After Son Heung-min and Harry Kane failed to deliver in the early kick-off, there is a great opportunity for Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers without the Spurs premium pair to make ground.

More of the leading captaincy candidates feature in the 3pm kick-offs, with Bukayo Saka, Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes in action and all starting for their respective clubs.

Arsenal face Southampton at St Mary’s but they will have to do without Alexandre Lacazette this afternoon, as the Frenchman does not make the matchday squad.

He is one of two players replaced from the side that lost to Brighton, with Emile Smith Rowe dropping down to the bench. Nuno Tavares and Eddie Nketiah come into the side.

Ralph Hasenhuttl makes four changes to the Saints side beaten 6-0 by Chelsea, meanwhile.

Armando Broja, Yan Valery, Romain Perraud and Lyanco are all brought into the side as Adam Armstrong, Che Adams, Valentino Livramento and Mohammed Salisu drop to the bench.

Ralf Rangnick has gone for the jugular at Old Trafford, going without an orthodox defensive midfielder for the visit of unchanged Norwich City.

Jesse Lingard, Diogo Dalot, Paul Pogba and Anthony Elanga are all brought into the side at the expense of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Marcus Rashford, Nemanja Matic and the injured Fred.

There is less Fantasy interest in the match at Vicarage Road, where the managers of Watford and Brentford have made only one change apiece.

Emmanuel Dennis replaces the injured Cucho Hernandez for the hosts, while Pontus Jansson recovers from illness and takes Mathias ‘Zanka’ Jorgensen‘s spot at centre-half.

    Get Salah off so he's fresh for his hattrick vs Utd

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Mane at this rate

  2. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    ESR goal from a Martinelli assist would the stuff of dreams!

  3. Duke Silver ☑

    Any chance Salah gets dropped for United? Diaz and Mané are on fire.

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Nah might rest his form players for the easy game midweek.

    watching this from united, ole wasn't nearly as bad as rag

    1. Duke Silver ☑
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Spoiler: it's never been the manager's fault

    2. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      That squad needs tearing up and starting over

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Thankfully lots of big wages leaving in the summer. Will be a nice clear wage bill for Ten Hag to work with.

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Let's see what Ten Haag comes up with

    4. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Ten Haag is doomed

    5. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      The future of Man Utd under Erik ten Haag should be:

      De Gea
      Dalot Varane Maguire Shaw
      Rice* McTominay Fred
      Sancho Rashford Fernandes

      Subs: Henderson, AWB, Bailly, Lindelof, Telles, Van De Beek, Diallo, Elanga

      Sell / Release: Ronaldo, Pogba, Matic, Lingard, Mata, Jones, Cavani, Martial
      Buy: Rice

      Man Utd need to adopt the transfer policy of Liverpool. Which can be summarised as not signing any 'dickheads'.

    Well, didn't FH but used my BB this week Ramsdale, Weg, Telles & Mateta, so not awful yet..

      Salah will outscore my whole team

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years

      Yeah not the start I needed

    3. One More Hit
      • 7 Years

      FPL players in the mud

  9. ClassiX

  10. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Maguire should get his own reality show

    1. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Hahaha, that's awesome

    2. FredrikH
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Strikes again

  11. Cruyff's Eleven
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Maguire keeps finding new ways to be slightly comical

  12. Boomerang V
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    playing Dennis over Wegworst dgw paying off so far

  13. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Shearer talks absolute nonsense

  14. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Matic coming on for Lingard. Should push Bruno up...

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

      So he's Bruno's push-up bro?

      1. Miniboss
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        nice

  15. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    I was just celebrating the Livramento cs then realised he too has been benched =[

  16. The Train Driver
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Bruno finally pushed up

  17. El Presidente
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Salah another anonymous performance...

    1. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Overrated

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Don't worry. United next.

      1. Jock Grealish
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        united will win 1-0

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

          I don't think so...

    3. Sandy Ravage
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Mane, Jota, Mount, Zaha could outscore Salah till end of season

  18. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Man Utd will need to play De Gea, Telles, AWB, Dalot, Maguire, Lindelof, Matic and Bailly against Liverpool at this rate. And Man Utd will still probably concede 4.

    1. Jock Grealish
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      1-0 united all over it

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I'm surprised Rangnick isn't playing a back 3 today. That's usually the solution when you don't have a DM. Dalot and Telles can't defend either.

  19. Sandy Ravage
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    No point risking KDB

  20. EffPeeEll
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Fernanch fail//gunners are shoite ..dennis on the bench, but,

    we're 3-0 up .....blue moon turned blood red------------------

  21. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    At least the Telles assist means owners should avoid negative points this DGW

  22. EDUARDO DA SILVA
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Saka is just left footed aaron lennon

    1. Deulofail

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Time for the Glazers to spend some money!

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        They've spent £0.00 since they've bought the club. And taken out billions.

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Over a billion*

  26. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Still time for Fernandes goal, Ronaldo subbed and then 94th min penalty and Fernandes 15 pointer

  27. Ode
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Wow Forster

    1. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      He can't change his height

  28. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Oh as if that hasn’t gone in

  29. LarryDuff
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    That Thiago to Mane goal was absolutely slick. Thiagos chip perfectly weighted and Manes improvisation to side volley it wow

  30. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Forster kept it from being double digits vs Chelsea too.
