Fantasy Premier League managers will have to entirely re-think how best to invest in Manchester United’s attack for the 2020/21 season.

The game-makers at FPL Towers have wielded their position-changing axe and reclassified no fewer than three key Red Devil assets for the new campaign.

Marcus Rashford (£9.5m) and Mason Greenwood (£7.5m) have been converted into midfielders to reflect their roles on the flanks of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s attacking midfield trio, while Anthony Martial (£9.0m) has moved into the forwards bracket.

Fernandes haul raises the bar for top 10k's most popular captain Salah

These changes are sure to impact squad selection for the new season, but could also affect the appeal of Bruno Fernandes (£10.5m) who has remained a midfielder.

To fully assess which of the Manchester United attackers appeal the most for 2020/21, we have pulled out some key statistics from Project Restart, the only time that Fernandes, Rashford, Greenwood and Martial started matches consistently at the same time.

    City going out

  11. el polako
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Right decision.

  12. SADIO SANÉ
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Didn't interfere 😆

  13. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    City don’t pay the premium that Untied do for VAR it seems.

    1. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Think they spent it on the privaledge of getting knocked on in the semis for next year's tournament...

  14. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Lol @ City defence.

    Why I won't be owning any.

  15. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Kind of the right decision, but silly

  16. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    VAR Pitchside Screen (c) fail

  17. KGFC
    • 9 Years

    Baldie needs an ice pack 😆

  18. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    City still got 4 subs but pep not using them

    1. Tinkermania
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Maybe they are no better than players on the pitch!

    2. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Absurd stuff.

    3. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Makes no sense whatsoever.

      Just like the 5-man defence starting line-up didn’t either.

  19. Klaren
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    I think it will be for City’s benefit if they get knocked out. With this defence, I can see the repeat of what happened to Barca last night.

  20. Moderately content penguin

    3 weeks to go

    One week of conditioning
    One week of internationals
    Couple of meaningless friendlies in the other week?

  21. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Spending millions on fullbacks when he should have been spending it on referees. Incompetent decision making from Pep.

  22. UnitedFan
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Correct decision.

  23. CloudSky
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Pep being found out as per usual.

  24. The Mighty Hippo

    5 years, 3 months ago

    I'm starting to love a good VAR controversy. It's becoming a key part of the game.

    1. CloudSky
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      What VAR controversy?

      1. The Mighty Hippo
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        The one that people are currently debating in commentary.

      2. sully29
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Any time VAR do/don't make a decision it's a "VAR controversy". Even when they're clearly right.

  25. SADIO SANÉ
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Deserves this for forcing Leroy out

    1. Moderately content penguin
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      🙂

    Knew Dembele would score the winner when he came on. Glad to see Bald Fraud go out of CL

  27. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

  29. Rainer

    City scoring here for sure.
