated the bonus point standings as the Blues kept their first clean sheet since Gameweek 18.

A tendon injury ruled out Christian Pulisic (£7.0m). The American has been in the thoughts of many Fantasy managers this season, while his team-mate Willian (£7.2m) has spent much of the campaign under the radar.

The Brazilian was brought down for the penalty kick converted by Jorginho, making it two assists from the last three matches for the winger. He also scored twice to bring in 16-point haul against Spurs in Gameweek 18 and is now seven points clear at the top of the team’s midfield scoring charts in FPL.

That nasty upcoming schedule will persuade only the bravest to tap into Chelsea’s stars, while Burnley’s wretched form means investment in their players would be an act of desperation.

Sean Dyche’s side have now lost four straight matches in the league, scoring just the once along the way, and they’ll be facing Leicester, Manchester United, Arsenal and the in-form Southampton over the next four fixtures.

The manager knows just what is needed to revive their fortunes.

We have to fight for everything. We have always had to do that. The confidence gets sucked out of players if they are not winning. We are trying to revive that.

But until that revival kicks in – if it does at all – their players look off-limits, with even the popular Pope (13.0%) shipping managers in seven of the last eight Gameweeks.

On the injury front, Dyche explained:

Jay Rodriguez is ill. Bardo only trained yesterday morning after four days of illness. Barnesy we will find out more about [this week]. Johann [Berg Gudmundsson] is settling down his hamstring and we are not sure on that one, we will have to wait and see. Robbie [Brady], calf, so he will probably be back on the grass hopefully this week.

N’Golo Kante (£5.0m) missed out for Chelsea, meanwhile, with Lampard saying:

It was something that came up last night. It was more of an awareness in the hamstring as opposed to a moment where he had to pull up. That makes you hope that it’s a small thing but we’ll have to see how it goes.

Chelsea XI (4-2-3-1): Kepa; James, Rudiger, Christensen, Azpilicueta; Barkley, Jorginho; Hudson-Odoi, Mount, Willian; Abraham.

Burnley XI (4-4-1-1): Pope; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor; Lennon, Westwood, Cork, McNeil; Hendrick (Vydra 73′); Wood.

    This look ok to go next week and carry transfer into week 24? 0 m in bank - defence becoming a concern with Rico dropped, Kelly likely to be dropped soon, Lundstram had couple of poorer games and Söyüncü/Leicester conceding more with Ndidi out.

      Lundstram looks good mate dont worry about that, almost scored v WHU... still one of the better defenders...

      Good team, not sure Aguero will start though could be rotated out but you have cover... DCL over Cantwell perhaps?

      1. dunas_dog

        Thanks- feel Cantwell v Bournemouth could be good but might well go with DCL. Aguero captain gamble worked this week and got me 200K plus rank rise to 283K so going to push one more week before he goes for Ings to get funds for Mané or Robertson ( undecided)

    Thanks to Rashford captain I’ve managed 14 green arrows in a row since end of GW9. Managed to go from 1.6m to 25k! Best run of form I’ve ever had since playing the game I think.

        Cheers mate. Pretty buzzing about it to be honest.

        Had been struggling a bit early in the season despite a strong GW1. Got to be aiming for another top 10k finish now after this spell.

    2. FCSB

      well done!

        Cheers pal! Hopefully keep it up...although next week may be tough to maintain it with three Liverpool players & Rashford.

    Crazy to double up on shu def against ars?

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      No with Auba out
      Though I think Lundstram may not start

      1. School of Poch
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Why might he not start?

      2. FCSB
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        why wouldnt he start... bought off early v WHU and no midweek game meaning more rest than all prem clubs

        1. Sun Jihai
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Did you see him play and how well Besic played when he came on
          Just got a feeling that Besic could start one

          1. School of Poch
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            I thought he played well... lost interest after he was subbed so didn't see much of Besic

          2. Brosstan
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Lundstram has been one of Sheffield's best players over the entire season. He wont get dropped just because he had one sub par game.

  5. School of Poch
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Probably going to save this week but what looks like a better plan with 2FT for GW24?

