Another start for Greenwood as unchanged United take on Villa in Gameweek 34+ finale

The final fixture of Gameweek 34+ sees Aston Villa take on Manchester United.

Kick-off at Villa Park is at 20:15 BST.

There is little in the way of seismic team news, as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has named an unchanged starting XI for the fourth league game in a row.

Mason Greenwood (£4.7m) gets another start down the right flank, then, with Bruno Fernandes (£8.9m), Paul Pogba (£8.3m), Marcus Rashford (£9.1m) and Anthony Martial (£8.3m) supporting the budget FPL forward in attack.

There is only one change for Aston Villa, meanwhile, as Mbwana Samatta (£5.3m) comes into Dean Smith’s line-up to replace Keinan Davis (£4.3m).

Rashford, Martial and Greenwood are all owned between 46% and 51% of the top 10k, with Fernandes sitting in more than nine in ten Fantasy squads among this elite bunch.

Just under 20% of the top 10,000 FPL managers have captained the Portuguese midfielder.

Fernandes has averaged 8.9 points per match since he joined the Red Devils in January.


Aston Villa XI: Reina, Konsa, Hause, Mings, Taylor, Grealish, Luiz, McGinn, El Ghazi, Trezeguet, Samatta.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Matic, Pogba, Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford, Martial.

      Yep, there’s no way that’s given if it’s the other way round. Clear bias as usual

      I have Bruno as my capt and that was never a penalty, frankly it should have been a free kick to Villa

      VAR doesn't actively 'give' penalties, only changes decision if it's obviously wrong

    Got an important question, why is De Gea's beard so disgusting? How is it that long but still scraggly looking?

    1. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      The beard of a vegan.

      His beard is weird.

    That's rather a red for Bruno than a penalty.
    Absolutely shocking decision

  9. Chucky

    Ref has Triple captained Bruno...

  10. Cok3y5murf
    • 7 Years

    Salah should take notes from Bruno if he wants the golden boot

  11. Right In The Stanchion

    Man united get 25 penalties a season it seems. There is something seriously suspect happening

    • 10 Years

  16. Bartowski

    That is the most ridiculous penalty I've ever seen. Whats the defender supposed to do there???

    1. Bun Rab

    There was no way that should have been a penalty. But Bruno yet again making us consider the perma cap.

      It's a very sensible decision to make. He's almost guaranteed points.

    Son and Rash>Salah and Greenwood? -4

  19. Rainer

    Bruno retro ban for a stamp?

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      2nd penalty retroactively awarded.

  20. SuperMane Returns
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    If anything Bruno puts a stud into Konsa.Awful decision.

    Balls.

    And I'm clearly about 2 mins behind.

    That wasn't a penalty. Fernandes is so good, though.

  22. DycheDycheBaby

    VAR ruined my season. Thanks

  23. BobbyDoesNotLook

    I would like to propose a ban for anybody mentioning LiVARpool if the message does not contain a joke about amount of soft pens Utd has received this season.

    Ps. Luckily I finally bought Bruno. 😀

    Tottenham have had fewer shots on target in July than Tomas Souček.
