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.

    I don’t think I’ve ever watched a Newcastle game where they aren’t parking the bus for 90 minutes.. horrible team to watch. Pukki should’ve had a hattrick though!

      Gulp.

      I would never willingly watch a Newcastle match. It makes their defenders good cheap picks though.

        Haha I watched some of Liverpool and some of Norwich.

      wait until we're pumped full of dirty Saudi money, will be much more fun

    All set for the Fernandes bandwagon!

    1. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Just the wrong team

    2. g40steve

      Yep, Maddison replacement in waiting.

      no confirmation on price yet? can't see him

      1. Freshy

        4 years, 1 month ago

        click page 2

  3. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Why didn’t I just captain Salah... not feeling confident with Auba anymore.
    Still I’ll take 45 points so far

    1. Champions League Varane
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Me too!

      Annoying but,the game still has to be played!

    2. elchilangles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      same, I was on Salah until I watched the scoutcast and changed it to Aguero!

  4. Kaiser123
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Grealish might be a goner for me. Either Traore or Barnes me thinks.

    1. elchilangles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      was thinking the same

  5. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Hopefully Bruno can re-pay my faith in him!

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

      He usually ends up getting floored

  6. Amey
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Double up on Fernandez will be the next Bandwagon !!

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Am actually considering that, but Boly and Aurier also tempting me

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Nice

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Fernandez worth the 0.2m over Lascelles?

      1. Over Midwicket
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Based on today's result, yes. Lol.

      2. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I've gone for Lascells.
        Needed ££ on WC so ...
        If you have ££ definitely go for Fernandez. He's a. Goal threat too

  7. Woy_is_back

    2. g40steve

  8. sunzip14

  9. Ze_Austin

    Nice to see Samatta score 🙂

    1. Skalla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Would have been nicer with a Grealish assist 🙂

      1. Peter Ouch
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

  10. Danno - Emre Canada
    • 9 Years

    Somebody needs an Auba hattrick hmmm

  11. I SPEAK ENGELS AND DRINK GI…
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    This is a hot topic I would assume..

    Who is the best Sheffield defender replacing the Lord?

    A) Baldock
    B) Stevens
    C) O'Connell
    D) Egan
    E) Basham

    1. Woy_is_back
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      C based on today's results.

    3. Krafty Werks
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      B

  12. Railwayman

    How did Grealish look today, any good ?

    1. MSTRKRFTSMN
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No idea but he finished 4th in BP rankings

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Could / should have had at least 1

    3. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      If you like blondes who show off their legs, yes.

    4. Skalla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Good again and hit the post

    5. Railwayman
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      So he played good, but unlucky today, shame.

    6. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      You'll never get consistent points from a relegation side player.

  13. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years

    Cmon Martial. Make your case to stay in the WC team over Son

  14. TheDragon
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Henderson 28% owned in the top 10k - embarrassing

    If you ever wanted evidence that anyone can make top 10k as a one off that is it

    1. Taffer
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      ???

    2. FPL.team
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Why? He's a top goalkeeper.

    3. Kun Tozser
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Nothing casual about owning the highest scoring keeper in the game

    4. Kun Tozser
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Casual to assume it is Jordan mind 😉

    5. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Why? The reason top players are behind is because a lot of them just pick the same players as everyone else ahead of them. Also, you act like henderson is the keeper far ahead on points of every other keeper when he’s not

      Yikes! I need auba to go big tomorrow.

  16. Rash
    • 6 Years

    No sheffield defence and not going Salah captain has given me a huge preliminary red arrow.

    Need auba hatty tomorrow.

    Grealish owners, are you selling now the fixtures have taken a turn?

    2. tucaoneo

  20. tucaoneo

    Lund replacement. 4.6 max.
    I feel there's a case for Saints defender over SHU defender. Saints have 3 good-ish home fixtures in the next four. SHU will blank in 28.

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Looking at replacing Soy first

  21. Rhodes your boat

    This worth a -4?

    Dcl kelly/Lund
    to
    jimi lascelles/Fernandez

  22. AD2110
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    What transfers do you guys reckon I should make?

    A) Keep Vardy, Lund —> Robertson
    B) Vardy, Lund —> Auba, Gomez
    C) Vardy, Lund —> Aguero, Lascelles

    Ryan, (Button)
    TAA, Holgate, Baldock (Lund, Kelly)
    KDB, Salah, Son, Grealish (Dend)
    Vardy, Jimi, Ings

    Cheers!

    Will Lund drop in price tonight? Looking to move him to Enda.

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

      Could do the floodgates will open and people will be cashing in on his transfer value

    2. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      bought him at 4m ... so the next drop does change the sv

  24. Syd.

    1. Rhodes your boat

  25. Dacra

    Why is Shaw playing? No Kelly, Lund, Williams sucks.

    Think my ft this week needs to be defence..

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

      Because he is 1st choice

    2. Qaiss

  28. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    To get in the Top 10k have you just got to cap the most popular player every week? How boring

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Next week not that boring...

      1. have you seen cyan

        4 years, 1 month ago

        well it is, everyone will pick Salah again. I think Bobby might be the better choice but I will get seriously punished if im wrong. Its lame tbh

        1. Taffer
          • 10 Years

          it's how this game works. play another fantasy game like Sky if you don't like it.

  30. Top Lad Dakes.

    Lose DCL or Vardy first?

    Considering both upcoming fixtures, quality of player... and form

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      You get what you pay for with DCL