    Gazza/Button
    Robbo/Soy/Lund/Kelly/Rico
    Mane/KDB/Maddi/Grealish/Cantwell
    Vardy/Rashford/Ings

    1FT 3.0ITB

    A: Rashford/Grealish > Salah/DCL
    B: Maddi/Grealish > Salah/Dendoncker
    C: Soy >TAA

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      c

      1. School of Poch
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Seems to be the most popular pick so far from people I've asked. Why do you think the defensive double up is better?

    2. CC22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I did basically the second one, but Alli instead of Grealish and less money in the bank. Think it’s fine when considering playing Cantwell 23 and then downgrading one of Salah/Mane straight after 24. Plan originally was to get rid of Rashford but he passed the eye test emphatically when I was watching Match of the Day yesterday!

      1. School of Poch
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah my initial plan was A but Rashford changed my mind too. C seems to be the most popular option but a Mane/Salah double up feels better than a defensive double up for me - only other option is to ditch Vardy ahead of the tough fixture run but that's a dangerous move

        1. CC22
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Very similar decision to what I had. In the end, Cantwell’s GW23 fixture allowed me to justify it in my head! And like you say Salah & Mane appealed more than getting Robbo alongside Trent due to their points ceiling.

          1. School of Poch
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            I think either way the wise thing to do is save the transfer this week and reconsider the same moves with 2FT. I've got 0.4 leeway so hopefully price changes wont affect it. It'll be Cantwell's GW24 that is more important. His fixtures aren't great but he could always snatch a goal and has a decent record against the top teams

  6. Firminooooo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Was planning to sell Aguero to fond triple Liverpool but for some reason have second thoughts. Can do Martial and Soy to Traore and Robertson. Or just Soy to Gomez. 0.6 ITB

    Clear Vardy captain this week.

    1. FCSB

      why so clear?

      1. JJeyy
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Burnley defensive stats are poor in recent weeks and lei away attacking stats very good

      Also,

        Vardy clearly above

        1. g40steve
          • 6 Years

          KDB & Salah at home as well.

    3. Nabs Kebabs

      KDB #1

    4. Brosstan

      Only if Ndidi is back

    5. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Aguero home to Palace?

  8. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    interesting that more are transferring DCL out than there are transferring in

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      That's what a 1 pointer does
      A lot of switches to Ings

  9. g40steve

    4 years, 2 months ago

    GTG?

    McCarthy
    Trent, Soy, Robbo,
    Salah, KDB C, Maddison, Martial
    Vardy, Ings, Rashford

    Martin, Lundstram, Traore, Rico,

    .3 bank.

    Salah to rise tonight? anyone considering de bruyne to Salah/Mane? Fixtures swing a bit for city, forced to play deeper with Jesus/Mahrez form and probable blank wk 28. Currently doing martial to salah but I’d like to keep him for Burnley home gwk after next.

    1. CC22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Find another way to get Salah/Mane in. Definitely wouldn’t recommend dropping KDB - he’s a rank killer, and no doubt you’ll have value tied up in him.

      1. DandyDon
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yes this to. Just wondering if others for considering taking a chance here. Will have to move martial on

  11. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
    • 6 Years

    The Bournemouth manager looks like Beavis or Butthead.

    I can't remember which one though.

  12. Sterling Malory
    • 8 Years

    Really struggling to decide how best to use my 2 FT's here. Not sure what my priority should be?
    Pope, Kelly or Zaha out?
    Find a way to get Aguero or Salah in?
    Any suggestions welcome after a disappointing gameweek..

    Pope
    TAA Soyuncu Lundstram

      1.5m in the bank btw...

    2. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years

      Zaha, Rico to Fleck/Cantwell, Robo for me.

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Maybe doucoure

    3. FCSB
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Martial (or Zaha) and Jimi out...

    4. DT42
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Martial and Zaha to Sarah and Dendonca?

      1. DT42
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        You might need to downgrade Pope to afford this (maybe to McCarthy?) but it’s worth it for double Liv mids over the next 6-weeks

            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years

            Cech is correct.
            Aguero is 2nd for forwards.

        2. g40steve
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Suarez

      Oh dear. I'll struggle as I was 5 when it started.

      Tryna think of players who have been around for a while, Aguero, Terry, Lampard maybe, Hart have to be on there? Probs none lol

    3. Nabs Kebabs

        Maybe Rooney insead of Aguero?

          Rooney is correct. He has 300 more than Aguero.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            300?! Surprised at that! Is he top scorer overall then?

