Bruno Fernandes debuts for Man United as Wolves visit Old Trafford

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has thrown Bruno Fernandes (£8.0m) straight into the Manchester United team for Gameweek 25.

The former Sporting midfielder signed for the club earlier this week and looks to be operating in the number 10 role this evening.

Fernandes will support Anthony Martial (£7.9m) from attacking midfield, where he will be flanked by Daniel James (£5.9m) and Juan Mata (£6.2m).

Meanwhile, there was less positive news for those invested in budget left-back Brandon Williams (£4.1m) drops to the bench, with Luke Shaw (£5.4m) handed the nod.

Meanwhile, Wolves are boosted by the return of Willy Boly (£4.7m) at centre-back.

He has been out injured since Gameweek 9 after suffering an ankle fracture, although was named as an unused substitute last time out.

Nuno Espirito Santo has elected not to drop his new signing in at the deep end, Daniel Podence (£5.5m) named on the bench.

That means Wolves front-three still features Diogo Jota (£6.1m) and Adama Traoré (£5.8m) either side of Raùl Jiménez (£7.6m).

Manchester United XI: De Gea; Shaw, Maguire, Lindelöf, Wan-Bissaka; Fred, A Pereira; James, B Fernandes, Mata; Martial.

Wolves XI: Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Boly; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; D Jota, Jiménez, Traoré.

    Team is a bit of a mess, have Vardy, Kelly, Lundstram & Reid. Which one to deal with first?

        How did you get that many Dendonckers?

      Salah 9 deductions 😆

      8 point goal by scoring a deflected rebound ain’t bad.

        Can do no wrong at the moment

        Bobby assist will stand right ?

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

          Looking like it.

          Salah didn’t ‘really’ lose possession... but it’s a dodgy one.

            Lucky one for owners.

      Not doing Mane to Salah was a wise decision.

      53 points and still a red arrow...

        Your rank must be pretty good

          Around was at 19.5k, slipping outside 20k just at the moment. Got a couple of players left.

      2. joelsprylar

        Is that even possible?

    7. DantheManinaPan

      Anyone know what was up with Maupay? Just bad form?

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

        He’ll have to be asked in the presser.

      2. Pinturicchio10
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Seems to be lacking in the ability department.

        What's your thoughts?

        a. Ryan > Henderson
        b. Evans > Stephens

        People went had Firmino and Salah (c) over the last two weeks definitely the winners vs those who had Salah (tc) + Mane

        1. Syd.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          o/

        2. Rainer

          Cheers Sherlock.

        3. Skalla
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Does it count if I had Firmino(c) last week and then transferred him out for Salah(c) this week...

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

          Yep - controversial opinion maybe but those with Firminio over mane basically failed to prepare correctly and have been massively rewarded

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

        Ok my defence needs tweaking, what would you do?
        Rico - Lascelles - TAA - Kelly - Lunds

        Rico, Kelly and Lunds all have issues. What about Boly? But for who?

        1. The Sociologist
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Deal with the ones that aren’t starting 1st. Kelly or Lund our depending on how much money you’ve got tied up.

      6. Rains of Castamere
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Any chance Ings drops in the coming days?

        1. The Train Driver
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          He played really well yet again.

          1. Rains of Castamere
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Yep but I'm 0.1 short of getting him in

        2. Syd.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          No can't see many selling given his fixtures

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

          Hopefully but needs to soon, will start being bought come Monday.

      7. Champ
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Harvey Barnes becoming impossible to ignore now.

      8. GREEN IS GOOD
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Can't afford Lundy to Stevens.

        So other Sheff Utd defender... O.'Connell? Nailed?

        1. how now brown cow
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          He's not missed a single minute this season.

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

          Egan is the one

          1. GREEN IS GOOD
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Cheers. They hsve a lot of defenders!

          C or A. But I’d be looking at a -4 this week to freshen things up in both attack and defence this week.

      10. shirtless
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

        Just had a nap and woke up to find Salah(c) got a second 🙂

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

        Right Bruno show me if you are Maddy’s replacement 😉

      12. Henning
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Who needs to go first.

        Lundstram
        DCL
        Sidibe
        Ryan

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

          Don’t sell players playing Palace.

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

            Lundstram or Ryan then or upgrade Button.

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

              Lundstram, especially if you need a starter.

              Pope in if sick of Ryan.

        2. Chucky
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          lundy

        3. Athletic Nasherbo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Lundstram and Ryan

      13. Chucky
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        looks like salah is going to be perma capped for next few weeks by the top 10k..

        1. Rolls-Royce
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Sonny captain next week 😉

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

          I will be I think.

        3. Syd.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Aguero home to West Ham

          1. Chucky
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            yep plum fixture but not many willing to risk it with pep rotation..

        4. Whats the Huth
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Mane

      14. FDMS All Starz
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Who out is priority? 2FTs....or is a -4 needed?

        A) Mane
        B) Haller
        C) DCL
        D) Lunds
        E) Soy
        F) Ryan

        Ryan
        Taa-Lunds-Soy-Taylor-Cathcart
        Salah-Mane-Kdb-Martial-Romeu
        DCL-Vardy-Haller

        1. Athletic Nasherbo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          If you’ve kept Mane you need to wait.

          If he’s out get rid.

          Haller + Vardy > Ings + Firmino(if Mane out)/Jiménez.

          Mane > Fernandes/Son

          Actually if you have a WC play it. Ryan, Lundstram, Taylor, Romeu and DCL soon will need to go.

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

        Fingers crossed Bruno will be United's David Silva in the coming decade. The first signing Ive actually had belief in for United in years.

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

        Lundy blocking Holgate, why did I swap them 🙁

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

        Gut feeling Lundstram starts next week, hmmm. Think im keeping 4 now

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

          Depends if Besic is back

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

          See below - I’ve got so many fires to put out, the fact he will at least get minutes is good enough for me now!

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

          I have Kelly and Rico to look at as well, Lunds has to be the lowest priority I reckon

      18. TheDragon
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Dendoncker benched - lol my team is in disarray

        Kelly, Lund, Maupay, Dendoncker, Simpson

      19. SomeoneKnows
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        A) Kelly > Stephens
        B) Kelly > Lascelles

        Which one?

        1. james 101
          • 12 Years

          I did A

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

          If nothing crops up I'll likely be doing B. Boly is worth a look if you've got the bunce.

        3. Tonyawesome69
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          A but I plan to have both

      20. james 101
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        A. Mane / DCL - Firmy / Mahrez
        B. Mane / Ings - Firmy / Mahrez

        Or someone other than Mahrez?

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

          Don’t sell Ings.

          Look at his fixtures not past points.

          Long denied him a deserved goal today.

          1. james 101
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            His fixtures are far better than DCLs yes.