                • 12 Years
                4 years, 2 months ago

                Terry must have been close to Baines?

                1. TorresMagic™

    Crazy that Salah, Mane and Firmino have only ever scored 2 goals collectively Vs Man Utd in 23 combined games
    Meanwhile Rashford and Martial have scored 5 Vs Liverpool

    1. Hy liverpool

      Shaqiri 2 in 1 has to be better than our trio then

      United save their best performance for Liverpool like Liverpool once did when they were in the position United is now in.

    Man United are the only team to have taken points off Liverpool this season. Silly suggestion to sell Man Utd assets before the next game.

      I am bringing in salah for martial for week 24 anyway. No way I can justify not bring him in for this game a week early when he is the home player. Not to mention liverpool are a lot better!

      yep

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Not certain about Bou yet, when in form they have the quality needed imo.

      1. Pigeon
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        They haven't improved the defence at all, they were bound to go down eventually.

      2. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        they have the quality but its not working, they can maybe stay up if they replace Howe soon. But if they hang onto him out of Nostalgia then he will be taking them back down the leagues lol

  21. Pigeon
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Thoughts on these transfers?

    Vardy, Maupay, Alli and Targett -> Agüero, Ings, Doucoure and VvD

    1. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Vardy out could hurt you very bad

      1. Pigeon
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I definitely don't have to do Vardy to Agüero but its interesting

        1. st4rty
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          It's interesting because Aguero just scored 3. Vardy brace v Aguero blank/bench next GW, etc.

          Seems very kneejerky.

          1. Pigeon
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Yes and no to it being kneejerky, his scoring rate has been impressive as ever

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Bit dodgy for a +8
      Maupay has the worst defence in the league next

      1. Pigeon
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Not minus 8, I'm spreading the transfers out

    3. Nabs Kebabs
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      points chasing

      1. Pigeon
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I think only Agüero is points chasing tbh

    4. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Fine LAST week.

    5. Nabs Kebabs
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Alli definitely has to go, probably Targett too. But no reason to sell Vardy or Maupay

      1. Pigeon
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I'm spreading the transfers out, I probably should have mentioned that, I'd be doing Targett and Alli out this week. If Agüero is still on the table, Doucoure is the mid I'm getting, if not then Richarlison

      2. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Maupay could perhaps go, decent fixtures though. Kun is chasing last week points. The last one was a gift from Villa.

    Yes or no

    1. Sun Jihai

      Not keen on FAnderson

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Should get 4 pts gw24?

    2. Pep Roulette

      Why would you lose Deeney?

    3. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      No

    4. fplking14
      • 9 Years

      Put Richarlison or Maddison if money isn't an issue, if it is put Sarr, Doucoure or Fleck.

  26. fplking14

    Deeney or DCL ( I have Richarlison)

    1. sthelenslad92
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      DCL

    2. Pigeon

      Maupay

      1. fplking14

        Form over fixtures for me Maupay has better fixtures but both DCL and Deeney in better form.

  28. Brosstan
    • 9 Years

    Thoughts on dumping Vardy? Im tired of having a player in my team that I always have to hope does poorly because Im not capping him..

    1. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Would be for Firmino for the double, and then probably Rashford long term after that.

      1. danlynch13
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        It is boring owning him now tbh

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

      In the same boat tbh, I'm getting bored having to make boring transfers and not doing anything to get ahead of my rivals

    3. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Nah, his ownership is too high still. When he drops you can do it. Who you going to move him to? Rashford, Jimi? Might as well just stick.

      Only player it could be considered for is Kun maybe. But is the risk of rotation worth it, plus you potneitally losing massive value in Vardy if you want to buy him back. Im only going to lose Vardy when im sure I wont want him back

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years

      Get rid of KDB too?

      1. Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        KDB points was positive at the OR Im at :p

    5. DandyDon
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Might downgrade to Ings to give me a 4th high value midfielder. Only got cantwell and dendonker currently and feel like I either have to play 4 at back or there is a player like cantwell this week who is not the best option.

  29. danlynch13

      Yes

    McCarthy (Martin)

    Aguero - Ings (Ayew)

    1. danlynch13

      Chasing points imo with aguero and mahrez

      1. Andy Mac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Both explosive and can handle the occasional benching plus great differentials currently. Chasing those green arrows! 😉
